Dieting for weight loss, which is believed to be a weight loss method that many MM do not want to adopt, is both laborious and difficult to persist with, and is also prone to rebound. Today, the editor will tell you: don't worry anymore, the latest research finds that eight foods can help you lose weight healthily without dieting.
Experiment 1: Eat eggs for breakfast
Divided the experiment into two groups, Group A eating two eggs, two slices of white toast, and low-calorie fruit for breakfast every day, and Group B eating a bagel, a spoonful of butter, and a serving of non-fat yogurt. After eight weeks, Group A lost an average of about 2.7 kilograms, 1.5 kilograms more than Group B, and the waist circumference was also 83% less than that of Group B. The researchers have not truly understood the reason, but they found that eating eggs for breakfast, compared to eating bagels, produces fewer calories in the following 24 hours.
Is this true? Professor Donald of the Department of Nutrition at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign K. Layman said: 'Most people eat 60% of their daily protein after 6 p.m., which is incorrect. These proteins should be eaten earlier to reduce the desire for snacks.' He suggested eating at least 30 grams of protein at breakfast, and this is a very good time to eat eggs.
Experiment 2: Consume more protein, chicken, beans, and fish
Nutrition Journal Journal of Nutrition divided the experiment into two groups, Group A absorbing 120 grams of protein and exercising normally every day, and Group B absorbing the same amount of calories from high carbohydrates and exercising normally. After four months, Group A lost an average of about 9.7 kilograms, 2.9 kilograms more than Group B; and the weight loss effect in the abdominal waist circumference of Group A was significantly greater than that of Group B.
Is this true? Nutritionist Joy Joy Bauer said: 'Compared to carbohydrate and fat foods, the body uses more energy to digest protein,' so more calories are consumed. On the other hand, because the body takes longer to digest protein, the body has a longer sense of satiety.'Journal Journal) researcher also found that protein may reduce the secretion of a hormone that makes you want to eat. That is to say, eating more protein foods can reduce hunger and reduce the desire to eat.
Experiment 3: A Bowl of Soup Before the Meal
State University (Pennsylvania State University) study pointed out that a bowl of soup before meals can control your appetite. They divided the experiment into two groups, Group A drank a bowl of soup containing chicken, cauliflower, potatoes, and carrots before the meal, and Group B drank a bowl and a half of the same soup. The results showed that Group B absorbed 20% fewer calories than Group A in the evening meal.
Is this true? This experiment is actually very easy to understand, it is to use low-calorie soups to fill your stomach first, and the subsequent eating will be less than when you are hungry. However, the researcher humorously said that since the vegetable soup was replaced with cauliflower and cheese soup, no one was willing to participate in the experiment. This means that even if it is soup before the meal, drinking a lot of calories without restraint is ineffective.
Experiment 4: Weight Loss Fruits, Grapefruits and Apples
Research Center at Laval Hospital of Laval University in In Quebec) found that before each meal, eating half a grapefruit or 240ml of grapefruit juice, on average, can reduce 1.5 kilograms after three months, and drinking juice can reduce 1.4 kilograms on average; if you eat an apple before the meal, you can absorb 187 fewer calories.
Is this true? Some people believe that when losing weight, one should avoid eating too many fruits because the sugar content in fruits is actually higher than we imagine. However, this study found that people who eat more fruits (the whole fruit, not juice), compared to those who eat very little or none at all, gain less weight. Because grapefruits and apples contain a lot of water and fiber, they can make you feel full without adding many calories.
Experiment 5: A Glass of Wine Every Day
Brigham and Women's A hospital study found that drinking a glass of wine every day, in addition to being good for the heart, can also help women of normal weight maintain their figure. According to a long-term follow-up of 12 years, women who drink a glass of wine every day, on average, gain 1.5 kilograms, while women who do not drink gain 3.6 kilograms.
Is this true? Scientific research believes that wine is indeed good for health because the liver breaks down alcohol and provides extra energy to the heart. If the theory holds, drinking a glass of 120-calorie wine will burn most of the calories and not be absorbed. But beer, spirits... are not included, and please do not use this as an excuse for excessive drinking, as excessive drinking will not make you thinner and may even affect your health.
Experiment 6: Breakfast Cereal as a Substitute for Late-Night Snacks
Wayne State University in Detroit University) conducted an experiment to test a group of people who love to eat late-night snacks, asking them to eat a bowl of unsweetened low-fat milk + cereal 90 minutes after dinner, and after a month, they lost an average of about 0.9 kilograms, 0.2 kilograms more than those who normally eat late-night snacks.
Is this true? You can eat some nuts and grains at night, but not a plate of nut chocolate cake. Studies also show that eating a bowl of high-fiber cereal in the morning can also effectively suppress appetite. Nutritionists most recommend Wheaties and Kashi Go Lean breakfast cereal, and suggest that it can be eaten at any time, as a substitute for regular snacks.
Experiment 7: Good Fats, Avocado and Olive Oil
State University of New York at Buffalo) Buffalo) found that fats, like proteins, can increase satiety, and pleasant satiety will suggest that we should put down the chopsticks. But fats also come in good and bad, and consuming good fats every day, such as a tablespoon of olive oil (14 grams), a quarter cup of almonds (18 grams), or half an avocado (15 grams), can meet the daily fat needs, which is not only natural but also beneficial to health.
Is this true? Assistant Professor of Nutrition Christine L. Pelkman said: 'Fats can stabilize blood sugar, slow down the decomposition process of carbohydrates in the blood, and at the same time, reduce appetite and overeating caused by mood fluctuations.'
Experiment 8: Rich High-Fiber Foods
According to the health journal Nutrition Review analyzed more than 100 cases and found that we know that eating more fiber-rich foods is good for health, but we don't know that such foods can also help with weight loss, even being able to lose an average of about 1.8 kilograms in 4 months. Tufts Medical Center (Tufts Medical Center) Director of Clinical Nutrition Miriam E. Nelson said: 'We should consume 20-30 grams of fiber a day, but most people only absorb half of it.'
Is this true? Nutritionist Edward Saltzman believes that eating high-fiber foods can unconsciously reduce the intake of more food and help the digestive system detoxify. High-fiber foods recognized by nutritionists include whole wheat bread, whole wheat pasta, cereal flakes, brown rice, and fruits with skin.
