Blueberries – Eating blueberries could help you lose weight, scientists revealed recently.

Researchers found that if the animals were given meals enriched with blueberries, they lost fat from their stomachs. Although the tests were carried out on rats, scientists from the University of Michigan hope they have implications for human health. In the tests, researchers used freeze-dried blueberries crushed into a powder. The rats’ food contained just two per cent of the preparation. The effect is thought to be due to the high level of phytochemicals – naturally occurring antioxidants – that blueberries contain. Lead researcher Mitchell Seymour, of the university’s Cardioprotection Research Laboratory, said: ‘Blueberry intake affected genes related to fat-burning and storage.
Coffee – A study published in the journal, ‘Physiology & Behavior’, found that the average metabolic rate of people who drink caffeinated coffee is 16 percent higher than than of those who drink decaf. Every little thing we can do helps, so that boost of 16% in metabolism from an everyday cup of coffee will soon add up and be translated into a trimmer you.
Calcium – A recent study revealed that women who consumed diets poor in calcium had more body fat and bigger waistlines than those who consumed moderate or large amounts of calcium. Another study showed that the more people reduced their consumption of dairy products over the six-year period examined, the more weight and body fat they gained and the bigger their waistlines grew. Make sure you are eating an adequate amount of low fat dairy products, such as yoghurt, semi-skimmed milk and lower fat cheeses, such as half fat mozzarella.
Don’t Forget Your Fish Oil! – In a recent study, dieters who ate salmon felt fuller 2 hours later than those who either didn’t eat seafood or had cod, a fish with little fat. The researchers found that eating foods high in omega-3s, increased blood levels of leptin, a hormone that promotes satiety. If you don’t like fish, you can take fish oil capsules for the same effect.

The experiment found a parallel and significant increase in appetite suppressing hormones; cholecystokinin (CCK) of 60% and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP1) of 25%, that remained as long as four hours after ingestion.
