DALLAS - Oct. 24, 2013 - PRLog -- Who doesn’t want a Flat Belly? The challenge becomes a little bit harder when you need to eat Gluten-Free. North America’s Gluten-Free Expert Kathy Smart shares her all-natural tips to help those eating Gluten-Free, and even those that don’t, find the best products to fight that belly fat while boosting metabolism and regulating hormones. The first step she says is to understand what you need to feed your body to help nourish and build it, starting with real food.

Kathy’s Top 7 Fat-Blasting foods you should look for when you buy Gluten-Free:


1.       Add Fiber. Look for Gluten-free foods with at least 4mg of fiber to help trap toxins and stimulate metabolism.

2.       Get Protein.  Look for a good source of high quality protein to stabilize your blood sugars and target belly fat.

3.       Maca Way for Super-Foods.  Add in naturally Gluten-free super-foods like maca, coconut oil, chia seeds and hemp seeds to target stubborn fat deposits in the tummy.

4.       The Q & L. Use gluten-free products with Quinoa in them. Quinoa has the amino acid L-Lysine to boost the immune system and fight cold sores.

5.       Cinnamon and Sugars. Add or substitute blood sugar balancers like cinnamon to your existing gluten-free foods.

6.       Chromium.  Chromium is a natural way to fight those sugar cravings. Find gluten-free foods high in chromium.

7.       Get Decadent! Make Gluten-Free foods decadent while blasting fat by adding unsweetened cocoa, pure maple syrup, and avocadoes. Treat yourself to a rich and healthy chocolate pudding that decadent and good for you!

Like with any products, be aware of what you’re buying and know what’s in the mix. Kathy advises that where possible, stick to a REAL FOOD diet, and when you buy Gluten-Free know what to look for.
