Foods That Can Help To Flatten Your Stomach And Make You Look Younger It is great to be able to address your body issues and hopefully flatten your tummy, but what about your skin. Let’s be honest, when people talk to you they don’t talk to your tummy do they? It is your skin and face that they see once they are up close so surely it’s a good idea to put as much effort into our skin and facial muscles as our bodies.The good thing is that many of the foods that are good for your skin are also beneficial for weight loss and maintaining your body’s cellular structure as a whole. I’ll write a little about three favorites before enticing you with a couple of recipes.Avocado. Avocado is packed full of good oils and Vitamin E. The benefits of this range from cardiovascular health through to protection from sun damage. I like to substitute butter with it on my crackers and if topped with smoked salmon and cucumber, not only is it a delicious treat but one packed with essential fats that your body needs. Choose a wholegrain cracker or even toast and it is a healthy snack that’s hard to beat. I also find that it is very easy to digest so I never get bloated eating something like this. Citrus FruitWe all know how good oranges, lemons and limes are for us. They are a great source of Vitamin C which your body needs to produce collagen, the stuff that keeps you looking young! Whilst you can eat these as part of your 5 a day, you can

also cook with lemon juice perhaps. Try baking your favorite fish in the oven with lemon juice and herbs. Simply place the fish on a piece of foil large enough to wrap the fish (and seal).Sprinkle liberally with lemon juice, salt and pepper and a drizzle of olive oil, wrap and bake for about 20 minutes. If you serve this with a leaf salad with orange slices mixed through it’s a wonderful fresh meal as well as one high in vitamin C.

TunaTuna is very high in selenium which protects the skins cells from free radicals and also serves to preserve the existing collagen within your skin. Of course it also has those fish oils which are undeniably good for you. You could cook a piece of tuna in the method above but personally, I like to sear it on all sides leaving it raw in the centre. You won’t want too much of it if it’s cooked this way but it’s delicious, freshness is the key if you’re going for tuna.

Foods You Should Avoid If You Want To Get A Flat Stomach. In the same way that there are foods that are beneficial in both anti-aging and getting a flat stomach, there are those that should be avoided.White carbohydrates are a killer. We know they don’t help our digestion or weight loss and cause spikes in insulin production which can cause cravings, but what about our skin? Well, when your body releases insulin it fuses collagen and elastin within your skin which in turn reduces the elasticity and then of course is the onset of wrinkles. Wholegrain carbs are the way to go for both good skin health and body health.Overall, it is easy to see that eating foods as close to their natural form is a good approach. If we eat a good mixture of these you will see improvements to your appearance and also will feel better. If your aim is to flatten your stomach fast you will find it happens much more quickly if you adopt a lifestyle overall including exercises and good nutritionally sound foods.
