Steps to Reduce Belly Fat
-
1
Go to your local health food store and purchase a probiotic and coconut oil. According to (Ref. 1) Thatsfit.com, probiotics increase nutrient absorption so you will have more energy and will reduce belly fat. Coconut oil heats up during digestion and speeds up your metabolism. Take 1 tbsp. daily as a supplement or use coconut oil in place of your regular cooking oil.

Increase your fiber intake by eating more fresh fruits, vegetables and whole grains. A high-fiber diet helps control bloating. This reduces belly fat buildup and will give you a flatter stomach.

Develop an eating plan. It should be high in fiber and protein, but low in carbohydrates. Eliminate junk food. Stay hydrated. Add yogurt to your diet. According to (Ref. 2) Womenfitness.com, the calcium in yogurt is key to building strong muscles. Muscles "eat" fat, so the stronger your stomach muscles are, the less belly fat you'll store.

Create an exercise routine. Exercise a minimum of three days a week for 1 hour. The more you exercise, the faster your metabolism will be. Make sure 10 to 15 minutes of your routine is dedicated to the abdominal muscles. Two effective ab exercises for eliminating belly fat are the pelvic lift and the pelvic tilt. Instructions for these two exercises can be found at (Ref. 3) Mayoclinic.com.
