Here
are 5 must-have foods to aid weight loss:
1.
Leafy Greens
There
are a number of plants that fall under this category that all work
the same way to help you lose weight. The best are spinach, kale,
swiss chard, and collards. The first way they help you lose weight is
by providing you with a number of vitamins, minerals, and
antioxidants. These work together to make sure your body is working
the way it should.
The
other way that these help you lose weight is because they are high in
fiber. Fiber keeps your digestive system working the way it’s
supposed to which helps you lose weight. It also makes you feel full
for longer, which keeps you from eating too many snacks in between
meals and can prevent you from eating too much as your next meal.
2.
Whole Eggs
Contrary
to what was believed for a while, the yolks of eggs are beneficial to
people that want to lose weight. Recent studies have proven that
whole eggs don’t increase cholesterol or increase your risk of
heart attack. In fact, eating eggs will help you lose weight and are
a vital part of low-carb diets since they are low in carbs but high
in healthy fats and protein.
3.
Cruciferous Vegetables
This
family of vegetables include cabbage, broccoli, brussels sprouts, and
cauliflower. Like leafy greens, they are high in fiber but low in
carbs. They also contain surprisingly high amounts of protein
compared to other vegetables, making them an excellent choice for
people who want to lose weight. Additionally, they have a number of
vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
4.
Salmon
Salmon,
along with other oily fish like trout, mackerel, herring, and
sardines are excellent for losing weight. The first way they can help
you lose weight is by providing you with a good amount of healthy
fat. These will help keep you feeling full for longer, and also do a
lot for different processes in your body, especially your brain.
Another
way that salmon and other fatty fishes can help you lose weight is
the amount of iodine they contain. Many people don’t get enough
iodine from their diets which can lead to low thyroid function.
Because the thyroid controls metabolism, it’s important to keep it
running the way it’s supposed to if you’re going to lose weight.
5.
Chicken
Along
with other white and lean meats, chicken can help you lose weight.
This is because of the amount of protein it contains. Protein is a
vital part of weight loss because of how much a high-protein diet can
contribute to weight loss. In fact, studies have shown that by
getting between 25 and 30 percent of your calories from protein, you
can lose up to a pound a week just by reducing cravings.
3 Exercises to Ramp Up Your Metabolism
While
exercise alone rarely leads to significant weight loss, there are
some exercises that can help boost your metabolism and make your
weight loss diet more effective. By adding even one
metabolism-boosting exercise into your daily routine, you can burn
more calories even after the exercise so you can lose weight faster.
Here
are 3 exercises to ramp up your metabolism:
1.
Strength Training
Any
type of strength training will help to permanently boost your
metabolism. This is because muscles burn more calories while at rest
than fat or anything else in your body, so by building up your
muscles so that you have more of them, your body will begin burning
more calories throughout the day without you having to do any extra
work.
Try
to do just 20 minutes of strength training every day, focusing on a
different muscle group every day. You can use dumbbells, kettlebells,
or other workout equipment if you want, but there are also a number
of strength training exercises that use your body weight. That means
that you can get in strength training anywhere and without needing to
set up a home gym.
2.
Interval Training
You
can do interval training with nearly any type of aerobics or cardio
exercise. Interval training helps you burn more calories than cardio
exercise alone because most cardio exercises require doing them for a
long period of time before you’re able to burn a decent number of
calories. However, through interval training, you can burn more
calories in less time and get a metabolism boost afterwards.
Interval
training essentially involves pushing yourself as hard as you can for
short bursts of time, then taking a period of rest in between where
you’re still moving, but not pushing yourself. For example, if you
are running for exercise, you might sprint as hard and fast as you
can for 10 seconds, walk for 1 minute, and repeat that five times.
3.
Burpees
This
is an exercise that combines strength training and cardio, and is one
of the best exercises to boost metabolism. It not only gets your
heart rate going because it is a high intensity exercise, but it also
works out all of your major muscle groups. That means you’ll get a
temporary boost in metabolism from the cardio and a permanent boost
from working your muscles.
To
do a burpee, start from a standing position. Then, do a squat and end
with your hands on the ground in front of you. Jump backwards with
your feet into a push-up position and do a push-up. Jump your feet
forward again and then leap upwards, reaching your hands as high into
the air as you can. You can do these in sets or simply try to do as
many as possible in a short amount of time.
Keep
in mind that whatever exercises you do, they need to be in addition
to having a healthy diet so they will boost your metabolism and help
you lose weight. Most of the time, it takes hours of intense exercise
to make up for poor eating habits, so start with good eating habits
and then add these exercises to boost your metabolism.
