Overview

Friends, no one of us likes to have a big round belly. But the main reason for most of us trying to burn belly fat is that we want to look good and fit.

We are more worried when we have to attend a marriage of our relatives in the next few days or weeks.

The greatest worry is whether the costly clothes put in the wardrobe and meant for such occasions would fit or not.

We are not generally aware of the good and positive thing behind this desire and that is health.

The excess fat around your waist may invite serious health issues like high blood sugar, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, heart disease, and many more.

A lifestyle and eating habits are also necessary to stay slim fit and healthy

Though there is no shortcut to burning belly fat instantly but we will discuss here some tips, exercises, and home remedies to burn belly fat.

Causes of belly fat

The main cause of excess belly fat is our lifestyle and input-output imbalance. In plain language, if we eat more and work less, the excess calories and fat are stored in our body around the waist and stomach, because that area is the most vulnerable and nearest to the food source.

The other factors may be environmental factors, genetics, lack of sleep, consumption of excess alcohol, stress, smoking, sugary foods, and poor diet.

Every 3500 excess calories increase your body fat by one pound. So, to burn every pound of fat, you have to cut down or burn 3500 calories.

People say that reducing only the belly area is not possible until you reduce your whole body weight. This is partially true. You can burn belly fat by mainly targeting that area and doing workouts affecting that area.

Let us discuss how you can burn belly fat at home.
