Fight Belly Fat and Inflammation with Turmeric Coffee Creamer

It seems that these days coffee flavors are all the rage, with millions of Americans who are enjoying in their yumminess on a daily basis. However, the problem with regular coffee flavors which can be purchased at coffee shops is that they are often loaded with artificial ingredients and highly processed sweeteners.

The recipe presented in this article combines the super-healthy turmeric and soothing lavender to create a coffee creamer which is both tasty and healthy.  The third ingredient- coconut milk- adds versatility to this recipe and makes the combination creamy, thick, and combined to the extent of perfection.  Ultimately, honey adds natural sweetness and makes this creamer ‘to die for’.

How It Works?

Turmeric and coconut milk are key ingredients in this recipe, both of which are known as potent weight loss stimulators.  As mentioned earlier, lavender has a soothing effect while honey is added to provide a natural sweetness in the recipe and make it tastier!

Turmeric:  Turmeric stimulates fat burning through a process called thermogenesis. It has been scientifically shown that it also burns fat through angiogenesis – new blood vessel growth and reducing fat content in cells.  Besides, it also promotes liver detoxification and lowers cholesterol levels, both of which are needed for a healthy weight loss process.  Not mention, turmeric is packed with anti-inflammatory properties, too.

Coconut Milk:  Many studies done on coconut milk suggest that it really helps blast belly fat.  Although it doesn’t work as miracle weight-loss drink, swapping regular milk for coconut milk helps you cut calories and burn belly fat without feeling deprived.
