APPETITE SUPPRESSING.

FLAXSEEDS

Raw flaxseeds are effective in controlling the appetite. In addition to the omega- 3, one ounce of flaxseeds provides the added benefit of 8 grams of fibre. The more fibre you eat at any meal or snack, the slower the rise in your blood sugar, helping to keep the hunger hormones at bay.

SOUP

Soup is one of the best kept secrets to appetite control and weight loss.

Research shows that men and women consuming two servings of low- calorie soup daily lost 50 per cent more weight than those consuming the same number of calories from snack foods. The secret is the combination of high water and low calories in soup.

DRINK GREEN

The best green drinks are made with a mixture of high- cholorophyll, detoxifying organic grasses like wheatgrass and vegetables like spinach. Typically, these drinks should be low in calories and sugar and loaded with enzymes and phytonutrients.

They can take the edge off your appetite effectively.

if you are having a hard time losing weight. Try nibbling on these when you want to cut calories and still feel full.

APPLES

AN APPLE a day keeps cravings at bay. High- fiber foods like apples generally require more chewing, giving your body extra time to register the fact that you're no longer hungry.

A study found that women who ate three small apples a day lost more weight than those who didn't eat any.

PINE NUTS

Pine nuts contain the highest amount of protein of any nut or seed. They contain pinolenic acid, a naturally occurring polyunsaturated fat that actually stimulates two powerful hunger suppressing hormones. Both hormones play a major role in signaling to the brain that you're no longer hungry.
