Weight loss is a huge challenge for many overweight individuals. But why do some people gain weight quickly when they eat sweets and meat, while others can eat and drink without gaining weight? And why do some people struggle to lose weight even when they starve themselves and exercise? It's not about a predisposition to gain weight or an inability to lose weight, but rather about the methods used. Below, I will introduce several weight loss remedies and teach you how to lose weight correctly.
Remedy 1: Eating raw radishes for effective weight loss
Radishes belong to the cruciferous vegetable family, and their roots, stems, leaves, and seeds can all be used medicinally. Eating half a raw radish every day for six months can not only help you lose weight, but also treat angina. This method does not require dieting or starving yourself, just eat until you are 90% full at each meal.
Remedy 2: Sichuan peppercorn powder for weight loss
Roast Sichuan peppercorns and grind them into powder. Every night between 12 am and 1 am (on an empty stomach), take a small spoonful of the powder, add a little sugar, and mix it with hot water. You will see results after two weeks.
Remedy 3: Hawthorn tea for weight loss
Wash high-quality hawthorn, slice it, and let it dry. Brew 15-20 slices in hot water and drink it as tea every day. You can also eat the hawthorn when you're not drinking tea at night. This method yields the best results when done consistently.
Remedy 4: Crispy tofu balls for weight loss
Tofu has low calories, and when combined with ingredients like radishes, it becomes a tasty and nutritious way to lose weight and lower blood sugar. Here's how to make it: 500g of tofu crumbs, a small bowl of flour, one small radish, and some chopped scallions and ginger. Mix everything in a bowl, add two beaten eggs, salt, chicken essence, and pepper. Stir well. Heat vegetable oil in a pan, shape the mixture into balls using a spoon, and fry them until they turn golden brown.
Remedy 5: Belly kneading for beauty and weight loss
Every night before bed, and in the morning before getting up, lie on your back with your legs bent or lie on your left or right side. Use your hands or one hand to grab your belly and knead it from left to right or right to left. After a few minutes, knead it from top to bottom or bottom to top. During this process, you may feel a sour, bloating, or slight pain in your abdomen, so adjust the pressure accordingly. After 15 minutes, massage your belly with your hands. After a few days, the discomfort will decrease or disappear, and it will gradually become a comfortable feeling. You can also ask a family member to help with this kneading. After two weeks, you will see significant beauty and weight loss results in your abdomen. Additionally, constipation will also improve. Adjust the duration of each kneading session as needed based on your body condition. For better results, do a few sit-ups and push-ups after each kneading session.
Remedy 6: Weight loss for the elderly
In the morning when you wake up and at night before bed, place your left hand under your belly and your right hand on top, and knead your belly 108 times in both directions. Then, use your index and ring fingers to press 108 times at a point 3.3cm below your navel. After that, knead your stomach 108 times up and down. Keep doing this regularly to effectively reduce your waist size.
