Drinking coffee to lose weight, are you right?

Recently, a new coffee lover left me a message in the comment area saying that she doesn’t lose weight by drinking coffee, and drinking too much makes her fat? For this, I just want to say that coffee can help lose weight, but you have to drink it right. Without further ado, read on!

There are thousands of ingredients in coffee, but one of them is called chlorogenic acid. A large number of studies have shown that chlorogenic acid can ease the absorption of sugar, and to a certain extent prevent sugar from turning into fat to store energy, and can also promote the decomposition of fat. Not only that, coffee can also improve metabolism. When the energy we consume in a day is greater than the energy we take in, we can naturally achieve the goal of losing weight.

Coffee beans contain about 13% protein, which is the main source of coffee calories. Because coffee beans are rich in protein, but the protein will not dissolve during the brewing process, so no matter how much coffee you drink, the intake of ingredients is still limited. On the contrary, the protein content of coffee grounds is very high and worth recycling.

Caffeine can promote metabolism in the human body and increase the body's potential to burn calories.

Take a cup of black coffee, for example.

Black coffee has very little calories. A 100-gram cup of black coffee has only 2.55 kilojoules of calories. Drinking a cup of black coffee after a meal can effectively break down fat. In addition, black coffee has a more diuretic effect. For women, black coffee also has a beauty effect. During the high-temperature coffee brewing process, an antioxidant compound is produced, which helps to fight cancer, anti-aging, and even prevent cardiovascular diseases, comparable to fruits and vegetables.

Please note that pure coffee without milk or sugar is the best way to lose weight.

Important things should be said three times.

Don't add sugar: If you are not used to the bitter taste of coffee, you can add a little milk, but never add sugar, because sugar will hinder the decomposition of fat.

Hot coffee is more effective than iced coffee: Hot coffee can help you burn calories faster.

Lightly roasted coffee is the most effective: coffee roasted at a high temperature has a strong taste, but the caffeine content is relatively low, which is not conducive to weight loss. American coffee with a lighter taste is more conducive to weight loss.

Not only is drinking coffee effective for losing weight, you can also use coffee grounds for massage to lose weight.

Massaging with brewed coffee grounds can not only make your skin smooth, but also have a firming and beautifying effect.

If you use coffee grounds to make coffee liquid, and apply it to the lower abdomen, thighs, waist and hips where fat is easily accumulated, it will move along the direction of blood and lymph flow toward the heart, and it can also achieve the effect of breaking down fat for weight loss. If you massage it while bathing, the effect will be even better.

There is also a weight loss method of exercising after drinking coffee.

Because the concentration of fatty acids in the blood will increase 30-40 minutes after drinking coffee, if combined with moderate exercise, the fatty acids can be converted into heat energy and effectively burn fat.

For example, you can walk briskly for 10-15 minutes, or take the stairs to go back to the office or home instead of taking the elevator; you can also do some small movements on the spot, such as twisting and stretching your upper body, standing on tiptoe, and tightening your abdomen.
