Pot bellies can be caused by over eating, problems of acidity and also due to some non digestible substances used in the fast food. These substances can be the preservatives used in almost all the soft drinks and some food stuffs as well. All these can lead to the slow formation of a belly shaped stomach which gradually increases in size. Here are some of the remedies to get rid of this problem:-
- Drink at least 12-14 glasses of water per day especially after you wake up and before going to sleep.
- Drink only two to four sips of water after having breakfast, lunch and dinner and take the full quantity after around twenty minutes.
- Exercise daily and cycling is the best option for this. It not only helps in flattening the belly but also keeps you fit and balances your diet to a large extent.
- Instead of going to sleep or even for a short nap immediately after eating or drinking something, try to go for a short distance walk or sit for sometime in a completely relaxed mode.
- Try to avoid tea containing milk and go for lemon tea which not only helps in balancing your weight but also burning the saturated fats consumed by you. These fats, if consumed in extra quantity, can block the arteries and can also thicken the stomach walls thus increasing the size.
- Drink a glass of luke warm milk with a little sugar added to it half an hour after the dinner.
- After the daily routine in the morning, lie straight on your bed with the anklet of both the legs tied with a cloth. Then, try to sit straight without taking anyone’s help and keeping your hands straight. You will see a tremendous effect of this exercise and would actually feel it.
- Whether you wear a sari, suit, jeans or skirt, keep the belt below the naval point.
- Try to take a good quantity of lemon juice as it helps a lot in burning the accumulated fats in the body.
- Last but not the least, a good routine always keeps you fit. A little exercise everyday can bless you and the whole lot of left exercise routines in a single day can spoil the entire month.
