Foods that contain saturated and trans fats, such as fried foods, fast food, and foods processed with palm oil, can increase levels of fat in the body and trigger inflammation which can interfere with digestive function. If you really want to get a flat stomach, the habit of eating a row of these foods needs to be reduced, even avoided.

Instead, it is recommended to eat healthy foods, such as fruits, vegetables, and low-fat sources of protein, such as fish and chicken.

2. Less sleep time

Lack of sleep can trigger an increase in stress hormone levels in the body, which results in the accumulation of fat in the stomach. In addition, lack of sleep can also affect digestive function and metabolism, which inhibits the process of burning calories so that the body is more susceptible to fat accumulation.

Because of this, you need to improve your sleep deprivation habits. Try to sleep for 7-8 hours every night so that your body stays healthy and fit.

3. Lazy to Move

Physical activity is very important for maintaining a healthy body and reducing the risk of various diseases, including obesity and digestive disorders. When you are sedentary or inactive, your body will lack the stimulation needed to keep your organs and metabolism functioning.

This can make the metabolism slow and cause fat accumulation in the stomach. So, try to move more throughout the day.

You can do light activities such as walking or climbing stairs, or do regular physical activities such as exercise or yoga.
