Eat MORE of THESE
Who wants to think of deprivation? Starvation? Your goal isn't to just burn belly fat, but it's to burn belly fat FOREVER!
Who wants a quick fix diet that doesn't last forever?
At Mohr Results, we focus on everything you SHOULD eat and include when trying to lose belly fat and even when just trying to be the BEST physically and mentally.
So today we're talking about 3 nutrients you're not eating enough of and just how you can eat more, through real foods, since no one thinks in terms of nutrients.
Our bodies make vitamin D from sunlight, but most people don't get out enough or when we do, we slather our bodies in suntan lotion so sun has no chance to hit our skin (I'm not saying don't use sunblock, by the way).
Believe it or not, Vitamin D deficiency is starting to resurface. This expert I spoke with, Dr. Robert Heaney, said his data suggest 6098% of teenage girls are deficient
The problem is it is difficult to get from foods milk is fortified, canned and wild salmon are good options, sardines, anchovies, egg yolks, liver, and only a few other foods provide decent quantities. Unfortunately you're probably not licking your lips thinking of sardines, washed down with a nice glass of milk, are you? Me neither.
First, next time you go to your doctor, have them measure blood levels of Vitamin D experts seem to suggest that levels should be at least 40 ng/dL for optimal health. At Mohr Results, our goal is not to simply eat enough to prevent malnutrition, but rather aim to optimize health.
And this is one nutrient it might be wise to add as a supplement (1000 IU's/day, unless your health care provider tells you differently). Of course do try to include some of those foods,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], too, because you get other powerful nutrients in addition to D when eating whole foods. A favorite product of ours is Nordic Naturals UltimateOmega with D (high concentration of omega3s + 1000 IU's of vitamin D). A true win win. Of course this is in conjunction with a great variety of foods that provide loads of other nutrients too.
This one probably won't surprise you. It all started when scientists realized Eskimo's had an incredibly low rate of heart disease, yet ate a diet that was about 70% fat. When they realized where the fat came from (primarily seal,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which are high in omega 3s), the wheels started turning.
Now, over 15,000 scientific studies later,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], voila! We've got a winner on our hands!
The American Heart Association suggests eating at 12 oz of fatty fish per week (such as salmon, tuna, sea bass,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], etc). Fish is the best source of omega3 fats, but without getting into technical details, you can also get omega3s from other foods, such as walnuts, almonds, and flax seed/oil. They're not exactly the same, even though they're all under the umbrella. But all are a healthy part of the diet and you should be eating more of them! If you're allergic, well, then stick with vegetarian sources of omega3s.
Some of the benefits of omega3s are similar to those listed above for Vitamin D.
