5 Bedtime Drinks to Contribute to Weight Loss
For a long time, there was a myth that anything we eat or drink before bedtime would add extra calories and increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes. But recent studies have proven that consuming specific foods before going to bed can positively impact the body and would help to reduce weight. Here are six bedtime beverages to try:
Greek Yogurt Protein Shake
Rich in casein protein, if this shake is consumed before cuddling at the bed, it increases muscle protein synthesis and metabolic rate throughout the night without influencing lipolysis. Apart from tasty, Greek yogurt ensures a steady delivery of amino acids for muscle recovery. The more muscle you have, the more calories your body burns.
Chamomile Tea
A mug of warm chamomile tea modulates carbohydrate digestion and sugar absorption and improves glucose control and weight loss. It is a perfect solution for an upset stomach. By increasing the glycine levels in the body, relaxes the nerves, and makes you sleep well at night.
Red Wine
Red wine consists of resveratrol, an antioxidant produced from red grapes, blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, and apples. Resveratrol can convert white fat into beige fat at high rates, preventing obesity. A glass of red wine before sleep is a better way to burn energy.
Kefir
Prepared from dairy milk, kefir is a cultured, fermented drink rich in probiotic bacteria and it’s a good source of calcium. Though it is similar to yogurt with a tart, tangy taste, kefir has a thinner consistency than yogurt. It is more like a drink. Kefir modulates gut microbiota, which inhibits lipogenesis and promotes fatty acid oxidation, ultimately cutting down bodyweight and preventing obesity.
Soy Protein Shake
Soy shake is a vegan supplement for yogurt and kefir with heart-healthy benefits. Just like other types of protein, soy shake reduces body fat and positively work on cardiometabolic risk, without loss of physical function or strength. It is also rich in amino acids and consuming at night will make you fall asleep very fast.
Start consuming these beverages before going to bed and see the potential changes that happen to the body.
