Flat Belly Diet: MUFA foods trim waist without exercise

by Dalene Entenmann on January 12, 2008

According to Flat Belly Diet authors Prevention editor in chief Liz Vaccariello and nutrition director Cynthia Sass, eating foods high in monounsaturated fat (MUFA) will melt away inches from your waistline without the need to break out in a sweat from exercise.

For followers of the Flat Belly Diet, claims include:

  • You can lose up to 15 pounds in one month.
  • You can eat and never feel hungry.
  • Tackle and overcome emotional eating.
  • Never do stomach crunches for flat abs.

“And, eating MUFA foods will trim your waist and flatten your belly, once and for all.
It does not matter what your personal stumbling blocks are: baby weight, killer cravings, or (say it with me) getting older. Belly fat is not your destiny. I am delighted to tell you that you can, and will, get rid of it. Prevention has found a way to target belly fat that is healthy, real, long lasting, and works for everyone.” — Flat Belly Diet authors

The Flat Belly Diet is based on independent scientific research into the weight loss and health potential of MUFA-rich foods such as black or green olives, nuts, seeds, avocado, oils and dark chocolate. In addition, this diet is reported to slow aging and offers health prevention benefits for type 2 diabetes and heart disease.

The Flat Belly Diet being presented by the respected and trusted staff at Prevention gives this diet more than a little credibility — and it is more than a diet. The Flat Belly Diet is a change of attitude and way of thinking.
