6 simple tips to wake up with a flat stomach in the morning

#1 Pay attention to yogurt at dinner

Yogurt has several beneficial properties, yet people who suffer from stomach bloating shouldn’t eat it at dinner. Yogurt contains lactose, and sometimes even other kinds of sugar that may cause bad digestion, inflammation and bloating. It is advisable to choose sugar-free yoghurt and also lactose-free yoghurt, if you are intolerant to this substance.

You may want to substitute yogurt with kefir – a fermented yogurt-like drink, extremely rich in probiotics and useful to treat digestive problems and lactose intolerance.

#2 10-minute physical exercise before going to bed

Physical exercise helps us feel fit. Light walking, ten-minute moderate physical exercise or yoga may help us relax and improve our sleep quality. A little bit of movement can also help lose weight and make the stomach flat. It is not advisable to take heavy physical exercise before going to bed, as it can cause a significant rise in body temperature and make sleep difficult.

#3 Take a cold shower

Not only is a cold shower a valuable remedy to improve blood circulation, but also a cure-all for our belly:  by lowering body temperature, cold showers trigger those mechanisms involved in body energy consumption. In other words, cold water activates the metabolism, makes us burn out more calories and helps us lose weight.

#4 Have a healthy breakfast

Starting the day with a healthy breakfast is very important if you want to feel fit and look good. This habit helps boost metabolism, increase insulin resistance and reduce inflammation. A mix of oat, plain chocolate, walnuts, honey and cinnamon may be ideal in order to stimulate the intestine and prevent stomach bloating.

# 5 Abstain from processed snacks and meals

You may think that cereal bars are the perfect food if you want to stay fit, yet they are not the best choice for those who suffer from stomach bloating. They often contain lactose, soy and sugar that may cause inflammation and stomach bloating.

#6 Drink fresh fruit and vegetables juices and smoothies

Juicing fruit and vegetables could help you achieve that flat stomach you’ve always dreamt of. Fruit and vegetables are extremely rich in enzymes, vitamins and minerals, that we need to feel healthy and fit. It is advisable to prepare them at home, instead of buying them at grocery stores. The fruit and vegetable juices and smoothies we usually buy at stores are poor in nutrients and are packed with added sugar, preservatives, colorings and other additives.

In order to have a flat stomach, the best ingredients to opt for when juicing are:

  • spinaches,
  • pineapples,
  • fennels,
  • blueberries,
  • fresh ginger root,
  • apples,
  • cucumbers,
  • mint.
