High Calcium Diet For Weight Loss & Flat Abs

Many desire geting flat abs. Flat, sexy, firm abs are regarded as the pinnacle of fitness. This article will discuss how you can achieve a sexy stomach by effectively balancing your nutrition.

Firstly, you need to balance your carbohydrates to promote flatter abs. Carbohydrates should be approximately 50 to 55 percent of your diet. You should have between 200 and 300 grams of carbohydrates per day. Any less and you will be undernoursihed; too much and you will look and feel bloated. You should aim for around 15 servings of carbohydrates per day and it should be spaced out amongst three to five meals.

Some people don’t like counting carbs (and who can blame them?). Instead, you should aim for at least three 4 ounce servings of vegetables and at least three servings of fruit each day. As well as one cup worth of whole grains per meal (equivalent to two slices of bread).

That’s the carbs dealt with, the next step to flat abs is with calcium.

Research has shown that you can burn an extra 100 calories of body fat every day simply by eating or drinking dairy foods. 100 calories per day, every day equates to a loss of 10lbs per year.

According to the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM Fit Society(r) Page, Summer 2004, p. 8-9), a high calcium diet contributes directly to fat loss in the stomach area. The ACSM also states that a diet high in calcium turns more calories to heat than to body fat, and also that a calcium rich diet can help minimize midlife fat gain.

So, what exactly is a calcium rich diet?

A calcium rich diet is one where you intake 1000mg of calcium. Do not overload, stick to the guidelines. Three to four servings of calcium rich foods or drinks is sufficient.

Low fat dairy products such as milk, cheese, yogurt, calcium enriched drinks and various herbal infusions are fantastic sources of calcium that you can include in your calcium diet.
