Read on to learn more.
- Lemon Water
Depending on your height and weight, the average person should be drinking eight 8-ounce glasses of water a day in order to stay hydrated. By adding lemon to every glass of water you drink a day, you can help to reduce your belly fat. How? By helping to aid your liver in detoxifying foods and beverages that come through your body, lemon acts as the perfect cleansing tool. Simply squeeze a slice of fresh lemon into your water and you will hopefully start to not only notice your belly fat disappearing, but you will notice that you feel better overall as well.
- Yogurt
Fermented foods like yogurt are filled with antibodies that help aid your immune system and help keep your digestive system on track. By eating a yogurt a day you can help cut down on things like bloating, constipation, and any sort of abdominal swelling. Just make sure that you are eating a yogurt that’s low in sugar and high in protein, because too much sugar can cause your blood sugar levels to skyrocket.
- Vitamin C Enriched Foods
You’ve probably heard that the more stressed out you are, the more your body tends to store unwanted fat around your middle. But do you know why that is exactly? Stress causes your body to release cortisol which can cause you to store onto extra unwanted fats. However, Vitamin C enriched foods like oranges, broccoli, kale, strawberries and brussel sprouts are known to reduce your cortisol levels and help ease your body’s response to stress.
