1. The truth of tomato weight loss
Why can tomatoes lose weight? Let's sum up first and see if the following reasons can make you interested in losing weight with tomatoes.
1) occupation method
The nutritional value of tomatoes is very high, but its nutritional function is not to provide nutrients with high heat production. That is to say, tomatoes do not contain much sugar, protein and fat, but their functional substances are vitamins, minerals, lycopene and cellulose.
If we eat a lot of tomatoes. It occupies the volume of the stomach, making it impossible for people to eat a lot of high-calorie food.
Because although a person's stomach is a skin, it can expand and contract, but everyone's food intake is generally limited, and tomatoes occupy some positions. Naturally, the chances of other foods entering the stomach are reduced, and the possibility of excess nutrients accumulating in the body is greatly reduced. As we all know, reducing excess nutrition intake is an important way to lose weight while maintaining the basic needs of the human body. Eating tomatoes to reduce other foods entering the stomach has become a good thing to kill two birds with one stone, which can not only achieve the effect of losing weight, but also get other very beneficial substances, such as lycopene. Why not?
2) thermal reduction method
We know that substances that provide nutrients to the human body will "burn" after entering the human body. That is, oxidation, converted into heat energy, and then supplied to the needs of human life activities. For example, 1g sugar (also called carbohydrate) can produce 4 calories, and 1g protein can produce 9 calories. Therefore, when calculating dietary requirements, the calorie unit "kilocalorie" is often used to measure the requirements of various foods and balance people's dietary structure. If the human body doesn't need so many calories, the absorbed nutrients will be stored in the body in the form of fat and glycogen, which will make people fat.
As far as thermonutrients are concerned, the content of tomatoes in this respect is very small, and it is difficult to accumulate excess calories in the body if you eat too much. Calories need carbohydrates (sugars), protein and other substances to provide. Eating tomatoes instead of some other foods is equivalent to reducing some calories into the body. The body may have enough opportunities to consume the heat generated by other foods in the body, so as not to let them be converted into fat and stored in the body. If the heat is not enough, the body will automatically convert the fat and sugar stored in the body into heat for consumption. Reduce the intake of thermogenic substances, and then consume excess body fat. Isn't this to lose weight?
3) Push-pendulum method
Tomatoes are rich in vitamins and various minerals, which are important substances necessary for human life activities. In other words, they can provide nutrition for many functions of the human body and of course promote the function of the gastrointestinal tract. Tomatoes contain a lot of cellulose, which people don't like to absorb. After the nutrients are used up, cellulose is excreted as garbage. But before it is ruled out, it will finish its work. It is to stimulate the intestine and make it move faster, which is very beneficial to the excretion of waste in the body. At the same time, tomatoes contain quite a lot of water. It also has the function of promoting gastrointestinal movement. If you can eat enough tomatoes, you can effectively improve the functional state of the gastrointestinal tract, promote the contents of the gastrointestinal tract to move as soon as possible, and accelerate absorption, excretion and blood circulation. If pushed, the metabolites in the body will accumulate as little as possible, and the enhanced vitality will easily reduce the stored fat. Who can say that this is not a healthy weight loss?
4) substitution method
Many people like to eat snacks, many people like to eat supper, and some people like to have a waist meal between these two meals. If you eat too much, you don't need so much, so you have to put it there to prepare for the famine and gradually gain weight. If you want to eat snacks, if you want to eat other non-formal meals, you can not only enjoy delicious food, but also fill your stomach. More importantly, it can prevent you from being obese and improve your health. Over time, it can also help you get rid of the habit of eating snacks, which has been proved by Japanese weight loss. Many compatriots also have these "by-products" in weight loss, so try it.
How, when and how much should I eat tomatoes to lose weight?
The ability of tomato to produce heat is very low. 200 grams of tomatoes only produce about 30 kilocalories, while 200 grams of rice or flour produce at least 700 kilocalories and pork produces 900 kilocalories. Adult women need to consume about 1 1,800 kilocalories for three meals a day, and the ability of tomatoes to fill their stomachs is still good. If you eat more tomatoes and subtract some high-calorie foods such as rice, pasta and meat, you can also feel full. If you can easily reduce 300 kilocalories into the body, you can achieve the requirement of losing weight.
Some people say that only tomatoes are eaten for lunch and dinner, and only high-calorie foods are eaten for breakfast in a week, but only once a month, so that you can lose 2 ~ 5 kg in a month. But two of the three meals a day don't eat any staple food at all, and I'm afraid my stomach will have problems when I carry it out.
Some people argue that you can still eat the usual diet for breakfast and lunch, and refuse rice and flour meat for dinner. As long as you eat 500 or 800 grams of tomatoes, the calories in a whole day can be controlled below 1.400 kcal. If you persist in this way, you will definitely lose weight.
The Japanese method is to eat tomatoes before every meal, eat as much as you can, occupy the site first and then eat, and count as many as you can. Of course, it is not consistent. Some are eaten as fruits; Others make drinks, which are delicious according to their own tastes.
Prescription:
First, don't pay attention to how to eat. You can eat it raw or cooked. The absorption of lycopene can be increased by more than 2 times after cooking, so it seems that it is better to cook and eat as much as possible.
Second, you can't eat tomatoes completely, as long as you reduce your usual appetite by 1/4 to 1/2, it should be enough. Don't let the rush to lose weight affect the normal nutrition and physical strength, and even lead to other problems, then it is not worth the loss.
Third, you don't have to stay at a specific time, you can eat it at any time, as long as it reaches about 200 ~ 500 grams per day.
The fourth is persistence. Fortunately, tomatoes are a good thing. They can be eaten all the time and in different ways. It's easy to stick to it.
