Don’t Go On A Diet; Instead, Try These 12 Superfoods
If you want to burn fat, eat more! Yes, that's the catch. And that's why we've curated a list of fat-reducing superfoods for your aid. Take a look.
Unlike what is commonly believed, eating less doesn't necessarily reduce fat, but consuming more nutrient-rich food does. Going on a diet means restricting the food, which eventually kills your metabolism.
If you make your body suffer by making it starve, it will reduce your metabolic rate, so that the existing stores of energy are not used up. Moreover, if you continue to eat less, it will lead to burning of your muscle tissue and that will give the visceral fat which you are trying to remove, an advantage instead.
And more the visceral fat, which churns out hormones and inflammatory substances that affect the production of insulin, the more you are inviting troubles like diabetes. So, how to reduce fats with foods?
Instead of getting stuck in the vicious cycle of diet and more fat, switch over to a food habit which burns your fat and also keeps you healthy. It's a simple, straight process. Stick to it.
