Why Weight

Eat Your Way to Flat, Sexy Abs With These Foods

By Tl Kleban


Now that springtime is right around the corner, everybody is trying to get back into shape. This includes eliminating that annoying belly fat. The problem is all the sit-ups and crunches in the world can give you rock hard sic pack abs if there is a layer of fat covering them up. A flat stomach workout also needs the proper diet to go along with it. Don't go dumping your workout for not seeing any results without dealing with your diet issues.

In my own personal experience, I've found that tightening up my abs is the most difficult part of my body image because there is no single solution to the problem. If you want six pack abs, new studies prove that what you put in your body is just as important as how much you work it off.
Here are some foods you should add to your diet to decrease your belly fat:

Eat fruits and vegetables

- Everyone knows fruits and vegetables are good for you but the orange ones are great for building abs. They are full of fiber which causes you to feel less hungry since you are fuller but they are also loaded in anti-oxidants. Vitamin C and beta-carotene have long be known to help fight off ab fat. beta-carotene can be found in delicious snacks such as carrots, cantaloupe, squash, and peaches. While you can get Vitamin C in the likes of oranges, berries, and kiwi. Fruit juice offers some of these benefits but not nearly as much as the actual fruit itself will.

Eat more protein - Eating more protein seems somewhat obvious for building ab muscles but it also helps you feel full. Protein also gives you extra energy and a higher metabolism, causing you to burn more fat, leading to weight loss. This weight loss can be noticed in the ab region in particular. Try to eat healthy proteins low in calories such as lean cuts of poultry or fish. Low-fat yogurt, fat-free milk, and nuts are sources of protein too. Pay attention to the calorie count.

Try to drink a glass of wine everyday - Drinking wine as an excuse to fight weight loss isn't the right way to think of this step. Wine is rich in anti-oxidants and can provide multiple health benefits on top of the weight loss. Some health professionals suggest drinking wine protects against female midsection weight gain and recommend one glass of wine a few days a week to see results.

Add the mineral selenium to your diet - You may not know it but selenium is one of the best minerals you can put in your body. It has been shown to fight cancer as well as lowering the rates of abdominal obesity in many people. Lower blood levels of selenium and other antioxidants are commonly found in obesity sufferers with larger waistlines than people with higher levels. You can find selenium in plenty of tasty foods but I recommend taking it in supplement form in order to meet your daily requirements.
