The pathway to flat abs starts with your fork! Add these foods to your meals and snacks every day to uncover your toned ‘bootcamp’ tummy.
1) ALMONDS – The healthy fat in nuts keep you satisfied, staving off future snack attacks.
2) GREEN TEA – Sipping green tea (approximately 3 cups a day) revs up your metabolism and helps you burn fat.
3) BLUEBERRIES – Antioxidants in blueberries help improve your blood flow, which in turn delivers more oxygen to your muscles.
4) BULGUR – High in fiber, bulgur shrinks fat cells by keeping your body’s insulin levels low. This in turn downsizes your fat cells.
5) AVOCADOS – Blood sugar peaks can signal your body to store fat around your mid-section. But healthy monounsaturated fats like avocados stop the spikes, thwarting fat accumulation.
6) CHOCOLATE MILK – The combination of protein and carbs in chocolate milk promotes muscle growth.
7) WATER RICH FRUITS AND VEGGIES – Juicy fruit and vegetables with high water content fill you up for very few calories, and help you feel full.
8)LENTILS – Lentils are loaded with protein and fiber, two key nutrients that help stabilize blood sugar levels.
9)YOGURT – Yogurt supplies your body with probiotics, healthy bacteria that crowd out other bugs that cause abdominal bloating.
10) CHEESE/DAIRY PRODUCTS – High calcium foods help regulate fat and weight gain in energy dense diets by inhibiting fat storage and promoting fat breakdown.
