Lazy Way to Lose Weight: Cinnamon, Honey, and Water

This is an extremely lazy way to lose weight. It burns hundreds of calories even if you are just sitting down on your computer and doing nothing. It also increases gently boosts your metabolism which aids in weight loss.

Ingredients:
2 tsp Honey
1 tsp Cinnamon
1 cup Water

Directions:
1) Use 1 part of cinnamon to 2 parts of raw honey. 1 tsp cinnamon to 2 tsp honey is recommended.
2) Boil 1 cup of water.
3) Pour the boiling water on cinnamon. Cover it and let it steep until it is warm enough to drink.
4) Add honey when the water is cool/warm. Never add honey when it is hot as the heat will destroy the enzymes and other nutrients in the raw honey.
5) Drink half before going to bed. The other half should be covered and refrigerated, drink it the following morning. Do not re-heat.

Do not add any flavors in this mixture as this recipe only works if you drink it on empty stomach.

This drink works great with our Organic, Non-GMO, Plant-Based Products.

    I saw you put the health risk for the cinnamon. You need to choose wisely on your honey. Do the research! Unrefined honey contains an abundance of various antioxidants that can have major implications for your health. Those antioxidants… though you believe they are good for you, it’s also eating away at the good bacteria inside you as well as the bad; when consumed too much.
    Just a warning.

          Jaime – I used Skinny Fiber and lost 60 pounds. I started using Skinny Body MAX in January and have lost almost 20 pounds. I began using HiBurn8 at night in March and it helps me sleep and also burns fat.

          Skinny Fiber and Skinny Body MAX both work very well. HiBurn8 helps to burn fat and lose weight while you sleep. They all come with a money back guarantee.

      Adverse reactions to cinnamon have not been reported in doses up to 6 grams daily, according to Drugs.com. However, some side effects are possible. Cinnamon oil can cause a burning sensation when it’s applied directly to skin. Candy and gum that contain a lot of cinnamon can irritate tissues inside your mouth. If you’re sensitive to coumarin and consume too much cassia cinnamon, it can cause liver disease or make your condition worse if you already have liver problems.

          Honey:

          It helps boost and speed up the metabolism which helps the body burn fat.

          Honey has a healthier glycemic index (GI) than sugar, therefore it doesn’t cause a sugar rush, but it is gradually and progressively absorbed into our body.

          Cinnamon:

          It stabilizes blood sugar levels and increases the metabolism of glucose. Since high blood sugar levels can lead to increased storage of fat, cinnamon helps prevent this.

          Cinnamon improves insulin function. Thus, you lose weight.

          The cinnamon and local honey clean parasites, fungus and bacteria in the digestive tract.

          You will also have a feeling of fullness and satiety.

    Hi there,
    I just wanted to share my experience using this recipe for the past 10 days, in short I found it worked really well but let me go into more detail.

    I used organic raw honey and some fine ground cinnamon and I must also point out I am on a calorie control diet of 1700cal per day and walking 3 miles a day (to and from work) along with 1 hour of swimming a week.
    Before I started taking this drink I lost a pound a week easily in the past 10 days I have lost 3 1/2 pounds.Of course, this could just be a coincidence but I don’t believe it is, as I feel I know my body well enough to know that this drink helped.
    Even if the extra 2 pounds loss was just a coincidence the drink was very beneficial in other ways. I noticed I felt much “brighter” in the morning and a cough/cold that I had been struggling with for the past 3 weeks has all but gone now.

    My advice to anyone reading this is to try the drink for at least 2 weeks before dismissing it. Even if you don’t lose extra weight, raw honey and cinnamon is really good for you in general.

      Yes. The key to losing weight is to burn more calories than you consume on a daily basis. If you can burn 500 calories more per day than you consume, you can potentially lose 1 pound in 7 days. Weight loss is 70% to 80% diet and only 20% to 30% exercise. Keep an eye on your daily caloric intake.

      Weight loss results vary depending upon your daily caloric intake and activity level. Healthy weight loss is 1 to 2 pounds per week. The goal is to burn more calories than you consume on a daily basis. If you burn 500 more calories than you consume each day, that could lead to a 1 pound weight loss in 1 week. The drink should be drank every night and morning for as long as you feel is necessary.

Most evidence that this diet works is anecdotal; there are no proven results. Nobody can attain permanent weight loss without a proper balance between healthy diet and exercise. To lose weight, you should eat a variety of food groups, limit junk food and consume appropriate portions. Additionally, exercise that includes both cardio and strength-training should be a regular part of your exercise plan. When someone asks you how to lose weight using cinnamon powder and honey, by all means share the recipe.

        Do not re-heat it in the morning.

        Hey Bitia,

        I would recommend just making enough each time for just one serving. So microwave a coffee cup full of water until it’s hot, then dissolve the cinnamon. Once it’s cooled down to a warm stage, add the honey. Also after you’re done with work, do a salt water cleanse. It’s about 32oz of water and 2 teaspoons of sea salt. But be near a toilet, because you’ll be pooping soup! (Sorry if that’s gross).

        3) Pour the boiling water on cinnamon. Cover it and let it steep until it is warm enough to drink.
        4) Add honey when the water is cool/warm. Never add honey when it is hot as the heat will destroy the enzymes and other nutrients in the raw honey.
        5) Drink half before going to bed. The other half should be covered and refrigerated, drink it the following morning. Do not re-heat.

        Do not add any flavors in this mixture as this recipe only works if you drink it on empty stomach.

        Im guessing that it didnt say to not reheat when the commenter asked this. They may have updated the recipe, just saying.

          Honey is added to make it more tolerable to drink. Drinking cinnamon water by itself does not taste very good. I sometimes substitute Agave Nectar for honey.
