Belly fat can be stubborn and hard to shift for many people and "How can I burn fat from my belly?" is a very common question the DVCC Transformation Experts are asked.

Improving insulin sensitivity is a great step towards improving your waist line.

To do this avoid refined and high glycemic carbs for breakfast and pre workout, because the hormone insulin that follows such foods will shift the body away from burning fat for fuel.

Eat plenty of fibrous carbs especially green vegetables, these vegetables are nutrient rich, low in calories and are very filling.

Supplementing with a high quality omega 3 fish oil will have a great impact on insulin sensitivity and ultimately help you to burn belly fat.

Improving your sleep will also have a positive impact on shifting any unwanted fat from your waistline. growth hormone is one of the most powerful hormones for preventing belly fat gain and it is released at two times - when you train with resistance and when you sleep.

Improving the quality of your sleep will improve growth hormone levels. lack of quality sleep causes elevation of the stress hormone cortisol which will lead the body to gain belly fat.

Magnesium Bisglysiate is a supplement that is worth using if your sleep quality is poor as it reduces your cortisol levels (high cortisol levels affect the quality of sleep in an undesirable way).

Magnesium Bisglysiate also helps to reduce chocolate cravings - another thing that will help to burn more belly fat!
