Best Foods for Fighting Belly Fat

Research into the effect of dietary fat on body composition, supported by the Canola Council of Canada, continues to generate media interest. Huffington Post published a roundup of the six best foods to trim your middle. Number four on the list is canola oil. The article cites study findings that adding canola oil to diets helped people lose ¼ pound of belly fat in four weeks.
 
“New research findings suggest that consuming canola oil may help to decrease abdominal fat,” explains Manuel Villacorta, MS, RD, and CanolaInfo spokesperson in a blog post and video on Whole Body Reboot (view the Spanish version here). “Most people don’t know that using the right cooking oil can help reduce belly fat,” adds Villacorta.
