Five Foods To Eat For Breakfast To Burn Belly Fat

 

Breakfast is considered to be the most important meal of the day. What one eats for breakfast determines the food choices that one makes throughout the day. A healthier diet during the rest of the day can make a lot of difference to your overall health but it cannot be achieved by simply subtracting or adding a food item or two. The core principles of weight loss; healthy eating and exercise; should be properly followed so that the results are satisfactory and long lasting.

Since we are focusing specifically on the stomach region, weight loss principles need to be oriented towards the belly so that proper weight loss happens. Adding protein and fiber to your

diet and minimizing carbs is key to having a proportional belly. Here are some other breakfast options that will help you achieve your goal of a healthy and fit body with a lean torso.

Yogurt

Studies have shown how people whose intake of yogurt was more frequent in comparison to those who did not include it in their diet lost more weight and maintained lean muscle mass. This observation highlights the importance of nutrients such as calcium for weight loss. Appropriate amounts of calcium in the diet doesn’t affect the muscles, helping the body maintain muscles which aid in burning calories and cuts out fat. Yogurt is also rich in protein, which is a key element that helps with body fat. It should however be duly noted that fruit yogurts contain too much sugar and healthy options such as Greek Yogurt should be consumed.

Upma

Upma is rich in fiber and ticks the first box for a healthy weight loss dietary option. It also contains semolina which is naturally low in fat and helps with good cholesterol as it contains good fat. The only thing to be kept in mind is that it should be cooked in less oil so that the nutritional benefits aren’t nullified by the excessive fat that can creep in.

Eggs

Bursting with essential nutrients and low on carbs or fats, eggs are the perfect choice for a breakfast. Eating them scrambled, poached or as an omelet with vegetables is highly recommended as it makes for a low fat, filling breakfast. It is also important to keep in mind that no matter how healthy the breakfast option is, the calories should be duly regulated.

Porridge

Carbohydrates with a low glycemic Index, oats are versatile and can be combined with milk for a power-packed, healthy breakfast. They can also be consumed with yogurt or cold milk after cooling overnight and adding fruits of your choice can add the taste you crave. For sweetness, honey is a good option instead of sugar.

Moong Dal Chilla

Moong dal is basically split chick pea which is a very rich source of fiber. In addition to digestive fibers, it also contains protein in suitable amounts, making it a great breakfast option that would aid weight loss. You can add vegetables to the batter so that the meal becomes healthier, more nutritious and filling.
