Apple And Cinnamon Detox Water To Accelerate Metabolism
We can take advantage of natural and homemade drinks, such as apple and cinnamon water, to start reducing the consumption of industrial drinks, which are not beneficial for the Health.
The apple and cinnamon detox water is proposed as a drink to accelerate the metabolism and promote weight loss.
Now, it is important to bear in mind that these types of drinks are not a substitute for main meals, but rather an option to hydrate ourselves, in a healthy way. In this way we avoid falling into the consumption of industrial beverages, which contain large amounts of sugar and sodium.
We can flavor the water with some natural ingredients (such as lemon, cinnamon, orange, among others) and, incidentally, provide it with extra nutrients . The mixture of apple and cinnamon is an option, but there are many other combinations that we can try.
What would be the benefits of this detox water ?
This type of detox drink is a form of flavored water, in which two specific ingredients are chosen: cinnamon and apple.
- Cinnamon is a spice in common use, very aromatic, which is pleasant for the palate. It combines very well with foods such as apples and can even enhance its sweetness, leading us to believe that we consume a drink with a sweeter taste than it may actually have.
- The apple is a fruit that also has a good aroma and a slightly sweet taste. If the red variety is chosen, this will be even more noticeable.
- Both ingredients have components that are beneficial to health (vitamins, minerals, antioxidants).
The mixture of red apple and cinnamon is sweet, perfect for those with a sweet tooth. On the other hand, the mixture of green apple and lemon, for example, is perfect for those who like the most refreshing drinks.
Whether we choose the royal gala, fuji, red delicious, autumn glory or another variety , the truth is that as long as the fruit is red, the drink will be sweet.
Contributions of the apple
Apples, in all their varieties, in addition to being enjoyed naturally, can be incorporated into hundreds of recipes, both raw and cooked.
When preparing detox water , it is best to opt for the red variety, since it tends to provide a sweeter taste. On the other hand, if we prefer a more acidic touch, the best option will be green. In any case, we must bear in mind that, in general, apple drinks tend to be sweet.
The apple is a fruit that is a good source of fiber, which supports digestion, prevents constipation and helps ensure proper absorption of nutrients.
According to data from the Spanish Nutrition Foundation (FEN), this fruit contains a certain amount of potassium and vitamin C, as well as flavonoids, procyanidins and organic acids.
On the other hand, according to LiveScience experts, this fruit also contains (although to a lesser extent) vitamin A, calcium, and iron.
By containing vitamins A and C, which have an antioxidant effect, it is considered that the consumption of this fruit could help minimize the effect of free radicals.
