What are the absolute BEST foods for the fastest fat loss? Here are the top 3 foods to FLATTEN your belly.
Tim Ernst – Founder of F40 Fat Loss Formula
Protein rich foods are great for flattening your belly and overall health; however, it’s important to remember that high fat foods are just as important towards weight loss and health. In fact, protein and good quality fatty foods combined together will help you reach your weight loss goals even quicker than most diets.
Having said that, here are 3 foods that will flatten your belly.
1. Eggs
Eggs have been touted as “nature’s perfect food,” “one of the healthiest foods on the planet,” “nature’s multivitamin,” and most simply, “incredible!”
You can add to that list “one of a ketogenic dieter’s best friends.”
Eggs contain virtually zero carbs, and they contain healthy fats, and they are a good source of high-quality protein.
Eggs are also packed with a variety of vitamins and minerals.
They also contain some “bonus” nutrients, including choline, lutein, and zeaxanthin. These nutrients boost brain health and cognitive function, eye health and vision, and heart health.
For example, choline has been shown to boost the body’s production of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), which is a very important growth factor for the brain and central nervous system, and it plays a key role in cognitive function, mood, and mental health.
Meanwhile, lutein and zeaxanthin have been referred to as “natural sunglasses” due to their ability to shield the eyes from potentially damaging UV rays.
Speaking of which, lutein has also been shown to act as a “natural sunscreen,” protecting the skin in a similar fashion.
When you go shopping for eggs, have you ever asked, “What did the chickens eat?”
You should. After all, the ol’ saying, “you are what you eat,” applies to animals too.
It’s best to choose eggs from pasture-raised hens, which have been shown to have 2 ½ times more omega-3 fats and less than half the ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fats as conventional eggs.
2. Cold-water Fatty Fish
Cold-water fatty fish are the best dietary sources of the all-important omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA, which are well-known for supporting:
- Heart health
- Brain health, cognitive function, and mood
- Eye health and vision
- Skin health
- Immune function
- Metabolic function and body composition
- Promoting a healthy inflammatory response
Recent research has shown that DHA and EPA may also have anti-aging properties.
In fact, diets rich in these omega-3s can protect, and in some cases, lengthen telomeres, which are a key marker of aging (longer is better).
Even more, research shows that supplementation with EPA and DHA increases the activity of telomerase, which is an enzyme that maintains, lengthens, and restores telomeres.
Pretty cool stuff, right?
At a minimum, it’s a good idea to eat fatty fish at least twice a week.
Here are some of our favorite cold-water fatty fish:
- Anchovies
- Sardines
- Herring
- Salmon
- Mackerel
- Oysters are also a great source of DHA and EPA, but believe it or not, they contain carbs.
3. Poultry
Like beef, poultry, especially fattier cuts like thighs and legs, is a staple of the ketogenic diet.
Like beef, eggs, and dairy, it’s a good idea to invest in the highest quality poultry that you can afford.
Just like the nutritional content of eggs is influenced by the hen’s diet, the meat is as well. In other words, pasture-raised chicken is going to have a slightly healthier nutritional profile than chicken from conventional birds.
Like beef, poultry is more than fat and protein. For instance, chicken also provides vitamins B3, B6, and B12, selenium, phosphorus, and pantothenic acid.
Chicken is also a good source of choline. Like B12, choline plays an important role in helping the body neutralize potentially toxic compounds that are linked to poor cognitive function and declining brain health.
Another advantage of poultry is that it’s incredibly diverse, and you’ll find a ton of delicious keto recipes including chicken. Seriously, there are hundreds of them from stuffed chicken to bacon-wrapped chicken to jerk chicken to chicken pot pie and more!
