Dinner
It should be the lightest meal of the day. Choose from the following options:
a. Bowl of soup Rasam/palak/dudhi
b. Bowl of sprouts salad:
Flaxseed (alsi)
Called alsi in Hindi, the seed comes out with an outer coating which makes you feel fuller
than normal and hence curbs your tendency to eat. Its also a rich source of omega-3 fatty
acids which is good for your heart. Simply crush flaxseeds and add to foods like soups,
cereals, oats, chapatti and since theyre naturally bland, they wont change the taste of your
dish.
Green Tea
Green tea has gained immense popularity as tool to facilitate weight loss and millions are
switching from coffee to green tea because of its high antioxidant capacity. Research also
suggests that it boosts metabolism, burns fat which makes it a perfect drink for people who
want to lose weight. Also, its not supposed to be drunk with milk or sugar which reduces
the calorie intake.
Cinnamon
The herb that makes things Christmasy, helps activate insulin receptiors and enzyme
systems involved in carbohydrate metabolism. This helps regulate your blood sugar levels,
increase metabolism and reduce bad cholesterol from the body. You can simply sprinkle
some on your breakfast cereals, coffee or tea for that added flavor!
Black Pepper
Hot things usually help you lose weight and black pepper is no different. The piperine in it
acts as a digestive while it also helps prevent the formation of fat. Also, spicy food items
tend to people more active which will help with weight loss. The best thing is that pepper
can be added to almost anything youre eating from salads to meats.
Turmeric/Haldi
Recently studies have shown the immense health benefits of turmeric and scientists are
even researching methods to see if it can be used to fight cancer so no wonder it helps in
weight loss as well. Studies have shown that it helps metabolise fat and also reduces the risk
of developing diabetes. The great thing about turmeric is that its already part of our eating
habits and can be added to veggies, rice, curries, dals, etc.
Ginger
Another herb which can help because of its digestive properties is ginger which is
thermogenic. This basically means that it helps raise the bodys temperature by burning fat
which makes it perfect for people looking to lose weight. Researchers also found that it has
a satiating effect which means you tend to eat less and this further helps the cause. Ginger
can be eaten either by powdering and mixing with rice dishes or veggies or by mixing a
tablespoon of it with water.
