Watermelon

A study conducted by specialists from the University of Kentucky confirmed that regular consumption of watermelon juice helps to reduce the percentage of body fat, as well as reduce cholesterol levels. An excellent reason to enjoy this giant berry!

Probiotic Yoghurt

One of our favorite belly-busting food is Probiotic Yogurt. A single portion of yogurt with probiotics (and, of course, without sugar) helps to reduce body fat for 3-4% in a one month. 

This is based on the latest researches from the University of Manitoba (Canada). Probiotics help maintain the balance of “right” bacteria in the intestines and helps its normal operation. And you can easily make yogurt at home with yogurt starters.

Papaya

This fruit is not very popular, and meanwhile, it contains many proteolytic enzymes that facilitate and speed up digestion.

Also, these fruits contain a lot of fiber, as well as vitamins A and C – it is very useful and tasty fruits.

Asparagus

At first, only one portion of asparagus contains 3 grams of fiber – enough to keep you feeling full for several hours. Secondly, asparagus contains the amino acids asparagine, which makes it a natural diuretic – and again helps to remove excess fluid from the body.

Chamomile tea

Stress effects badly not only on our health, but also on our bodies: the stress hormone cortisol slows down our metabolism, and we, tend to choose more harmful and high-calorie foods.

At the same time, chamomile extract soothes us, helps reduce stress, and also helps to deal with bloating.

So if you have hard work – drink a cup of chamomile tea in the middle of the day!

Dark chocolate

Dark chocolate with a high cocoa content (60% and above) is not only tasty but also a very healthy delicacy.

Cocoa contains antioxidants that help to reduce cravings for sweets and high-calorie foods, as well as stimulate digestion. People who regularly consume dark chocolate, as a rule, have a lower body mass index and more easily lose weight than those whose diet does not include this delicacy.
