    For middle-aged friends, beer belly is a more terrifying existence than hair loss.

    You can still wear a wig for hair loss, and you can't cover your beer belly.

    The man was supposed to be forty-one flowers, but he was ruined by a beer belly.

    Although a beer belly is called a beer belly, it is not filled with beer, and a large amount of fat is accumulated on the belly, making the belly look bulging.

    When people consume calories, if there are excess calories that are not consumed, the excess calories will be converted into fat and stored, that is, fat.

    Sadly, fat is not evenly distributed throughout the body, and they tend to pile up on men's stomachs and women's thighs.

    Middle-aged men who usually have a beer belly don't become beer bellies when they drink too much beer. After all, a bottle of beer is really not very caloric high.

    1 bottle of beer 750 ml, the energy of which is about 240 kcal. It's about the equivalent of two large Fuji apples, or half a bowl of white rice.

    Is beer innocent? It can only be said that it is not the original sin of heat, but it is not innocent either. Drinking beer will make people eat a lot of things, this is because the alcohol and sugar in beer do not bring enough satiety, and they have to eat again, eat a lot of things, and it is impossible to drink only one bottle of wine, and there will be a surplus of calories.

    So in essence, eating too much and eating too many calories is the original sin. Thinking about it this way, liquor is not innocent in the same way; The same makes people eat more, so why not call it white wine belly? Grievances for beer.

    There are many people who can drink three or five bottles of beer without delaying their food; But there are really few people who can drink three bottles of liquor and not fall down.

    There are two reasons why middle-aged people are more likely to grow beer bellies! Basal metabolism deteriorates as we age

    Stressed adults secrete hormones from the brain

    There are old and young, and it is a time of great pressure. However, when stressed, the human brain secretes the hormone cortisol, which can make people feel the urge to eat.

    With the same height and weight, people with beer belly are more likely to suffer from hyperglycemia than people who are uniformly obese. In addition, beer belly is also associated with a variety of diseases, such as diabetes, fatty liver, stomach cancer, and so on.

    For the sake of body and health, it is imperative to lose beer belly!

    Reducing beer belly should be started from two aspectsControl your diet

    Male friends must pay attention to minimize the frequency and amount of beer they drink, and pay attention to their own healthy diet. In order to flatten the abdomen, you should pay attention to your diet, control the calories in your body, eat more light food, don't eat every meal, try to shrink your stomach, so that the fat of the internal organs and the fat under the skin can slowly decline, so that you can see the flat abdomen and expose the beautiful abdominal muscles.

    Exercise exercises

    Running, swimming, cycling, mountaineering, ......This type of aerobic exercise and local exercises such as sit-ups and four-point support go hand in hand, and it is easy to say goodbye to beer belly and stay in shape.

    If you insist on doing the above two points well, after a while, your beer belly will disappear quickly like a punctured balloon.

    Many men begin to understand the importance of running and exercising when they reach middle age, but their weight does not change much, and even appears"Beer code family belly"or"General's belly"And the reason for this, I think: not enough exercise. The weight of the body changes, and the consumption exceeds the ability to consume, at least the weight is slowly reduced.

    According to relevant studies, the loss of kilogram weight requires the consumption of at least 7,300 calories. It is recommended to exercise 5 days a week, and you can exercise for about 40 minutes each timeCut back on certain recreational activities, especially in the evenings. Because people drink in social situations, they will eat a lot of things late when they drink, which increases their intake at night.

    <> a good friend of mine, he often participates in some half marathons, the race time is about 2 hours, and there are three to four times a week about 10 kilometers of running exercises, but he usually has a lot of meals, after more than two years of practice, his belly fat has not disappeared, according to the research analysis, I am the main reason for his dinner at night, after listening to him, eat less breakfast, socialize more at night, and his weight has basically not changed much. According to"Consumption"Ingestion"This basic reason, without a certain amount of consumption, it is difficult to consume body fat, and it is impossible to talk about weight loss, we should believe in science. It is necessary to control the diet, strengthen sleep management (sleep at least 7 hours a day, and stay up less late), and the diet structure is very important for everyone's weight management.

    Running 10 kilometers calorie consumption is a pack of instant noodles, after running or eating and drinking, there is no effect, the amount of exercise depends on the amount of exercise every day, some people just walk slowly, can not guarantee the distance, some square dance also think that there is a physiological load of exercise. This excavation is just a little better than the fixed, think that this is basically good, is it okay, and marathon runners are not comparable, have you ever seen a few fat marathon runners, in short, your body will not deceive you, it doesn't work, it's that you haven't done enough, it's difficult to do, it's not without effect, ordinary people run about 10 kilometers a day, control your diet.

