There are fruits that do not contain many calories, but are rich in fiber and various vitamins and minerals. The fruits are sweet, but they contain natural sugars that do not “stick” to the sides due to fiber. Also, fruits help to get the norm of vitamins and minerals, thereby saving the body from deficiencies.
According to ETNT, one such fruit is the banana. Bananas can help you lose weight if eaten in moderation (one a day is enough). This fruit has a lot of fiber, so it helps to fill you up. If you want to get the maximum benefit, then take a greenish banana: it has less starch and sugar.
Grapefruit. Scientists in their studies came to the conclusion that if you eat a little grapefruit shortly before the main meal, the body will process it more actively, spending more energy. Therefore, the person loses weight. It is good to combine grapefruit with protein, such as cottage cheese, or fiber – add to a green salad.
A pineapple. This tropical fruit is rich in enzymes that help with digestion. In particular, pineapple contains bromelain, which aids in the digestion of proteins. Improved digestion can also regulate appetite, which in turn promotes weight loss. In addition, pineapple has a lot of fiber – it is necessary to feel full for as long as possible. It goes well with yogurt and cottage cheese. You can also use it not fresh, but buy canned pineapple, the main thing is to choose one that does not contain sugar.
Avocado. One of the main advantages of avocado is that it contains the very healthy fats that our body needs so much. That is, the fruit is able to saturate, but it does not provoke weight gain. But avocado is better not to abuse. The volume per day depends on age, weight and health characteristics. If we are talking about an adult with a weight of about 70-80 kg, no more than half of the average fetus is acceptable. During pregnancy, the norm should be reduced to 2-3 pieces. It is better not to give avocados to children under three years old, and after this age, from 1-2 teaspoons of the pulp to a quarter of the fruit is acceptable.
Pear. This is an excellent source of healthy fiber. A medium-sized fruit has 6 grams (assuming you eat pears with the skin on), with most of it coming from insoluble fiber. By the way, you can eat pears not only raw. They are good to bake with cheese and nuts, add honey to them, cut them into salads and even into meat dishes.
Lemon. The best alternative to sweet lemonade for those who want to lose weight is water with lemon. Scientists have long found that a competent drinking regimen improves metabolism and helps the body burn fat more efficiently. The rate of getting rid of calories after a glass of water can increase by 30%. In addition, it contains ascorbic acid, which is necessary for the production of collagen – the main protein for the beauty and youthfulness of the skin. So if you want to forget about wrinkles – lean on water with lemon.
