Everyone knows that you need to eat fiber; it keeps your body healthy and it helps you get rid of fat and indirectly, it reduces cellulite.
Before eating lots of fiber I have to warn you about... farting. Sounds funny? Well, everything comes with a cost. You want to stay pretty and healthy, you also need to fart. Ok, I'm half kidding. If you start your high-fiber diet slowly, you won't have surprises.
What can fiber do for you?
It can make you feel full a lot faster. Also, it takes calories to burn food that contain high fiber. On its way out, it drags some of the fat after it. It lowers cholesterol.
You should increase your intake from 14g of fiber to 30g. Middle Eastern countries and African countries eat even 50g a day.
Foods that contain high fiber are:
bran cereal - I would also suggest you be careful not to exagerate with them and to start putting on weight instead of losing! Therefore, read my previous post on separating food - Food Combining to Lose Weight;
beans, peas;
spinach;
cabbage;
whole green beans;
brussels sprouts;
carrots;
potatoes;
apples;
oranges;
rice;
pear;
raw celery;
cauliflower;
melons, etc.
All vegetables have fiber to some extent. So do fruits. So have plenty of them and stay healthy and fit. Even lose weight.
Losing weight and staying healthy is easy, when you care. Forget famishing yourself: there are other ways.
Since I was 15 I've been obsessed with healthy diets, losing weight, sports, and everything included. I read books after books and I collected articles on staying fit and healthy. Even now, 12 years later, I am still reading everything I find on the subject.
I will share with you, step by step, everything I know. Free advice.
