Do you want to lose weight but just can’t stop drinking soda or juice and tired of the plain taste of water?

Don’t be ashamed because you are not the only one who has these problems, but there are ways to mask that boring taste of water while still being healthy.

Detox water is one of the most popular tricks for weight loss because not only does it taste delicious, but it also helps the body get rid of the bad waste that are in your body.

According to loseweightbyeating.com, “Detox water is any infused water recipe that helps flush your system of toxins and improves your health.” Also, some detox water recipes such as the mango ginger water, have beneficial ingredients that help boost your metabolism. Mangos are not known to boost metabolism, but aid in digestion, and help boost your memory.

Detox water also contains zero calories, fills up your stomach so that you don’t feel as hungry, and you can put just about any fruit in it to add a sweet flavor and it’s easy to make.

All you have to do is add any fruit to a water bottle or pitcher, ice water (if you prefer ice), and place it in the fridge for an hour before you drink it. You can make this before you go to class and they even serve it at Dansbury Commons.

You can make a refreshing strawberry and watermelon detox water, an orange and grapefruit drink, or the famous slim down detox water which is lemon slices, lime slices, cucumbers, and grapefruit detox water “which is full of antioxidants and has many amazing health benefits, including protection against immune system deficiencies, cardiovascular disease, prenatal health problems, eye disease, and even skin wrinkling” as stated in loseweightbyeating.com.

Also, just by drinking the classic cucumber detox protects your brain and freshens your breath for you just in case your planning on seeing someone special later.

So, add some flavor to not just life but to your water as well for great results.
