Insert fat to get flat!

4. Healthy tip of the day...

Well everyone wants a flat belly but who really has the discipline? Cheat your way to quick relief and tummy flatness with these 5 foods. Just watch the serving size!

Avocado - packed with betasitosterol, a plant sterol that keeps cholesterol low. And what else? Some types of Avocado (Reed or Hass) have lutein which helps keep eyes in good shape! Salad?

1 serve = 1/4 cup

Olives - These little suckers are packed with iron, fibre, vit. E and copper which is good for the thyroid. Did you know that during your menstrual cycle you crave foods rich in copper as your body uses it for the duration of your cycle...I.e craves foods rich in copper like CHOCOLATE.

1 serve = 10 olives

DARK CHOCOLATE - is it a myth? or is it true? Well the good news is that it is rich in proanthocyanins and flavanols. These help boost good cholesterol levels and lower blood pressure!

1 serve = 4 or 5 squares

Oils... Usually one of the first things to go on any diet. No more! Provided they're used in a controlled portion, olive oil contains cancer fighting ingredients and personally i think it makes my skin glow. Flaxseed and walnut oils are rich in alpha-linolenic acid. What the hell does that mean? Means it can be turned into omega-3 fatty acids, good for those of you who dont like fish! Other oils that are good for us are flaxseed, sunflower, olive, soybean....

1 serve = 1 tablespoon

NUTS about nuts... We've all heard that nuts are good for us and this is true as you can see they contain oils mentioned above that are beneficial due to their being packed with linoleic acid, vitamin e, protein, fibre, iron and zinc! Choose almond, pumpkin, pine nuts, hazelnuts, walnuts..Nuts also fight fat cravings and stave off hunger...so GO NUTS!

1 serve = 1 to 2 tablespoons.
