The medium chain fatty acids are metabolized differently from long chain fatty acids. These fatty acids directly go to the liver from your digestive tract, where they are used in one of the two ways- either as energy or are converted into ketone bodies. Ketone bodies are three water-soluble biochemical compounds that are produced by the liver using fatty acids when you fast or reduce your food intake. These are used by body cells as energy instead of glucose. So when you want to follow low carb diet to lose fat, coconut oil can help you a lot.

Coconut oil is also a thermogenic and burns fat. Many studies have shown that medium chain fatty acids when compared to the similar amount of calories from other fats, can improve feeling of fullness. Thus you automatically reduce calorie intake.

In this study, some women were given 2 tablespoons of coconut oil and some other women were given 2 tablespoons of soybean oil for 28 days. Both the groups lost about 2 pounds but the group taking coconut oil also reduced their waist circumference while those on soybean oil had a mild increase in belly fat. The coconut oil group also increased HDL (good) cholesterol levels. However, mindlessly having coconut oil may in fact increase your weight, after all it is a fat. So, keep the following tips in mind when using coconut oil to lose belly fat.

v. Vitamin C Boost for Belly Fat Reduction

Deficiency in vitamin C will not let you get rid of belly fat as this vitamin is essential for proper metabolism of fat. If you have more fat around your stomach, it is more likely that you are low on Vitamin C. This vitamin is needed for production of those molecules that are used in metabolism of fatty tissues and lack of it means that your body is not using the stored fat howsoever hard you are exercising. Moreover, this water soluble vitamin cannot be stored in the body. Unused vitamin C is excreted out of your body via urine. So, you need to replenish your vitamin C stock everyday. Most of the fruits and vegetables have vitamin C in them but there are certain fruits and veggies that have rich sources of this vitamin. Include these fruits and veggies in your diet for a daily boost of vitamin C to reduce abdominal fat.

If you really want to get rid of your abdominal fat, you better start bringing these lifestyle changes from now itself.

Tips

-Weight isn’t everything. Muscle does weigh more than fat, and being fit and healthy is more important than being incredibly “thin.” Healthy looks good on you, and don’t forget it!

-Never underestimate stress as a cause of weight gain. The body cannot perform any function, including burning fat for energy, optimally when under stress.

-There are no super-foods. Don’t rely on one thing to help you lose weight-always maintain a balanced diet.

-Don’t eat before bed. Your metabolism slams on the brakes when you go to sleep, so eating at night makes weight gain tough to avoid.

-Get a buddy to make goals that the two of you strive towards. When you lose willpower or motivation, a friend can be all that stands between success and setback.

-Read a book called Salt, Sugar, Fat: How the Food Giants Hooked Us In by New York Times investigative reporter Michael Moss. Just do it. It will give you something new and tangible to hold onto when you are trying to avoid junk food. At the risk of sounding corny, it actually changed my life.

-Along the lines of the first tip-manage your weight to be healthy, and ultimately, happy. Ignore images of perfect figures. Forget about the silly things society bombards you with, telling you what you should look like. To say that’s easier said than done is the understatement of the century, but do try to keep it in mind. When you are healthy, and happy, you truly glow from the inside out.
