Lose that stubborn belly fat by adding MUFAs to your daily diet. MUFAs – monounsaturated fatty acids – are plant-based fats found in some of our favorite foods, including avocados, nuts and seeds, oils, olives, and even dark chocolate! Studies show that these good-for-you fats enhance heart health and help protect against chronic disease. Try adding a handful of MUFAs to each of your meals to finally Blast Belly Fat.

Here’s a list of some of the world’s best MUFAs to help get you on your way to a flatter belly:

• Olive Oil – One serving equals 1 Tablespoon. Cook with it or use it as a base for your favorite salad dressing.
• Olives – Choose black or green olives. Add them to pastas, salads, pizzas, or sauces.
• Avocados – They are high in potassium, fiber, vitamins A and E, and folic acid. Put them on burgers, tacos, sandwiches, and salads.
• Nuts – Try adding almonds, Brazil nuts, dry-roasted sunflower seeds, and macadamia nuts into your salads.
• Coconut Oil – Try adding a teaspoon into your morning coffee. There are so many uses for coconut oil, and we recently shared our favorite top 20 uses.
