Learn More »Even if you eat well and meet your fitness and wellness goals, sometimes a perfectly justifiable meal out or an indulgent evening of boozing (hey, a girl's gotta live a little) can leave you feeling like you're back at square one the next morning. While you may logically know that bloating happens to everyone and that there are a multitude of causes (salty restaurant food and alcohol among them), feeling heavy feels-ugh-less than stellar. There are a million and one articles out there about what to eat to banish bloat. But when you wake up feeling crummy, you're kind of beyond caring whether some magic blue unicorn juice you can only get at this one café in Los Angeles will prevent bloating. (Yeah, you could have also alternated those glasses of champagne with water last night, but it was Veuve Clicquot and you were having a great time.) Don't despair-all you have to do is make breakfast instead. Some people might think that starving yourself after a big night out is the best way to get back on track, but it's not. In fact, doing that can wreak havoc on your blood sugar and mood, setting you up to overeat later. (You are probably beginning to see a pattern, right?) Starting your day with a balanced meal, on the other hand, will fuel you well to get back into your usual groove. And just like a back-at-it gym session, eating a regular meal helps get digestion back to normal. The best news yet: You might already have some of the best bloat-beating foods in your kitchen right now. These are my top picks. Asparagus: Asparagus has a mild diuretic effect and is also a potent source of the antioxidant glutathione, which has been noted for its detoxifying effects. Avocado: The fruit is high in bloat-soothing potassium as well as filling fiber and healthy fats.

Learn More »Your genetics prefer storing fat in your stomach area Visceral fat—the type of fat the body stores in your abdomen and around your intestines and is mostly responsible for keeping people from a flat belly—can be partly determined by genetics.
Tomophafan/Shutterstock You have food allergies or food sensitivities Genetics also play a role in food allergies and food sensitivities, according to Dr. Nusbaum. These food issues could also be to blame for excess belly fat and bloat. For example, he says, “if you are African American and your genetics are purely from sub-Saharan Africa, where [your ancestors] didn’t have corn, and you love your sodas and are drinking tons of high-fructose corn syrup, you’re going to store that away as fat because your body can’t metabolize it preferentially.” Not all food allergies result in hives or breakouts; some trigger things like inflammation and abdominal distention, or expansion of the stomach and waist, making the belly less flat. Other common examples are celiac disease and gluten sensitivity. leungchopan/Shutterstock Your gut microbiome is off-balance If your gut microbiome is off-balance, you’ll end up with gas, bloating, and a not-so-flat stomach, Dr. Nusbaum says. And Miami-based internist Pamela Merino, MD, adds that more research is needed to see how gut health specifically affects fat storage. Dr. Merino points to research published in the Yale Journal of Biology and Medicine in 2016, which shows that stool transplants from thin people to overweight people result in weight loss—and the only explanation is that thin people’s microbiomes are better at burning fat. Gut bacteria may also have an impact on how the body digests different foods and nutrients, as well as influence whether you feel hungry or full, which can affect your weight. Think about adjusting your diet to include these 15 foods proven to flatten your belly.
