1. Say goodbye to foods that make you bloat
A flat stomach starts with a good diet. And to avoid that pesky bloating, we start by reducing our consumption of dairy products, which in large quantities cause swelling. The list doesn't end there: no more fatty and salty foods such as cold cuts, cakes or other industrial products
. Regulate your stress
Easier said than done, of course. And yet... Stress is the worst enemy of the abdomen. Indeed, because of anxiety, some of our organs react by preventing the blood from circulating freely in the digestive tract. The consequences are then felt on the transit, causing constipation, diarrhoea or bloating. The solution? Relax and get rid of the bad vibes. Sport is your best ally.
3. Massage yourself
Ideal for digestion, eliminating bloating and limiting the accumulation of fat, a belly massage is quick and easy to do. How do you go about it? Locate the point 3 fingers below the navel. With your hands flat on your stomach, palms level with your navel, press your fingers on this area, stretch them outwards while breathing in, then breathing out. Repeat this movement 3 times and then take a break. Repeat the movement 3 times halfway between this point and the navel; pause, then do the movement 3 times at navel level this time.
4. Stand up straight
Anti-glamour and enemy number one of the abdominal belt, a hunched back promotes the relaxation of the abdominal muscles. So the worse you stand, the less firm your abdominal muscles will be. Learn to stand up straight in all circumstances. Not only will you gain muscle tone and improve your posture, but you'll look taller and more feminine. I promise!
5. Try homeopathy
Tired of having a swollen belly? Turn to plants! Carbo Vegetalis 5CH, or vegetable charcoal, is excellent with 3 homeopathic granules 30 minutes to 1 hour before a meal. Indeed, it is very good at absorbing up to 100 times its volume in gas, and thus eliminating gas due to fermentation in order to relieve bloating. China Rubra 9H or red cinchona bark is also recommended in case of a tense abdomen, at a rate of 5 granules 2 to 3 times a day.
6. Drink plenty of water
It's a scientific fact: during a strict diet, the body holds on to fat. When it is dehydrated, it retains fluids. The result? All that water that accumulates in the stomach causes uncomfortable bloating. To relieve bloating, drink water (about 1.5 litres a day) or herbal teas made from star anise, fennel, cumin or liquorice. An extra tip? Every morning, drink a large glass of lukewarm water with pure lemon juice.
