Also called turmeric latte, this is a great alternative to coffee in the evening. Its most important element is turmeric. You must have heard that it has an anti-inflammatory effect. But it has another very important quality: as studies have shown, curcumin inhibits the growth of fatty tissue and helps maintain optimal blood sugar levels.

Making turmeric latte is easy: add a teaspoon of turmeric to a glass of hot milk. Do you prefer sweet drinks? Use a sweetener like stevia. Want something more refined? There are many “golden milk” recipes on the web with a variety of spice combinations – cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and cardamom.

Kefir is one of the best sources of probiotics that normalize the intestinal microflora. Recently, scientists are increasingly saying that the “correct” balance of microorganisms in the gastrointestinal tract can affect body weight. Studies show that certain strains of bacteria interfere with fat absorption. Thanks to this, people who took probiotics continuously for 12 weeks were able to lose 8.5% of their weight!

Carob is another drink that has a beneficial effect on the state of the intestines. It is rich in tannins which destroy toxins. Due to this, the number of beneficial bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract increases. Carob tastes like cocoa – just add it to hot milk and drink it!

Do you think protein shakes are just for athletes? Nothing like! Soy is very high in the amino acid tryptophan, which helps reduce cortisol levels that lead to weight gain. In addition, a protein shake perfectly saturates, but does not overload the stomach too much, and therefore you will sleep much better.

It can and should be drunk not only at night. It turns out that mint flavor has unique properties: it suppresses the appetite. A study published in the Journal of Neurological and Orthopedic Medicine found that people who sniffed mint every two hours lost an average of two kilograms of weight per month.
