Dr. Oz Slim Down Plan

Tip 1: Sip Smart 

Before every meal, try Dr. Oz’s secret swimsuit slimdown drink of a choice – a mixture of grapefruit juice and apple cider vinegar.

 Mix:

- 1c. grapefruit juice

- 2 tbsp. apple cider vinegar

- 1 tsp. honey (optional, for sweeter taste)

In fact, a study showed that people with adequate vitamin C levels burned 30% more fat during moderate exercise than individuals low in vitamin C. Meanwhile, the acetic acid contained in the vinegar may switch on genes your body needs to pump out fat-burning proteins. If you find the drink a bit tart, add 1 teaspoon of honey, which only adds 20 calories, for sweetness. Drink Dr. Oz’s secret slimdown drink before every meal and you’ll literally burn away your fat while enjoying a citrusy delight.

 Tip 2: Slimdown Salad

For a lunch that tastes great and is packed with fat-fighting nutrients, try a salad of dandelion greens, watermelon, and parsley.

- Washed, dried, and torn 1 bunch of  dandelion greens into bite-sized pieces

- 1 c. of cubed watermelon

- Top with finely chopped, fresh parsley.

Healthy Dressing: 

- 2 tsp. olive oil

- 1/2 tsp. lemon juice

- dash of salt/pepper (optional)

Dandelion greens stimulate your body’s bile flow, which is vital for breaking down fats. They also act as a mild diuretic, allowing you to reduce water weight. Additionally, the salad’s watermelon is rich in the amino acid arginine, which might promote weight loss, according to a new animal study. Researchers supplemented the diets of obese mice with arginine over 3 months and found that doing so decreased their body fat gains by a whopping 64%. Finally, the parsley will add a subtle layer of flavor to your salad, while simultaneously removing water from your body and reducing bloat.
