10 Foods that help you lose weight 3 – Best Weightloss Strategies

Continued from Page 2

8. Fish Oil

Fish Oil has got to be one of the greatest supplement inventions since creatine (even better actually). Fish oil has been shown to increase lean body mass, decrease cancer risk, improve your mind, help your joints and keep your eyes healthy. This should be part of everyone’s supplement routine along with Vitamin D. These two vitamins have countless research behind them and you’ll regret NOT taking them down the road.

9. Onions

Nutritionist Verne Varona says onions accelerate the breakdown of fats in your food. As a result, your body is more apt to excrete them than to store them in fat cells. It’s also worth noting that one large onion contains a meager 57 calories.

An apple a day keeps the dietitian away too!10. Apple

An apple a day keeps the doctor away, so goes the saying. But will it keep the dietitian away? It might! When it comes to fruit, eating it whole rather than drinking or eating it pureed as a sauce is a key to satiety – that feeling of fullness so important when trying to stick to a reduced-calorie eating plan. Results of a Pennsylvania State University study published in Appetite, found this to indeed be the case. Additionally, eating an apple at the beginning of lunch led to a 15 percent calorie drop at that meal. Now that’s something to take a bite out of!

Losing excess weight and maintaining good health should be a gradual and practical process that becomes a habit rather than a phase. Don’t worry if you have a “bad” day here and there, just fall back on your healthy eating habits. As Vincent Lombardi rightly put it: The good Lord gave you a body that can stand most anything. It’s your mind you have to convince.
