Summer is here, and we all want to look perfect. But most of us are ashamed to wear bikinis because of having a big size tummy.

Learn more about the causes of unwanted growth around the waist and how to get rid of it.

Stress Belly
This type of belly is thick, not loose, and occurs when the fat is concentrated around the belly button.

The causes: Chronic stress, skipping meals, drinking lots of coffee, (IBS) irritable bowel syndrome, eating junk food.

How to get rid of it: It’s very important to go to bed early and relax before sleep. Deep breathing exercises, relaxing baths, or meditation will do the trick. Don’t overexert your body with cardio exercising, instead, you can take long walks or do yoga. Include magnesium in your diet. This mineral can be found in nuts, dark green veggies, and wheat bran.

Low Belly
This type of belly often occurs in slim people.

The causes: Recent motherhood, monotonous exercise in the gym, doing lots of crunches and squats, unhealthy diet, spinal curvature.

How to get rid of it: Include foods rich in fiber in your diet, such as green leafy veggies and whole-grain bread. If you are doing to many squats, you’re probably doing them incorrectly and exerting too much effort on your lower back. Replace them with planks. You can also try circuit training, that way, you’ll work every muscle group.
