If you have a big stomach, I'm going to help you reduce the size of it with a couple of tips in this article. You can safely lose weight and slim down without having to do long workouts, no drastic dieting, and without even having to take any diet pill whatsoever. Look, just take 2 minutes to read this article so that you can solve this big belly problem once and for all.
Big Stomach Reducers
1. Incline walking
Maybe you walk, maybe you don't. If you do, you probably realize by now that it's not going to take off the weight really fast. UNLESS, you walk on an incline or a hill. Then you'll lose weight really fast. You see, there's a big difference from the average run-of-the-mill walking on a flat surface or flat treadmill as opposed to inclined treadmills and hills.
You body is use to flat surface walking. Your body basically "YAWNS" at that stuff. Regardless, what I want you to do to accelerate your weight loss is to talk on a treadmill that you can incline to around 15 degrees. Walk on it for at least 20 minutes a day, 4 days a week. That's it.
2. Add 2 apples and 1 can of black beans to your daily diet
I don't care what you eat. I'm not going to try and change you either. But I do want you to do just these 2 things. Add 2 apples as snacks to your diet and also add in 1 can of black beans to a meal or split it among 2 meals. That's it. Why does this help with getting rid of your big belly? Simple, the fibers clear out your digestive tract and improve your digestion.
For a lot of people, an inefficient digestive tract is holding back their weight loss progress. By adding about 35 grams of fiber to your daily diet (10 grams from 2 apples and 25 grams from 1 can of black beans), you SUPERCHARGE your weight loss.
So if you have a big stomach, this is an easy way to get rid of it.

The Most Potent Super-Spice Antioxidant in Your Cabinets
We're talking about the super-spice Turmeric -- a powerful antioxidant with surprising health benefits
by Catherine Ebeling - RN, BSN & Mike Geary, Certified Nutrition Specialist
co-authors of the brand new Fat-Burning Kitchen program
You may have already known from my past newsletters that cinnamon is one of the most powerful antioxidants that you may have been overlooking in this world where acai, goji, other berries, and red wine are the only antioxidant sources that get major press.
However, have you ever eaten curry? That yellow color in curry is attributed to a spice called Turmeric, and it is one of the most powerful antioxidants you can consume with amazing health benefits.
Turmeric has been used in India for thousands of years as a dye, as a spice for dishes, and also in traditional Indian Ayurvedic medicine. Turmeric has some of the world’s most powerful fat-burning and healing qualities of any food or spice. It is a potent anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-bacterial substance.
What is turmeric?
Turmeric grows as a shrub in India and tropical parts of Asia. The roots are ground up to make turmeric. Its active ingredient is a substance called curcumin and it is bright yellow. This bright yellow spice has medicinal properties as well as adding its pungent color and taste to many delicious dishes.
Ayurvedic medicine has used this spice as a whole body cleanser, an aid for digestion, and in treatments for fevers, infections, liver and gall bladder problems and arthritis. It may even help to burn fat, and is also very effective as a preventative for heart disease, and Alzheimer’s.
The rich stores of antioxidants are very effective against the free radicals which contribute to premature aging, disease and cancer. Many natural practitioners actually recommend turmeric when a potent antioxidant is needed.
A digestion aid and fat-burning compound
Turmeric helps to digest fats by stimulating the flow of bile in the gall bladder and therefore is very effective as a digestive aid and fat-burning compound. Studies also show it is highly effective at reducing the inflammation from Irritable Bowel Syndrome, ulcerative colitis, and Crohn’s disease.
For the heart, it contains strong anti-platelet substances which help prevent the blood from clotting too easily, and so is very effective against heart attacks and strokes. In addition, homocysteine, a chemical component in the body, which is one of the primary predictors of heart attacks, is significantly lowered in the presence of curcumin.
The curcumin in turmeric also has been shown to lower and reduce the oxidation of plaque on the artery walls.
As an anti-inflammatory it has been used effectively for a treatment for all types of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and for joint pain.
Turmeric and cancer-risk reduction
Turmeric is a powerful weapon against cancer cells as well. Studies show that this super spice can actually prevent cancer tumors from growing and in those who already have cancer, turmeric slows the growth and spread of cancer. In a research study done with mice injected with cancer cells, the curcumin in turmeric was proven to be more than twice as effective as the cancer drug paclitaxel (Taxol).
The curcumin in turmeric is also highly effective when combined with the anti-oxidant quercetin (found in red onions, apples and cherries) against pre-cancerous polyps in the colon. Studies show that polyps were reduced by 60% and the average size of existing polyps were reduced by 50%.
Turmeric and Alzheimer's disease
One of the most exciting new studies has shown turmeric’s value against Alzheimer’s. Studies of the Indian population who have a high intake of turmeric in their curry dishes show a very low incidence of Alzheimer’s and dementia in the elderly.
Alzheimer’s victims have a buildup of a certain type of plaque in the brain and turmeric is highly effective at breaking down this plaque and protecting brain health.
Ways to get turmeric into your diet:
One way to get high concentrations of curcumin is to use the spice turmeric in some of your cooking and recipes.
Curry contains turmeric, but is usually a combination of several spices and you may not get as much turmeric as you would using pure turmeric. That's not to say there aren't benefits to curry too, since it is a blend of several spices.
Try to get creative and test using turmeric and/or curry on various foods so you can benefit as much as possible from this potent super-spice...
Turmeric is very yellow and can stain so be careful when using it. This spice doesn’t have to be used just for curries. It is delicious on sautéed apples, or steamed cauliflower, green beans and onions, or any of your favorite veggies.
Try it with raw cruciferous vegetables like cauliflower or broccoli, or with celery, sweet pepper, jicama or radishes. Turmeric is also a great spice to complement recipes that feature lentils. Give salad dressings an orange-yellow hue and a little extra flavor by adding some turmeric powder to them.
Once you start using turmeric on a regular basis, it's fun to find new ways to use it in healthy recipes. My favorite way to use it is to add a healthy dose of it to egg salad. It adds a great flavor, and gives the egg salad a delicious rich yellow hue.
The best way to get turmeric daily and maximize your benefits
Let's face it... we know that spices like cinnamon and turmeric have incredible health benefits, but it's hard to remember to use them more than once or twice a week in recipes or on your typical foods.
So what I've found is the best way to make sure you get ample turmeric on a daily basis is to get turmeric capsules.
Turmeric can be purchased in capsules from a health food store, or you can make your own if you want to buy empty capsules and fill your own. The best turmeric is available in bulk in health food stores and is usually fresher and more pungent.
It is important to check with your physician if you are pregnant or nursing; it can be a uterine stimulant. If you have gallstones or bile obstructions or congestive heart failure, it is best to avoid using. And check with your doctor if you are on prescription drugs, as the drugs may interact with the turmeric.
If you're looking for a great super-potent antioxidant blend - this is one of the few that I trust (since I actually know the owners of the company)...

