the 4 best carbs for a flat belly!!!

There are plenty of BAD carbs out there and you don't have to completely eliminate carbs from your diet in order to burn fat fast, especially is you choose the right sources.

Having said that, below are 4 choices for belly-blasting carbs that'll leave you full and satisfied, while helping you toward your fat loss goals.


#4-  BERRIES & CHERRIES


Berries like blueberries, blackberries, raspberries and cherries (although not technically a berry) are some of the best carbs you can eat.  The are high in fiber, packed with antioxidants, and score extremely low on the glycemic index, especially cherries which come with a GI of just 22.

Enjoy fresh berries for dessert, it's a nutritious way to finish off any meal.  Great for a snack, too!  Try them on top of Greek yogurt...yummy!!


#3-  SPROUTED GRAIN BREAD


Sprouted grain breads, like Ezekiel 4:9 bread (one of the most popular brands of sprouted grain bread) is a great way to include bread in your diet on occasion without all the issues associated with white breads and even 100% whole wheat breads.

Instead, Ezekiel bread is organic, sprouted, 100% whole grain flourless bread.  A 2-slice serving even contains 8 grams of complete protein and 6 grams of fiber, so don't give up the bread, just choose the right kind!



#2-  QUINOA


While brown rice is thought to be the healthy grain, there's one even better, and that's quinoa.

Quinoa is a gluten free grain that contains double the protein of brown rice along with greater fiber content and a lower glycemic load.

Not only that, but quinoa is the ONLY grain to contain complete protein and the full spectrum of amino acids.  It comes in several varieties, including "oatmeal-like" flakes and it's wholegrain rice-like form.

Enjoy it as an oatmeal substitute for breakfast, in salads or casseroles, or as a wholesome whole-grain, high protein side item to any lunch or dinner meal.


#1-  BEANS, LENTILS, AND OTHER LEGUMES


Beans and lentils, part of the "legume" family, just may be the #1 choice for a healthy carb.  Packed with loads of fiber and protein, these guys come in so many different varieties that you'll never get bored.  Lentils, chickpeas, black eyed peas, black beans, red beans, kidney beans, navy beans, butter beans, lima beans, pinto beans...and the list goes on.

Because of their fiber & protein content, along with their versatility, try something from the legume family in at least on of your meals daily.
