Eggplant for weight loss:
Eggplant is a great food to help you lose weight. Eggplant is a low-carb, nutrient-dense, calorie-poor food, meaning that it contains high levels of nutrients but not a lot of calories or carbohydrates. One cup of eggplant contains only eight grams of carbohydrates, two of those coming from fiber. It is also a low glycemic food, meaning that the small amount of carbohydrates in eggplant doesn’t cause much of an impact on your blood sugar levels (another key for optimizing weight loss).
yogurt for weight loss:
Researchers found that adults who ate three servings of fat-free yogurt a day as part of a reduced-calorie diet lost 22% more weight and 61% more body fat than those who simply cut calories and didn’t bone up on calcium. Yogurt eaters also lost 81% more fat in the stomach area than non-yogurt eaters.
