We all come from a time of abuses, endless dinners, meals with family and friends and huge amounts of calories that in most cases have only been added to our but. So on this occasion we want to give some advice to get us without hunger, ingesting few calories and equip our body with the necessary nutrients.

The star food that will help us get good nutrition with a low calorie intake will be vegetables. There are some that will help us satiate much more than others. In addition, some vegetables will bring us many more nutrients than others. We are going to give five examples that we can go rotating in all the meals. What we recommend to lose weight in a healthy way is to ingest these vegetables along with some kind of low fat protein. In this way we will recover quickly from the excesses committed in recent weeks.

Broccoli

The broccoli is one of the star vegetables and a perfect bundle at the time of losing weight. It is very rich in vitamins A, B, K, C and E besides containing much omega-3. This makes it an important source of antioxidants. Along with this we will provide significant amounts of zinc. To this must be added its high contribution in fiber and its low caloric intake. In addition, it contains many purifying properties of the body that will help us eliminate toxins accumulated at this time of year.

Cauliflower

Cauliflower is another food of the same family as broccoli, and as the previous one is a perfect ally to satiate us of the best and healthiest possible form. It contains high amounts of fiber, and although it contains more calories than broccoli, it is still a low-calorie food. We will provide B vitamins, such as B5, B6 or B9, necessary for the proper functioning of the body. In addition it will contribute us calcium, iron or phosphorus among other minerals. Among its properties highlight its depurative and satiating power, which will do well when we are seeking to control the weight.

Peas

Peas are another food that will help us control appetite in the best way possible when we seek to decrease weight. It is a food that contains high amounts of fiber with a low calorie intake. To this must be added its high content in vitamin C, lecithin or calcium among others. They are a satiating food, in addition to helping us lower blood sugar levels. This gives this food the best accompaniment in any meal when what we are looking for is weight loss.

The green beans

Green beans are another perfect food to accompany any meal in times of weight loss. First of all it is necessary to keep in mind that they contain high amounts of fiber, water (around 80%) and very few calories. That’s why they are a perfect food to feed us while we lose weight. It should not be overlooked that they contain high amounts of vitamin A and C, which will help us to feed ourselves in the best possible way. As they contain zinc, iron, calcium and other minerals we can not overlook.

The spinach

Finally we are going to stop at the spinach. It is a vegetable that can be consumed raw or cooked and that will help us a lot when it comes to controlling the appetite in a healthy way. It is the vegetable that more vitamins and minerals gives us, quantities that in most cases we find neither in fruits nor in foods like meat or fish. Its high content of water and fiber, coupled with its low caloric intake make spinach a perfect food to include in any diet of slimming, because that same fiber is what makes them much satiating.
