Let's Do Lunch Community

Prevention Magazine and Fox News Medical Contributor Dr. Mark Segal have just backed-up what Let's Do Lunch...Eating Until Full to Lose Weight is all about! When we eat more-to-the-green-side bananas, all the different beans, corn, wild rice, brown rice and barley - these foods go directly to the colon before digesting and therefore don't turn into fat...and they also produce:

1. a fatty acid that eats away at your fat cells

2. a hormone that tells your brain you are not hungry

Also Fox News Dietitian Contributor Tanya Zuckerbrot basically says:

1. lean red meat, chicken, turkey and fish (high protein) protect against muscle loss

2. omega 3s in cold-water fish like salmon, tuna and sardines increase the hormone leptin, which helps the metabolism burn fat

3. women who eat a high-fiber cereal are 30% less likely to be overweight

4. citrus fruits like oranges, lemons and limes (vitamin C) help the metabolism burn fat 39% easier during activity

5. peppers (red, green, yellow) contain a chemical compound called capsacin which increases metabolism by 25% for up to 3 hours after a meal

6. green tea helps metabolism

God bless,
