Whether you’re trying to lose weight or you simply want to look and feel healthier, one of the best ways to rid your body of harmful toxins is to drink water. Just 6 to 8 glasses every day will help to keep you hydrated and keep your vital organs in their best condition. You don’t have to drink plain water, however. In fact, there are a number of things that you can add to your water that will not only boost the taste, they will help to flush those harmful toxins out of your body. That being said, it’s vital that you start introducing citrusy fruits such as lemons, limes, strawberry, kiwi, grapefruit and oranges into your daily diet. It is known as Detox water.
It works by cleansing the body of toxic materials, resulting in accelerated weight loss. The reason you lose weight so quickly is the severe caloric intake restriction over a short time frame. This dramatic calorie cut can result in a large drop in weight over a small period of time (a few weeks).
The people who want to want to lose a considerable amount of weight in a short time frame, such as going to a party or event. The diet can help you look your absolute best in just a few weeks.
It is rather surprising that while many people are aware of this detox plan, very few actually have a working understanding as to the goal of the Lemon Diet. For all intents and purposes, this cleansing program aims to rid the body of toxins and free radicals that destroy healthy cells and are responsible for a wide range of degenerative diseases.
Another great thing about the Lemonade Diet is that it requires very few ingredients- just four in fact. All you need to do the lemon cleanse diet are the following:
1.Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice (2 TBSP)
2.Genuine Grade B maple syrup (not artificially flavored)(2 TBSP)
3.Cayenne pepper (powder form) (1/10 Tea spoon)
4.Hot water (purified or spring, not distilled) (8 OZ)
The lemon juice acts as the main replacement for all your meals. Since this detox diet requires the elimination of solid food for a week or so (minimum), it is necessary to replace it with something else that would allow the body to function more or less normally.
The juice has to be freshly squeezed each time (daily dose).The maple syrup, apart from being the drink sweetener, it also helps eliminate toxins from the body. Keep in mind that you will need an organic and rich maple syrup. There are so many artificially flavored syrups on the market today that customers have to be very discerning shoppers especially when they need very specific ingredients.
1.You should drink 6-12 glasses of lemonade each day.
2.Drink when you feel hungry.
3.Drink it as soon as you make it to prevent the pepper from “steeping” and making the drink too spicy.
4.Try sea salts or herbal tea. You can also mix 1 TSP of unrefined non-iodized sea salt mixed in 30 OZ of water to flush. Try them twice a day.

Recently, many health specialists have given glowing reviews of the African Mango dietary supplement. In fact, the African Mango has been referred to as the World’s most powerful weight loss ingredient. Dr. Oz, the popular television health specialist was quoted as saying that the African Mango is a ‘miracle in your medicine cabinet that will help you lose 10 pounds! even for those who are “too busy to diet or exercise.” If it’s truly this amazing, let us find out more about it, shall we?
Identified scientifically as Irvingia gabonensis, the African Mango can be found in its native tropical rain forest of the African coast on the tops of the Irvingia gabonensis trees, which can be over 100 feet tall! The fruit is found amongst the dense, green leaves at the crown. The African Mango is known as the “bush mango” or “wild mango”.
This weight loss supplement, made from extracts of the seeds of the mango is being praised for its ability to help reduce body fat, weight, and even cholesterol and leptin levels in overweight subjects, according to a recent study published in the journal Lipids in Health and Disease.”
The African Mango fruit has been famously used in traditional medicines of the area. African mango was a staple for many tribes in Cameroon and Nigeria, and one characteristic of these tribes is their slim build, as well as low incidence of cardiovascular disease, says Julius Oben, PhD., one of the primary researchers in the study and an associate professor of nutritional biochemistry at University of Yaoundé in Camero
Scientists have recently studied it in-depth to learn more about the fruit’s capabilities. The seeds are very rich in healthy proteins and fats. The fruit has many nutrients and vitamins, like Vitamin B (for a healthy metabolism).
A study was done in 2005 to test the weight-loss effects of the African Mango extract. The double-blind placebo-controlled study compared a group of adults taking the extract to those who did not. Scientists saw a significant drop in size of the African Mango users. They lost weight and became noticeably slimmer through their waists and hips. The scientists also recorded healthier blood pressure results amongst the African Mango users in the trial. Many other studies and personal users continue to testify today of the African Mango diet!
How Does it Work?
It seems unbelievable that a common, delicious fruit can help you lose weight. The benefits actually come from the extract from within the seed of the mango. The small seeds have plenty of healthy protein, fats, and fiber. Protein is vital for producing energy and muscle growth in the body. Healthy fats (meaning mono- and polyunsaturated fats) keeps your heart healthy and even trims your waist! Lastly, fiber is important in lowering cholesterol and regulating blood sugar. The benefits you gain from something so simple as a mango seed are incredible.
Additionally, the African Mango contains leptin, which is considered a satisfaction hormone. Leptin is a protein hormone that influences metabolism, weight gain/weight loss, and immunity. It also plays a part in appetite control – hence the term “satisfaction”. High levels of leptin send signals to the brain of fullness, so you are less prone to giving into cravings and overeating. Appetite resistance is the #1 way to see immediate weight loss and the African Mango gives you an extra dose of leptin hormones to make it possible.
Who Can Benefit From the African Mango Diet?
Dr. Oz specifically mentioned the African Mango as a “breakthrough fix for women over 40” because that demographic particularly struggles with weight loss. However, the African Mango can be effective for adults of any age, male or female. Regardless of how much weight you are looking to lose, whether it be 5 pounds or 25, the African Mango will help get you there. It is not intended for persons under the age of 18. Do not take if you’re pregnant or nursing. Speak with a doctor prior to taking this supplement if you are at risk or are being treated for heart disease, high blood pressure, or any other diagnosed health condition.
Things to look out for when purchasing an African Mango weight loss supplement:
The name “African Mango” or “Irvingia gabonensis” is clearly labeled and free of misspellings.
The recommended dosage is 150 mg; twice daily.
The supplement should not contain any artificial ingredients, binders or fillers.

