Our 10 best nutrition tips. Period.

The diet's advice is very similar to fashion. Trends are compensating sneakers, crotch pants, these skirts that are short and long in the back - and a year or two later, they seem desperately obsolete.


But the true style always looks intelligent; You will never see a photo of Pharrell Williams wearing Crocs or Victoria Beckham in a meat dress. Here to eat this, not that !, We see the same thing when it comes toweightloss: Those remaining thin do not follow diets or nutrition. They follow food strategies from common sense that prevent them from having life.

Abandon gluten, throw back knocks of apple cider vinegar, all juices, try them if you think you think. But when both diet fadadads accumulate dust at the back of your metaphorical closet, simple, intelligent and sensitive approaches will be there as a pair of favorite jeans or a perfect black dress of great staples guaranteed Do not go out style. (As an extra bonus, add a daily cup to your green tea routine, that is, here's all you need to know aboutGreen tea and weight loss.)

1

Hide your weakness.

If you see it, you will eat it. If you do not see it, you will always eat it - but not so much. This is a study on the Office of Google New York, nicknamed "M & M Project". Office managers have discovered that placing chocolate candies in opaque containers, as opposed to canes, and giving healthier snacks such as nuts and larger figs from storage space, m & m consumption. 3.1 million calories in just seven weeks. A similar study published in theJournal of Marketing found that people are more likely to eat small treats from transparent parcels than opaque. Out of sight, out of mind, mouth.

2

Use the rule of 1 out of 10.

For each 10 grams of carbohydrates listed on the label, look for at least one gram of fiber. Why 10: 1? It is the ratio of carbohydrates to fiber in a real unprocessed total grain. The recommendation comes from a study published in the newspaperNutrition of public health who has evaluated hundreds of grain products; Foods that reached the ratio of 10: 1 had less sugar, sodium and trans fat than those who do not have it.

3

Boost flavor to cut calories.

Have you ever noticed how everything in a McDonald's - hamburgers, fries, shakes feel exactly the same thing? This similarity of perfume is actually a tactic that can inspire you to consume more calories. (But if you arereally Jonesing for a Burger Fix, we also have suggestions onWhat to eat in McDonald's.) A study in the newspaperFlavor found that the less distinctive scent of a particular food, the more you will eat. The addition of herbs and mixtures of spices without sodium is an easy way to take advantage of the sensory illusion that you give yourself to something rich, without adding fat or calories to your plate. In addition, a recent behavior study that has taught adults to immerse meals with herbs instead of salt resulted in a decrease in sodium consumption of nearly 1000 mg per day (it's more salt than you will find. In 5 bags of Doritos!).

4

Cold pasta to melt fat.

You can earn fewer weight of a pasta portion simply by putting it in the refrigerator. The temperature drop changes the nature of the noodles in something called "resistant starch", which means that your body must work stronger to digest it. Cold pasta are closer to the structure of natural resistant starches such as lentils, peas, beans and oatmeal, which pass through the intact inner intestine and are digested in the big intestine, where they get a bit raw from there. A study in the newspaperNutrition and Metabolism I found that the addition of meal-resistant starch can also promote the oxidation of fat. It is enough to say that colder noodles = warmer you. But you have to eat it cold: once you have again heated the pasta, you destroy the resistant starch.

5

Disable the lights to become lighter.

A study of fast food restaurants published in the Psychological Reports Review revealed that guests who have had dinner in a relaxed environment with mitigated lights and a fluffy music eaten 175 fewer calories per meal only if they were in a restaurant environment more typical. This may not look like a spectacular economy, but cut 175 dinner calories each night could save you more than 18 pounds in one year!

6

Eat, do not drink, your fruit.

The juice can be rabies, but like a certain Mr. Simpson, some juices can do more harm than good-including good. Researchers at Harvard School of Public Health have found that people who consumed one or more portions of fruit juice every day increased their risk of developing type 2 to 21% diabetes. Conversely, those who have eaten at least two portions every week of some whole fruit - especially blueberries, grapes and apples have reduced their risk of type 2 diabetes of 23%.

7

Eat before eating.

Eating an aperitif of a broth soup or even an apple can reduce the total calorie consumption during the meal up to 20%, according to a series of "volumetric" studies at Penn State. Consider this, according to theAMERICAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION JOURNALThe average restaurant meal contains 1,128 calories. A 20% saving, once a day, is enough to help you lose more than 23 pounds a year.

8

Choose paper, not plastic.

Here's a simple way to improve the health of your basket: A series of experiences at Cornell University examined the effects of the method of payment on the choice of food. When buyers have used credit cards, they bought more unhealthy "Viceas" foods than with "VIRTUE" foods. The researchers suggest that you are less likely to impulsively buy junk food if it means separating from a hundred dollar bill than to slip from plastic.

9

Sprinkle calories.

We were told to drink 8 glasses of water a day, but why disturb? Well, and if staying hydrated could harm your body? According to a study in theJournal of clinical endocrinology and metabolismAfter drinking about 17 ounces of water (about 2 tall glasses), the metabolic rates of participants increased by 30%. The researchers believe that the increase in water supply of 1.5 liter per day (about 6 cups) burn 17,400 additional calories during the year - a weight loss of about five pounds!

10

Remember to lose weight.

A recent study published online inPractice of health promotion I found that people who received weekly text reminders of their daily "caloric budget" and their motivation emails have gone healthier meals and snack choices. A simple hack to help you help you: configure reminders on your smartphone, so when 6.M. Rolling around is:You do 1200 calories - a day of a day so good! And at lunch time:Salad for the six pack, baby!
