Health Expert Gautam Ghosh says, ‘Herbs complement a healthy lifestyle. For instance, if you not getting enough sleep, your hormones will feel tired, you’ll have food cravings and an increased appetite or if you are not getting quality foods, your metabolism won’t work properly, similarly if you aren’t working out or active you are making your body weaker and susceptible to sickness and disease. Lifestyle is what makes all the difference. I’d recommend three fat burners cum energy boosters which are easily available in your kitchen.
