27 Belly Flattening Foods
Cynthia Sass, registered dietitian and co-author of Flat Belly Diet! has compiled a new annual list of belly-flattening foods that are full of fat-blasting nutrients like heart-healthy MUFAs (monosaturated fatty acids) and whole grains. These top 27 foods flat-belly foods are her favorite low calorie, non-processed snacks that will help you keep your summer weight-loss promises. Everything on the list is worthy of a try but I've narrowed down my top five favorite snacks:My favorite from the list:
- DeBoles Organic Ancient Grain Penne. Regular pasta semonlina flour may be tasty but it's calorie content isn't. Each serving of DeBoles provides 7 g of protein, which helps control blood sugar levels and regulates energy to keep hunger away.
- Naked Juice Probiotic Tropical Mango 100% Juice Smoothie. This yummy juice is made from 100 percent all-natural fruits and contains healthy bacteria that boosts immunity and promotes digestive health. Each bottle has 180-calories but gives you a day's worth of vitamin C and 60% of your daily intake of vitamin A. Plus it counts as two servings of fruit.
- Kraft LiveActive Mozzarella Cheese Sticks. This little cheese snack is perfect when you're on-the-go. Plus it contains 8 grams of protein and will only cost you 80 calories.
- Garden of Eatin' Baked Blue Corn Tortilla Chips. I love these organic blue corn chips. Not only are they tasty but each serving contains 3 grams of fiber and protein, 300 mg of omega-3 fatty acids and only has three grams of fat per ounce, which is half of what fried chips have.
- World of Grains Blueberry Snacks. These crunchy little blueberry treats are made from nutritious whole grains and contain real blueberries and each serving gives you 12 percent of your daily fiber intake.

I went to the Garden of Eatin website and they do not have a Baked Blue Blue Corn chip listed. Where did you hear about this product?

They are a new product and are not yet listed on the site. Check out the gallery for a photo. You'll be able to find them in almost any health food store.
