Bitter melon has always been recognized as the best food for clearing heat and reducing fire. In fact, bitter melon also has a good effect on weight loss and slimming. It can be made into bitter melon juice and also has a certain effect on lowering blood pressure and blood lipids. However, it should be noted that bitter melon is a cold food and should not be eaten excessively.

First, the bitter melon weight loss method

1. Drink bitter melon juice. If you can’t stand it, you can add a kiwi or a tomato and blend it with bitter melon to drink. However, do not add any sweet fruits, as sugar can reduce the stability of the bitter melon weight loss component. Additionally, the residue of the bitter melon after juicing should also be eaten.

2. Fiber is divided into soluble and insoluble types. Most of the fiber in the residue of bitter melon is insoluble. Fiber can promote intestinal peristalsis and the decomposition of fat in the intestines. If your stomach is not very healthy, you can eat no more than 2 bitter melons a day, drinking one portion of bitter melon juice before lunch and dinner. If your stomach is healthy, you can eat up to 4 bitter melons a day, but not more than 4.

3. Usually, you need 4 bitter melons to make bitter melon juice. You can drink it once for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and then drink it again three hours before going to bed every night. Don’t drink it right before going to sleep; it’s a total of 4 cups a day. The most obvious reaction after the body absorbs bitter melon juice is thirst. If you don’t want to get up in the middle of the night to drink water, then don’t drink it before going to bed.

Second, precautions for the bitter melon weight loss method

1. Since bitter melon is a cold food, it should not be eaten in large quantities, and tea should not be consumed during the process of drinking bitter melon juice for weight loss, whether it’s black tea or green tea. Only drink plain water. Because the tannins in tea can harm the stomach that feels tired after drinking bitter melon.

2. Green bitter melon is the most effective choice. Black bitter melon does not have the same weight loss effect as green bitter melon and is also expensive. Although black bitter melon is not bitter, it is not recommended to use it for weight loss. Additionally, do not eat bitter melon that has turned yellow.

3. Drinking bitter melon juice for weight loss is similar to other weight loss foods in that it first helps to eliminate edema and clear the fat in the intestines. Although the effect is not obvious at the beginning, don’t give up. As long as you persist, you will find that the fat in your body is decreasing day by day.
