If you are trying to lose weight, you are probably aware that there is no quick fix. It calls for patience, hard work, and a strict diet. A few healthy additions to the diet, on the other hand, may help speed up the process. If you look around and explore, you will find a variety of weight-loss-friendly detox drinks and teas. For instance, turmeric tea, aloe vera water, lemon water and more. All these drinks are just perfect to add to the diet. But if you want something different, we've got a tea recipe for you that uses chia seeds. There are numerous prized ingredients in nature that provide tremendous health benefits. Chia seeds are an example. According to the book "Healing Foods" by DK Publishing House, the fibre present in chia seeds helps stabilise blood sugar levels and regulate bowel movements, thereby promoting gut health and the digestive system. Both of which are essential for maintaining a healthy weight.
