5 Tips To Reduce Energy Density And Increase The Nutrient Density Of Your Food Choices:
As I mentioned in our last article, nutrient density is key when aiming for healthy and sustainable fat loss.
Today we will go over 5 tips that will help you reduce energy density and increase the nutrient of your food choices:
Start your lunch and dinner with a fresh vegetable salad to help with satiety. Use the natural salad dressing.
Eat a piece of fruit before a meal and you’ll consume fewer calories overall during the meal.
To reduce cravings, or when you want something sweet, reach for fresh fruit like a handful of grapes or small oranges. Fruit contains both water and fiber and is low-energy-density, high-nutrient-density food that contains a variety of healthful nutrients including fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that promote health with 60- 80 calories per serving.
Choose less processed foods like brown rice instead of white rice, whole grain bread instead of white bread, whole-grain breakfast cereal instead of processed cereal.
Instead of purchasing yogurt that contains more sugar and calories, choose plain yogurt, and add your own fruit.
To sum up,
Making better decisions is all a matter of choice. Choose wisely.
