MANILA, Philippines – Worried about your muffin top? Despair no more, because you have MUFAs (moo-fah) to help you blast those belly fats while still getting the appropriate amount of unsaturated fat that your body needs.

MUFAs are monounsaturated fatty acids, plant-based fats found in some of the world’s most delicious foods. Previous studies show that aside from the fat blasting benefit, these good fats also enhance heart health and protect you against chronic disease.

Flat Belly Diet as edited by researchers Liz Vaccariello and Cynthia Sass, suggests MUFA-rich food that would help you trim fat, especially those in your belly.

Studies have shown that eating one serving of one of these foods with each meal helps people lose weight and body fat without cutting on calories.
