Fitness guru Michelle Lovitt hasn’t counted kilojoules since the ’80s. Her secret? Fill your fridge with clean foods that make healthy eating a cinch. Here’s a sneak peek inside her science-loaded shelves.
Green Tea
Studies say if you drink four cups daily for three months you’ll have less belly fat. Nice!
Sprouted Wholegrain Bread
Enzymes in sprouted bread make the grains easier to digest.
Organic Apples
Soluble fibre in apple skin helps to stabilise blood sugar levels.
Mushrooms
Mushrooms are high in vitamin D—linked to fat loss in post-menopausal women.
Tomatoes & Garlic
Tomatoes have cortisol-lowering C, while garlic boosts metabolism and regulates blood sugar.
Blueberries
These tiny blue gems contain antioxidants that help the body burn fat.
Avocado
A good source of belly-fat-quelling fatty acids, great for salads and smoothies.
Kale & Broccoli
Contain indole-3-carbinol that help reduce oestrogens.
Chicken & Turkey
Aim to get 30% of your energy from lean protein.
Greek Yoghurt
Yoghurt is rich in protein, with bloat-busting probiotics.
Lemon Water
High levels of vitamin C can reduce cortisol, while staying hydrated wards off bloating.
Salmon
A regular on Lovitt’s grill. This pink fish is packed with omega-3s, fatty acids that help build muscle.
