Everyone wants to lose weight, but no one wants to truly work for it. Whether it being time restraints, monetary issues, or just lack of motivation, life can make achieving your body goals can be a bit difficult. What if we told you one sure fire way to trim your waistline that requires less than 20 minutes out of your week? Would you do it? How about if this new tactic could also save you money?
Do we have your attention? Here is the ultimate LIFE HACK that will not only trim your waistline, but also improve many digestive functions.
Eliminate soda and juice from your diet and replace them with infused waters. Water is your body's source of life. Proper hydration not only improves health, but aids in the aging process. Infused or detox water is beneficial for many reasons, one being that it makes the act of drinking water less painful! It is both aesthetically and tastefully pleasing. Detox water provides the great taste without the calories or high fructose corn-starch (sugar) that soda brings.Whats the secret? The fruits added work as antioxidants that speeds up metabolism, provides an added boost of energy, and aids in digestion.
The following detox waters can be prepared in a pitcher and refilled for up to three days, or fruit can be placed in individual water bottles. For optimum results, fully slice fruit and let water sit for at least two hours before consuming.
1) Master Cleanse
1 Cucumber, 1 Lemon, 1 Orange, 1 Lime, Optional 10-15 Mint Leaves
2) Grand Master Cleanse* (Makes a pitcher only)
1 Lemon, 1 Cup of Organic Maple Syrup, 2 Tablespoons of Cayenne Pepper, 2 Cups of Bragg's Organic Apple Cider Vinegar

This is exactly what I needed! Trying these detoxes asap!
So I’ve been off my game with drinking water and this is a really great alternative. I’ve successfully cut out pop, now all I have to do it cut out juice, which is so hard. But with the choices and where to get everything this makes that much easier. Thanks!!!
