Doesn’t it feel like we blinked, and suddenly Ozempic is everywhere? Ozempic is a medication used to treat type 2 diabetes that also promotes weight loss. It is effective. But, it comes with some complaints. Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation. And the cost of Ozempic is a significant barrier for many.

If you love eating and you’d like to experience the benefits of Ozempic but don’t want to endure costly weekly injections that could leave you feeling nauseated for the rest of your life, I invite you to read on.
Deep belly fat, or visceral fat, that is stored around the abdominal organs is linked to significant health risks, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and certain cancers.
There are proven strategies for reducing belly fat. One that I’ve covered extensively on my blog is a low-carb diet. Another strategy is to boost your intake of polyphenols.
But here’s the thing: Polyphenols come from plants, and because plants make carbohydrates through photosynthesis, boosting polyphenols means you boost your carb intake.
Is there a way to marry these two strategies? In other words, can you enjoy your polyphenols and have your low-carb diet benefits, too? Absolutely, and not only is it enjoyable because of the great foods you get to eat, but it is also easy to follow and effective.
This blog post shares how polyphenols help to reduce belly fat and the low-carb foods that contain them.

Diet soda is not a healthy drink by any stretch of the imagination. However, a study involving more than a thousand participants showed that while drinking sugar-sweetened soda caused a significant increase in belly fat, drinking diet soda did not. After the six-year study period, diet soda consumption was not associated with belly fat gain.
While there is a lot more to healthy living than a flat stomach, having more belly fat (aka visceral fat) is linked to insulin resistance and an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and more. Is diet soda the solution? We’ll explore the study and address that question in this blog post.
If you don’t have an hour each day to do steady-state aerobic exercise. If a 20-minute High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) session fits your schedule but requires more effort than you are willing or able to do, I understand.
