choosing the right appetizers may help you eat less If you're trying to watch your weight, you don't have to entirely avoid that bread basket and dish of olive oil before your meal. Noshing on whole-grain bread dipped in olive oil may actually help you eat less overall. Consuming a small amount of healthy unsaturated fat, such as olive oil, before a meal slows the rate at which the stomach empties, which means: * You'll digest your food more slowly, so you'll eat less but still feel full. * Your blood sugar won't hit a high peak after you eat, but will remain at a lower, stable level. * Your body will more easily absorb fat-soluble vitamins such as A, D, E, and K, as well as fat-soluble nutrients such as lycopene and lutein. It doesn't take much: Just 70 calories worth will do the trick. This translates into half a tablespoon of olive oil, 6 walnuts, 12 almonds, or 20 peanuts. i would like to share you some recipes which i had browse it in here..
