Everyone who faces the issue of weight loss is looking for a "magic pill" to make the extra weight melt away before their eyes. And these "pills" really exist!

Today, together with nutritionist Maria Kapralova, we will talk about natural fat-burning products.

These are the products that require more energy and effort than usual for the body to digest. Of course, losing weight is not only about cutting down on the daily caloric intake of your diet, but also about choosing the right products.

What does every person's diet consist of?

KBZhU - calories, proteins, fats and carbohydrates. With calories, everything is quite simple:

  • 1 g protein = 4 kcal;
  • 1 g fat = 9 kcal;
  • 1 g of carbohydrates = 4 kcal.

These are accepted standards in dietetics all over the world. For example, let's take chicken breast fillet, where we see in the composition for 100 g - 23.6 g of protein, 1.9 g of fat and 0.4 g of carbohydrates, the rest is water, vitamins and other things that have no caloric value. We calculate proteins 23.6 × 4 = 94.4 kcal, fats 1.9 × 9 = 17.1 and carbohydrates 0.4 × 4 = 1.6 kcal. In total, we get the caloric content of 100 grams of chicken fillet - 113.1 kcal. Absolutely everything is calculated according to this principle.

The beauty of natural fat-burning products is that they can have the same or lower caloric content than the food products we are used to. Let's start analyzing the BJU.

Squirrels

Good quality protein is the key to the health of the entire body, since protein is the building material of almost every cell of the human body.

If the goal is not just to lose weight, but also to improve the quality of skin, hair, nails and joints, then let's learn how to choose good protein:

  • turkey, chicken fillet;
  • eggs;
  • salmon;
  • legumes;
  • fish roe;
  • Greek yogurt;
  • fermented milk products.

Fats

It would seem that you want to lose weight, so you need to remove fats from your diet as much as possible, but there are necessary and essential fats for the body, and there are useless trans fats.

Good fats include:

  • All unrefined vegetable oils are directly squeezed or cold-pressed.
  • Nuts, seeds - dried, never fried.
  • Avocado.
  • Ghee oil.
  • Bacon, lard.
  • Chocolate containing 75% cocoa.

Carbohydrates

Here, too, it is important to distinguish between healthy carbohydrates and harmful and simple ones. Simple carbohydrates include sweets, sugar, baked goods made from premium wheat flour, and complex carbohydrates include:

  • whole grain flour and products made from it;
  • legumes (yes, they are both proteins and carbohydrates);
  • oat flakes "Hercules";
  • buckwheat;
  • brown rice.

Fiber

These are also low-calorie carbohydrates, sometimes called negative calorie foods. Fiber provides long-lasting satiety and helps prevent overeating, so it is vital to include the following foods in your diet:

  • Grapefruit and lemon.
  • Broccoli.
  • Brussels sprouts.
  • Any greens.
  • The carrots are fresh.
  • Cucumbers.
  • Green peas.
  • White cabbage.
  • Zucchini and other fresh vegetables.

You should be careful with fruits and berries during the period of weight loss, as they contain a lot of sugar, and these are fast carbohydrates and extra calories. The acceptable norm is up to 150-200 grams of fruits or berries per day.

With such a list of products, which is given in the article, you can make yourself a chic diet, rich in all the necessary components for health and beauty. Lose weight deliciously and with pleasure!
