The same way cocaine and other hard substances go straight to your brain, that’s the same way some foods go straight to your belly and get stored as fat, and no one wants that.
Belly fat has been linked to increasing the risk factors for so many illnesses, including; heart disease, diabetes and Alzheimer’s, just to mention a few. Where your body stores calories is completely dependent on the hormones, and some foods particularly trigger the exact the right hormonal reaction for turning food into fat.
Recent research has identified the 4 most common foods that instantly turn to fat, and the tricky thing about these foods is that they’re so delicious and hard to resist.
1. Potato Chips
Apart from the fact that potato chips are filled with saturated fats, which end up causing abdominal fat gain, their main negative effect on the body is that they can never get you satisfied. They just put you in a position where you keep wanting more and more and before you know it, you’ve accumulated much more belly fat than you would have ever anticipated.
Studies have shown that daily consumption of chips can add nearly two pounds of flab to your body every four years. This tells you that if you cut out chips, you could lose more than half a pound of fat directly from your belly, without even starting a weight loss program.
2. Diet Soda
They tell you that if you want to maintain your weight, all you need to do is to cut out sugary beverages and replace it with diet versions. Well, this is a common misconception that you need to correct with immediate effect.
Recent studies have found that people who indulge in drinking diet sodas often get a wider waist circumference over time. This means regular diet soda drinkers have a higher risk of accumulating belly flab than those who don’t indulge in the beverage.
3. Pizza
During my research, I saw a quote that got me really smiling. It said and I quote “Pizza, a night at the hut, a lifetime in the gut”. Pizza has a large concentration of saturated fat that often turns to into belly fat.
Researchers have found that unlike other fats, saturated fats are more likely to be stored in the stomach. So next time you’re having a pizza evening, think about how much fat you’ll be adding to your tummy. You’ll probably realize that it’s really not worth it.
4. Fruit Juice
You’re meant to believe that they come from a natural source and so there could be nothing possibly wrong with them. Well, the truth is even though a 100 percent fruit juice is still better than sugary drinks, they still pack up to about 36 grams of sugar per cup, which is still really bad for your stomach.
Conclusion
You can take control and choose today how flat you’d prefer your stomach to be. Remember, to achieve this, you’re going to need to cut these foods out of your diet.
