Quang Minh (theo Heathline) |

Here are five winter soups that have been scientifically proven to be beneficial in reducing visceral fat.

Seaweed soup with tofu

Seaweed is a natural source of iodine, which supports thyroid function and metabolism. Tofu is a low-calorie, plant-based protein that helps maintain muscle mass and control hunger. According to a study in the Journal of Endocrinology, a diet rich in iodine and plant-based protein can reduce belly fat and improve insulin sensitivity.

Mushroom and ginger soup

Mushrooms contain beta-glucan, a soluble fiber that helps reduce cholesterol and visceral fat. Ginger, with anti-inflammatory compounds like gingerol, helps increase fat burning.

Research from Metabolism Journal shows that mushroom and ginger soup not only promotes digestion but also reduces visceral fat accumulation in overweight people.

Pumpkin and chia seed soup

Pumpkin is rich in beta-carotene, soluble fiber and low in calories, which helps control blood sugar and reduce appetite. Chia seeds contain omega-3 and fiber, which helps reduce blood fat and control visceral fat.

Combining pumpkin and chia seeds in the diet significantly reduces belly fat index in adults.

Vegetable soup with chicken

Vegetable soups like carrots, celery, and onions are rich in fiber and antioxidants, combined with lean chicken to provide high-quality protein, helping to reduce visceral fat.

Research published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition shows that a diet rich in lean protein and fiber effectively supports visceral fat loss without losing muscle mass.

Kimchi soup

Kimchi, a traditional fermented food, contains probiotics that support gut health and control belly fat. Combine kimchi with warm broth and tofu or mushrooms for a nutritious, low-calorie soup.

Research from the British Journal of Nutrition shows that consuming fermented foods like kimchi helps reduce visceral fat by improving the balance of gut bacteria.

These foods are rich in fiber, protein, and anti-inflammatory compounds that help control blood lipids, improve metabolism, and maintain overall health. Incorporating them into your daily diet, along with a reasonable exercise routine, will help you achieve your health goals in a sustainable way.
