As we get older it gets harder and harder to get rid of unwanted belly fat. Most people have such a hectic schedule that it’s difficult to find the time to make a nutritious home cooked meal and so they opt for fast food or quick processed throw together meals that are just not healthy.
Did you know that 80% of your immune system is in your intestines? The amount of “good” bacteria in your intestines is equal to the total number of cells in your entire body and when you eat processed foods and fast food it creates “bad” bacteria in your intestines that attack the “good” bacteria creating toxins, viruses and parasites. These will eventually lead to illnesses such as allergies, headaches, varies disorders, and even cancer. All this builds up in your system over time and puts undue stress on your body and makes it more difficult to get rid of unwanted belly fat.
If you really want to get rid of your belly fat and become healthier, then you are going to have to make changes to what you put in your body.
The first thing you want to do is rid your body of the intestinal toxic build-up that has been sitting in your system by doing a colon cleanse. By cleansing your system and getting rid of the toxic build-up it not only makes you feel better, but also makes it easier to lose that unwanted belly fat.
Now start making changes to what you put in your body by getting rid of the unhealthy foods, such as refined sugars and processed foods and start eating foods rich in monounsaturated fat and polyunsaturated fat. Examples of monounsaturated fat are olive, peanut and canola oils, nuts such as peanuts, almonds, and macadamia. Polyunsaturated fat are found in soybeans, sunflower seeds, fish and corn oils. Both fatty acids are suggested to lower low-density lipoprotein (LDL), the bad cholesterol. You also want to eat foods that are high in protein and fiber that contain lots of vitamins and minerals, they will fill you up faster, you won’t eat as much, and you will feel full longer. Leafy greens and beans are a good source.
Make healthy substitutions to your eating habits that will allow you to eat healthier. For instance, instead of eating white rice, eat brown or black rice, whole wheat pasta, whole wheat or grain breads that DO NOT have “Enriched Wheat Flour” as one of the ingredients. Enriched wheat flour is wheat flour that has been processed to the point that there is nothing left but starch with NO vitamins, minerals, or fiber left. Also make sure to Eat more fruits and vegetables, small portions of lean meat, and fish.
The changes you make to your eating habits are going to depend on how bad you want to lose that unwanted belly fat and become healthier. It will require commitment and self-discipline on your part. The best thing to do would be to talk to a certified nutritionist or your doctor and line up a good support system so there is someone available to hold you accountable and to encourage you along in the desire to get rid of unwanted belly fat.
