Weight loss is always a big concern for many people, especially women. Instead of choosing expensive products or strict diets, many people are looking for natural ingredients, available in Vietnamese cuisine. One of them is perilla leaves - a familiar herb that brings surprising results in the weight loss journey.
According to research from Healthline, perilla leaves contain many antioxidants, especially Rosmarinic acid, which helps fight inflammation, aids digestion and regulates blood sugar - key factors in weight control.
How to do the 7-day regimen with perilla leaves:
Day 1 - 3:
Every morning, drink a glass of boiled perilla leaf water (about 300ml).
Eat normally but limit white starch and fried foods.
Drink an extra 500ml of perilla water after lunch.
Day 4 - 6:
Drink perilla leaf water before breakfast and dinner (total of 2 times/day).
Eat plenty of green vegetables, reduce red meat, prioritize steamed fish and boiled chicken.
Do light yoga or walk 30 minutes a day.
Day 7:
Eat lightly vegetarian, use 2-3 cups of scattered perilla water per day.
Avoid eating after 7pm, go to bed early to support metabolism.
Note:
Choose clean perilla leaves, do not spray pesticides, wash thoroughly before boiling.
Do not drink too much ( too many liters/day) because it can cause low blood pressure in sensitive people.
People who are allergic to mint plants should try it less first.
Combined with regular consumption of perilla water and diet adjustment, many people have lost 1-2kg after 7 days without feeling tired or exhausted.
