Whether you're striving to get a shapelier body, want to live healthier or "just" lose weight – it's not an easy thing to struggle with, whether we have one or want to avoid it.
Naturist Disha Sathi recently posted on her Instagram account three tips you should focus on if you're struggling with belly fat.

1. Give up sugar altogether: True, it's not an easy thing to do, but according to Dr. Priyanka Rohatgui of one of the largest hospitals in Delhi, India, sugary foods and drinks usually have a high caloric and low nutritional value.
That's not all: when you put more sugar into your body than your body really needs, the liver turns that extra sugar into fat, which is then wrapped around our internal organs. It is also known that excessive consumption of sugar can harm insulin levels in our bodies, thereby harming blood sugar.

2. Add a salad to your meal: especially one that has many green leaves and vegetables in a variety of colors, they have a low caloric value and have many dietary fibers, which in turn cause a great feeling of satiety, which causes us to consume less food and, accordingly, fewer calories.
In addition, the water in vegetables is beneficial for the body's hydration process, and also includes, of course, a variety of vitamins, minerals and a variety of antioxidants that are beneficial for our body.

3. Do 45 minutes of physical activity every day: It is enough to even walk 45 minutes each day to lose your belly fat, since such activity "burns" the oil accumulated in the belly, where it is retained by our body as a source of energy.
