Spice mix
Instead of loading up your food with salt how about sprinkling some warming spices. Spices like ginger, black pepper and cinnamon boast of amazing fat-burning properties. They have a great ability to control blood sugar. Meaning they can help prevent any spike in your glucose levels post a sugar or carb-rich meal. Know more about the effects of these spices –
Black pepper: It raises the body temperature and increases metabolism. Black pepper also aids in digestion because when it is eaten, a signal is sent to your stomach to produce hydrochloric acid. This acid is crucial for digestion of protein and other foods in the stomach.
Chilli powder: Chilli powder contains capsaicin, a powerful stimulant that raises the body temperature and increases fat-burning ability by up to 25%. Besides this, chilli powder reduces cholesterol levels.
Ginger: Ginger increases metabolic rate and decreases appetite. It also helps in the digestion process.
Cinnamon: Studies have found that having just 1/4 to 1 teaspoon of cinnamon can increase your metabolism and improve the body’s ability to handle sugar by stimulating insulin activity. Cinnamon also keeps your body’s digestive system flowing smoothly.
Include ginger lemon tea, mint tea and cinnamon tea to enhance the detoxification process of your liver naturally.
Stress control
Take control of your emotions. Do yoga and meditate at least for 15 minutes daily. You can also consume low-fat milk before bed. This will help you sleep better and give more energy the next morning.

Nutritional supplements
A well-balanced, nutritious diet is sufficient in all vitamins and minerals, but our usual diet is lacking in many of these. Vitamins and minerals play integral roles in the body metabolism. Chromium, Omega-3 fatty acids and B-complex play an important role in weight loss and are also needed for optimum energy metabolism. Vitamins E and C, zinc and selenium are essential antioxidants to reduce the damage done to the body by environmental stress, pollutants and free radicals. Calcium, magnesium and phosphorus are some of the nutrients needed for denser, stronger bones that will be ready to support the increased lean body mass.
Weight loss foods
Make sure to include foods such as fish, chicken, eggs, low fat milk and yogurt, cottage cheese, sprouts, pulses and legumes, nuts and whole seeds (almonds, peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds), fish oil, coconut oil, brown rice, apples and papaya in diet chart for weight loss for male.
Exercises for Belly Fat Reduction
At Health Total, we suggest a mild exercise plan, which includes 40-45 minutes of cardiovascular exercises along with some weight training exercises (push-ups, crunches, abs) to build up muscle mass (active). We recommend clients to do it for at least 5 times a week. This will help you regularise the flow of free fatty acids for burning.
Moderate exercise such as 40-45 minutes’ walk while being on our weight loss management plan can give you amazing results in terms of losing weight while helping you lower your body fat% and visceral fat in terms of your waist circumference.
