At the end of July, you would like to say goodbye to this little belly that prevents you from being comfortable in a jersey? Good news: to deflate quickly, it would be enough to remove this bad morning habit, reveals Alexandra Murcier, dietician-nutritionist.
Exit sugar as soon as it rises
In addition to a quality sleep and good stress management (stress stimulates the production of cortisol, a hormone at the origin of sweet cravings), betting on a balanced breakfast from raising is essential to hope to find a flat stomach. Thus, you will have to abandon your favorite sandwiches (bread-butter-bonding), in favor of a more complete meal.
“To find a flattest belly, the ideal is to consume in the morning a breakfast with low and protein glycemic index which will allow the blood sugar to be regulated on the day and to avoid the desires of sugar”, confirms Alexandra Murcier, dietitian-nutritionist.
“So we avoid very processed foods and rich in sugar in the morning – excessive sugar consumption disturbs the bonus of blood sugar, the microbiota, which plays directly in digestive comfort – and we replace them with eggs, avocado with wholemeal bread or buckwheat bread for example”, underlines the expert.
