How To Lose Your Belly Fat

 Inflammation of the bowel due to food intolerance, pesticides, preservatives and chemicals can  raise stress hormones, such as cortisol and activate the immune system. So Zero-Calorie foods like diet sodas can cause belly fat! Get it Tested :)

2. Are you aware of Endocrine Disruptors in your home?
Artificial chemicals called 'obesogens' or 'endocrine disruptors' and known to contribute to obesity. These are  found in various food containers, baby bottles, toys, plastics, cookware and cosmetics.

* BPA in plastic and canned foods

*  Phthalates  used to make plastic flexible 
* Parabens in makeup and personal hygiene products