Did you know that Omega-3s Linked to Lower Heart-Risking Inflammation? A new finding adds weight to prior evidence that diets rich in omega-3s may lower levels of a protein associated with inflammation and higher heart risks. Health authorities worldwide recommend fatty fish and fish oil to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and its adverse outcomes.

Delicious Fat Blasting Healthy Snack
I happened to be mostly out of food last week and hadn't made it to the grocery store yet, so I just happened to think of this really super-quick and super-healthy snack idea based on a few random things I had laying around the house...
I threw a couple things together really to just get a quick snack to satisfy my appetite, but I turned out LOVING this little fat-blasting recipe!
What I did was throw about 1 tbsp of virgin coconut oil in a skillet and started heating it. Then I sliced up an apple and diced the apple into cubes and threw it into the coconut oil to soften up in the skillet.
Then I just added some cinnamon to the mix and threw in a handful of chopped pecans and some organic raisins and tossed the mixture around in the pan for about a minute to let everything soften up.
After that, I cracked open 1 whole egg and dropped the egg into the mix and quickly scrambled it around to mix into the apple, nuts, and raisins. I really only added the egg because I wanted to get a little extra protein and healthy fats, but it turned out to be a great addition to this recipe!
After about 30 more seconds of scrambling the mix around, the egg had cooked a bit, and the apples and raisins were soft, and it was ready.
I gotta tell ya... this was an incredible (and healthy) snack! It really satisfied my appetite and only took about 2-3 minutes to make.
I loved it so much that I ended up making this as my mid-day "mid-meal" almost every day last week between lunch and dinner.
Hope you enjoy it if you give it a try!
Just to recap, this was all that was involved in this healthy snack:
1 egg
1 apple
1 handful of chopped pecans
a small handful of organic raisins
a hefty sprinkle of cinnamon
1 tbsp of virgin coconut oil (healthy fat source)
Since the release of our new program (The Fat Burning Kitchen) that I coauthored with Catherine Ebeling a few weeks ago, we've been getting a lot of feedback from people saying that since implementing our nutrition techniques in that program, they are actually having to remind themselves to eat, since they've totally LOST all of their cravings.
I'm not surprised by this feedback because I've been saying that for years now... that if you actually implement the style of eating that we recommend, all cravings go away for good, and your appetite is fully satisfied without ever counting another calorie!
Enjoy!
