The Zero Belly Fat Diet Basics


The zero belly fat 1 month eating plan with 35 zero belly recipes attacks
the most dangerous type fat on your body, Belly Fat! This visceral fat is
the specific fat that new medical research has identified as the origin of
many modern diseases and cancers.
Heart disease and diabetes are just 2 of the plethora of modern diseases
that are more likely to attack you if you have excess belly fat and obesity.
The zero belly diet targets your belly fat specifically. By reducing and
eliminating dangerous belly fat you will dramatically reduce the chances of
suffering diabetes, strokes, heart disease, cancers and many auto-immune
diseases.
The purpose of this diet and monthly eating plan is to switch off the
genetic fat inducing genes and switch on the fat burning genes that have
been redundant up until now.
3 Square Meals a Day:
The zero belly diet is not a restrictive diet. It is a generous diet that will
allow you plenty of food each day. Restrictive diets that force you to
eliminate many foods that provide you with optimal nutrition are the most
failed diets of all.
This diet gives you a wide selection of nutritious, fat burning, metabolism
boosting foods that include 3 square meals a day and the choice of 2 fatburning drinks per day, smoothies and protein shakes.

Zero Belly Fat Recipes


The zero belly diet monthly eating-plan includes 20 delicious dinner
recipes, full of variety and flavor so that you will never get bored with
eating the same bland and restrictive recipes other diets have.
There are 10 nutritious, fat burning breakfast and lunch recipes that
allow you to have a different lunch or breakfast every day of the week.
Note that some of the dinner recipes can be eaten as lunches too, great for
leftovers.
Combined with 5 smoothie and shake recipes to keep you full of fiber
and nutrients you will never go wanting for variety and flavor with the 1
month eating plan that compliments the zero belly diet.

Fat Burning Smoothies and Shakes


These drinks are full of protein, nutrients, good fats and fiber with specific
ingredients that together provide your body with maximum fat-burning
fuel and Meta-Metabolic stimulation. They will have you feeling fuller for
longer.
The satiating factor built into the drink ingredients means you will be less
inclined to give in to the temptation of snacking on empty carb laden
snacks and sugar filled rubbish during the day.

Nutritional Benefits
A vitally important part of the belly fat diet is nutrients. The 1 month
eating plan provides you with the essential nutrients that your dietary
system requires for the assault on your belly fat and body fat.
One month on the eating plan will start to reveal that lean, natural muscle
that you used to have in your youth. Your body will become more toned
and bloating and inflammation will be reduced or even eliminated.
3 Essential Questions:
3 essential questions that everyone should ask themselves when sitting
down to a meal are,

Is there enough fiber in this meal?


Is there enough protein in this meal?
Is there enough healthy fat in this meal?

The 1 month zero belly fat eating plan is designed to accommodate these 3
questions into the recipes so that you dont have to plan for or research
them yourself.
Just by following the eating plan you will enjoy plenty of variety in the
dishes which are flavorsome and filling, and include many of the foods
you already enjoy.

The Zero Belly Diet Foods


The great variety of foods which are included in the zero belly diet and 1
month eating plan comprise of carefully researched ingredients that are
abundant in micro-nutrients.
The completion of the human genome project has enabled nutritional
researches not only to identify genetic trigger foods that cause increased
weight and belly fat, but also enabled them to identify beneficial foods that
reduce weight and belly fat.
It is these beneficial trigger-foods that have been included in the zero belly
diet. By combining these multiple ingredients in each recipe you are
gaining triple and quadruple the power of fat-burning and meta- metabolic
benefits.
Foods Included In the Diet:
You will enjoy a great variety of foods on this diet including,

Lean meats,
Seafood and fish,
Fruits
Bright colored vegetables,
Cruciferous vegetables (leafy greens)
Healthy fats and coconut and olive oil
Rice, oats, beans and other fibrous foods
Smoothies and protein shakes
Spices, herbs and flavors
Yummy desserts and more

The zero belly fat diet includes the needed foods that provide optimum
amounts of vitamins, protein, nutrients and satiating fiber that your body

demands for rapid weight loss and maximum nutritional benefits.


The 1 month zero belly eating-plan will help you to reverse those genetic
identifiers that caused you to gain the belly fat in the first place.
Even if you have tried many diets before this and maybe lost a few pounds
only to regain them and more, the zero belly eating-plan will educate your
body to flip that genetic switch off and help to turn your fat belly into a
flat belly.

You will notice the positive differences within the first week by reducing
uncomfortable bloating and you will notice a lessening of that heavy,
sluggish feeling you get when you eat meals.
Many of the foods incorporated into the zero belly diet are targeted
towards reducing inflammation that is a dangerous precursor to many
diseases and ailments that are derived from excess belly fat.
The anti-inflammatory ingredients in the meals and shakes will tackle this
serious health issue dramatically reducing inflammation is necessary in
order for your body to sustain the continuous loss of belly fat.

Water and Hydration


Another important aspect of the zero belly fat diet is the consumption of
your daily water requirement. 8 tall glasses of filtered water every day is
needed to flush toxins from your body, stimulate proper digestion, boost
your sluggish metabolism and hydrate your body.
But drinking that much water every day is a challenge to anyone which is
why the belly fat diet includes healthy, nutritious, but delicious shakes and
smoothies that make meeting that target a lot simpler and more enjoyable.

Zero Belly Coconut Flour Tortillas


One of the difficult aspects of the zero diet is missing out on flour for bread and other
baked products. Hence I created these coconut flour tortillas which are a sort of crepetortilla hybrid and are delicious and can be used for many different zero belly recipes as
a bread replacement.
Total Time: 30 minutes
Prep: 15 minutes
Cook: 15 minutes
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients:
a cup of coconut flour
a tsp. of wheat-free baking powder
tsp. of ground kosher sea salt
16 egg whites, free-range
cup of almond milk
Description:
Mix all of these ingredients in a stainless steel or glass bowl.
Let the mix sit for around 10 minutes so that the coconut flour absorbs much of the
moisture, and then whisk the mix again. The tortilla batter should ideally be runnier than
that of a pancake mix.
Heat up a non-stick skillet over a medium to high heat and spray with extra-virgin oil to
coat the bottom and sides of the skillet.
Pour a of a cup of the batter into the skillet and give the skillet a swirl so that the
tortilla is thin.
Once the bottom is done, use a rubber spatula to release the edges of the tortilla then
turn it over. When done plate the tortilla.
Spray the skillet again and repeat the steps until your batter is used up.
Note: Make use of the egg yolks by using them for omelets and scrambles for zero belly

breakfasts and lunches during the week.
