Introduction
Belly fat, even saying those two words sends a shiver up most most of our spines. Maybe its because having fat on other body parts doesn’t seem so bad, you could have fat thighs or a fuller bottom but fat on the stomach ….“Arrrrrrgh”!
Why is that?
In one sense there’s no covering it up, its there for all to see you’ve got a pouch and a problem.But apart from the stigma of having a pot belly, science is showing belly fat has other nasty things up its sleeve. Its means that visceral fat is packed around your internal organs, potentially contributing to a whole host of problems, including heart disease, diabetes, kidney problems and more.
But, did you know there’s a good side to belly fat, “Mother Nature” actually puts it there for a reason; to keep your insulin and cortisol levels under control. Simply put, having a bulging belly is caused by the harmful combination of everyday stress, binge eating, and excess cortisol; all conspiring to keep you overweight, tired, and thick around the middle.
So, what can we do about it?
1 – Reduce Cortisol Levels – One good way to control the levels of cortisol and insulin in your body is to reduce stress. You can try meditation, yoga or other types of exercise. cardiovascular exercise is great because it will help control those hormones and increase your metabolism at the same time while you're reducing your stress.
2 – Give Your Liver A Break – You may not know it but your liver is your best friend not just because its a very important organ in the body; but also because it metabolises fat. So, give it a break and let it do its job properly. Things that stress out your liver are, processed foods, too many carbohydrates; in general, all forms of sugar, artificial sweeteners, caffeine, trans fats and soda.