Researchers are finding that mangos that are eaten with the skin left on can actually aid the battle of excess fat. While this may be good news for mango lovers, there is still a warning.
Eating the wrong variety of mangos can have the opposite effect and cause weight gain.
University of Queensland scientists have found the skins of the common Irwin and Nam Doc Mai varieties contain compounds that inhibit the formation of human fat cells.
The skin of the Kensington Pride mango, however, has compounds that promote fat cell growth.
Professor Mike Gidley says lab tests involved exposing human fat cells to extracts from the skin and flesh of three varieties.
He said there was a long way to go, but the findings opened up the possibility of a supplement that could help fight obesity.
“The next stage is to identify the useful molecules in the peel that inhibited fat cell formation,” Prof Gidley told AAP.

Everyone wants to have a healthy body with a healthy weight. There are many benefits in reducing your weight if you’re overweight. Many diseases and even cancers are associated with being overweight.
Though lots of people go on diets, there are often big mistakes that most people do when they are trying to reduce their weight. We will discuss 3 major mistakes that are made. They include:
People losing weight often want to the reduce the number of calories entering their bodies. Calorie reduction means a reduction in the amount of food intake. This causes the body to go into a state of hunger so that it slows down your body metabolism and when your metabolism slows, the body tends to store fat. So do not be surprised, even if you eat less, if your weight hasn’t reduced. If you stop the diet program without maintaining the calorie control diet, then your weight will actually increase.
The best solution is to eat regularly so that your body does not go into a state of hunger. Eat as needed, and increase your consumption of vegetables and fruits. This will help you reduce weight and also increase the performance of your body energy wise.
More than often, people think that fatty foods are the main source of being overweight. This is not always true. Trying to lose weight by cutting all fats from your diet can actually harm your body. This is because fat is one of the compounds needed by the human body. Be warned that it’s certain types of fat that are actually healthy for you. There are some types of fat that you can only can get from eating certain types of food.
The ideal weight loss program should allow you to still eat fatty foods, especially foods that contain unsaturated fats. Avoid foods that contain saturated fats such as meat, butter or fried foods. Make sure everyday that you consume foods containing monounsaturated fats such as fish oil, avocados, olive oil and some types of nuts that can help you to maintain your weight loss program.
Most people who go on a diet just focus on reducing their food intake. We often eat less and then the body goes into a state of hunger. If this happens, it will slow down your body metabolism so that your body doesn’t lose fat. And to lose weight, all you have to do is to burn fat by increasing your body metabolism in the body which can be achieved by way of regular exercise.
Put in place a regular exercise program. Exercise with high intensity that will increase your heart rate will burn more calories. In addition, high-intensity exercise will accelerate the metabolism in your body, and it will burn off a whole lot of fat so that it helps you to lose lots of weight.
