Add more fiber : Foods rich in fiber such as green vegetables, whole grains, nuts and beans Both are very good for getting rid of belly fat. Therefore, adding fiber to the daily diet is essential. Forget the myths: There's no such thing as a "superfood" that burns visceral fat, and there's no specific exercise that can instantly reduce belly fat. Instead, find ways to improve your eating habits and add physical activity each day. Set an average goal each week to align with yourself. Choose foods that contain fat carefully: You may still need to add fat during the process of losing lower belly fat. However, limit the type of saturated fat found in foods of animal origin, coconut oil, palm oil and whole milk.

Don't smoke: Not only does smoking make you more likely to store fat in your belly than your hips and thighs, it's also a risk factor for diabetes, cancer, heart or lung disease. If you don't want to exercise all the time without losing belly fat, give up smoking now. Weightlifting: You can think of hitting the gym instead of running down the beaten track to lose belly fat.
