7 ways to a flatter belly without sweating

2. Slow down

Eating too fast is a major cause of belly bloat. It can be hard to take your time when there are so many things vying for your attention, but eating at a more relaxed pace can really pay off for your waistline and help you get rid of that full, gassy feeling.

Taking the time to thoroughly chew your food is very important. If you don’t chew well, the bacteria in your digestive tract feeds on the chunks of undigested food. In turn, this causes gas.

Try spending 30 minutes on your meal time instead of just rushing through and you’ll notice a difference in how you feel. You also may find it interesting that skinny people eat slower.

One trick that helps is listening to this appetite-controlling sound: Researchers have found that the noise your food makes while you’re eating can have a significant effect on how much food you eat.
