Weight loss tip from Harvard: eat more berries
If you would like to lose some excess pounds of body weight, increase your intake of fruits and vegetables. According to an epidemiological study from Harvard University, published in PLoS Medicine in 2015, such a shift in your diet makes you a little leaner. The greatest weight-loss promoter the Harvardians discovered? Berries.
Study
The researchers looked at dietary changes - to be more precise: an increase or decrease in the intake of fruit and vegetables - and changes in body weight.
Results
When the researchers further broken down their data, looking separately at specific types of fruits and vegetables, they found that an increase in berry consumption was associated with the greatest decrease in body weight.
Conclusion
"Although the magnitude of weight change associated with each increased daily serving was modest, combining an increase of one-to-two servings of vegetables and one-to-two servings of fruits daily would be associated with substantial weight change, especially if projected to the population level."
