Doctor Alexander Myasnikov in his Saturday show on the Rossiya TV channel told how to have breakfast correctly.
The most important rule, according to the host of the program, is never skip breakfast. Have a healthy breakfast every day, and you will feel a surge of energy, you will think well and you will not want to eat until the evening.
The doctor claims that breakfast triggers the circadian rhythm of many organs. Our hormonal system waits in the morning for food to enter the stomach.
“The food arrived and the hormones began to work. And if you don’t eat on time in the morning, the body retains energy, and we begin to gain weight,” said Myasnikov.< br>For breakfast, the diet should contain proteins and complex carbohydrates, such as scrambled eggs, porridge, but not coffee with chocolate or a sandwich with white bread and mayonnaise, warned Alexander Myasnikov.
“For weight loss, all meals, the total caloric content of the diet, but especially dinner are important. A proper dinner contributes to the proper functioning of the pancreas and the stabilization of insulin in the blood,” saysdietitian Yulia Lementina especially for MedicForum.
Dinner products that promote weight loss should be light, rich in protein, vitamins and minerals, as well as low-calorie and easily digestible, says the nutritionist.
Lementina named several options for dinner products that promote weight loss.
Chicken or fish
Protein in meat or fish helps you feel fuller longer, which can reduce the urge to overeat.
“Steam or steam chicken or fish grill, avoiding frying in oil,” advises the nutritionist.
Vegetables
Green vegetables such as spinach, broccoli or asparagus are an excellent source of vitamins, minerals and fiber, while containing few calories. You can add them to salads or steam them.
Beans
For example, beans or lentils are rich in protein and fiber, which helps keep you feeling full.
“You can make a soup with the beans or add them to a salad.”
Tofu
This is a vegetarian source of protein that is also low in calories. You can use it in cooking dishes such as Stewed Vegetables with Tofu or Stewed Tofu with Vegetables.
Omelet with Vegetables
Make an egg omelet with vegetables such as tomatoes, spinach or mushrooms. Omelette is high in protein and low in calories.
Buckwheat or oatmeal
They contain a lot of fiber, which promotes a feeling of fullness, and are also rich in vitamins and minerals.
“You can cook porridge with water or low-fat milk.”
Low-fat dairy products
Such as low-fat yogurt or low-fat cottage cheese are a source of protein and calcium , while containing few calories.
“It is important to remember that weight loss is achieved not only by proper nutrition, but also by moderate physical activity. It is recommended to discuss any changes in diet with a nutritionist or doctor,” says Lementina.< br>
