Drizzle This Oil for a Flat Belly
Archives: Diet and Nutrition
Are last year’s pants feeling a little tight? You may want to add more olive oil to your diet.
In a recent study of overweight people, a diet comprised of 30 to 40 percent monounsaturated fats (primarily from olive oil) helped to thwart tummy expanding over time. What’s more, this Mediterranean-style diet helped maintain better insulin sensitivity – a key factor in the prevention of diabetes, heart disease, obesity, and cancer.
Keep in mind that you’re not going to cinch your midsection just by eating more olive oil. For serious tummy trimming, the equation is simple: a healthy diet plus extra exercise.
