No matter how trite it may sound, but in order to lose weight, you must first of all eat right. There is a whole list of foods that should be included in the diet to accelerate weight loss.
Instructions
Step 1
Fish and seafood
Protein from seafood is better absorbed than meat protein, in addition, sea fish contains a large amount of iodine, and this element plays a very important role in weight loss. Fish is also a source of Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are important for the absorption of vitamin D and selenium.
Step 2
Milk products
Decreases the amount of digestible fats. Especially useful are whey - it contains protein, which accelerates lipid (fat) metabolism, and cottage cheese - its use reduces the risk of atherosclerosis, strengthens bones and the nervous system. As for the benefits for the figure, cottage cheese improves digestion, reduces swelling and has lipotropic properties, that is, it accelerates the metabolism of fats. 300 g of cottage cheese contains a daily share of protein.
Step 3
Legumes
They are a source of vegetable protein. The body has to "strain" to absorb such a product, so regular consumption of legumes in moderation increases energy expenditure.
Step 4
Grapefruit
They perfectly remove excess fluid from the body, get rid of toxins, promote weight loss and burn fat. There are few calories in grapefruit, but a large amount of vitamins and minerals, as well as essential oils and fiber. The grapefruit diet is one of the most popular with celebrities and for good reason. The substances contained in grapefruit help the flow of bile and promote the breakdown of fats. Eating only half a grapefruit per day, you can lose 1.5 kg in two and a half months.
Step 5
Kiwi
One kiwi fruit can almost cover the daily requirement of vitamin C. This fruit, in addition to being beneficial for the immune and circulatory systems, contains fiber that normalizes digestion, and eating two or three fruits daily helps to burn harmful fatty acids.
Step 6
Apples
A source of pectins and fiber. According to research, people who eat 1-3 apples daily lose weight faster than those who do not eat fruit.
Step 7
Tangerines
This is the name of the mandarin variety. Even one fruit a day is enough to stimulate the fat burning process.
Step 8
Celery
A vegetable that has a "minus calorie content", that is, the body spends more calories on its absorption and digestion than are contained in the celery itself (by the way, there are only 17 kcal per 100 g). However, the feeling of satiety from celery passes very quickly, so you can supplement the juicy vegetable slices with yogurt sauce - it will turn out delicious and healthy.
Step 9
Green tea
This drink contains biologically active compounds that can partially block the enzyme responsible for the breakdown of starch. In this way, the effect is achieved, as on a low-carb diet. The main thing is not to overuse green tea, the daily allowance is about 5 cups (750 ml). Regular consumption of the drink speeds up metabolism and helps to gradually lose weight.
Step 10
Pine nuts
Eating pine nuts stimulates the production of the "slimming hormone" - cholecystokine, which sends signals to the brain indicating satiety. In addition, these nuts contain vitamins E and P, which also have a positive effect on the process of losing weight. But it is important to take into account one nuance - since nuts are a high-calorie product, you should not consume them more than 30 g per day. Ideally, add them to a fresh vegetable salad.
Step 11
Ginger
The presence of a large amount of essential oils determines the "fat burning" properties of ginger - drinks with its addition help not only speed up metabolism, but also improve skin condition.
Step 12
Cinnamon
It tends to accumulate fats, so it is recommended to add it to diet drinks, for example, to kefir. It is worth considering that only freshly ground cinnamon from sticks has such properties.
