When it comes to weight loss, substituting healthy
drinks for those sugary sodas and energy drinks can have a drastic
effect on your weight loss goals. Most people don't realize how many
calories they take in each day from drinks alone. For instance, a caffe
mocha with all the fixings can pack in over 500 calories! So as you can
see, switching to healthier drinks and ditching the "junk drinks" will
greatly reduce your daily caloric intake and in return start shredding
those unwanted pounds. Check out this list of the top 10 healthy drinks
that can help you reach your weight loss goals...
1. Vegetable Juice
Vegetable juice is every bit as nutritious as fruit juice but with
about half the calories. Most vegetable juices are also rich in fiber
which can help make you feel full and in turn eat less.
2. Fruit Smoothies
Mix-up a delicious batch of smoothies using your favorite fruits and a
whipped cream, honey, or other sweeteners that can add hundreds of
calories-in other words, don't eat smoothies from your favorite local
restaurant or ice-cream shop and think that you're eating healthy
because you're not!
3. Fruit Juice
Fruit juices have loads of vitamins and nutrients, but it's important
to make sure that there's no added sugar...sorry Sunny D and Tang! Also
remember that the pulpier, the better. Fruit juice with lots of pulp
contains added fiber that can help you feel more full and eat less.
4.Black Coffee
Coffee has plenty of positive health benefits and best of all, it
contains no calories! Black coffee is rich in antioxidants that can
help boost your mood, improve concentration, reduce the risk of
diabetes and cancer, as well as many other benefits. Keep you coffee
consumption at 4 cups or less per day-as with anything, moderation is
the key.
5.Green Tea
Like coffee, green tea has a plethora of positive health benefits and
contains plenty of helpful antioxidants. It also helps to boost your
metabolism if consumed on a daily basis, which can help to speed up
your body's fat-burning mechanism-as much as a 40% increase in some
cases!
6. Milk
The calcium in Low-fat or skim milk can help contribute to the
breakdown of fat cells in your body. Too much milk, though, can pack on
the pounds because it does contain a lot of calories, so stick to 3-4
small servings per day in order to benefit from milk's weight loss
benefits.
7. Protein Drinks
Protein drinks, such as from powders or pre-mixed varieties, can have a
great effect on your weight loss regiment, because lean muscle is very
efficient at burning fat. In other words, the more muscle you have, the
more fat your body will burn. Protein is a big part of this equation,
because it's the building block of muscle growth.
8. Fiber Drinks
There's many fiber-rich drinks on the market today, and they can be a
great tool for any weight loss program. Fiber helps to make your body
feel full, and it also has plenty of other positive health benefits as
well.
9. Apple Cider Vinegar
Sounds a little gross, and it may be too gross for some people to try,
but apple cider vinegar is a sort-of "old school" health drink that was
very popular in the '70s as a weight loss tool. Although there aren't
any scientific studies that actually prove it works, many fitness gurus
swear by it, saying that it greatly boosts your metabolism if taken
regularly...Hey, it's worth a try!
10. Ice Water
Probably the most powerful weight loss tool at your disposal, and also
the cheapest, is plain old ice water (who'd a thunk!). Drinking plenty
of water is great for your body because it helps you feel full, boosts
your metabolism, and it contains zero calories. Furthermore, some
studies suggest that drinking just two extra glasses of ice water per
day can help boost your metabolism by as much as 30%. This equates to
about 5 pounds of fat loss per year!
