None of this , I mean to eat healthy food and real good health to nourish your body and soul , fire up your metabolism and turn your body into a temple of wellbeing. OM ...
Let's start with four food groups / foods that should be included as soon as possible in your daily diet so that you can start shedding pounds, feeling excited and get healthy .
Whole grains : High fiber foods have the body longer to digest , which causes a slow release of calories. Calories slow food allows your body to burn quickly rather than storing it as fat .
Instead of eating pasta , bread and cereals refined white flour , whole choose options that provide complex carbohydrates and fiber needed to boost your metabolism. Go with bran flakes instead of a bagel , whole wheat bread over white bread and whole grain pasta . When buying whole wheat products , look for labels that say " 100 % whole wheat " or " 100 % whole grain " , and do not settle for anything less than 100 %.
Protein and Dairy: Give your metabolism a boost with protein-rich foods. Foods rich in protein are also your body work harder to digest i burn more calories. Meat, poultry and fish are excellent sources of protein .
Be sure to choose lean meats like chicken , turkey , lamb and game meats { buffalo, deer , elk } . Salmon , tuna and other oily fish are rich in omega- 3 fatty acids , which increases your metabolism and the rate at which you burn fat . The calcium found in milk and other dairy products also work to boost your metabolism and keep your insulin levels low . Good sources of protein for vegans / vegetarians include beans, nuts , seeds, chia seeds, tofu, tempeh , eggs and Greek yogurt.
Fruits: All fruits are healthy, but these fruits are rich in vitamin C are powerful when it comes to burning fat . Vitamin C helps to dilute the fat and cholesterol. Some of the best include citrus fruits like oranges , grapefruits , lemons and limes. Personally, I can add fresh lemon juice to all my drinks based on hot and cold water , which gives them a special flavor and is good to know that lemon juice is stable burn fat in my body. Take this fat - fat! Fiber-rich fruits are fat burners , again because your body has to work hard to digest, burn calories in the process. These fruits are apples , raspberries and pears.
Vegetables: Vegetables, like fruits, are low in fat and contain good amounts of vitamins and minerals. All green vegetables - yellow - orange are rich in calcium , magnesium , potassium, iron , beta - carotene, vitamin B complex , vitamin C , vitamin A and vitamin K. When it comes to burning fat , choose vegetables that are low in calories and filling at the same time .
Examples include white and sweet potatoes { arguable starches , vegetables but I } , squash and pumpkins , broccoli , cabbage, asparagus, beans , mushrooms and cauliflower. With fall approaching , a delicious way to get your fill of abundant vegetables like sweet potatoes , carrots , fennel and parsnips is to chop , mix olive oil , salt and pepper , garlic cloves , whole onions into quarters and perfection caramelized roasted . Whenever possible, buy your products market their freshest local farmer, local produce and is therefore healthier.
Now, my challenge to you is to go out and purchase a minimum of two members from each of the four mentioned above and incorporate them into your daily diet groups. If you are already enjoying these foods on a regular cry of joy for you . And do not forget to share your comments, questions and experiences on the Facebook pages and twitter Lifestyle scheme . It has been proven time and again that having support is essential on the road to weight loss and wellness, remember that you do not travel alone on this path . I call Shotgun !
Do you eat less, but still tight clothes ? The scale does not move, even if you work more ? You feel like you 're always on a diet , but never you lose weight ?
