In the weight loss journey, many people seek harsh measures such as fasting, taking medicine or taking extreme detox. However, according to a nutritionist from the Mayo Clinic, just changing part of your diet, specifically adding oats, can activate the body's natural fat burning process.
Oatmeal is a whole grain, rich in beta-glucan soluble fiber, which helps slow digestion, creates a feeling of fullness for a long time and stabilizes blood sugar. When eaten in the morning or replaced with white rice during main meals, oats help reduce total calorie intake while still getting enough nutrients.
In addition, oats also have the ability to reduce bad cholesterol, increase metabolism and support digestion - factors that help the body burn fat more effectively. A study published in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition shows that people who eat oats for 7 days can lose 0.52kg depending on their physical condition and exercise.
The simplest way to use it is to cook oatmeal congee with vegetables, boiled eggs or chicken breast. Limit sugar, condensed milk or high-calorie toppings. You should drink plenty of water and combine light walking 2030 minutes a day to increase effectiveness.
