😫 Belly fat - how do you get rid of it? What's the best exercise for it? How can we reduce it?

❓ These are some of the most common questions people ask Google and in a shocking survey by Women's Health, 43% of women are uncomfortable getting naked in front of a partner due to their stomach or belly fat.

😔 That's such a sad statistic - so we needed to talk about it!

🎙 In this episode of the Body Smart podcast, the conversation took a surprising turn.

🗣 Gemma said, "I was expecting us to discuss the foods we should eat and the exercise we should do to avoid belly fat but instead we ended up talking about why we get belly fat in the first place and how our habits and overeating behaviours are very much influenced by stress."

👉 In addition to explaining what belly fat is we also uncovered

2️⃣ The two types of belly fat
✅ Why having fat is necessary for our health
🍔 How to stop stress and emotional eating
🧬 How the menopause affects behaviour and therefore increases belly fat
🧑‍🔬 How there's no change to the metabolism of women until the age of 60
🤯 The CRAZY lengths people will go to reduce belly fat
