Dr. Klaper explains to us about belly fat and visceral fat when eating a plant based diet. He tells us how to get rid of belly fat but also cautions us to consider if there are other factors at play. As our bodies age we can't expect to be at the same weight we were at in our earlier years.

I did not know about the connection between belly fat and estrogen. Very interesting, thank you.

[weston.weston]

This is my exact question. I am not overweight and I am very active. My stomach is not pudgy, per se, but it is also not completely flat and I cannot figure why!!

He gave a compelling response.

Good stuff...and hey, a little bit more exercise is needed as well.

Thank you for sharing. Could you make a food combining video? Thank you. 💛

Very informative, thank you. I didn't know about the role of subcutaneous fat in providing estrogen to the post-menopausal woman. It does make me see that fat in a more friendly way! Also, great to get a confirmation that to reduce visceral fat, cut out flour products. This was a recent revelation for me. I knew already to avoid added oils and of course all animal products and highly processed foods.

Eat mostly in the morning. Move around a bit. Done.

[hannemarielorenzen]

flour products - ? - also grains as OATS, rice, quinoa, seeds, millet, fara, dinkel wheat, whole grain bread . . . . . . . ? Will gram flour, lentil flour and oat flour be good - or? Any article on this anywhere?

Rice banana and coconut sugar and I can't loose weight
Love dattes too ... but it's doesn't help...

[cataime]

So how do we stop the constant bloating?

[plantbasedethos]

Very good info. But Humans are rather more Frugivore than Herbivore, we can´t digest cellulose as well as fructose. Fruit is the most optimal food for humans in my opinion!

I got fat after I went vegan, and continue to struggle. I use to mostly eat meat and vegetables, and was always lean and muscular, now I only eat carbs and vegetables but have become fat and soft. I don’t eat bread and I don’t eat sugar or processed food, and I also only use coconut oil. I’ve never struggled with my weight in my entire life until now.
