Weight-Loss Drink #3: Ginger Tea

Because it: Shrinks your belly

Ginger is a well-known digestive aid, and one secret to a flat belly is to start the morning with a cup of ginger tea to “activate” the digestive system. It is thought to help the vata and pitta doshas—the digestive and circulatory centers in the body, according to Ayurveda—thereby reducing bloating and warming up the circulatory system.

How to Enjoy It: To get the most powerful benefits, simply grate ¼- ½ tsp of raw ginger into your tea kettle.  Boil for 3-5 minutes and then pour into a cup with your favorite tea bag. Add a teaspoon of honey for a sweeter taste.
