3. Healthy Lifestyle Habits
Lack of sleep disrupts hunger hormones like ghrelin and leptin, which can trigger cravings. Aim for 7–9 hours of quality rest per night.
Manage Stress
Chronic stress raises cortisol, a hormone that encourages belly fat storage. Practice stress-reducing techniques like yoga, meditation, or deep breathing.
4. Avoid Bloat-Inducing Foods
Limit Sodium
High-salt diets lead to water retention and bloating. Avoid processed, packaged, or fast foods high in sodium.
Watch Dairy and Carbonation
Some people are sensitive to lactose, and carbonated drinks can trap gas in your gut. Reduce intake if you notice bloating.
