Which foot is the best to burn belly fat?

The harsh truth is that there is no food that is going to burn belly fat and you can not selectively burn fat in one spot, you can only reduce your overall body fat.

Eating more nutrient-rich, low calories foods like kale and avocados can certainly help. The key to losing your belly is to eat a healthy diet that is low in sugar and high in fiber.

Best foods that help to lose belly fat

Here is the list of best foods that you need to add to your diet if do you want to lose belly fat.

Avocados

I was born in the southern part of Tanzania, where we have an abundance of avocados. I can tell you for sure that this is one of the best food when it comes to belly fat loss.

The main reason for this is that avocados are loaded with two nutrients that are key to burning belly fat, the fibers that will make fill you full ( around 11 to 17 grams per avocado) and the monounsaturated fats which according to many studies actually help to reduce belly fat.

Peanut Butter And Other Nut Butters

Peanuts butter and most of the seeds and nuts like pistachios, walnuts, almonds ( or almond butter, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and flax seeds are good for you if you want to lose belly fat.

These seeds will keep you full and satisfied for long periods of time since they contain monounsaturated fats.

Broccoli

If there is one thing that you should eat to lose belly fat, this is it. I eat Broccoli in most of my meals and the results have been amazing. I would recommend you to do the same.

I cannot recommend this enough as this vegetable improves insulin sensitivity which helps with weight loss and reduces the risk of type2 diabetes.

Cauliﬂower

Cauliflower is one of the most overlooked vegetables when it comes to weight loss. Cauliflower is, without a doubt, an excellent source of vitamins, minerals, nutrients, and antioxidants.

If you’re trying to flatten your belly or simply wish to improve health, adding cauliflower to your diet will help you a lot.

Brussel Sprouts

Brussel sprouts are considered a natural weight-loss food because they are high in fiber and protein and low in fat and calories.

This is the perfect vegetable to burn belly fat, Brussel sprouts also hold other health benefits for your nutrition.

Kale

According to research, it is the fiber in the kale that is going to help you to lose belly fat. 1 cup serving of cooked kale has 3 grams of fiber.

Adding more fiber to your diet helps you to lose weight and reduces your risk of heart disease and diabetes two risk factors of excess belly fat.

Cabbage

Cabbage juice is rich in dietary fiber, which helps keep you fuller for longer, thereby, preventing cravings and hunger pangs. This further reduces the chances of loading up on extra calories.

Oatmeal

Oats are high in protein and low in calories, which make it the perfect food for a flat stomach. Oats take time to digest in the body and hence, tend to burn calories. This is what makes oats a good source of energy throughout the day and lowers your cholesterol.

Green Tea

Not only does it contain a potent antioxidant, but many scientiﬁc studies also 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%.

Berries

Strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries are loaded with ﬁber (which slows sugar absorption), and they’re packed with vitamins that can ﬁght cravings (cravings can come from vitamin deﬁciencies).

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.

Chili 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.

Dark Chocolate

Dark chocolate is loaded with antioxidants (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 monounsaturated fat. Make sure to choose the 78% or higher cocoa levels for best results.

Apples

Fresh and crunchy apples are packed with healthy flavonoids and fibers that may help burn belly fat. They are particularly rich in pectin fiber that breaks down slowly.

The fibers present in apples promote satiety. If you feel full, you would naturally binge less.
