Foods that cut belly fat

Foods That Cut Belly Fat

• Ginger: spikes metabolism and reduces hunger
• Turmeric: prevents human fat cells from taking up fat
• Green tea: for 10x extra strength, choose matcha
• Grapefruit: especially red grapefruit. Also lowers cholesterol 
• Apple Cider Vinegar: as little as 1 tbs per day
• Soy: the protein in soy causes abdominal fat to shrink

Foods that Increase Belly Fat

• Milk: the protein (casein) increases abdominal fat
• Meat: many studies meat increases obesity - especially abdominal fat 
• Low calorie sweeteners: tricks the body into overcompensating
• PCBs (pollutants found in fish oil)

Since these are never heated and powdered, they work much better than the processed powdered stuff when it comes to shedding the pounds.
