Special Food to Make you Lose Weight

Here are the 3 new ways that I have found to kill your hunger and hence start losing weight. Try these out and let me know your thoughts on these.

1. More oats please. Oats have special kind of filling fiber compound known as beta glucan which promotes your body to release something called CCK (you do not need to know more about this chemical). CCK is a hunger suppressing hormone. So eat your oats. Any from would do apart from the creamy ones.
2. Beans are the perfect food. I have said it in the past. B for beans and B for best food item available (ok, I admit, that did not rhyme at all).Beans have a special kind of fiber protein balance which makes you feel full for longer. Plus, a Spanish study has found out that it also increases your metabolism.
3. Eggs are good. Yes they are good. They are super rich in protein.It is best that you eat their whites only but as a whole even, they are very very healthy. It has been shown in a recent research done in UK that eggs help you control your hunger for up to 36 hours. Which is a lot.

Food to Kill your Hunger

Today I am going to list 3 foods you least likely thought would help you lose weight. I might have mentioned these before but I am going to give you recently found benefits of eating these foods. So here we go.

1. Potatoes, is one food item that has got a lot of bad name for making people fat. But new research has found out that it is not the case. Obviously, it is the case when you keep on eating french fries. The oil in those can make you fat in no time. The potatoes do not make you fat. White or sweet, potatoes have this special kind of starch that can make you feel full for longer and people who eat potatoes are likely to eat 320 calories less per day than people who don’t.
2. Seafood. Another class of food items about which people do not have sufficient knowledge. Not all seafood contains high amounts of bad cholesterol. In fact, fish has essential omega 3 fats which keep you full for way way longer than traditional sources of meat. Also fish eaters compared with beef eaters suffer far less hunger. They also end up eating 72 calories less in their next meal, a research has found out.
3. Nuts. Time for you to go a little nuts I say to people who want to know more about diet foods. The wonderful combination of fiber, protein and fats in nuts give you satiety and make you eat less throughout the day. Apart from that, nuts also increase your metabolism by 10 percent.

3 More 100 Calorie Snacks You Can Feel Good About

More ways you can keep fit, lose weight and keep hunger at bay. Here are 3 more snacks which are under low calories and more than that, are packed full with nutrients that your body desperately needs every single day of your life.

1. Ever heard of square oats. Of course you have, but I bet these are not a regular in your daily diet. People who love to have cereal in their breakfast, should definitely try this one out and leave out the milk when they are on a diet. What you do is really simple. First, buy dry square oats cereal. Put 1/3 cup in baggies and then take them with you in office or your workplace wherever it may be. The best part is that these are super low calorie food and are super low in saturated fat. It is almost zero percent. You can do this with any whole grain cereal. Just be sure to stay away from sweetened varieties.
2. Don’t associate grapes with just wine. These are filled with water and that means, a whole cup of grapes has only 62 calories. Is it not super low or what. Since they are full of water, they give you the feeling of being full and also keep your body hydrated. Grapes are also rich in vitamin k and manganese. They also have some fiber if the previous qualities were not enough. They are convenient to use as you can eat grapes raw fresh or frozen. Your choice.
3. Pinwheel of Salmon. For a creative snack of under 60 calories. Spread 1 tablespoon on low fat cream cheese onto a slice of smoked salmon (some may call it a lox). Roll it up and you have yourself a snack high in protein and in heart healthy omega 3 fatty acids. It is a bit high in sodium (as that is used to cure salmon). If you can bare with a little less cream cheese than you can have 2 of these under 100 calories.
