There are some foods that actually help you
lose weight. We all know losing weight can be difficult, but with the right
diet and exercise you can easily lose weight naturally.
There are certain foods that KILL belly fat and
others that CAUSE belly fat and belly bulge.Here are 15 that will help flatten
that bulge:
1. Avocados: These little
suckers are loaded with two nutrients that are KEY to killing belly fat:
hunger-crushing fiber 11 to 17 grams per avocado!, and monounsaturated fats,
which studies have shown to actually “spot reduce” belly fat. Zowie!
2. Peanut Butter: Okay, not just peanut butter, but mostly any
seeds and nuts and these are the best: pistachios, walnuts, almonds (or almond
butter, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and flax seeds. Why? They keep you full
and satisfied for long periods of time, and they’re stuffed with healthy,
belly-burning fats and minerals.
3. Crisco: KIDDING! Just seeing if you were paying attention. That
stuff is deadly. Healthy oils like olive oil, coconut oil and brand names like
Udo’s Oil and Barlean’s Oil (I like the swirl flavors) actually help you burn
fat by supplying healthy oils your body needs to burn body blubber.
4. These Veggies: I’ve got to thank my buddy Mike Geary for this
one. Turns out certain vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, brussel
sprouts, kale, and cabbage contain special phytonutrients, such as
indole-3-carbinol (I3C), which help to fight against environmental estrogens
that can add belly fat. Mom was right…eat your veggies!
5. Omelets: Eggs aren’t bad, they’re nutrient-dense and loaded with
belly-burning protein, vitamins B6, B12, A, D, E, and K, folate, choline,
lutein, calcium, iron, phosphorus, zinc, and omega-3 fatty acids. Plus, they
keep you full for long periods of time. Choose eggs that come from free-range
chickens. You’ll get more healthy nutrients.
6. Dark Chocolate: That is not a typo. Dark chocolate is
loaded with antioxidants with nearly eight times the number found in
strawberries and it contains stimulants that can have a positive effect on fat
burning, including theobromine and caffeine. It also contains a nice dose of
oleic acid, which is a monounsaturated fat. Make sure to choose the 78% or
higher cocoa levels for best results.
7. Oatmeal: Packed with fiber and whole-grain goodness, you
can’t go wrong. Just be sure to avoid the processed, high-sugar junk out there
and stick to slow-cook oats. Add a dash of cinnamon, some walnuts, berries, and
a natural sweetener to taste. BAM! Good stuff.
8. Green Tea: Not only does it contain a potent antioxidant, many
scientific studies have linked green tea to increased fat burning, including a
report in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition that found green tea
extract boosted the daytime metabolism of test subjects by 35- 43%.
9. Beans: Black beans, navy beans, refried beans, and lima beans
all have 6 or more grams of fiber per ½ cup. Fiber can clean your system of
pounds of “toxic waste” and reduce your belly bulge in a big way. See #5 for
details.
10. Berries: Strawberries, raspberries
and blackberries are loaded with fiber, which slows sugar absorption,
and they’re packed with vitamins that can fight cravings. Note: cravings can
come from vitamin deficiencies.
11. Cinnamon: Researchers have found that cinnamon contains a
type of antioxidant that increases insulin sensitivity and effectively helps to
stabilize blood sugar. Bottom line…you’ll store less belly fat.
12. Chilli Peppers: Studies have shown that the active ingredient
in chili peppers and powder, something called capsaicin, increases
calorie-burning, stabilizes blood sugar levels which decreases fat storage, and
is a potent antioxidant. Add some of this “spice” to your life.
13. Yogurt: Most regular yogurt is bad for your belly. It’s loaded
with belly-bulging sugar that you want to avoid. However, Greek yogurts like
Stoneyfield Farms Oikos Greek Yogurt -plain- are loaded with probiotics that
fight belly bulge. See #6.
14. Wild Salmon: Hands-down one of the best belly-blasting foods
because of its protein and high omega-3 fatty acid content. This is like a
“double shotgun approach” to killing belly fat. Many people are deficient in
omega-3s and when they add them to their diet the fat can really start coming
off.
15. Giant Turkey Legs: You got me. I’m pulling your leg. (Get it?)
I’m not just talking about turkey meat (white preferred), but any lean protein
source is a good belly-blasting food. This includes wild salmon, free-range
chicken, whey protein powders, and most especially grass-fed beef because it
contains natural CLA—a fat that studies have actually shown to burn fat. The
interesting thing about protein is your body will burn off as much as 30% of its
calories after you eat it.
2. Peanut Butter: Okay, not just peanut butter, but mostly any seeds and nuts and these are the best: pistachios, walnuts, almonds (or almond butter, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and flax seeds. Why? They keep you full and satisfied for long periods of time, and they’re stuffed with healthy, belly-burning fats and minerals.
