पोटावरील चरबी नैसर्गिकरित्या कमी करण्यासाठी सोप्या दैनंदिन सवयी

Belly fat is different from the fat on arms or legs. Much of belly fat is called visceral fat — it surrounds important organs like the liver, intestines, and pancreas. Too much visceral fat may increase the risk of diabetes, heart disease, and inflammation.

Your body stores belly fat mainly because of hormones like insulin and cortisol. Insulin rises when we eat too much sugar or eat continuously all day. Cortisol rises during stress and poor sleep.

Simple daily steps: Eat meals at fixed times instead of snacking all day. Leave a gap of 12–14 hours overnight between dinner and breakfast. Drink plain water instead of soda or sweet drinks. Eat more protein: eggs, dal, beans, fish, curd, paneer. Add fibre-rich foods: oats, apples, carrots, beans, and lentils. Walk slowly for 20–30 minutes after meals. Sleep 7–8 hours every night at the same time.

Many people believe doing hundreds of crunches will melt belly fat. This is not true. The body loses fat slowly from many areas together. Walking after meals helps muscles use blood sugar and can lower insulin levels.

Small habits repeated daily are usually more powerful than extreme diets followed only for a few days.
