Time For A Gut Check?
avoiding certain foods can help put belly fat in check

Avoiding certain foods will help you avoid gaining belly fat, which is both unappealing and detrimental to your health.

You know that your eating habits influence how much weight you gain or lose, and that a share of it ends up around your middle. But studies show there's a link between the typical American "meat and potatoes" diet and fat that builds up around your middle, giving the old adage "sticks to your ribs" new meaning.

Americans love red meat, but consuming a lot of red meat can add to the "spare tire" around your middle. Instead, choose fish, lean poultry, meatless soy products and legumes (lentils, dry beans, peas).

Trans fats, found in foods that are made with hydrogenated oils, have been shown to contribute to an increase in weight. But what's interesting is that the weight gained accumulates disproportionately within the abdominal region. Choose trans fat free foods and restaurants.

Evidence suggests that America's love for refined flour, refined sugar, and high fructose corn syrup is responsible for tummy fat as well. Avoid foods and beverages that contain these ingredients, and choose whole grains and fruits instead. We suggest that you replace refined sugar with Steviva Brand Stevia Powder. Click here to order stevia powder.

Drinking alcohol and smoking are also associated with an accumulation of fat around the middle. Limit yourself to one drink if you're female, two if you're male. And of course giving up smoking is always a healthy choice.

Now you know that what you eat can effect where fat is distributed on your body, so you have one more reason to take time to be thoughtful about your food choices.

Have an excellent day.
