Americans spend over 30 billion dollars on weight losing supplements, most of which don't even work. A much healthier and economical alternative is eating the right foods. Next time you go shopping be sure to get these food products, and help shed off unnecessary fat. Eggs: Skip pancakes and bagels this morning and eat eggs instead. Eggs, which are rich in protein, will help you feel fuller longer. Research has shown that people who consume eggs are less likely to overeat, and at the same time their metabolism is increased. Other research has proven that eggs even help stabilize blood sugar levels and therefore insulin spikes are minimized. Grapefruit: Probably the most common weight-loss food grapefruit does indeed burn fat. Special phytochemicals in grapefruits reduce insulin levels, thereby helping your body metabolize calories instead of storing them in the form of fat. Have a grapefruit at-least twice a week if possible. Nuts: Nuts although high in fat (good unsaturated fats that are necessary for the body to produce hormones), are perfect for curbing appetite. A study from Purdue University found that when a group of 15 normal-weight people added about 500 calories worth of peanuts to their regular diet, they consumed less at subsequent meals. The metabolism of the participants also spiked up by 11%, therefore they burnt more calories doing nothing. Health bonus: Walnuts contain omega-3 fatty acids. Also pecans are good against heart diseases, as proven by research. High-fiber whole grain cereal: Studies show that eating a high fiber whole grain cereal, can help curb appetite. These whole grains contain complex carbs which take a long time for the body to breakdown, therefore the energy is supplied to the body for the whole day. Also high fiber diets help prevent constipation and ensure a healthy bowel. Red peppers: Add some heat to your meals, not only for the taste but also for the health benefits. These peppers contain capsaicin, which reduces appetite. Beans: You've probably never heard of cholecystokinin, but it's on your side in the battle for weight-loss. This digestive hormone, present in great quantities in beans, is a natural appetite suppressant. At the same time beans provide your body with protein, which not only boosts metabolism but also helps muscle gain. Olive Oil: Commonly found in salad dressings and marinades, olive oil (a monounsaturated oil) contains oleic acid, which is also a hunger killer. In a study in Australia, 12 post-menopausal women (ages 57 to 73) were given a breakfast cereal dressed either with a mixture of cream and skim milk or half an ounce of olive oil and skim milk. No wonder the women who ate the olive oillaced muesli boosted their metabolism.
