What would be an apt diet to shed weight?

Content Writer

If you thought the only way of losing weight http://kona.kontera.com/javascript/lib/imgs/grey_loader.gif

is not eating at all, think again. New research shows a number of foods – from beans to beef – that can help you fight hunger, increase your metabolism and ultimately, shed those extra kilos.

1. Eggs - Eggs are full of protein and help you feel fuller longer. They also prevent spikes in blood sugar, which can lead to food cravings.

2. Beans - Get back on the green diet. Eating beans increases Cholecystokinin, a digestive hormone and a natural appetite suppressant. There’s also evidence that beans keep blood sugar in check, so you can stay away from the hunger pangs longer.

3. Salad - Control your calorie intake by starting with a large salad sans the creamy mayonnaise dressing. A large serving of salad can keep you full and contains high levels of
vitamins C

and E, folic acid, lycopene, and carotenoids.

4. Soup - A cup of chicken soup is as good as eating a piece of chicken. Even the simplest soup satisfies hunger pangs because your brain perceives it as filling.

5. Pears - These contain pectin fiber which decreases blood-sugar levels, helping you avoid in between snacking.

6. Green tea - Antioxidants called catechins are what help speed metabolism and fat burning.
Green tea also boosts the metabolism and lowers bad LDL cholesterol.

7. Lean beef - Who says you got to keep totally off meat if you’re trying to shed weight? The amino acid leucine, which is abundant in meat and fish as well as in dairy products, can help you reduce while maintaining calorie-burning muscle.

8. Olive oil - Fight off that middle-age bulge with extra virgin olive oil. A monounsaturated fat, it’ll help you burn calories.

9. Cinnamon - Sprinkle it on oatmeal or whole-grain toast to help cure those mid-afternoon sugar slumps. Research has found that a little cinnamon can help control post-meal insulin
spikes, which make you feel hungry.

10. Nuts - Yes, nuts are fattening but research shows that people who snack on nuts tend to be slimmer than those who don’t. They help by revving up the metabolism. Plus certain nuts like walnuts contain omega-3 fatty acids which are essential for you.
