To boost your metabolism and thus lose weight and stay healthy, include foods rich in protein, fiber and antioxidants in your diet.

One of these dishes is cottage cheese with pineapple: you can safely eat it on a diet when you want something sweet.

To prepare it, you should choose non-grain cottage cheese with a low percentage of fat.

The composition of this cottage cheese allows us to consider it an excellent product for improving metabolism.

Firstly, it contains a lot of protein – and as you know, protein requires more energy to digest than carbohydrates or fats, so its consumption speeds up metabolism and provides a feeling of satiety throughout the day.

Secondly, this product is low in calories due to the small amount of fats and carbohydrates in its composition.

And thirdly, cottage cheese contains calcium, which, according to a number of studies, improves metabolism and promotes weight loss.

For the filling, use fresh (not canned) pineapple, which contains vitamin C and the enzyme bromelain. The latter, in addition to its anti-inflammatory properties, also promotes the absorption of nutrients and improves metabolic functions.
