Use Food To Lose Weight?

Have you ever thought that food can help you lose weight? But how?

Exercise is just one way to burn calories. Your internal organs can also burn calories for you by digesting the food. This is the idea how to let the food boost your metabolism. A successful weight loss depends on a highly active metabolism. If you have a fast metabolism, you will burn calories more efficiently than those who have a low metabolic rate.  As a result, you will be able to manage your weight more effectively less change to gain weight. The truth is a fit body will keep you away from the doctors for many years to come.

Some foods have more complex structures that require more energy to break down them, so your body has to work hard to burn more calories in order to digest this type of foods. For example, a cup of juice is about 120 calories. 3 ounces of cooked lean chicken meat is about 130 calories. Juice is considered as simple sugar. It is mostly glucose, which is not only much easier for your digestive system to process, but also raises your blood sugar quickly. On the other hand, the lean chicken meat contains mostly protein, which is a macronutrient that has a more complicated structure. As a result, your body has to burn more calories to break down protein into amino acids in order to easily absorb the nutrients.

Now you have an idea about what I am talking about. Here is a list of the top food that will make your body work hard to burn more calories to digest them even you are at rest.

Weight loss can be easy, sometimes it just depends on what you eat.
