HOW
TO LOSE BELLY FAT
I'm always asked how to lose belly fat... We all want a slim midsection, yet for some it often more difficult to achieve. Genetics obviously have a big role to play in it; however, we are responsible for what we put in our mouth, an most often than not we're actually not feeding our body healthy wholesome foods.
If you have a large belly odds are that you are insulin
resistant. That means your body cannot process carbohydrates in your diet so it
is stored as fat. The best diet to shrink your midsection is a high protein
& veggies with selected low glycemic index fruits. Aim for having at least
20 to 30 grams of protein with each meal & snack. Eat nuts and have Omega’s to aid in your
weight loss and health. Be sure to drink
lots of purified water to keep you well hydrated and to remove toxins from the
body.
