Weight loss alert: Seven food combinations to burn fat, beat bloating and boost metabolism
Weight loss is not an easy process, but one that can be achieved by being consistent. Dietitian Vidhi Chawla says that in order to lose weight successfully, one has to exercise and eat proper food every day.
“There are certain food combinations that can help you burn fat, beat bloating and boost metabolism. Do not skip your breakfast; it may cause you to not consume adequate amounts of fibre and nutrients. It can also increase bouts of acidity,” she advises.
The dietitian lists some food combinations that may work magic to lose weight. Read on.
1. Egg and bell pepper: Eggs are a powerful superfood on their own, but when combined with bell pepper — another fat-burning ingredient — it can help you lose weight quickly. Eggs are rich in vitamins, antioxidants, and healthy fats, as well as choline, a nutrient that boosts metabolism. Bell peppers, on the other hand, are rich in vitamin C. Eating peppers can help you burn stored fat and convert carbs into fuel, keeping you energised all day. By adding bell peppers into your eggs, you can significantly accelerate weight loss.
2. Carrots and tahini: Carrots contain about 10 per cent of carbs, are made up of starch, simple sugars and fibre. They also have a low glycemic index and are rich in vitamin A in the beta carotene form, vitamin K, B-vitamins, and potassium. Tahini, also known as sesame butter, is high in calcium and can help you lose weight by reducing your appetite
