Chewing your food well helps you lose weight and reduce belly fat because it increases the length of your meals, causes your stomach to signal to your brain that your body doesn’t need more food, increases satiety, and reduces the amount of food in your meals.

Drinking plenty of water throughout the day helps you lose weight and reduce belly fat because it fills the stomach, prolongs satiety, and reduces the desire to eat.

It is recommended to avoid alcoholic drinks such as wine, beer, whisky and sparkling wine, because these drinks are high in calories which make it difficult to lose weight.

Lemon juice helps you lose weight because it cleanses the taste buds, reducing the desire to eat sweet foods, which can make you fat or hinder weight loss.
