You've probably heard the tip that if you're interested in losing weight, it's a good idea to eat slowly and chew your food at least 15-20 times before swallowing. Doing so allows your brain and body to actually sense that it's full, instead of cramming a bunch of food down your throat only to find out 30 mins later that you're WAY stuffed.
And for that reason (and a few others), I'm picking cherries as my #1 fruit for weight loss.
With cherries, you can't just pop 30 in your mouth in two mins like you could, and probably often do, with grapes or blueberries. Instead, the pits force you to eat them slowly, allowing your satiation sensors to chime in a prevent you from over-indulging.
So that's reason #1 – built in portion control.
Reason #2, and it's a BIG one, is that cherries have the LOWEST glycemic index of all fruits, and one of the lowest glycemic indexes of any carbohydrate source—period.
Scoring at a ridiculously low 22, you can even snack on cherries in the evening without much detriment as their effect on insulin is minimal at best. Again, it's not late-night eating that's the problem, it's eating the wrong foods (those that cause a substantial rise in fat-loss halting insulin) in evening hours that is.
So next time you're in the mood for a sweet, satiating snack, reach for a small bowl of cherries and enjoy the goodness. My new favorite variety is Rainier cherries….Mmm mmm good :)
Now, before I go, what if I told you that a brand new, extremely simple metabolism-boosting strategy can shed inches off your waist and increase your rate of weightloss by nearly 300% in less time than it takes to brush your teeth each day?
Now, before you think I've fallen off my rocker, here are the facts: ONE HUNDRED research partcipants experienced those exact results, including 2 inches lost around the belly in the first two weeks, just by harnessing the power of this shockingly simple metabolism-booster each day... and you can absolutely do the same.
Even more, when you perform this simple 10-second trick daily, you'll increase your fat-burning metabolism during the day, and EVEN while you sleep... The end result is significant, visually noticable and measurable fat-burning results in as little as 2 short weeks.
