There are foods we can eat and foods we can avoid to help us in our quest to find our ideal weight. Foods that are high in fat, such as fried foods, "junk foods", most processed foods, and many meats and dairy products, slow down the metabolism making it harder for us to control our weight. Remember, "fat goes to fat".
Lean proteins, fruits, vegetables, raw nuts and whole grains have the opposite effect, helping to increase the metabolic rate. Fruits, vegetables, beans, nuts and grains also have the added benefit of being high in fiber which helps us feel "full" sooner so we have a tendency to eat less. (http://www.a-better-way.com/)
Most of us need to eat far more fruits and vegetables and far fewer of the fatty fried foods. Common sense tells us to cut out sugar and fast fried foods, white rice, white flour, salt, and all processed foods. Eat more complex carbs that also offer protein such as tofu, lentils, baked potatoes, brown rice, sesame seeds, whole grains and white fish. (http://www.marysherbs.com/)
