Warning: 4 Things You Shouldn't Do To Reduce Fat Arms

By Katherine Crawford M.S.

Fat arm confusion is rampant. Never have women been more confused about how to get toned arms.

Why? Because all the marketing hype has created a sandstorm of false information. Even worse, there are times when the research isn't even clear.

And if the experts are having a hard time interpreting the research, how are you supposed to? You can't But I am here to the rescue.

So without further ado, here are 4 fat arm pitfalls exposed:

1. Assuming supplements are better than food. Nothing could be further from the truth. Most supplements don't work. Let me repeat that, most supplements don't work. Supplement regulation is broken in our country, that's the truth. Besides, whole foods interact with each other in beneficial ways that science doesn't fully understand.

2. Loading up on fiber. Metamucil is everywhere! Unfortunately, research has shown that supplementing with fiber can increase colon cancer risk. It's speculated that the free radicals from processing cause this. Not good!

3. Equating thinness with health. Being thin is no guarantee of having toned arms. And being thin is no guarantee of being healthy. I've seen thin women with flabby arms and I've seen thin women undergo triple bypass surgeries because their diets are so poor.

4. Thinking carbs are the only macronutrients that can mess with insulin. I have some bad news: saturated fat and high protein intakes can also mess up your insulin levels. So make sure you are eating with balance across all foods.

Ok, now you know 4 mistakes you shouldn't make in your journey to get sexy and lean arms. And knowing what to avoid is extremely important in any endeavor. After all, time spent doing useless things is time that could be used to get you closer to your goal. - 17269
