6 Ways to Lose Belly Fat Without Exercise In No Time - See more at: http://www.healthyfoodteam.com/6-ways-to-lose-belly-fat-without-exercise-in-no-time

Belly fat around the stomach area is highly recommended by doctors all around the world to eliminate. It can expand and rest on top of your organs which spells disaster. It expands into the abdomen and is also called visceral fat. Visceral fat releases cytokines, which are inflammatory molecules. It also causes the brain to release cortisol, the stress hormone. All of these substances are detrimental to your body and obesity is not your biggest worry. Instead, it actually affects the natural production of insulin and can lead to health issues such as heart disease or Type 2 diabetes.
To eliminate this fat, many people lean towards options like counting calories, controlling their portion intake, and doing cardiovascular exercise. However, some other options which are non-traditional can also help. Some of these include eating carbs, relaxing and shrinking the stomach, and drinking wine. Try some of these tips and lose that belly flab without exercise.

1.Eating Carbs
You may have heard that you should cut carbs. It’s actually quite the opposite and you can lose that belly fat without exercising. Try to consume only dark bread, cereal fiber, couscous, and bulgur wheat and there’s no need to workout. Increasing whole grain consumption actually will naturally reduce the intake of other foods because these are satisfying and makes other foods harder to digest. This will make you fill fuller faster and longer and you will begin to eat less.

2.Eat Dairy
By choosing three servings of dairy food on a daily basis, you can lose more weight than you normally would if you reduced calories or took calcium supplements. Instead, choose cheese, milk, and yogurt daily. According to research, three cups a day for 12 weeks will cause more weight loss than just dieting. Fat cells create cortisol and can cause more belly fat. However, the yogurt halts that and allows you to lose the belly fat faster. Linoleic acid is also in dairy foods which aids in belly fat elimination.

3.SLEEP!
It’s true, if you only sleep six hours a night, you can gain more weight than someone who sleeps eight hours. In case you’re a light sleeper, you need to know that you are at risk to obesity. This is generally due to the fact that when you sleep, the hormones which cause hunger, leptin and gherlin, balance out. If you lack sleep, then these hormones kick into gear and make you have an appetite and makes your stomach not feel full. Additional research shows that women who sleep and wake up at the same time every day don’t have as much of the excessive belly fat as other women. If you have bad sleeping habits, the body will start to produce cortisol and other hormones that affect fat storage. Once you start to sleep well, you’ll notice a difference.

4.Start Drinking Wine
When a woman kicks back a beer or two, a glass of wine or two, or a cocktail or two on a daily basis actually weigh less. This is because when women drink, they don’t eat as much. Also, women do not break down alcohol as efficiently and then fewer calories are actually burned.

5.Drink Water
To lose weight, you have to drink water. In fact, if you drink two cups of water before eating, you might actually lose weight faster because you feel fuller. Also, avoid all the sugary drinks and save the calories by just drinking water and staying hydrated. You will keep yourself from overeating and this will help your system flush out some of the toxins through the kidneys. This helps all your organs in healthy working conditions.

6.Eliminate Sugar
The best choice for eliminating belly fat is to eat whole grains, veggies, and proteins rather than processed foods. Also, try to add flavor to oatmeal, coffee or tea with cinnamon instead of sugar. This actually helps to balance blood sugar levels. Oatmeal and cinnamon powder slows the rate of food exiting the stomach which results in you feeling fuller longer.
So with these tips, you can change your diet and lose weight. The best part is that you don’t necessarily have to exercise if you don’t want to in order to lose that belly fat. There’s no reason you shouldn’t change your lifestyle for the better.
