For better results, experts recommend combining chicken breast with green vegetables, whole grains and a reasonable lifestyle.
Protein in chicken breast helps increase feeling of fullness and limit visceral fat accumulation. According to Donald Layman, Professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (USA), a diet rich in lean protein can help reduce visceral fat and maintain better muscle mass during weight loss. He said lean meat protein such as chicken breast helps improve metabolism and reduce fat accumulation in the abdomen.
Combining chicken breast with green vegetables
Green vegetables such as broccoli, spinach or cucumber provide fiber and antioxidants. Fiber from vegetables helps control blood sugar and reduce visceral fat accumulation effectively.
Combined with whole grains
Brown rice, oats or quinoa help provide stable energy and limit fat accumulation. Whole grains help reduce belly fat and improve metabolic health.
Combined with light exercise
Fast walking or strength training helps the body burn visceral fat better. When combining a protein-rich diet and exercise, the fat reduction effect is often more noticeable.
Experts note that chicken breast should be processed by boiling, steaming or pan-frying with little oil to limit energy increase.
