You don’t need to waste your time with a supermarket pill, a mail-order “miracle”, or some kind of celebrity diet. If nothing has worked for you until now, what you need is simply a new weight loss system that virtually works all by itself.
That’s why we’ve talked to some of the most well respected nutrition experts and asked for their best strategies to losing weight and gaining a flat belly.
DETOX WITH TEA
A cup of green tea can help you relax and burn fat. It is rich of flavonoids that can significantly reduce stress.
PACK THE RIGHT PROTEIN
A single serving of chicken, turkey, or lamb contains enough tryptophan to promote deep sleep. University of Colorado researchers found that getting enough sleep can reduce calorie intake by 6%, a full 120 calories per day for those consuming the average 2,000 calories per day.
Natural peanut butter packs loads of hunger-fighting fiber, metabolism-boosting protein, and heart-healthy fats. Make our Mediterranean-style banana bread. Mash a medium banana, mix it with natural peanut butter and spread the mix on 100% whole grain toasted bread.
EAT THE RIGHT CARBS
Conventional wisdom advises against carbs before bed, but an Israeli study found that consuming the majority of your carbs at dinner can help you lose significantly more weight than spreading them out through the day.
For example, we usually have a light, fiber-rich, late time snack such as air-popped popcorn. It will curb your sugar cravings and help you wake up rested. Adding seasonings such as cinnamon, black pepper, garlic or olive oil will boost its antioxidant load making a tasty low-calorie snack.
HOW TO BURN MORE FAT
Studies show that adding peppers to your meals can help you burn more fat while you sleep. Try adding some to a serving of fresh cheese for an evening snack.
