Dr Oz: Ginger Iced Tea Recipe, Flat Belly Plan Review & MUFA Meals

Dr Oz: Flat Belly Plan Review

Getting rid of belly fat is not easy but Dr. Oz has the “Flat Belly Plan,” a plan that will help you lose your belly fat for good. He even promised the foods you can eat on the plan are delicious and you should never feel hungry while burning off the fat.

Dr Oz: Liz Vaccariello, Flat Belly Diet Review

Liz Vaccariello, author of Flat Belly Diet, explained the key to getting rid of your belly fat is to add specific types of good fats to your diet. By adding good fats into your diet, you are going to get rid of the dangerous visceral fat that can cause a lot of health problems.

Dr. Shawn Talbott, another guest on Dr. Oz, said the hormone cortisol is what causes the problems for most people because when you get stressed the cortisol sends a message to your brain which tells you to eat more to reduce the stress. He said we can short-circuit the message to gain more control of our hunger.

Dr Oz: Ginger Iced Tea Recipe, Flat Belly Plan Review & MUFA Meals

Dr. Oz went over his flat belly plan, which includes four steps; getting rid of bloating, eating more good fat, eating MUFA meals and stopping inflammation.

Jaime Brenkus, creator of 8 Minute Abs, told Dr. Oz even if you have never had a flat belly, it is possible to get one by following Dr. Oz’s Flat Belly Plan, doing exercises to target the core and reducing the bloating in your stomach.

Dr Oz: Eat Greek Yogurt Before Every Meal To Loss More Weight

Dr. Oz said there are four steps you need to follow to get a flat belly. The first step begins before you eat breakfast in the morning. Dr. Oz explained you can begin to shrink your fat cells by eating six ounces of low-fat Greek yogurt before every single meal. In a recent study, it was found people who ate Greek yogurt while dieting lost 81 percent more belly fat than those who did not eat yogurt. The Greek yogurt helped people lose weight because the calcium in the yogurt literally stops fat from entering your cells.

Dr Oz: Eat Three Mono Unsaturated Fatty Acid Meals a Day

The next step to getting a flat belly involves eating three MUFA (Mono Unsaturated Fatty Acids) meals a day. Dr. Oz said they are the cornerstone of the Flat Belly Plan because they are going to help you shed excess pounds while at the same time adding healthy fats to your diet.

Vaccariello explained further that you need to look for these healthy fats in plant-based sources because they offer the most benefit when you are trying to eliminate your belly fat.

  • Nuts, like peanuts
  • Seeds
  • Avocados
  • Olives
  • Peanut butter
  • Flaxseed oil
  • Safflower oil
  • Canola oil
  • Extra virgin olive oil

Dr Oz: Mono Unsaturated Fatty Acid Meals Guidelines

Vaccariello explained you need to eat three MUFA meals per day and include a lean protein, a complex carbohydrate and as many vegetables as you want in the meal.

Dr Oz: Flat Belly Plan Soothe Inflammation With Berries

Dr. Oz said the third  step in his Flat Belly Plan is to soothe inflammation in the body by eating an afternoon anti-inflammatory snack every day.

Inflammation is one of the causes of belly fat, according to Dr. Oz, which means this is a very important step in the plan. Dr. Talbott explained the key is to eat food that are high in flavonoids, which are rich in antioxidants and have powerful anti-inflammatory properties. Try some of the fruits listed below for a great afternoon anti-inflammatory snack.

  • Brightly colored fruits and vegetables
  • Mixed berries, like strawberries, raspberries, blackberries and blueberries drizzled with dark chocolate
  • Yellow and orange pepper strips with a low-fat dip
  • Around 100 calories

Dr Oz: Ginger Iced Tea Recipe

Dr. Oz said the last step in his Flat Belly Plan is to beat bloat by drinking ginger iced tea with mint and lemon. Personal trainer Jaime Brenkus explained you abdominal muscles will push to the surface of the skin once you get rid of the bloating which is where they are going to be most visible.

Dr Oz Ginger Tea Ingredients:

  • 3 bags ginger tea
  • 1 cup fresh mint
  • Juice of lemon

About Corey Gibson

After graduating from the University of Cincinnati with a degree in Journalism and Anthropology, I managed a pizza place for a year, while freelancing for various newspapers in the area. Working every weekend in sauna like conditions, never being able to take a day off and being covered in flour is something I will not miss. I hope Recapo has air conditioning.
