Suggest Treatments To Get Rid Of The Belly Fat

Hello, I have been trying to loose my belly fat for a few years now. Someone told me my stomach was bloated and nothing can get rid of it. Others say Im just made this way. Recently had a physical and I m in good health for a 54yr old. Is there something I can take or do to get rid of the tire belly?

Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
Excess belly fat(also called android obesity) is a predictor of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, and some cancers and is is worth fighting against.Possible causes of belly fats may include: poor feeding, sedentary lifestyle,hormonal disorders, genetic factors. I will suggest you try the following home measures which may help you cut down on belly fats:
-Don’t eat sugar and avoid sugar-sweetened drinks
-Eating more protein is a great long-term strategy to reduce belly fat
-Cut carbohydrates from your diet
-Eat foods rich in fiber, especially viscous fiber
-Exercise is very effective at reducing belly fat
-Track your foods and figure out exactly what and how much you are eating
-Eat only when hungry
Belly fat loss will however be a progressive process.So, you need time, sacrifice and patience.
If theses measures do not help, you see your Doctor for a hormonal work.
Hope this will help
Best regards
