How to get rid of belly fat: tips and warnings
Abdominal fat or belly fat is a type of fat that can appear around internal organs such as the stomach, liver, intestines, and others. It can be subcutaneous fat that accumulates in the abdominal area of the body and is a problem not only for overweight people but also for those with a predominantly slim body type.
Abdominal fat can be harmful to health, as its excess stimulates the development of heart disease and type 2 diabetes. OBOZ.UA found out what to do to accelerate the loss of volume in the abdomen.
Eat plenty of protein
It has been proven that eating protein foods can satisfy hunger and reduce the desire to eat by 60%. In addition, this component helps to lose weight and prevent weight gain after the weight loss regimen is over.
Limit your sugar intake
Sugar contains glucose and fructose. In particular, excessive amounts of fructose can lead to the accumulation of fat around the abdomen and liver. Thus, to lose extra pounds and improve your health, you need to limit your sweet intake and completely give up sugary sodas.
Reduce the amount of carbohydrates
Reducing the amount of carbohydrates in your diet helps to reduce your appetite, which can lead to weight loss. In addition, on a low-carb diet, a person can eat as much food as they want without fear of gaining extra inches. For such a diet, you need to give up sweets, white bread and rice, and candy.
Add fiber to your diet
Vegetables, fruits, and legumes containing fiber are effective in slowing down the movement of food through the digestive system, delaying the feeling of fullness and reducing appetite. Thus, soluble fiber helps to significantly reduce unhealthy belly fat and restore ideal shape.
