HOW TO REDUCE FACE FAT NATURALLY AT HOME !!

• Cryotherapy: In this therapy which can be performed at the comfort of your home is when your body is exposed to the hot and cold showers alternatively. Performing long term Cryotherapy could help in cutting down excess face and body fat, as it helps in the disintegration of fat cells. As an alternative to taking showers you can dip your face in Icy cold water, but make sure the Vagus Nerve that starts at the center of the forehead gets dipped well. This therapy can provide you with almost 70% skin benefits.

• Routine is Required: For being fat to fab, attention and consistency in your daily activities is required. This comes with having a proper morning and night routine, balancing the calories in the meals you take. For Example: having high protein breakfast cuts cravings and aids in weight loss by decreasing the levels of Ghrelin (the Hunger Hormone). Also weigh yourself each morning, which could be an effective method to boost your motivation for weight loss and self discipline. Spending some time in the sunlight in the morning can pose some skin and health benefits. When applying a cream or moisturiser be aware while moving your finger tips in the upward direction on your face, to maintain the proper structure. 

• Hydration is the Mantra: Drinking water at frequent intervals boosts metabolism, keeps you full and reduces sudden cravings. Therefore, I advise my clients to have plenty of water that helps flush out harmful toxins, to have better fluid circulation, to reduce puffiness and make you look pretty. You can also try switching to naturally hydrating foods and juices especially melon, berries, cucumber, celery, citrus fruits, fresh herbs, coconut water, healthy smoothies, buttermilk. To shed off fat from your body I advise my clients to take at least 1 litre of water with added lemon and a pinch of pink salt to it, in the morning, that helps bring results. 

• Good sleep time: To reduce face fat naturally at home, sleep deficiency cannot be taken into account. Deficient sleep shoots up Cortisol level (the stress hormone) that contributes to irregular eating habits like having food higher in calories and can lead to body and face fat. Having a good sleep is important for weight loss that assists you lose facial fat. We should pay extra attention to your sleep as it helps in reducing those stucked extra Kilos in our body.

• Do watch your Sodium intake: Excess sodium is one of the key ingredients that causes water retention in our body that gets reflected on your face as extra fat. Sodium intake leads to the symptom of bloating that contributes to facial puffiness and swelling.  

 

• Eating Sugar, No People: Take a step back from refined carbs like sugar, it causes the unwanted fat around the belly, on your face as well and the overall body. Refined Carbs such as cookies, white breads, pasta, sucrose, syrups and frosting are common culprits of weight gain. These highly processed carbs lack beneficial nutrients and fibre and leaves behind only calories. Switching to Stevia is still a healthier option to pacify your sugar cravings.

• More Fibre to your Diet: It's a free but valuable advice that for losing face fat and body fat in general increase the Fibre intake. Fibre intake is associated with weight loss as it helps crave cravings and takes care of your appetite and restricts your calorie intake. Try consuming Oatmeal, barley or related cereals. Fibres can be naturally found in a variety of foods, including green veggies, seeds, nuts, legumes. Having high fibre food cleanses the colon, curbs hunger, supports metabolism and balances hormones. 

• Cardio/ Aerobic Exercise: Plan and incorporate a type of activity or workout that increases your heart rate, because that is an ideal way to burn out extra fat from your face and body. Studies suggest that Cardio helps promote fat burning and losing the unwanted fat and helps slim down your face and body and in turn make it better in appearance. Common Cardio Exercise could be running, dancing, walking, jogging, swimming that can be performed at low, moderate or high intensity. High Energy contributes to high intensity exercise which increases Growth Hormone; an anti ageing hormone and tones up overall physique, also weight exercises help in developing lean muscle mass.

• Consume More Collagen Protein: Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body, that’s needed for skin elasticity, youthfulness, texture and structure. Therefore, it is quite necessary to manage the collagen levels in your body. After the age of 25 years, 1-2% collagen, the most abundant protein in our diet, gets reduced. Protein is an important ingredient for weight loss and having a good looking face and body. 

Eating a more protein rich diet helps in major reduction in the cravings and the desire to snack. Eating plenty of protein can reduce Muscle loss, that helps to keep the metabolic rate higher as you lose fat from your face and body.
