You can have foods that are rich in omega-3 fats. They can greatly reduce your stress levels and help in melting off whole body fat, especially the tummy fats.

Try to go for a brisk walk, a bike ride or even climbing the steps. You would have seen many fitness books and e-books asking you to go for a walk daily. Though it's a repetitive content, it's for sure you can lose belly fat and cut down your stress levels when you walk for an hour everyday.

Go Mediterranean. The Mediterranean Diet is a boon twice over: It reduces weight and chronic disease.

Decompress every day. Deep-tummy breathing, meditation and muscle relaxation therapy (in which you tense and then relax your muscles, moving down the body from head to toes) are all tried and true ways to beat stress.

Your fat accumulation in the body is increased by the stress. When you mount up the food along with the increased stress levels, then you are sure to mount up the insulin and cortisol in the body.

Think positively. Negative thought patterns create stress, but if you learn to look on the bright side more, you can cut tension. Pick up any of the books which are filled with tips on how to improve your outlook and combat negative imagining.

There is a controversy in the argument of carbohydrate rich processed foods like cookies, bread and pasta causing relaxation to the people. The tryptophan is introduced into the amino acids by eating the simple carbs. The building blocks of the feel-good neurotransmitter called as the serotonin are these amino acids. When this goes through the brain with the high levels of serotonin, you will have a calm feel.

Still, the problem here is that when there is a tiny quantity of protein in your body, this automatically hinders the route of tryptophan. The good feel that you get after feeding a metabolized simple carbs is equated with the increase in blood sugar and with the release of endorphins in brain.

To have an unstressed life, here are some foods.

Fish (especially fatty fish such as sardines, salmon, herring and mackerel) Flaxseed Fruit lean protein (skinless chicken and turkey breast) Monounsaturated oils (olive, peanut, canola) Nuts (walnuts, pecans, almonds, pine nuts, cashews) Olives Soybeans Vegetables Wheat germ

The magnified chances of getting many diseases and the excess storage of fats in the body are the results of having more cortisol receptors in the body.

It's in our hands to melt off our stress factor.

Try following these foods to reduce your stress levels and to keep down stomach fats.
