❓ Q&A – Your Questions Answered

❔ How does this help with weight loss?

• Lemon boosts digestion, controls blood sugar, and helps detoxify the body.
• Red chili (capsaicin) increases thermogenesis, meaning your body burns more calories by increasing core temperature.
• Together, they reduce appetite, improve metabolism, and assist in burning stubborn belly fat.

❔ Can I drink this more than once a day?

✅ Once daily is typically enough.
⚠️ Drinking too often may irritate your stomach or throat, especially if you’re sensitive to spicy foods.

❔ Can I skip the honey?

Yes! It’s totally optional. It helps ease the heat for beginners but isn’t necessary for fat-burning effects.

❔ Can I use cayenne pepper instead of red chili powder?

Absolutely! Cayenne is often preferred because of its higher capsaicin content and smoother heat.

❔ Who should avoid this drink?

• Anyone with ulcers, acid reflux, IBS, or stomach sensitivity.
• Pregnant or breastfeeding women (consult your doctor first).
• Those on blood thinners or medication that interacts with spicy foods or acidic drinks.

❔ How fast will I see results?

• With a clean diet, hydration, and exercise, results like reduced bloating and appetite can appear within days.
• Long-term fat loss requires consistency and overall healthy habits.
• Rapid weight loss (like 20 kg/month) is not advisable without medical supervision.

⚠️ Final Notes:

This drink is a great metabolism booster, but it’s not magic on its own. Combine it with: ✅ High-fiber, low-sugar diet
✅ Regular movement or workouts
✅ Lots of water
✅ Adequate sleep and stress reduction
