Banish Belly Fat & Turbo Charge Your Metabolism

Add these tasty foods to your diet and take advantage of their natural properties to eliminate belly fat & charge up your metabolism.
Picture
BANANAS: Slice one over whole grain cereal or into Greek yogurt to beat puffiness.  One banana delivers 422 mg of potassium, which helps limit the amount of stomach swelling sodium in your body.

Picture
GREEN TEA: Sipping three cups of this brew a day may rev metabolism enough to burn 30 extra calories, thanks to the antioxidant compound ECGC. That's enough to drop about 3 pounds a year without added dieting.

Picture
ORANGES: Foods rich in Vitamin C curb fat absorption, and studies show that low levels of the nutrient are linked to bigger waistlines.  You need only 75mg a day (the amount in one orange) to trim your tummy.  It doesn't get more a-peeling than that!

Picture
SPINACH: Diets low in calcium and Vitamin C can increase your odds of gaining belly fat.  This leafy green boassts both nutrients, making it doubly slimming.  Add fresh into your regular salads, slowly adding more each time.  Or add an omelet to get your veges in at breakfast.

Picture
GREEK YOGURT: Add some culture to your slim down shopping list.  Greek Yogurt encourages the growth of good bacteria in your gut, crowding out the bloat-causing kind.  Opt for a greek, unflavored type to avoid added sugars, & flavorings.  Instead add your own honey, or fruit to make a perfect pre or post workout meal too!
