Can eating fruits help with weight loss?
Fruits help with our weight loss goals because they contain healthy levels of fiber like pectin and psyllium.
And these durable fibers curb our appetites, making us eat less.
It seems sensible to add fruit to your diet, instead of unhealthier foods, to lose weight over the long term.
Consider adding these 13 fruits to your diet.
1. Pears
Pears have a high content of fiber, and they are rich in Vitamin C.
They lower your cholesterol and reduce type II diabetes and coronary heart diseases.
2. Blueberries
Blueberries are rich in antioxidants, valuable nutrients, and low in calories.
They increase your metabolic rate and combat cholesterol, hypertension, and insulin resistance.
A study by the University of Michigan showed eating blueberries reduced abdominal fat.
3. Apples
This heart-healthy fruit is low in calories but high in fiber.
A recent study revealed women who ate apples lost more fat than those who didn't.
And they reduce your risk of cancer, boost your immune system, and whiten your teeth.
Ever heard of 'an apple a day keeps the doctor away'? It sure seems accurate.
4. Watermelon
If you feel hungry on a weight loss diet, grab a piece of low-calorie watermelon.
A 100gm serving of watermelon contains just 30 calories. Eating it also hydrates because of its high water content.
It is also rich in the amino acid arginine, well-known for its fat-burning properties.
A study by The University of Kentucky showed watermelons reducing fat.
And another study in Spain showed it reduces muscle soreness.
5. Grapefruit
The grapefruit diet was a fad not too long ago.
Although consuming grapefruit the whole day is not advised, it can help you with weight loss.
Half a grapefruit contains only 37 calories and is high enough in fiber to make you feel full.
Eating half a grapefruit before your meals can reduce your cholesterol and belly fat.
6. Pomegranate
Pomegranate comes filled with antioxidants and potent health benefits.
A study by the University of Carolina found that it boosts metabolism.
And higher metabolism can increase your chances of weight loss.
7. Bananas
Bananas are a rich source of potassium and antioxidants, including vitamin B6.
Vitamin B6 lowers your risk of heart disease and helps improve your immune system.
A banana is the ideal weight-loss food because one contains just 105 calories and is high in fiber.
8. Oranges
Orange is one of the best fruits to include in your weight loss diet.
They work because they are high in fiber, and you burn more calories than you consume when eating one.
The fiber comes from pectin, cellulose, and lignin.
They are also a rich source of thiamin, vitamin C, and folate.
But a word of advice - do not include orange juice in your diet.
9. Peaches
Peaches pack high amounts of potassium, vitamins, fiber, and antioxidants and are low in calories.
