A High Protein Diet<\/h2>\n<p>A high protein diet supports lean muscle mass, keeps you full longer, and increases your metabolic rate.<\/p>\n<p>The research from a study entitled <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC8140050\/\">&#8220;Effect of Protein Intake on Visceral Abdominal Fat&#8230;&#8221;<\/a><\/strong>, in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition (2015), shows that those on a higher protein diet lost more visceral fat than those on a lower protein diet.<\/p>\n<p>So the recommendation is to consume 1.5g of protein per Kg, or 0.7g per lb of body weight each day.<\/p>\n<p>For a 200lb man, that\u2019s 140g\/day. If you\u2019re 150lbs, it's around 100g\/day.<\/p>\n<p>To make sure you're able to hit this higher protein intake, plan for each meal to have around 30-40g of protein.<\/p>\n<p>For breakfast, this could be 3 eggs (20g protein) + 7-ounces (200-gram) of unsweetened greek yogurt, with fruit (20g protein).<\/p>\n<p>For lunch this could be a protein shake, and for dinner, 6 ounces of chicken breast, salmon, or turkey mince.<\/p>\n<div class=\"new-health-program-plan\" style=\"margin: 4rem 0;\">\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"section\" data-elementor-id=\"40012\" class=\"elementor elementor-40012\"

Time Restricted Eating (Intermittent Fasting)<\/h2>\n<p>Time restricted eating is a condensed period of eating, often 8 hours, combined with a period of fasting, often 16 hours, within each 24-hour day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The benefits include:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u2192 Reduced insulin levels prompting the body to use stored fat (including visceral fat) for energy.<\/p>\n<p>\u2192 Increased autophagy, a cellular cleanup process that improves metabolic health.<\/p>\n<p>In a study called <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cell.com\/cell-reports-medicine\/fulltext\/S2666-3791(22)00332-9\">Time-restricted eating with or without low-carbohydrate diet reduces visceral fat and improves metabolic syndrome<\/a><\/strong> published in Cell Reports, participants saw a 4% decrease in visceral fat in just 12 weeks!<\/p>\n<p>The only difference in this particular study was this condensed period of eating. There was no restriction on calories consumed.<\/p>\n<h2>2b. 24-Hour Fasting<\/h2>\n<p>An alternative to intermittent fasting, is a 24-hour fast, 1-2 times per week.<\/p>\n<p>This is what I do, and is what I recommend in my Fit Father programs.<\/p>\n<p>A research study published in the journal &#8220;Obesity&#8221; by &#8220;Leibel et al. (2012)&#8221; demonstrated a significant reduction in visceral fat of around 7% in participants following an alternate-day fasting regimen compared to a calorie restriction group.<\/p>\n<p>These longer fasting periods increase the amount of deep fat that's liberated for energy.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-box su-box-style-soft main feature box\" id=\"\" style=\"border-color:#0039b8;border-radius:3px;\"><div class=\"su-box-title\" style=\"background-color:#006CEB;color:#FFFFFF;border-top-left-radius:1px;border-top-right-radius:1px\"><strong>**PRO TIP:**<\/strong><\/div><div class=\"su-box-content su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\" style=\"border-bottom-left-radius:1px;border-bottom-right-radius:1px\"><strong>To increase the benefits even further, I recommend you eat lower carb and do resistance training before you fast. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This helps to empty out carbohydrate stores and get your body utilizing stored fat as its primary fuel source.<\/div><\/div>\n<h2>3. HIIT Workouts<\/h2>\n<p>High Intensity Interval Training is a workout that alternates short bursts of activity with short periods of rest.<\/p>\n<p>HIIT triggers excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC), which increases calorie burn for hours after exercise.<\/p>\n<p>It also improves insulin sensitivity which supports the loss of visceral fat.<\/p>\n<p>A meta-analysis titled, <strong>&#8220;High-Intensity Interval Training Versus Moderate-Intensity Continuous Training for Reducing Visceral Fat&#8221;<\/strong>, in the Journal of Obesity (2018) recommends 3 sessions per week of HIIT training, using the protocol of 30 seconds high intensity, then 60 seconds of low intensity.<\/p>\n<p>Doing this for a total of 20 minutes per session will adequately stimulate your metabolism, and release visceral fat stores.<\/p>\n<div class=\"new-health-program-plan\" style=\"margin: 4rem 0;\">\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"section\" data-elementor-id=\"40012\"

