Best Foods for flat abs

To trim enough belly fat to reveal your developing abs, you’ll probably need to cut back on calories.But that doesn’t mean giving up red meat. Lean cuts of pork, lamb, or beef are loaded with protein to help you stay full longer. They also contain an amino acid that may help burn fat while preserving muscle. A healthy portion is about the size of your fist.

There’s good evidence that eating plenty of whole grains and fiber can help you have a healthy body weight. Get more whole grains by stirring shredded wheat into your favourite cereal, by making your sandwiches with whole-grain bread, or by ordering your sushi with brown rice.

 Food for Flat Abs: Greek Yoghurt

In a study in the International Journal of Obesity, dieters who ate nonfat yogurt lost almost twice as much belly fat as those who didn’t eat yogurt. If you find ordinary yogurt isn’t a satisfying snack, try the Greek variety — it’s thicker and has more protein.

Fat is not off the menu when you’re trying to lose weight. You need some fat to help you build muscles. Just make sure it’s the right kind. Sources of good fats include avocado, nuts, olive oil, and fatty fish, such as salmon.

Fruits and vegetables should take up half your plate. Aim for a wide range of colours to nourish your body with an assortment of plant-based nutrients. These phytochemicals are good for your heart and fight some types of cancer. Plus, filling up on veggies may help you cut back on higher calorie foods.
