Weight Loss Tip: no.2522

Fiber from various plant sources can help you eat fewer calories.

Care to guess why?

Yup, soluble fiber in particular from whole grains, beans, nuts, seeds, and fruits and vegetables has the potential to reduce food intake because the nutrient forms a gel and expands in the stomach to not only take up space but also slow down how fast food travels through the digestive system, all of which helps promote the feeling of fullness so you can go longer between meals without eating or overeating at a subsequent feeding.
