Tips for flat tummy foods




Lemon....
If you're trying to lose weight, replace beverages such as pop, alcohol and sweetened and unsweetened fruit drinks (which are full of calories) with plain water and a slice of lemon. Not only does lemon have a lot of flavour, it also contains vitamin C.


Cucumber....
Crunchy and satisfying, cucumbers are not only hydrating, they can also make you feel full with very few calories.

Turmeric....
Recent years have seen an explosion of research into curcumin, an antioxidant found in turmeric. Studies have shown it has anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal and anticancer activities.

Eggs....
A study carried out by the Rochester Center for Obesity Research found that eating eggs for breakfast helps limit your calorie intake all day, by more than 400 calories. That means you could lose three pounds or more per month.

Berries....
Not only are berries high in vitamins and fibre, they also help fight disease. Berries are some of nature's best sources of antioxidants, which guard against heart disease, cancer and age-related blindness.

Pears....
With a pear's smooth texture, you might not realize that a medium one delivers five grams of total fibre, for 20 percent of your daily needs. The flesh contains mostly soluble fibre (about three grams), including pectin, which lowers LDL, otherwise known as "bad" cholesterol. As well, a University of Illinois study published this year found that soluble fibre can boost the immune system.

Yogurt....
Yogurt is very high in calcium and B vitamins. It’s also a protein superstar— 3/4 cup delivers nine grams.

Chicken....
Since chicken is a lean meat, it's a good source of protein without too much fat.


Green tea....
Green tea is a powerful metabolism stimulator: Drinking it frequently can help to accelerate weight loss. Not only that, but antioxidants in green tea may inhibit the absorption of fat.
