Tips for weight loss and to get flatter stomach…
1) Opt for monounsaturated fatty acis, or MUFAs, which may stop belly fat before it starts. Olive oil, avocados and nuts are excellent sources.
2) Drink green tea
3) Chinese food with a low Glycemic Index (GI) like beans, lentils and chickpeas, instead of high GI options like white rice and potatoes.
4) Meet daily recommended calcium levels (1,000 mg for adults). When your body is low on calcium it produces a hormone that signals the bod to store visceral fat.
5) Exercise right. Combine core exercise with cardio (running etc.)