    Landlord, to give you some reference materials, I suggest you take a look at it to understand the reasons why you get fat or not by drinking.

    It is true that people who drink alcohol regularly tend to gain weight, but alcohol itself does not cause weight gain. The most common reason for drinking alcohol to gain weight is that you consume more high-energy foods such as meat, fish, and fat while drinking, resulting in excessive total energy intake.

    All kinds of alcohol contain varying amounts of alcohol (also known as ethanol), and the higher the alcohol content, the higher the alcohol content. Alcohol is metabolized in the body into water, carbon dioxide, and energy. In this process, alcohol is neither converted into fat, nor into sugar, or glycogen, or anything that can cause weight gain.

    Moreover, alcohol is always metabolized preferentially and cannot be stored in the body itself.

    However, there are still many people who drink alcohol and do gain weight, and some have formed a typical "beer belly". Why? Experts believe that the most common reason for drinking alcohol to gain weight is that you consume more high-energy foods such as meat, fish, and oil while drinking, resulting in excessive total energy intake.

    On the contrary, the kind of person who only drinks alcohol and does not eat vegetables will not gain weight. Therefore, while drinking alcohol, pay attention to reduce the intake of fat, meat, fish, eggs, nuts, and eat more vegetables (not good for stir-fried vegetables with more oil), fruits, seafood, and soy products (fried or oily are not allowed). It is recommended to control the time of eating vegetables within half an hour, and the rest of the time, only drink alcohol and do not eat vegetables, or only eat fruits, cold vegetables, dipping pickles, and a small amount of staple food (only oil-free food) and so on.

    Another reason to get fat from drinking alcohol is to drink too much. Alcohol contains a lot of energy, 1 gram of alcohol can provide 7 kcal of energy (1 gram of fat provides 9 kcal). Although alcohol is always metabolized preferentially and is not converted into fat.

    However, while alcohol is metabolized to provide energy, it saves the consumption of other energy substances in the body, such as sugars and fats. For example, if you don't drink alcohol for dinner, then in the middle of the night, your heartbeat, circulation, body temperature, breathing and other vital activities will be maintained by burning fat. But if you drink alcohol for dinner, then in the middle of the night, these vital activities are maintained by consuming alcohol, and the result is that fat is "saved". In other words, although alcohol cannot be directly converted into body fat, it does increase body fat indirectly.

    Therefore, if you drink too much, you will also gain weight. In order to avoid gaining weight, when drinking a lot of alcohol, you should reduce your food intake, and further reduce the consumption of high-energy foods such as fat, meat, fish, staple foods, sweets, and nuts on the basis of the above suggestions to control your total energy intake.

    A more effective (but also more difficult) suggestion is to increase the amount of work after drinking, such as mopping the floor (1 hour), moving things (30 minutes), climbing stairs (30 minutes), walking (more than 1 hour), etc., which can not only consume the energy consumed by alcohol, but also excrete a part of the alcohol through sweating, breathing faster, etc., and reduce its damage to the liver.

    Everyone knows that it is easy to gain weight if you drink too much, and the calories of alcohol are not the only reason for drinking alcohol, alcohol will not only reduce the body to burn fat, but also the alcohol itself has the effect of promoting appetite and affecting endocrine, so that you can consume less fat and lose more muscle.

    1. Alcohol hinders fat burning.

    One gram of alcohol is equal to 7 kilocalories, and it used to be thought that drinking too much alcohol would be converted into fat, but this is not the case. A recent study published in the American Journal of Clinical Medicine shows that only about 5% of alcohol is converted into fat, but the body burns 73% less fat after drinking. In other words, the body stops burning fat and uses alcohol as fuel.

    It is not difficult to see from here that the human body is very adaptable, and whatever fuel is more, it uses what it is, without consuming fat.

    2. Alcohol increases appetite.

    Drinking and eating are often combined. Alcohol is also an appetite booster, and the same meal, if accompanied by alcoholic beverages, tends to whet the appetite. Plain water and carbonated drinks are nowhere near as appetizing.

    Alcohol affects the endocrine system.

    Drinking a lot of alcohol at one time may lead to an increase in cortisone production and a decrease in testosterone production in the body, with the direct result that the body consumes muscle instead of synthesizing it. If you drink a lot of alcohol after exercising, the breakdown of muscles will be even more severe.

    To sum up, heavy drinking will not only have a lot of calories, but will inhibit the body from burning fat, promote appetite, and make muscle loss. It is recommended that friends who want to ** do not drink excessively, especially not after exercise. Do not drink more than 200 ml of red wine and 600 ml of beer at a time.
