Your fave breakfast meal could help you BLAST away tummy fat. Here’s how…
They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but it turns out, this popular breakfast staple could help you blast away your tummy fat.
In fact, scientists in Japan say this simple step could help you get rid of visceral fat, which is located deep in your belly that’s wrapped around your vital organs.
Having too much fat around your stomach can lead to a number of health issues, such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease, as well as cancer and early death.
How your favourite breakfast food could help you banish stubborn stomach fat
Japanese scientists studied 50 participants, half of who consumed whole wheat grains – such as whole-grain-toast – for 12 weeks.
The other half of the group were given refined wheat breads. Blood samples and CT scans were performed every six weeks and the results were incredible.
It turns out, wholegrain wheat bread decreased levels of visceral fat. Whereas, those eating refined wheat bread showed no changes.
“Whole grain wheat bread diet led to significant and safe reductions in VFA in subjects with BMI ≥ 23 kg/m2,” read the study notes.
“Whole grain wheat bread diet may contribute to preventing visceral fat obesity.”
So there you have it. Wholegrain wheat bread for brekkie could blast your tummy sag.
