  4. There is a whole natural diet that you can follow if you wish to eat foods that burn belly fat those food items would include bananas, rice, applesauce and toast. These are the food items which can be helpful for you naturally if you need to stop a health condition like diarrhea. It is true this may lead you into a very bad health condition but nothing to worry as it is easy to cure.
