The best way to lose weight is to eat a healthy diet in the long term. On its pages, experts have revealed five simple dietary changes that can help you lose weight.
Choose whole grains. Change your habit of eating white flour products – start choosing whole grains instead, eat cereals instead of muffins, experts recommend.
“Whole grains are high in fiber, which keeps insulin levels stable and therefore keeps you full for longer. This means you’ll eat fewer calorie-dense snacks, which can make weight loss more difficult and even more likely to lead to weight gain,” nutritionists say.
Eat more colorful vegetables. Follow the principle: the brighter the vegetable product, the better for weight loss. As a change in your usual diet, add vegetables to breakfasts, lunches and dinners in the form of smoothies, salads, grilled, stewed.
“Vegetables contain important micronutrients (vitamins, minerals) and fiber, which are very beneficial for digestion and the immune system,” weight loss experts remind.
Focus on healthy fats and protein. Consuming protein and healthy fats (omega-3) helps maintain and build muscle. The more muscle tissue in the body, the more fat is burned at rest.
“Good fats help normalize hormone balance, which is important for protecting against weight gain. As for protein, the body has to use a lot of energy to digest it and break it down into individual amino acids, and this helps maintain slimness,” the experts shared.
Snack on nuts. Another important dietary change that helps you lose weight is to avoid unhealthy snacks. Instead, it's better to use nuts.
“Almonds, unsalted peanuts, or walnuts contain a large amount of healthy fats and proteins that slow down appetite and help you lose weight. Walnuts also provide the body with a large portion of omega-3,” the scientists note.
Drink more water. Experts advise: if you drink a glass of water several times during the day, the feeling of hunger is better controlled, and at the same time, the metabolism is stimulated.
