Eggs
Eggs provide high-quality protein that helps you stay full longer and maintain muscle mass as your metabolism slows down with age. The combination of protein and fat helps stabilize blood sugar levels and reduce cravings in the mid-morning.
Greek yogurt
Greek yogurt is rich in protein and contains many beneficial bacteria. This yogurt helps create a feeling of fullness and maintain a healthy gut microbiome. Choose plain, unsweetened yogurt.
Oatmeal
Oatmeal is rich in soluble fiber, which helps slow digestion, control blood sugar levels and reduce belly fat. Oatmeal also supports heart health. This is very important after the age of 50.
Avocado
Avocado provides heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, which have been linked to belly fat loss. Combining avocado with eggs or whole grain toast will create a balanced breakfast and increase the feeling of fullness.
Whole grains
Whole grain bread and quinoa provide slow-digesting carbohydrates and fiber to help regulate appetite and reduce belly fat accumulation over time.
