The Flat Belly Diet is getting a lot of attention today. It was featured on Good Morning America.The diet is being promoted by Prevention magazine, who’s Editor in Chief helped to write it. The key point about the Flat Belly Diet is that we should eat many more of the good fats, or MUFA. MUFA’s are the magical component that will melt our belly fat. MUFA stands for mono unsaturated fatty acid – the really good fat found in foods like most nuts and seeds, olive oil and avocados. If we eat a bit of MUFA at every meal we will feel more satiated and less likely to reach for other foods because we won’t feel hungry.

The Flat Belly Diet begins with a 4-day anti-bloating jumpstart, followed by the 4-week eating plan. The whole diet takes just 32 days. Once you’ve flattened your stomach, you’ll want to make this satisfying, healthy-eating plan part of your lifestyle.
