A lot of women around the world undergo the stress of losing
belly fat to get that hourglass figure. The following nine nutrients will help
you shrink that belly fat.
Cinnamon
Researchers have found out that the active compound
Methylhydroxy Chalcone Polymer (MHCP) in cinnamon makes the fat cell more
receptive to insulin. High insulin levels trigger the body to store more fat,
especially in your midsection, so consuming a seasoning like cinnamon helps
maintain healthy levels of insulin, which is a great way to combat belly fat.
Grapes
They contain calcium pyruvate, a substance that occurs
naturally and is made in your body during digestion and metabolism. A study
done by the University of Pittsburgh found out that obese women lost 48% more
fat when following a calorie-restricted diet with supplemental calcium
pyruvate.

Caraway seeds

gas and bloating because they are a powerful digestive aid. They help eliminate
gas due to their carbamate properties.
Green tea
It has the main components of Polyphenol Epigallocatechin
Gallate, which has thermogenic properties to help increase fat oxidation. Green
tea is also loaded with powerful antioxidants, which help decrease inflammation
and fight off disease and infection.
Omega 3 rich foods
Studies have shown that they keep stress hormones cortisol
and adrenaline from peaking, help the body from chronic stress, and help
prevent increased fat storage.
Onions
They contain quercetin, a powerful flavonoid which improves
the immune system and promotes cardiovascular health and also fights belly fat.
Dark Chocolate
Studies have indicated that a high level of resveratrol in
your diet may boost metabolism, helping you to burn more calories. It’s found
in red grapes, red wine, and dark chocolate.
Oranges
Vitamin c helps reduce stress hormone levels and returns the
stress hormone cortisol to normal levels after a stressful situation. This
reduction in cortisol may help to prevent increased belly-fat storage.
Drinking water
Research has shown that an increase in fluid volume in the
body may help to promote the breakdown of fat.
