If you're one of those people who tend to carry weight in their belly, you can do something about it! While hundreds of crunches aren't exactly the answer, what you put in your mouth is. Certain foods are proven to diminish belly fat, like whole grains, MUFAs like avocado, nuts, seeds, and olive oil.

You can also eat eggs, lean protein (especially fish like salmon), and tofu. Fibre-rich vegetables such as greens and beans fight visceral fat around your inner organs, as well as berries like blueberries and raspberries. This is great news! Make one of these delicious dinner recipes tonight, and with each bite, you can feel good that you're doing your body and your belly good.
