Dr. Travis Stork is best known for his role as a cast member on The Doctors. He's written a brand new diet book, The Lean Belly Prescription because he is very passionate about helping people trim this fat which he describes as "the easiest fat to lose!"

Dr. Stork says that belly fat is the most dangerous kind of fat because it surrounds major organs and damages their ability to function. Complications for belly fat include heart disease, cancer, stroke, arthritis, and type-2 diabetes. On the other hand, having a lean belly has been shown to have greater health benefits including better sleep, and can even make you smarter. People have a healthier heart and tend to enjoy a better sex life, as well as more money because of decreased health bills.

Complications of Belly Fat

• Heart disease
• Cancer
• Stroke
• Arthritis
• Type 2 diabetes
• Arousal dysfunction

The Lean Belly Prescription says you don't have to give up the foods you love to drop pounds and get rid of dangerous belly fat. It's a six week plan that advises participants to make small changes that can have big effects.

Dr. Stork introduces the concept of NEAT (non-exercise activity thermogenesis), where you can burn calories without going to the gym. Tips like walking to a co-worker's desk instead of sending an email, standing up to take a phone call, balancing on one leg while brushing your teeth, or even standing and manually washing the dishes instead of using the dishwasher... all simple tasks that increase your daily calorie burn without a gym membership or sweat!

Some simple tips that are mentioned on The Doctors that are also mentioned in Tim Ferriss's book, The 4-Hour Body include:

• Drink at least 8 cups of water per day
• Eat Nuts (strategically)
• Add ground cinnamon to your morning coffee to help suppress blood sugar spikes.
