Winter weight loss counterattack: 3 morning habits+2 nighttime taboos, accelerated metabolism without rebound

Is it too difficult to lose weight in winter? In the morning, the bed attracts you like a magnet, and at night, hot pot milk tea waves wildly? Don't give up in a hurry! In fact, winter is the golden period for quietly losing weight - the body needs to consume more energy to maintain body temperature in a low-temperature environment, and the basal metabolic rate is higher than in summer About 10% of the sky is high. Seizing this natural advantage, simply adjusting habits at a few key time points can keep fat burning continuously for 24 hours.

1. Three morning habits activate metabolism throughout the day

1. Step barefoot on the ground for 30 seconds: Immediately open the curtains after getting up and touch the cold ground (wooden or floor tiles are acceptable) with bare feet. Sudden cold stimulation can instantly awaken the sympathetic nervous system, activating brown adipose tissue to produce heat, which is equivalent to pressing the "fat burning switch" on the body. Note that patients with diabetes should use this method with caution.

2. Drink warm water with cinnamon powder: Mix 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon powder (not cinnamon powder) with 300ml of warm water and drink it on an empty stomach in small sips. The methyl hydroxychalcone polymer in cinnamon can improve insulin sensitivity, and experiments have shown that continuous consumption can reduce waist circumference by 2-3cm. If you dislike the cinnamon flavor, switching to 2 slices of fresh ginger can also have a similar effect.

3. Jump and touch the ceiling before breakfast: Wear thick socks and jump and touch the ceiling in place 10 times. This action can quickly raise the core body temperature, and the food heat effect (energy consumed by digestion and absorption) will increase by 15% during subsequent eating. Too late to do a full set of exercises? Matting your toes while brushing can also achieve a 30% effect.

2 Nighttime Taboos to Keep Weight Loss Results

1. Do not eat fruits 3 hours before bedtime: Winter fruits such as winter dates and sugar oranges have amazing sugar content, and fructose will be preferentially converted into liver fat at night. If you are really hungry, replace it with 10 original almonds or 1 small piece of 70% or more dark chocolate. The arginine and cocoa polyphenols in it can actually promote the secretion of growth hormone.

2. Foot soaking water temperature should not exceed 42 ℃: Many people like to scald their feet until their skin turns red, but in fact, overheating can cause excessive vasodilation, which can actually affect nighttime fat breakdown. The correct approach is to soak in 38-40 ℃ warm water for 15 minutes, with the water level just above the ankle. Adding a small handful of coarse salt can better alleviate edema.

The best thing about this method is that you don't need to diet deliberately at all. Remember to eat more warm grains Congee and stew during the day. When you are warm, you will automatically reduce your thirst for high calorie food Hope. Can you give it a try starting tomorrow morning? Maybe after this winter, you'll be busy changing the size of your spring clothes!