Gut & Digestive Health<\/h2>\n<p>There is a very clear connection between gut & digestive health, and visceral fat.<\/p>\n<p>With all the ultra-processed foods in our supermarkets today, we're subjected to increasing amounts of sugar, and also pesticides used on non-organic foods (Glyphosate).<\/p>\n<p>Both of these change your gut microbiome, which leads to systemic inflammation that is linked to visceral fat gain.<\/p>\n<p>A study in Nature (2014) by Dr. Eran Elinav, Dr. Eran Segal, et al. titled <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/25231862\/\">Artificial sweeteners induce glucose intolerance by altering the gut microbiota<\/a><\/strong> showed that artificial sweeteners altered gut microbiota and led to a 30% increase in glucose intolerance within one week.<\/p>\n<p>To improve your gut microbiome, you should make sure you're consuming foods high in probiotics. These include kombucha, sauerkraut, apple cider vinegar, yogurt, kefir, and sourdough bread.<\/p>\n<p>You can also take probiotic supplements. An article titled <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/34684633\/\">Effects of Probiotics and Synbiotics on Weight Loss in Subjects with Overweight or Obesity: A Systematic Review<\/a><\/strong> recommends the use of 2 strains of probiotics in particular, Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium.<\/p>\n<p>The suggested dosage is 10 Billion CFUs of each of these probiotic strains.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Sleep & Stress Management<\/h2>\n<p>To decrease visceral fat, you must prioritize sleep quality and stress management.<\/p>\n<p>In my earlier point, I showed you that visceral fat has more receptors for stress hormones, like cortisol and adrenaline.<\/p>\n<p>Not getting enough sleep disrupts your hormone levels, particularly cortisol. Increased cortisol is picked up by these receptors, and they tell your body to hold on to more visceral fat.<\/p>\n<p>A lack of sleep also disrupts your appetite regulating hormones, Leptin and Ghrelin. When you sleep, Leptin increases, while Ghrelin decreases.<\/p>\n<p>When Ghrelin is low, it indicates you're full, so there's no need to eat. If this is disrupted, you're more likely to snack throughout the day.<\/p>\n<p>Prioritize good sleep by having a set bedtime each day that ensures 7-8 hours of quality sleep. Also, reduce your light exposure at night, and catch up on sleep when you have more time over the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>A study titled <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/articles\/PMC9031614\/\">Sleep Deprivation: Effects on Weight Loss and Weight Loss Maintenance<\/a><\/strong> goes deep into each of these key points.<\/p>\n<h2>6. Cold Exposure<\/h2>\n<p>You've probably seen the trend among health and biohacking influencers about cold plunges. Although I am a believer in the benefits, it's not just cold-plunging that I'm talking about in this point.<\/p>\n<p>Cold showers, sleeping in a colder room, or going outside in lower temperatures in minimal clothing are all ways you can expose yourself to the cold, and reap the benefits.<\/p>\n<p>The reason cold exposure is so beneficial in reducing visceral fat, is that it activates another type of fat, called brown adipose tissue, which specifically targets visceral fat stores.<\/p>\n<p>It does this by increasing our core temperature and boosting our metabolism in times of cold exposure. It also helps to burn the calories from food intake, faster.<\/p>\n<p>A study titled <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/s42255-022-00590-0\">Brown adipose tissue-derived MaR2 contributes to cold-induced resolution of inflammation<\/a><\/strong>, published in the journal Nature Medicine shows that the beneficial effects of cold exposure on improving obesity-induced inflammation and insulin resistance depend on brown adipose tissue (BAT).<\/p>\n<div class=\"newff30xsalesbox\">\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"section\" data-elementor-id=\"40016\" class=\"elementor elementor-40016\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-de25df1 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"de25df1\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-background-overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-ff7fbd7\" data-id=\"ff7fbd7\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d0bd5b5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"d0bd5b5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Join our <u>6-Week Doctor Designed Health Program<\/u>.
