How useful is hot water and honey on an empty stomach to lose weight?

A teaspoon of honey contains 6 grams of sugar and 21 calories. The glycemic index of honey is 58. Which is not good for diabetics.

It is a long-standing practice to wake up in the morning and take a spoonful of honey and lemon in warm water. Believe, along with exercise, this drink will not make you lose weight. But some nutritionists do not fully agree with this. According to them, even though various organizations talk about the quality of their honey, it is almost impossible to get pure honey. All store-bought honey is nothing but another form of sugar. Again according to Ayurveda, honey acts like a poison in the body when it comes in contact with hot water. If diabetic patients consume this drink for a long time, it can disturb the blood sugar balance of normal people. If so, get up in the morning and drink what?

According to nutritionists, water mixed with lemon juice and a pinch of cinnamon as a substitute for honey and lemon helps in controlling blood sugar levels. Barley contains a compound called thymol, which aids in digestion. Besides, cinnamon also helps in weight loss by increasing the metabolic rate.
