Did you know that corn silk tea can aid you in losing weight?
For centuries, corn silk tea has been used as a naturally strong diuretic agent, helping to flush out extra water and waste from the body, so considerably reducing one’s inches.
Eating delicious spicy roasted corn on the beach or by the roadside can be a memorable experience. But lest you didn’t know, its velvety surface is far more beneficial to one’s wellness than the corn itself. One can benefit by including it in one’s evening tea.
If you want to lose weight before a major occasion, this is a great strategy that also decreases the difficulties associated with water retention. In the long run, diuretics aid in the elimination of numerous health concerns such as congestive heart failure and kidney disease.
Prevent kidney stones
Corn silk can enhance urine flow and reduce the likelihood of sediment development in the kidneys, which can lead to kidney stone formation. This, however, should be done under the supervision of a skilled doctor.
Controls blood sugar levels
Those who have blood sugar problems benefit from drinking cornsilk tea. The study was conducted on diabetic laboratory rats, and the scientists found that using maize silk polysaccharides helped lower blood sugar levels.
High blood sugar levels cause a variety of complications, including stroke, kidney difficulties, and diabetes. Another study, published in the journal Nutrition and Metabolism in 2009, discovered that corn silk tea aids in the production of insulin in the human body.
This is how to create corn silk tea at home.
Ingredients
Water, lemon juice, and dry or fresh cornsilk
Honey

Put water in a pan, place it on the gas, stove and boil the water for a few minutes.
