Larger waistlines are oftentimes (not always) hiding a sinister threat to health called ‘visceral fat’. Visceral fat, unlike the other (subcutaneous fat) can cause serious health issues like heart disease, diabetes, cancers, etc. It can go unseen in the abdominal cavity and worsen over time. Subcutaneous fat is the fat found directly under layers of skin, and though it can be unsightly, is not harmful in moderate amounts.

How to Lose Belly Fat: Foods to Eat More of
Incorporating exercise into your lifestyle and cutting down on sugary, processed foods will also help keep you healthy.
Belly fat can also be eliminated with the right amount of consistent sleep, and calorie control. Try eliminating the unnecessarily sugary foods and making these healthy ones a part of your life:
- Leafy Greens – examples of these include spinach, kale, and swiss chard. They are low in calories, loaded with fibre, and rich in antioxidants and minerals. Their nutritional properties have been shown to aid with fat burning.
- Cruciferous Vegetables – these include broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, and brussels sprouts. They’re very filling, with minimal calories, and contain a decent amount of protein. In combination with other healthy foods, these veggies can minimise your waistline!
- Whole eggs consumed in moderation can assist with weight loss; they increase feelings of satiety and are high in good protein and healthy fat.
