Importance of Diet for Belly Fat Loss
To lose belly fat, diet is crucial. It is recommended to follow a high protein diet with 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight. Fat intake should be around 0.3 times body weight, but may vary depending on individual preferences and energy needs. A lower fat and higher carb diet is often effective for fat loss, as it provides more energy and improves overall well-being. Caloric intake can be determined based on body weight, and the remaining calories should come from carbohydrates. Food choices should prioritize protein and produce, including beef, chicken, eggs, fish, and various fruits and vegetables. Starches like rice, potatoes, and sweet potatoes can be added depending on body fat percentage. To optimize gut health, it is recommended to start with a paleo or AIP-style diet that avoids grains, sugar, corn, and potentially inflammatory foods.
