Nutrition tips for a flat stomach

A flat stomach is everyone’s dream but not everyone’s reality. For many of us, the reflection staring back from the mirror does not even need to scream before we notice the bulging snack pouch attracting attention; when we actually want it to disappear forever. If that’s your agony too, read on to find some great stomach flattening tips.

People world over try various methods to get rid of the increasing fat around the waist line. But with present day lifestyles it is becoming all the more difficult to do so.
There are two approaches to deal with the flabby stomach problem. One is to enhance your body’s metabolism and ensure complete body fitness. The second approach is to focus on the specific area i.e the stomach and muscles surrounding it and work on them.
While exercise helps to flatten the belly with evident results, having the right kind of food and balanced diet helps keep the fat build up under check, complementing the benefits of exercising. Here are some stomach flattening tips on the right approach to nutrition that have proven to be helpful in gaining the much desired toned look:

Nutrition tips:
  1. Be a conscious eater: Knowing what to eat and what to avoid, helps you regulate your intake of undesired calories. While proteins, vitamins and minerals top the list of ‘must haves’ every day; carbohydrates and fats fall in the ‘try and restrict’ category.
  2. Regulate the fat intake: Fats should form less than 30 percent of your total calorie intake; which is why it is important to be selective in the type of fats you consume. Having fats through nuts and dry fruits helps; and so does avoiding those in chips and fried foods. Switching to low fat, double-toned milk and avoiding the regular ice cream guy is also a good idea.
  3. Carbohydrates are essential: if you thought giving carbohydrates a complete miss was a wise decision, you need to think again. Carbohydrates are not just essential for proper brain activity and muscle function; they also help avoiding water loss from the body. Therefore, selecting your carbs and preferring whole wheat and grains over white bread rice and pasta would make a better choice.
  4. Water: water is an important component in flushing away toxins from the body and improving body metabolism. At least eight to 10 glasses of water are a must on a daily basis.
  5. Small meals: contrary to conventional belief it is best to have six small meals spanning through the day instead of three major ones. This not only helps overcome food cravings but also enhances body metabolism.
  6. Water therapy: Having 8-10 glasses of water every day helps flush away toxins from the body.
According to many fitness experts; diet plans or fitness regimes do not work in isolation. Instead, they work best when followed in combination, inculcating lifestyle changes and ensuring the results obtained are long term. For information on fitness tips to tone the stomach flab read

Nokia brings back the "8110" that appeared in d matrix

It’s easy to forget that Nokia was once one of the biggest phone companies in the world. In 1999, it was so popular that one of its devices, the Nokia 8110, appeared in the first Matrix movie. Now, the curvy handset nicknamed the banana phone is back. As well as unveiling a slew of  new handsets  at MWC, HMD Global, which creates Nokia-branded phones under license, showed off the new Nokia 8110 4G at the event. As it did with last year’s  Nokia 3310 , the company has updated the classic handset for modern users, though it is still a relatively cheap feature phone that’s likely to appeal mostly to retro fans—HMD even referred to it as a “vacation phone.” The new 8110 retains its original slider and curve and will be available in traditional black or banana yellow colors. It comes with KaiOS—a fork of Firefox’s now  discontinued  Linux-based mobile operating system—and uses HTML5 apps. Owners get Google Assistant, Maps, and Search, along with Facebook a...

Why Joseph parker is doomed if he fight Antony Joshua- Heavy weight boxer, Dillian whyte gives reasons

According to Daily Star UK, Anthony Joshua’s rival Dillian Whyte claims Joseph Parker is set to fail in his forthcoming heavyweight clash for one obvious reason. Whyte was unbeaten when he faced off against Joshua in December 2015, providing the future unified champion with the sternest test of his career. The 29-year-old appeared to have Joshua on the ropes when he wobbled him with a well-timed right hand. But he could not sustain the momentum and eventually became the 15th victim in a perfect knockout streak that has since extended to 20 fights. Ahead of his own heavyweight clash with Lucas Browne later this month, Whyte was asked whether Kiwi WBO world champion Parker could give Joshua problems on March 31. “Parker will come to fight but I believe what he brings to the table will work right into AJ’s hands,” Whyte told talkSPORT. “Because he is a ‘come-forward’ fighter, he’s not the strongest of guys and he’s not got the strongest defence and AJ will relish th...
