This Honey and Cinnamon Herbal Tea is a wonderful weight loss supplement with roots in Ayurveda. The tea works because of the active compound in Cinnamon known as Cinnamaldehyde. This component of cinnamon helps us target and shed the "visceral fat" around the belly. Odd as it may sound to include a sweet ingredient, such as Honey, the reason is because it contains antioxidants and enzymes that help clear toxins from our body, it also curbs appetite and research suggests prevents fat being stored by the body. Enjoy these wonderful Honey and Cinnamon Herbal Tea!
