Here are five ways to detox from the holidays:
Make green tea your go-to beverage
Let one of your new year’s resolutions’ be to regularly drink green tea. It has beneficial antioxidant properties and is an excellent fat burner. In a recent study conducted, a participant who drank green tea along with regular exercise lost more fat than those who exercised with no green tea consumption, over a span of 12 weeks.
Apples, legumes, fiber & protein every day will keep the doctor away
The fiber and protein help keep your blood sugar levels intact and prevent overeating. Apple, being a superfood, is a powerful antioxidant and rich in vitamins B-6 and C, keeping your cholesterol levels in check and your risk of heart diseases low.
Work, work, workout!
We hope you got a Fitbit this Christmas! If not, it’s never too late to invest in one. Make sure you hit the 10,000 steps mark on a daily to accelerate your active lifestyle.

Make smart lifestyle changes
Let’s get straight to what’s important.
Plan your workouts to be the first thing you do in the morning as you will burn more fat on an empty stomach. Don’t eat after the sun sets for better digestion. Take hot showers before bed for better sleep. Speaking of sleep, make sure you get the full 7 to 8 hours every night. Research shows that losing 30 minutes of sleep increases your chances of developing obesity by 17%!
