Fab Foods These are my must-have food. I eat them so much as I can every day. It helps that I love them, so it’s a treat, not a chore.

Yogurt: It’s full of calcium (400 mg. Per cup), which is proven to help burn fat and weight loss, plus protein (8 grams per cup) promotion, which helps your body build muscle. One cup has as much potassium as a banana. The potassium flushes sodium from that frees you from liquids and bloat. It also contains lecithin, which promotes digestion. The yogurt contains probiotics that strengthen the immune system and friendly bacteria that break down toxins and help your body more vitamins, minerals, and proteins absorb. Make sure you read the labels carefully and choose only those who live and active cultures and no added sugar or high fructose corn syrup have.

Berries: raspberries, blueberries, cranberries, blackberries, anything with the word “berry” at the end of it. They have tons of vitamins C and E, fiber and antioxidants. The fiber fills you up, curbs cravings, and helps eliminate toxins and fluids. Antioxidants give you glowing skin, shiny hair and strong nails. They improve memory and well brains function (for remembering names on that special occasion!).

Oats and whole grains: oatmeal, barley, oat bran, brown rice, rye, and quinoa are a perfect combo of fiber, protein and complex carbs. They are also rich in magnesium and potassium. The fiber keeps cravings at bay and send metabolism, so it will have a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast the morning peak you love. Sprinkle on cinnamon, which you reach for a sugary, mid-morning snack will keep.
