Intermittent fasting, which involves eating certain meals at different times during the day and fasting for others, is one of the most popular diet trends. It doesn’t specify what foods you should consume, but when they should be eaten. The goal is to eat less and increase your metabolism. This diet plan is not for everyone. Some people feel hungry during fasting and find it difficult to adhere to. Fortunately, that’s normal. It’s normal for some people to not like the diet. This simply means that they will need a different approach. Based on a question from a reader, Mira Calton CN and Jayson Calton PhD are our nutrition experts. Q: What food should I eat? I don’t like intermittent fasting. What foods can I still eat to help me lose weight? A: Eggs! They are a breakfast staple for good reasons. They are low in calories and have six grams of protein. This helps curb your appetite and keeps you fuller for longer than other carb-based breakfast foods like muffins and cereals. They’re also rich in healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals that can help you burn belly fat. A study published in the International Journal of Obesity showed that people who ate eggs for breakfast had a 61% lower BMI than those who didn’t. Research published in the Nutrition journal showed that overweight women who eat breakfast with eggs in the morning eat less. This helped them to eat fewer calories and help them reach their weight loss goals. Bonus: Egg yolks contain high levels of vitamin D and choline, which can boost metabolism. Place FIRST before all else!
