Info of the Day: Avocados! Help get rid of Belly Fat!

Adding avocado to your weight loss plan can boost your metabolism and speed up the
process to get rid of belly fat. The good fats found in this creamy fruit speed up fat
burning within our bodies. The antioxidant glutathione boosts the liver and the liver is
what controls just how fast we burn fat.


There are several ways to incorporate avocados in to your diet as they go with many meal
options. You can eat them just as they are, add them to eggs, omelets, put them on a
sandwich, add them to a salad, and of course make guacamole with them. Add a serving
a day to rid belly fat.

    A serving of avocado is 2 tablespoons, which is probably about 2 thin slices.

    I LOVE avocados. I was always wary of putting them on my salad tho because of the high fat content. Thanks for the info.

    No food helps get rid of belly fat.

    You can't reduce fat from any specific part of your body.

    Regular exercise reduces overall fat and eventually belly fat.

    Not saying that avacado are not a good healthy fat to add to your diet but I'm starting to see a remarkable trend in people posting threads about foods that reduce belly fat and it's just not true.
  • True that you can't spot reduce or get rid of belly "fat" you can however decrease belly bloat big time and avocados are a good tool in that due to the fats and fiber. Cutting back on sodium, processed carbs etc... also helps. So even if you don't see it on the scale you will feel it in your jeans and that feels good :)

    BUZZZKILLLLLLL. WAHH. WAHHHH. DEBBIE DOWNERRRRR!

    :laugh:

    I'm just kidding. lol You're totally right. The sensational headlines are gratuitous, for sure. But I like the shift away from "cut all dietary fat!" back to "incorporate healthy fats". But yeah...the misleading "cut belly fat" stuff can get dropped. Good call.

    Okay, Okay geass!.. :grumble: lol

    Let's not mis-interpret... I'll break it down in rich dummy terms: (kidding :bigsmile: don't be mad :huh: ) LOL

    It says, Avocados "HELP" and that; they are a good "ADDITION" to ur weight loss plan; and that they "CAN" boost you metabolism and speed up the process.
