Dr. Oz Takes On Unwanted Belly Fat: Miso Soup, Sauerkraut, and Fiberol
Dr. Oz is enjoying Christmas with his family playing Oz Football and sampling some of Daphne’s new discoveries from The Chew cohorts.
But the repeat episode of Dr. Oz had the good doctor taking on unwanted belly fat.
He pulled out that gross omentum and made the medical risks of not dealing with the deadly fat more visible to his female audience who were all in their blue sports bras with their big bellies sticking out.
He later gave three options for women to consider to address the rest of that belly fat with diet and exercise, even as the audience did their disco best at the end of the program to get their lethargic bodies moving to the music and the beat.
Dr. Oz reminded people that fermented foods will help to balance the digestive system. Miso Soup and Sauerkraut were two of the foods he suggested that lend themselves to this process. From pickled daikon to Kim Chi to other fabulous fermented vegetables, it is a delicious way to restore the intestinal flora which eventually shows a reduction in the size of the belly.
I have yet to see goldenberries in the stores, so if you can find them…that’s good for you. There are many fruits that have fiber and nutrients that will help to regulate your digestive system and fatty metabolism. Don’t forget grapefruit, lemon juice, the zest of citrus fruits, and vegetables like red peppers. Garlic, ginger, and other spices are equally useful in this department, especially those that are warming or hot…which usually means they are spicy.
Dr. Oz insisted on fiber being added to the daily diet, but there was only one source of whole foods offered amidst protein fiber bars and Metamucil. That single lone orange is but one of many high fiber foods that will help the digestive system become regular and cut down on belly fat as an indirect result.
If you are going to do anything that will reverse the expansion of your belly with unwanted fat; then eating food high in fiber is the most excellent idea shared today. Fresh organic fruit, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, seeds, greens, beans, and legumes will all contribute to your success. You don’t really need Metamucil or psyllium husks to do the trick…they are only band-aid solutions that are temporary. Your healthy Lifestyle is the key.
I can think of other exercise regimens that will tonify the belly better than disco dancing, although ballroom dancing is one of my favorite methods for great results. Yoga and Tai Chi will not only shape your body, but they will lend more energy and well-being to your Lifestyle simultaneously.
Whatever you decide to do to deal with that unwanted belly fat, don’t leave it alone like Santa for another year. Trim, tone, and make a new trend with fermented foods that taste good.
