Moving forward on a path to create a healthy lifestyle may be the best decision you ever made. Let us consider soup for instance, research shows people who begin lunch with vegetable soup end up eating 20 percent less than those who skipped the soup. Add soup to your meal plan is a great move. Select a nutritious soup, broth-based as it has low energy density, fewer calories per gram than other food. Soups contain low to moderate amounts of sodium. Soups contribute to a feeling of fullness or satiety therefore choosing to start your meal with a soup, may certainly prevent you from overeating.
Whole grain foods are excellent choices for maintaining a healthy lifestyle as they are high in fibre. A high fibre intake is helpful in weight management. Whole grains have been around a long while, but the “on-trend” group in of the whole grain family falls under the moniker of ancient grains. These are grains such as farro, quinoa and sorghum, to name a few.
Farro is often labelled the “mother of all wheat species.” The grain is highly regarded in Italy and fast becoming one of the popular grains on the ‘on-trend’ list. Farro is high in fibre consists of protein, vitamin B3 and zinc, and low in gluten.
Quinoa is technically a gluten-free seed, however in cooking it is used as a grain. It is exceptionally high in protein, iron and fibre.
Sorghum is a great substitute for wheat, is gluten-free and high in protein, iron and fibre notably has a rich source of antioxidants.
