Change To Fat-Burning Foods To Help Lose Your Stomach Fat

     There are some simple actions we can take begin losing stomach fat. We can have more of the foods that in fact help burn fat from our stomachs. These foods do exist and they are easy to get. They are just as easy to have as the foods that add to our stomach fat, so all we need to do is switch the fat-making foods with the fat-burning foods. Here are three foods you may change to right now to help remove your stomach fat.

Change From Sugary Drinks To Water

Health professionals tells us we should drink about eight glasses of water a day. Most of us are not going to do this, but if you drink water instead of sugary drinks like sodas and commercial fruit juices, you will be increasing your water intake and fighting your weight. You may even get close to those eight glasses.

Water helps speed up your metabolism, which makes your body work harder to digest food and burns fat in the process. It also eliminates toxins - poisons - from your body, making you healthier by getting rid of waste efficiently. This also breaks down and helps eliminate fat.

One trick is to have one or two glasses of water before a meal to make you feel fuller. It could be you were not so hungry in the first place because our brain can get the thirst and hunger signals confused. Sometimes when we think we are hungry we are actually thirsty. Try having a glass of water instead of a snack and you may be able to delay eating for a while.

Eat More Protein

Most of us eat too many highly refined carbohydrates. These are foods that not only taste good but also are easy for the body to break down and digest. And that is the trouble - the body breaks them down easily and quickly converts them into sugar, which pushes up our blood sugar level. Our body then makes insulin to control the surge in sugar. Insulin is a fat-storing protein so we store fat instead of losing it.

When we eat protein our body has to work harder to break it down. This speeds up our metabolism and we burn fat in the process. We do not have to do a thing - simply eating protein will help us lose stomach fat. Food like eggs, lean meat, nuts and beans are all good sources of protein. There are plenty more you can find. Start making more of these foods part of your diet.

Eat The Right Carbohydrates

You do have to have carbohydrates but they have to be the right ones. The right ones are fat-burning foods that have the same effect as protein. They speed up your metabolism and help you lose stomach fat. Wholegrain bread falls into this category. If you eat a lot of bread replace white bread with wholegrain. Eat oats and natural muesli for breakfast instead of commercial cereals that are usually loaded with sugar. Fruit and vegetables are good carbohydrates because of their protein and nutrient content. While fruits are high in natural sugar they are full of nutrients and a good source of carbohydrates. Start replacing the white bread, French fries, cakes and cookies with these foods and your body will thank you by feeling better and losing weight.

If you want to lose stomach fat, you do not have to go onto a strict, way-out diet. You do not have to starve yourself or look for exotic foods that are expensive or hard to get. You simply have to start replacing the foods you are eating now with fat-burning foods
