How to Lose Fat Around Waist and Keep It Off

Anti-inflammatory supplements can help provide long term weight loss by finally addressing the underlying problem so you lose weight and keep it off.

Facts About Belly Fat

Knowing how to lose fat around waist area is critical.  Why?  Because belly fat kills, literally.  Studies show that belly fat, also known as visceral fat, increases risk for type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and other chronic conditions.  In fact, many prominent health organizations use BMI to predict risk of metabolic disease and other conditions.  However, belly fat may be at elevated and dangerous levels even in people who appear thin.  Unfortunately, eliminating belly fat is very difficult unless you use a combination of strategies concurrently to attack it from several angles.

How to Lose Fat Around Waist with Diet

Making some simple changes to diet can naturally reduce belly fat.  Here are a few suggestions.

1.  Reduce Carb Intake

Reducing carb intake, especially refined carbs, to 50g per day has been shown to reduce belly naturally.  Just replacing refined carbs with unprocessed starchy carbs is enough to eliminate belly fat.

This also applies to sugar intake as well.  Sodas, candy, chocolate, and other treats all increase abdominal fat.  In addition, refined sugars have been linked to type 2 diabetes, fatty liver disease, heart disease and obesity.   Cutting out refined sugars completely is unrealistic but try to keep these “cheats” to an absolute minimum and once per week at max.

2.  Increase Protein Intake

Having a high protein intake makes burning belly fat much, much easier.  First, protein stimulates release of PYY, also known as the fullness hormone.  In other words, you feel fuller faster while appetite decreases.  Next, protein naturally and safely elevates metabolic rate so you burn more calories at rest.  Lastly, high protein intake helps you retain and build lean muscle mass and burn even more calories.

Foods high in protein include eggs, almonds, broccoli, chicken breast, yogurt, milk, cottage cheese, whey protein, beans and oats.

3.  Keep Alcohol Intake to a Minimum

Although research shows that minimal intake of alcohol like red wine can have health benefits, but it can also be very dangerous to your long term health in larger volumes.  Plus, research clearly indicates a link between excessive alcohol intake and adding belly fat.  At most, restrict alcohol intake to one drink per day.  Obviously, there will be some office parties and festivities where you’ll indulge but try to keep them to a minimum to eliminate belly fat.

How To Lose Fat Around Waist with Exercise

Research clearly shows that burning more calories via increased physical activity burns belly fat.  In fact, simple aerobic exercise both improves overall health and helps burn abdominal fat.  While some health experts advise high intensity workouts, the research is inconclusive.  Plus, jumping into high intensity exercise routines may cause more harm than good.

The truth is, the duration of exercise determines results and dictates fat burning more than intensity.  Studies indicate that 4-5 hours of aerobic exercise (even just walking is better than nothing!) burn fat in all areas of your body and help reduce risk of cardiovascular disease and other chronic illnesses.

How to Lose Fat Around Waist by Sleeping More

Studies consistently reveal that not getting enough sleep correlates strongly with weight gain, including but not limited to belly fat.  The magic threshold appears to be 5 hours of sleep.  In a 16-year study of more than 60,000 women, those who slept less than 5 hours per night had a significantly greater risk of gaining weight than those who got 7 hours or more.  Plus, getting enough sleep helps keep your Cortisol levels balanced which control cravings.

How to Lose Fat Around Waist Even Faster with Tetrogen

Tetrogen’s unique formulation rebalances your metabolic hormones Leptin and Cortisol.  As we age and due to unhealthy diet choices, these vital hormones become unbalanced and stop working normally.  This leads to more cravings, needing to eat more to feel satiated, low energy levels, and a slower metabolism.

Once rebalanced, losing belly fat becomes much easier and requires less sacrifice.  In fact, you can still lose belly fat and hit your target weight while eating the foods you love 20% of the time.  Plus, Tetrogen Night is even formulated with Melatonin to ensure you get a good night’s rest!
