In the weight loss world, fruits sometimes are tagged to be bad for weight loss because it has sugar. However, fruits contain many nutrients that are beneficial to your health and can also help keep you full while eating fewer calories.
In this article, we’ve put together 3 fruits that are ideal for your weight loss and here they are:
-
Strawberries
Strawberries are one of the best fruits for weight loss. You probably never knew that a cup of strawberries only has 50 calories and 7 grams of sugar, yet provides 3 grams of fiber. So not only do these fruits satisfy your sweet/sugar cravings, but they also boast a very impressive nutrient profile. You find out that chewing on a few pieces of strawberry can help keep you satiated for a longer period of time. This is because the fiber in fruit helps with satiety and also slows down the digestion and absorption of fructose, the fruit sugar. With all the vitamins, minerals, and anti-oxidants they provide, this fruit is a great food to incorporate into your diet.
-
Avocado
Avocados are simply one of the healthiest fruits ever given to us by nature. Not only is this food rich in protein, they are also very rich in fiber. This two components combined together is what makes this fruit superb for weight loss. Half of an avocado fruit can help keep you full for a longer period. It doesn’t just stop there.
Avocado also contains 20 grams of fats. Not just any fat, but the healthy kind of fat. The kind of fats that your heart needs. Healthy fats are not just limited to protecting the heart, but also helps to increase both the metabolism and testosterone levels. Testosterone is one of the main hormone responsible for fat loss for both men and women.
-
Grapefruit
Another great fruit for weight loss efficiency is grapefruits. Most people are not funded of these fruits though, mainly because they’re a bit sour and therefore don’t satisfy their sugar cravings. Hopefully, the following facts about grapefruits should help make sure you don’t fall under this group of people.
Grapefruits are high in water content which helps increase feelings of fullness while providing very few calories.
It also takes a lot of energy in order to digest grapefruit. This is mainly due to its high fiber content. While this does not mean someone can eat grapefruit along with anything else he or she pleases and lose weight, adding it to a well-balanced nutrition plan will certainly aid in fat loss.
Conclusion
The best fruits to eat for fat loss are the ones that will allow you to eat fewer calories than you burn. For example, although a banana is higher in sugar and calories than a handful of grapes, if eating a banana will make it less likely that you will raid the vending machine in search of a Snicker’s bar, it is a better choice.
