Levels of obesity around the world are at all-time highs, and every day it seems like there’s some new diet, or some other new magic bullet solution, that will help people get rid of that unwanted fat once and for all. But as we all know, a lot of these solutions are bogus, and some are downright counterproductive. How do you cut through the noise and find the solutions that actually work?
This confusion about what works versus what does not is compounded by another problem: It’s a simple medical fact that women tend to put on weight more easily than men do, and have harder time getting rid of it. Luckily, we’re going to explore three proven solutions that are backed by science, and have helped women get rid of unwanted fat.
1. Clean Diet
Yes, exercise is important, but the key to losing weight is always going to be diet first and foremost. Eating plenty of vegetables, fruits, low-glycemic index carbs (sweet potatoes, for example), high quality proteins, and good fats like walnuts is a good start. But oftentimes, what you choose not to do in life has just as much, if not more of an impact that what you do choose to do.
Make the decision to reduce the amount of sugar in your diet. It’s sugar more than anything else that makes people fat, and nowadays people eat far too much of it. “Diet” sodas have never helped anyone lose weight, and there’s nothing healthy about them. Drink more water and green tea instead. After a few weeks, you won’t even miss the taste of soda.
The modern diet in most Western countries also includes far too many omega-6 fatty acids, which can make you put on additional pounds. Reduce the amount of vegetable oils and polyunsaturated fats in your diet as much as possible. Omega-3 fats, like those found in extra virgin olive oil or fish, however, are quite healthy for you.
Okay, so now you’re eating better and exercising. The good news is that you’re at least halfway there. But sometimes, the little extra things we do in a diet program that make a significant difference. Let’s examine these nutritional hacks in more detail.
