The Top Nutrients for Losing Fat Quickly
Sometimes we overcomplicate things in life. Losing weight is one such thing. By eating healthy and exercising regularly, weight loss is destined to happen. But there are some nutrients that can help you lose weight fast. Here they are:
Fat
First on the list is the most surprising. But before you get ahead of yourself and start eating potato chips we should clarify that the fat you need to lose weight fast falls under the umbrella of monounsaturated fats. Some examples of foods with these in them include:
- Olive oil
- Avocados
- Peanut butter
- Nuts
If you're looking for an online personal trainer in Calgary our fitness trainers are who you need to get in touch with. Both are high calibre athletes who have competed on national and international stages, proving they've got the discipline and training techniques it takes to get to the highest level of competition. Put those skills to work for you and your weight loss.
Protein
Protein is by far the most important nutrient needed when it comes to losing weight. While you'll want to keep an eye on how much you're ingesting, protein helps to kickstart metabolisms and is used to fuel your exercises that will help burn all the fat you need to lose to hit your goal weight. Examples of good proteins include:
- Lean meat (chicken, beef, pork)
- Eggs
- Cheese
- Milk
- Lentils
- Legumes
Fibre
Wrapping up the top three nutrients needed for losing weight fast is fibre. Foods that are high in fibre will fill you up faster and keep you full for longer, helping you avoid those sabotaging late night snacks that often undo all the hard work we put in earlier that day. Fibre also aids in keeping your plumbing regular, helping you get rid of waste in a timely fashion. Some of the best high-fibre foods include:
- Beans
- Whole grains
- Fruits
- Vegetables
- Potatoes
Hopefully this list can help you lose the weight you want to shed quickly. Just remember that the main thing when it comes to consuming any of the above nutrients is moderation. While each nutrient can help with your weight-loss goals, eating too much of either one will have the opposite effect you're trying to achieve. And as always, feel free to contact us with any weight-loss related questions you might have.
