An Apple a Day: Fruit That Burns Belly Fat Before Meals

According to experts, consuming an apple before a meal can help burn belly fat and promote weight loss. Apples are rich in fiber, which creates a feeling of fullness and reduces calorie intake. Nutritionist Rob Hobson states that apples are three times more filling than a chocolate bar and much healthier. Pectin, a fiber found in apples, regulates gut bacteria, contributing to preventing weight gain. Studies suggest that eating an apple daily before dinner can help lose weight often gained during quarantine.
