Hello, eggs are a high-protein food that can help the body burn excess abdominal fat; they also contain vitamin B12, which aids in breaking down fat cells. Low-fat or fat-free dairy products—such as non-fat yogurt and low-fat milk—help strengthen bones and muscles while supporting the body’s fat-burning process. Unsweetened, unflavored oatmeal is low in calories and helps lower blood cholesterol levels. Lotus root starch is also low in calories; its primary function is to provide energy, it places virtually no burden on the gastrointestinal tract, and it helps soothe and nourish the stomach and intestines. We hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you a happy and healthy life!
