It’s been said, “you are what you eat.” <\/em>The fastest way to lose belly fat is eating certain foods that will boost and regulate your body’s metabolic rate.<\/p>\n By:\u00a0<\/strong> Tim Ernst – Founder of Body Blitz Max<\/a>, 180 Muscle<\/a> and Barbell\/Dumbbell Ripped Muscle Complexes<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n The thyroid is responsible for setting the body\u2019s metabolic rate.<\/p>\n It dictates how many calories you burn for every physiologic, metabolic, and physical task.<\/p>\n In addition to being one of the master controllers of metabolism and calorie burning, the thyroid contributes to mental and emotional well being, influences cognitive function, and even impacts sexual desire and function.<\/p>\n\r\n <\/a>Almost every diet out there relies on ketosis for fat loss! So...<\/p>\n How exactly do you get into ketosis? Simple!<\/p>\n All you have to do is eat the keto recipes in this brand new FREE cookbook called:<\/p>\n The Wicked Good Ketogenic Diet Cookbook<\/a> <=<\/p>\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n Below are 10 fat burning foods that are the fastest way to lose belly fat and BOOST your Thyroid.<\/p>\n Brazil nuts are a particularly rich source of selenium, and research has shown that Brazil nuts are more effective than supplements at raising blood levels of selenium.<\/p>\n But Brazil nuts aren\u2019t a one-trick pony, as they are also a good source of magnesium and copper, two additional thyroid support nutrients.<\/p>\n Iodine is a fundamental building block in the production of thyroid hormone, and if you don\u2019t have enough in your diet, thyroid function will be compromised.<\/p>\n Iodine deficiency is one of the leading causes of thyroid dysfunction.<\/p>\n Approximately 40% of the world\u2019s population is at risk for iodine deficiency.<\/p>\n Just like wild salmon, eggs are one of the few good dietary sources of vitamin D, but that\u2019s not all.<\/p>\n Eggs are a very good source of two more important nutrients for optimal thyroid function: selenium and iodine.<\/p>\n Just three eggs provide 84% of recommended daily values for selenium, 54% for iodine, and 33% for vitamin D.<\/p>\n It’s crucial to ensure adequate vitamin D consumption through dietary and supplemental sources.<\/p>\n The best dietary sources of vitamin D are fatty fish, especially wild salmon, which also happens to be a good source of iodine.<\/p>\n What\u2019s more, wild salmon contains omega-3 fats, which help support optimal thyroid function both directly (e.g., enhancement of thyroid action) and indirectly (e.g., promoting a healthy inflammatory response and enhancing immunity).<\/p>\n Like sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds are a rich source of micronutrients that play a key role in thyroid health and thyroid hormone conversion.<\/p>\n Pumpkin seeds are a very good source of copper, providing 48% of the recommended daily intake in just a half-cup serving.<\/p>\n What\u2019s more, pumpkin seeds are also a good source of both zinc and iron, providing 23% and 16% of the daily recommended intake, respectively, per half-cup.<\/p>\n Sesame seeds are packed with essential nutrients that support healthy thyroid function.<\/p>\n They are an excellent source of copper and a good source of iron, and inadequate levels of both copper and iron have been linked to low concentrations of active thyroid hormone, T3.<\/p>\n Just a single cup of cooked spinach is an excellent source of the following nutrients that have all been shown to support thyroid health and function (percentage of daily recommended intake):<\/p>\n \u2022 Magnesium (39%)<\/p>\n \u2022 Iron (36%)<\/p>\n \u2022 Copper (34%)<\/p>\n \u2022 Zinc (12%)<\/p>\n \u2022 Vitamin A (105%)<\/p>\n Beef from pasture-raised cattle is packed with nutrients that help support healthy thyroid function.<\/p>\n In fact, grass-fed beef is a very good source of:<\/p>\n \u2022 Vitamin B12<\/p>\n \u2022 Omega-3 fatty acids<\/p>\n \u2022 Selenium<\/p>\n \u2022 Zinc<\/p>\n What\u2019s more, a 3-ounce serving of beef is also a good source of iron, providing 16% of the recommended daily value.<\/p>\n While many foods in the diet contain iron, it is not always easily absorbed depending on the source.<\/p>\n For instance, iron from plant-based foods (i.e., non-heme iron) is not well absorbed. On the other hand, heme iron, which is found in beef and other animal-based foods, is much more readily absorbed.<\/p>\n Not only that, combining sources of heme iron with non-heme iron (e.g., beef plus veggies) increases the amount of non-heme iron absorbed.<\/p>\n This is often referred to as the \u201cmeat factor\u201d of iron absorption.<\/p>\n Last on the list, but certainly not least, are fermented foods.<\/p>\n Gut health and the gut microbiome can play a tremendous role in thyroid health, and gut dysbiosis (i.e., a lack of healthy bacteria) can have wide-ranging negative effects on thyroid function.<\/p>\n This is why it\u2019s very important to support gut and thyroid health by eating plenty of probiotic-rich foods, and three of the top options are kombucha tea, sauerkraut (and other fermented vegetables), and Greek yogurt (and other fermented dairy, like Kefir).<\/p>\n Besides sesame seeds, cashews are the next best whole food source of copper, providing 98% of the recommended intake in a quarter cup serving.<\/p>\n Cashews are also a good source of both magnesium and zinc, providing 29% and 21% of the recommended daily intake, respectively, per quarter cup serving.<\/p>\n These two foods from the sea are excellent sources for a number of key nutrients involved in thyroid health and function.<\/p>\n For example, a 4-ounce serving of shrimp packs the following (percentage of daily recommended intake):<\/p>\n \u2022 Selenium (102%)<\/p>\n \u2022 Vitamin B12 (78%)<\/p>\n \u2022 Copper (32%)<\/p>\n \u2022 Iodine (31%)<\/p>\n \u2022 Zinc (17%)<\/p>\n \u2022 Vitamin A (11%).<\/p>\n \u2022 Zinc (16%)<\/p>\n What\u2019s more, shrimp are also a good source of omega-3 fats, which, as previously mentioned, have both a direct and indirect impact on thyroid function.<\/p>\n Besides sea vegetables, scallops are the next richest whole food source of iodine, providing 90% of the recommended daily intake in a 4-ounce serving.<\/p>\n What\u2019s more, scallops also contain a number of other nutrients involved in optimizing thyroid function:<\/p>\n \u2022 Vitamin B12 (102%)<\/p>\n \u2022 Selenium (45%)<\/p>\n \u2022 Zinc (16%)<\/p>\n \u2022 Magnesium (10%)<\/p>\n The ketogenic diet is the hottest diet of 2018 because it helps you quickly lose stubborn fat\u2026 it reduces fat storing inflammation\u2026 it helps you live longer and avoid today\u2019s most deadly diseases.<\/p>\n But there are\u00a0several<\/em>\u00a0problems that accompany a “traditional”\u00a0high fat keto diet:<\/p>\n Bottom line:<\/strong><\/p>\n Permanent\u00a0ketosis is not healthy, fun, OR realistic for anybody to follow long term, which is exactly why there\u2019s a new, upgraded version that produces rapid results in only 14 days<\/p>\nFood Hack #1 Brazil Nuts<\/strong><\/h3>\n
