When it comes to weight loss, not all fruit is created equal.
We all know fruit is good for us. It is a natural source of sugar, fiber, and vitamins that give you energy and help your immune system. However, some authorities discourage fruit on weight loss diets because of its high fructose content. It is true, all fruit is not equal when you are trying to lose weight. Here are our recommendations for the fruit you should consume in your diet to keep you on track.
- Grapefruit - Grapefruit has narginen, which is actually a fat-burning ingredient. Ivan Blasquez, with BodyBuilding.com, did his research and found that grapefruit also contains a relatively high amount of HMB, a metabolite of leucine that has been shown to promote muscle mass accretion.
- Pear - Pears are not only delicious, but they are also low in calories and low on the glycemic index. The glycemic index is basically a rating of how different carbohydrates affect your blood sugar. You don't want to spike your blood sugar because that will cause insulin to store fat. For instance, white bread would be around a 70. The high range is between 70 and 100. Low glycemic carbs are below 50. Pears are around 36. So you get the sweetness without the negative consequences.
- Green Apple - Apples are also around 36 on the glycemic index and are a great source of fiber. If you don't know, fiber helps keep your "regular" and as you age you need more and more of it. Apples have about 5g of fiber per serving and they taste much better than some fiber products out there.
- Bananas - Bananas are another good source of fiber, containing about 4g per serving. Bananas catch a lot of heat for the high sugar content, but in reality they only have about 25-27g of sugar and a glycemic index of about 51. Bananas are one of the best sources of potassium as well. We recommend eating them with breakfast because it's a great way to start the day.
- Berries - Blueberries, raspberries,strawberries, blackberries. All these delectable little fruits are packed with antioxidants (which help fight signs of aging and free radicals) and the vitamins you will also find in the aforementioned fruits, Vitamins C, A, and B to be exact.
