Carrying excess tummy fat isn’t just about appearance—it can also pose serious health risks.
Visceral fat, which surrounds vital organs, has been linked to heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and inflammation.
Reducing tummy fat involves focusing on gut health, proper nutrition, and exercise.
The Role of Gut Health in Losing Tummy Fat
A healthy gut supports digestion, reduces bloating, and promotes a balanced metabolism. At Zing Wellbeing, our meal plans focus heavily on improving gut health by incorporating high-fibre foods, probiotics, and anti-inflammatory ingredients.
The Importance of Protein in Losing Tummy Fat
Protein plays a critical role in fat loss and muscle maintenance. Eating enough protein helps boost metabolism, reduces appetite, and prevents muscle loss while burning fat.
It also promotes satiety, making it easier to stick to a calorie-controlled diet. At Zing Wellbeing, our meal plans include protein-rich options such as lean meats, eggs, legumes, and plant-based proteins to support fat loss and overall health.
We also have a 5 star rated organic dairy free and plant based protein powder that is creamy, grit free and delicious - you can see it in our shop
