Infused Water: The Ultimate Detox and Weight Loss Secret

Infused Water for Detox and Weight Loss
           One of my favorite weight loss topics to talk about is infused water! Studies have shown that drinking water naturally boosts your metabolism, and drinking fruit infused water for weight loss can be an easy way to increase your water intake. These simple infused water recipes are inexpensive, have almost zero calories, and taste great too!
          Also called detox water, fruit flavored water, or fruit infused water; infused water can generally be any combination of fruits, vegetables, and herbs immersed in cold water. While infused water has the benefit of being full of flavor, it also has no calories, making it a very powerful tool in your efforts to lose weight and gain better health. For a full one week detox plan, check out my Detox Diet Week post and give your weight loss a kick start.
I began making infused water back in April 2012 with my first flavored water post Day Spa Apple Cinnamon Water. That recipe turned out to be really popular, and went viral on Pinterest with over 2 million views within the first year. Since then, I have created a lot more infused water recipes, and written a book called Fruit Infusion: A Collection of Day Spa Inspired, Fruit Infused Waters.
You can make a serving of infused water in a single glass, or use an infusion pitcher to make a large batch. I like to keep a large pitcher of infused water in my refrigerator at all times.
My family loves the taste and I’ve found I can get them to drink a LOT more water when I have a pitcher already made up and available. You can refill your infused water pitcher several times without losing a lot of flavor, and the pitchers also look really nice on a kitchen table.

What Are The Benefits of Infused Water?

Besides tasting great and having zero calories, infused water has many additional health benefits, including:
  • Improves your mood.
  • Flushes toxins from your system.
  • Fills you up so you don’t eat as much junk.
  • Naturally helps your body release fat cells.
  • Keeps food moving through your system.
  • Keeps your organs healthy while you’re sweating.
  • Reduces muscle fatigue while working out.
  • Helps you recuperate faster from a workout.
  • Keeps you from feeling groggy in the afternoon.
