Coffee has been proven to facilitate the breakdown of fat cells, help reactivate circulation and increase the levels of fat-burning molecules. A good home trick is to collect coffee residues from the filter and apply it in a circular motion. If you maintain an exercise and eating regimen, the results will be obvious in weeks.
