Good for You Foods Are Optimal for Weight Loss


Blog Image: Good for You Foods Are Optimal for Weight Loss

If you are serious about losing weight, it is time to decide what you should be eating as well as what you should not keep in your kitchen pantry. In other words, it is time to separate the good-for-you-foods that contain important nutrients from all others. If you are overweight, eating lean proteins actually boosts your metabolic rate. Since your body metabolizes slow carbohydrates like fresh berries at a much slower rate than baked bread, adding slow carbs to your menu plan is optimal for losing weight.

Hot Red Peppers Improve Fat Oxidation

A study published in Artery magazine suggests habanero peppers reduce cholesterol and high blood pressure by stimulating an insulin-like growth factor as well as increases the body's efficiency for weight loss. Hot red peppers contain different amounts of capsaicin, which is a colorless and odorless natural substance that packs the heat. In addition to causing a burning sensation in your mouth's mucous membranes, hot red peppers help burn calories and improve fat oxidation.

A study at Purdue University documented the effects of red pepper used in natural form compared to participants who took a capsule. The taste and sensory effect of the natural peppers sprinkled on the food maximized its impact on appetite, body temperature and calories burned. It only takes a small amount of capsaicin to reap the benefits of consuming minced hot peppers in your favorite foods. Add some to your favorite sandwich, salad, pot of vegetables, stew or chili to help manage your weight.

Eating Fatty Vegetables Can Curb Your Appetite

A new study shows that maintaining your weight loss for a year is the most strategic way to retrain your body into accepting your new, lower weight. Being innovative with herbs and spices can make your meals more exciting and help stabilize your metabolic rate. Creative food preparation that boosts metabolism and curbs hunger may be what your plan has been missing. Nutrition Journal reported participants who ate a fatty vegetable with lunch had less desire to snack or eat between meals. Fortunately, numerous additives, seasonings and whole foods can curb appetite and help your body shed weight and keep it off.
