There are so many healthier alternatives available. Water is always a safe bet but you get bored by the taste, don’t you? We bring you 10 healthiest drinks in the world. Start Drinking!
Water
Why wouldn’t the drink that literally keeps us alive be on the list, and that too on the top? Water is not only important for our digestion but also necessary for the absorption of vitamins B and C. It helps in the detoxification of the body and is a very important component of the blood as well.
Coconut Water
Not only is the healthy coconut water a good alternative to sports drink, it also has natural electrolytes to replenish the lost fluid in your body after a long workout. Coconut Water also has high magnesium content. The best part is the refreshing ‘naariyal paani’ is so good to taste.
Pomegranate Juice
That bright red pomegranate juice is great for your body. It does not only prevent inflammation but also fights against prostate cancer, heart disease and lung cancer as well. One thing you need to ensure is that you are drinking pure juice and not diluted with sugar content in it.
Green Tea
Green tea is the healthiest hot beverage in the world. Unsweetened green tea is very healthy and fights against many diseases. It speeds up your metabolism, protects your skin against UVB ray damage, reduces inflammation and keeps your teeth and gums healthy. Why wouldn’t you drink on cup a day?
Cranberry Juice
Cranberry juice is healthier than you thought it is. This magic juice provides relief against kidney stones, urinary tract infection. It also protects your body against various types of cancer and heart diseases. Make sure you only drink 100% cranberry juice for best results.
Ginger Tea
Ginger is a natural remedy for all your stomach problems. It not only efficiently soothes an upset stomach, but also provides relief against motion sickness, indigestion and pregnancy related nausea. To make it tastier and even healthier you can add in a few drops of honey.
Hot Chocolate
Yes, your favourite hot chocolate holds a place in the top healthiest drinks. One of the best ways to deal with cramps is to drink a soothing, hot cup of hot chocolate. It is loaded with antioxidants, flavonoids as well as calcium. The only catch is to mix a spoon of cocoa powder or dark chocolate powder to gain the benefits.
Lemon Water
Lemon juice is great for your immune system. Drinking a glass of lemon water empty stomach in the morning is highly beneficial for your body. Not only does it aid digestion but also cleanses the liver. Use cold water and you have a refreshing summer drink in front of you.
Orange Juice
A glass of fresh orange juice is great for your body. The best way to soothe those seasonal allergies is by drinking a glass of orange juice. It not only contains vitamin C but also quercetin, both of which are great for fighting against seasonal allergies.
Beet Juice
Beets not only lower your blood pressure but also increase the stamina along with increasing the blood flow to the brain in adults. Beet juice contains high calcium, iron and magnesium levels. It is a little difficult to find beet juice in stores, so you can make your own at home.
