Losing weight with stevia and burning fat with this natural sweetener are two topics that I love to discuss with my weight loss clients. It’s a secret weapon that Asian women have used for decades to enjoy delicious sweets and desserts while still losing weight quickly. Let’s find out how you can benefit from this ancient leaf and why it works so well for weight loss!
Stevia Weight Loss: Burn Fat With This Natural Sweetener
Stevia actually comes from a group of plants found in South America, Central America, and Mexico. That part is not important, I don’t want to bore you with a long history of the origin of this wonderful plant. Instead, I want to tell you why it is so helpful for someone trying to lose weight:
Because it tastes exactly like sugar and has ZERO calories!
That’s right, this is not a dangerous chemical mix like aspartame or Splenda (yes, Splenda is horrible and should be avoided entirely).
Stevia is a 100% natural and organic substance that grows in the soil, as almost all of our food sources should. It can be purchased in powder form or already included in certain food products and soft drinks that you will find at local health stores. Just read ingredient labels on products to determine if there is Stevia inside.
The key to any successful weight loss program is to stay on it.
Stevia is a godsend for dieters because it allows you to eliminate almost all the sugar-based calories in your life without having to suffer from withdrawal or cravings for sweets.
You can put it in tea and coffee. You can sprinkle it on low-calorie dry cereal. You can even bake cookies and cakes with it!
Does this sound like an ad for Stevia? Probably, but when you’ve seen the results like me, the actual weight loss in many people over the course of months, you’ll want to yell about it from the top of the tallest mountain to anyone who will listen. It is a great tool that allows people to STOP overeating and make real progress towards their dream body in a healthy way.
Important: read the labels of all foods and drinks
I talk about this in great detail in my book, The Skinny Asian Diet, but I want to do a quick rundown for everyone today of what to look for and avoid on product labels.
What You DON’T WANT: High Fructose Corn Syrup, Sucralose, Splenda, Aspartame, Saccharin.
If I see any of those listed in the ingredient chart, I put the item back on the shelf. Period. This is not negotiable.
Enjoy these four deadly elements forever (“Splenda” is the trade name for sucralose, they are the same, which is why it is 4 instead of 5) and make sure you never consume any of them. There are reasons why diabetes, cancer, and various health problems have increased by 300% over the past 40 years, and it is no coincidence that each of these products was invented during that period. Think about it.
The bottom line is that you must act now
I hear many people tell me that they are fed up with the latest diet programs on the market these days, where you are DYING FROM HUNGER or trying to survive BRUTAL weight loss workouts.
