As you know weight loss is linked to the foods that you put into your tummy. Great nutrition and exercise can, not only make you lose weight, but it can let you live a healthier and longer life and it can leave your skin looking young and vibrant.

Here is a list of foods that will give you energy and make you feel good, so that when you hit the gym, you are feeling strong and have the power to do the exercises you need for losing weight.

1. Beans – I am talking about kidney, navy, lentils, chickpeas and Northern which are all high in protein.  The best part of you eating these beans is that they contain very little fat, carbs and calories, so they will not sabotage your weight loss efforts.

2. Oatmeal – Oatmeal has great health benefits as it lowers the blood cholesterol. Oatmeal will fill you up and it will give you the fibers that your body craves for.

3. Fruits – fruits are best known for the anti oxidants that they contain with the many health benefits.

4. Allium foods – these foods have amazing health benefits such as aiding the body against cancer, lowering the blood pressure and preventing blood clots. So, next time you do your shopping, make sure you get onions, garlic, shallots and leeks.

5. Salmon – Stock up on that salmon because it is rich in protein and it contains the good fats that are recommended for your body. Did I forget to mention that it reduces heart disease?

6. Flax seed – these seeds contain omega 3 fatty acids, omega 6 fatty acids and omega 9 fatty acids. These are must buy foods, they fight diabetes, heart disease and high cholesterol.

7. Peppers – peppers contain vitamin c and beta-carotene, which are antioxidants. All peppers contain capsaicin, which helps to lower cancer risks and heart diseases.

8. Nuts and seeds – I know what you are thinking! Yes nuts are high in fat but they contain good fats as well as protein. So, it is ok to eat peanuts, almonds, Brazil nuts, walnuts and pistachios. They also help to lower the cholesterol.

9. Açai – I bet you have heard about this one. It increases your energy levels and it is rich in antioxidants.

10. Yogurt – yogurt contains calcium, vitamin b and protein. If you are concerned about your weight loss efforts, go for fat free.

Do your body a favor and stock up on these foods . . .
