Dairy products to lose weight and burn belly fat

Weight loss

Most of us search for weight loss tips and tricks as an escape from working out and following a strict diet. While there is no substitute to sweating it out in the gym, certain food products do help in speeding the fat burning process. And dairy products are one such thing. Dairy products are rich in calcium, which is vital for maintaining bone health. But what is not known is the fact that calcium also speeds up  fat burning, helping your weight loss process.

What happens when your diet is low in calcium?

Dietary calcium plays an important role in the regulation of fat metabolism inside adipocytes or fat cells. Dietary calcium triggers the production of calcium inside the fat cells, which in turn break down the fat and also prevent fat accumulation1. Hence, when your diet is low in calcium, your body stops breaking down fat and starts building up new fat cells and hence leads to weight gain, and a calcium-rich diet does the exact opposite.

Why dairy products?

Dairy products are touted to be relatively better than calcium supplements as they contain bio-active compounds like angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and branched chain amino acids that work with calcium to prevent fat accumulation1.

Daily consumption

Data confirmed from clinical trials suggests that three or more than three servings of dairy products daily can reduce the accumulated fat in the body and also accelerate fat loss 1. However, a study also claimed that calcium rich foods enhance the sensation of satisfaction and thereby reduce dietary fat intake over stimulating weight loss.Read how cheese and other milk products great for boosting your oral health
