A diet for weight loss involves not only giving up high-calorie foods, but also understanding what, when, and what foods or drinks to consume.

To get the desired result, you need to have an idea of when it is better to drink coffee - before or after meals.

Endocrinologist Zukhra Pavlova wrote in her blog about how to lose weight with the help of coffee.

The specialist noted that losing weight with the help of coffee is becoming increasingly popular.

Supporters of this diet claim that it can burn up to 4% of the body's accumulated fat in a few weeks.

The diet was developed by British nutritionists, but this does not mean that this weight loss option can be called safe, the doctor warns.

The fact is that to lose weight you need to drink 4 cups of coffee every day.

However, the specialist does not recommend drinking so much coffee even for the sake of fighting excess weight.

Coffee in such quantities can cause a lack of vitamins, calcium and magnesium, so you should limit yourself to two cups.

Also, you should not drink coffee before meals.

Because of this, difficulties arise with the absorption of microelements necessary for the normal functioning of the body.

Pavlova further advises drinking coffee without milk and sugar, an hour after eating, and also advises washing it down with water.

In this case, one can count on a beneficial effect, the expert assures.
