How to lose 5 kg in a month using breathing

Lose weight with the right breathing - sounds fantastic, but this is also an exercise and also work on oneself, which not everyone can do.

Our breathing is constantly disturbed due to stress, drinking coffee, smoking, and becomes shallow. As a result, the body poorly assimilates nutrients, including calcium, iodine, amino acids and other substances that help the digestion process.

If you start to breathe correctly, your metabolism will become 25-40% more active, respectively, in a month you can lose from 2 to 5 kg using only these exercises. You need to exercise only 15-20 minutes a day, but it is important to do it regularly.

The main secret of proper breathing is to breathe with the belly, not the chest. So more lung volume is involved, more oxygen enters, more fats are oxidized. Also, breathing through the abdomen promotes the release of the hormone of joy - endorphin, which relieves stress.
