In food category one, she gives examples, such as salmon, olive oil, avocado, beans and almonds. She stresses foods like these that are high in either protein, fat or fiber, (and again, these are examples as there are even more foods containing such), which take a lot longer to digest, keeping you feeling fuller longer.
If you don't have enough of protein, fat and fiber and consume white bread, white rice and donuts, your hormones go crazy and increase your abdominal fat because of high blood sugar. Then, as you probably can guess, your blood sugar comes crashing down.
In food category two, she gives examples such as green tea, cayenne pepper, vinegar, eggs, meat and fish.
For example, 1/2 cup of green tea or cayenne pepper each day is going to help burn 10 calories day. Why not make a pitcher of iced green tea every day? It's refreshing as a summer drink!
Don't have an excess of food or, of course, you'll gain weight.
Of course, you do need to exercise with these two categories!
Finally, if you don't have enough rest, your belly fat increases.
This is not rocket science! You can include these foods in your everyday meals! They're easy to find at the grocery store and affordable.
Whether or not you have a muffin top, this is good advice to follow to get rid of or prevent one.
