How to make: Add 1 tea bag of chamomile tea to 1 cup of hot water. Allow to soak for 5 mins and drink warm.

Benefits: Poor sleep is a major reason for weight gain and cravings. Chamomile helps you sleep deeper and longer, which balances hormones like cortisol and ghrelin (your hunger hormones). Chamomile is a natural relaxant. It also helps flush out water retention, which can help you feel lighter and less puffy. Chronic stress leads to high cortisol levels, which promote fat storage—especially belly fat. Chamomile’s calming effects help reduce stress, which may lower cortisol and support weight regulation.
