3 things to avoid when losing visceral fat

HẠ MÂY (Theo eatingwell) |

We need to give up some habits to help reduce visceral fat and reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, high blood sugar...

Late night snack

You should consume calories early in the day rather than late at night. We need more energy during the day to work and move our bodies more. When the day ends, we need less energy.

Eating dinner early gives you more time to use that energy before bed, so less energy is stored, helping to reduce visceral fat.

Eat foods that are bad for your gut

An unhealthy gut cannot absorb nutrients and eliminate waste effectively. Processed foods, preservatives, artificial colors, flavors, and sugar destroy the normal intestinal flora. When this happens, the stomach becomes bloated and gassy.

In addition to bloating, a weak gut can cause inflammation, making it harder to lose weight. To help fuel a healthy, anti-inflammatory gut, eat plenty of whole foods and minimize foods high in added sugars, saturated fats, and sodium to help reduce visceral fat.

Probiotics and prebiotics can help improve gut health. Probiotics include Greek yogurt or kimchi, kombucha. Foods such as artichokes, apples, asparagus, garlic, and bananas act as prebiotics.

Don't eat complex carbs

Eating too many refined carbohydrates such as bread, rice, pasta, and cookies will increase belly fat and visceral fat. If we want to lose fat, we should focus on eating carbohydrates rich in nutrients and fiber such as vegetables and fruits with a low glycemic index.

Choosing high-fiber carbohydrates, such as vegetables, fruits, and whole grains, helps maintain stable blood sugar levels, thereby forming healthy eating habits that promote visceral fat loss.
