    Quick Reasons Why You Should Lose the Bulge and Tips on How to Lose Your Belly Fat.

    Quick Reasons Why You Should Lose the Bulge and Tips on How to Lose Your Belly Fat.

    Belly fat is one of the most uncomfortable places to store fat, and often there are important reasons to trim the area, other than just to look good.

    Visceral fat is body fat that sits in excess, further under your skin and wraps itself around your vital organs, including your pancreas, kidneys and liver. Having a “pot belly” and bigger waistline is usually a very good telltale that you are harbouring dangerous visceral fat. While more noticeable in severely overweight people, anyone can have it without really knowing. This fat raises the risk of serious conditions.

    The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Disorders reports that obesity, and potentially the carrying extra belly fat, can contribute on a very large scale to some major health problems:

    • Type 2 diabetes
    • Heart disease and stroke
    • Metabolic syndrome
    • Some forms of cancer
    • Sleep apnea
    • Osteoarthritis
    • Gallbladder and fatty liver disease
    • Complications with pregnancy

    Losing the weight in this area is usually a hard battle in itself. Some of the common factors that contribute to stacking the weight on your belly are:

    • Increased consumption of processed and convenience foods which could be resulted from being time poor, or having limited funds to afford healthier options.
    • Increased levels of stress impacting on quality sleep and healthy routines.
    • Genetics; some research* shows a mother’s habits during pregnancy can have a direct impact on their children.
    • A reduction in physical activity and sedentary jobs.
    • Toxicity changes in the body.

    Here are our basic tips which might help on your mission to lose your belly fat.

    1. Eat more fat-burning foods

    Foods from nature, just the way they were intended. Avoid over-processed foods, including sugar and refined carbs. Enjoy vegetables, fruits, seeds, clean meats and fish, legumes, and those foods grown in fertile soils without any nasty chemicals added.

    If you’re the sweet-way inclined, you could look to use healthier sweeteners such as Manuka honey or coconut sugar for example. Remembering, however, these are still sugars and should be taken under strict moderation.

    1. Increase your fibre

    Good for helping to control your appetite, digestion, and health of your heart. Increasing dietary fibre naturally through fruits, vegetables, legumes, and whole grains 

    1. Drink more from nature

    Water and herbal teas should replace soft drinks and processed juices.

    1. Exercise

    Speaks for itself really. You can’t lose weight without expecting to incorporate some form of physical activity. Magic potions and diet pills that claim otherwise, cannot be good for your body, and probably prove not that effective in the long-run anyway.

    1. Remain focused and decrease stress levels

    Stress experienced over time can be considered dangerous and can raise your risk of heart disease, diabetes, mental disorders and autoimmune diseases.

    1. Enjoy some metabolic-boosting matcha green tea

    Matcha tea can offer a kick to your metabolism to help with weight loss and science** has proven that drinking tea can actually reduce your body fat. Bondi Beach Tea Co. matcha green tea is a great help for this.

    Long-term results are based on the changes you make to your diet and lifestyle. Changes are not always simple to start with. However, they will become easier the more you keep to it. When you begin to see the results of losing your belly fat, and your hard work, you will thank your drive and enthusiasm for it. Good luck.
