7 Natural Foods to Help You Lose Weight

David Hill wrote Came across this interesting item We all love our steaks and our spuds but what if we could make them healthier? Well, according to research currently being conducted all over the world, there are certain spices, vegetables and fruits that can actually turn an unhealthy dish into one that burns the cals! Horseradish: It comes from the Brassicaceae family (which includes mustard, wasabi and broccoli) and while it may be super spicy, it can help dissolve fat from inside your cells, which research from the University of Copenhagen says may stop you from getting hungry. It goes incredibly well with steak, so you’ll be having what you love while losing weight! Cinnamon: Research by the American Department of Agriculture discovered that consuming a quarter of a teaspoon of cinnamon every day for six weeks can significantly reduce your blood glucose and cholesterol levels. Seasoning your dishes with this tasty spice or substituting sugar for cinnamon in your cappuccino can help you lose weight in the long run! Pineapple: Being a natural source of enzyme bromelain - an enzyme that breaks down protein and helps raise the metabolic rate - pineapples are serious fat-fighters! Combining this with jalapeños can boost your weight loss and help you lose weight like nothing else, especially as Laval University in Canada found that these spicy devils help burn 1,000 more calories a day when eaten! Grapefruit: This citrus fruit is jam-packed with vitamin C and, according to research conducted at the Scripps Clinic in San Diego, eating grapefruit daily as part of a 12-week weight-loss plan can help you shed an extra 1.4kg! Coconut Milk: Yes, coconut milk is fattening but its fats are essential for our metabolism; so much so, that after one meal which has coconut milk in it, your metabolic rate could increase by 5%. Celery: Your mind might have already wandered to a Bloody Mary, and you know what? That’s great! This vegetable is low in calories but super-high in fibre - meaning you’ll feel fuller for longer. The calcium you get from it will also help bind waste fats and cleanse your body from them. Black Pepper: The most common spice of all, and one of the most nutritious! Black pepper’s active chemical, piperine, gets your metabolism working faster and burning more calories according to the journal Nutrition Today. On top of that, it also helps relieve the symptoms of heartburn and indigestion. Exercise, and some of the above with natural sugars would surely lose weight? I know that since I stopped my physical work, I have put on weight, not a bad thing in my case, I have been skinny most of my life. But I am in an overweight situation now. Get the bike out and pedal. Thats what I'm doing, and I think it's working. Makes me feel better about myself anyway. It will certainly increase your stamina and breathing even if you don't lose weight. -- Regards. Bob Hobden. Posted to this Newsgroup from the W of London, UK |
