Stop eating one thing.. and you will lose the extra weight quickly!
A doctor and author of books on diet shared very important advice for those who suffer from excess weight and want to get rid of it and lose belly fat, and said that stopping eating one thing is the magic key to getting rid of belly fat, which is any drink or food that contains more than 5% of sugar no more than twice a week.
And the British newspaper, “Express”, quoted doctor Michael Mosley as saying that fat around the waist or visceral fat is stubborn, but it can be treated if you eat the right foods and do the right exercise.
He explained that to understand belly fat, you have to understand the basics of how insulin works. As we age, the insulin receptors in the cell wall become less sensitive, and as a result, after meals, the blood is full of glucose and fatty acids.
The doctor says that you can lose belly fat quickly, and the first step is to focus on your diet and get rid of high sugar.
Dr. Mosley recommended, "Limit any food or drink with more than five percent sugar to no more than twice a week, including sweet fruits like mango and pineapple, and sweetened juices."
The doctor says that processed carbohydrates such as white bread, potato chips and pasta should be replaced with slow-release energy sources, such as brown rice or quinoa.
"Two things will surprise you: the amount of sugar you were consuming by surprise, and the speed with which your belly fat will start to tame itself," he adds.
He explained that another effective way to lose belly fat is intermittent fasting, adding, "Not only is you losing weight simply by eating fewer calories, but your body responds to the stress of fasting by enhancing hormone function to facilitate weight loss and burning fat for energy." .
He noted that short-term fasting can lead to many changes in the body that make burning fat easier, and this includes decreased insulin, increased growth hormone and improved metabolism.
He explained that, according to one study, intermittent fasting can cause a three to eight percent weight loss over three to 24 weeks.
