London: This coming year more and more of us are likely to make dieting our New Years resolution. However for many of us, this will be a ritual we are all too familiar with. Having tried dieting the year before and been unsuccessful, the process of losing weight and then gaining it is something us women struggle with on a regular basis.
Losing weight and keeping the weight off can give you a better quality of life, not only will you look fabulous in that dress, but the health benefits are astounding, reducing the risk of life threatening diseases such as type-2 diabetes and heart disease, two of the leading causes of death worldwide1.
With all the weight loss programmes and diets that Britons are attempting this New Year, its important to know what food and exercise combinations can help you lose weight consequently reducing visceral fat. Visceral fat which surrounds vital organs in the abdomen cant be seen or felt, but the metabolically active fat in unhealthy amounts can add to serious health problems.
