Summer is coming and we are all trying to get in shape ASAP. Well unfortunately, it is not always easy but I found an article in Fitness magazine that can help us ladies!
Here are some secrets to fight off belly bloat:
-
drink water with lemon ( If you're having a bloating problem, that's the time you want to push fluids, not restrict them, says Grotto. Since lemons are a natural diuretic and a gentle laxative when added to warm water, consuming the liquid can help reduce the amount of salt retained in the body. Just make sure you drink from the glass and not through a straw, so you don't take in any extra air)
-
eat celery (it has been used as a digestive aid to regulate bowel movements and to control intestinal gas because its chemicals are known to decrease fluid retention)
-
eat watermelon (it consists of 92 percent water and it also has a natural diuretic property and is a great source of potassium)
-
cook with rosemary (it treats intestinal gas and helps digestion)
-
eat beans and lentils (Lentils possess a high amount of fiber that are a good choice for aiding with digestion. Also, potassium-rich foods include white beans, soybeans, and lima beans - are also the highest-fiber vegetables you can get)
-
eat yogurt (the nature of the active cultures lactobacillus and acidophilus found in yogurt can improve symptoms of bloating)
-
keep your sodium intake to a minimum
-
make sure you get enough sleep and get a least 30 mins of physical activity on a daily basis
