Spice infused or Infused water with kitchen ingredients for weight loss

Hi everyone,
How are you all? We all know the importance of water for our skin, hair and overall health. We have been reminded infinite number of times the importance of drinking enough water. But drinking plain water can be boring and even nauseating for some(me:-D). But the same old plain water can be made interesting by adding few of our kitchen ingredients. Scroll to know more about this.





Lemon honey water
Almost all of us are very much familiar with lemon honey water. Drinking a glass of warm water with juice of a lemon and a teaspoon of honey works wonders for our body. It aids in combating free radicals, weight loss, digestion, fresh breath, clean urinary tract and what not. All you need to do is squeeze the juice from a lemon, add it to a glass of luke warm water with a teaspoon of honey. Following it religiously helps in weight loss, reduces bloating. 

Ginger,lemon and honey water
Ginger is an amazing ingredient in kitchen that enhances the flavor of the food. It also aids in weight loss. Just pound an inch of ginger, add it to a cup of water and boil it for a minute or two. Then let it cool down for a few minutes. When it is still warm and not too hot add desirable amount of honey, lemon juice and drink it.  Regularly drinking this concoction helps you regulate your body weight and dissolves the fat deposition too. It also enhances your digestive system and regulates your monthly cycle. It also relieves the cramps during menstruation. 


Cinnamon and honey water
Cinnamon is one of the flavorful spices that we love adding to our dishes. Drinking cinnamon and honey mixed in warm water not only helps in weight loss but also prevents heart diseases, relieve pain and stiffness in joints for arthritis patients, destroys bacteria in urinary system, relieves tooth pain  boosts our immune system and helps clearing sinuses. Above all it reduces bad cholesterol too. What else do we need?
You can also use the cinnamon and honey mix as a spread for the toast. Sprinkle cinnamon powder on smoothies and salads and even coffee.


Cumin water
Cumin powder helps in weight loss? Surprised? Me too. When I first read the cumin can help us regulate our body weight and also shed few kilos I was surprised. It helps us bring down our body temperature and keeps our body cool. You can add cumin powder to a glass of warm water and drink first thing in the morning. If not, mix a teaspoon of cumin seeds in two glasses of water and leave it overnight. Next morning chew those cumin seeds and gulp down the water. You can add honey to it to enhance the taste.



Fenugreek water
We all are familiar with the beauty benefits of fenugreek for our hair and skin. Drinking fenugreek seeds with water can bring down your body temperature on a hot summer day and also relieves the period cramps. Soak one teaspoon fenugreek seeds in a jug of water overnight and drink it the following day.


Fennel water
Like cumin water, fennel seeds also help us keep our body cool. Add fennel seed powder to a glass of water or soak the fennel seeds in water overnight and drink the following day.

Some common points:
All the above mentioned ingredients not only helps us in weight loss but also keeps our body cool, flushes toxins and free radicals from our body. It enhances our digestive system for better digestion, maintains the urinary tract by destroying the bacteria. These spices are all filled with much more health benefits. I hope this article is helpful to you. Please let me know in the comments.
