Kernels weight loss pluses

kernels weight loss pluses Kernels work in many weight loss diets and there is a reason: they contain monounsaturated fatty acids, which improve the health of the cardiac system and some polyunsaturated, which ease metabolism.

But this is not the whole picture. Kernels also contain Omega-6 fatty acids, which make muscle cell membranes more permeable, making easier entering of food stuffs. Sometimes explanation why fats are wight loss biggest enemies drops.

But there is a minus: Kernels are not rich protein source. It is some kind of bonus. If you eat more kernels you take disproportionate amount of fats and carbohydrates. About 75% of all calories in kernels come from fats and only 12% come from protein and carbohydrates.

The kernels secret and plus is in their quality and the time when you eat them. The main problem is the form, in which they have been sold – roasted, which destroy their nutrient properties.

Therefore search for raw kernels – as fresh as possible or in vacuum packing if you can not find them fresh. After you opened the packing you have 3 days to eat them, after that time they turn rancid, because of the huge amount of fats.

Kernels are not appropriate food after weight loss training, because they contain too many fats, which makes their absorption slower and your muscle can’t refuel fast. Forget about them for at least 40 min after cardio or weight training. But they can make your lunch best weight loss nutrition.

You can take about 10 kernels with every meal you have. The almonds are the best choice if you want to take them with every meal, because they contain Omaga-6 fatty acids. Another good choice are the walnuts, because they are rich of Omega-3 fatty acids.

Now you know more about kernels and their weight loss diet pluses. They can slow down food absorption, which is great if you eat something sweet.

I think the ability to slow down food absorption and the healthy Omega-3 and 6 fatty acids are really great advantages.

Summary:

Escape to eat kernels after training;
Eat kernels with every other meal you have;
Eat kernels with your dinner to prevent fat store;
Eat kernels with your breakfast to decrease your appetite and give your body energy for longer period;
Improve your health thanks to Omega-3 and 6 fatty acids;

Footnote:
“I have to be careful with kernels amount, because I need space in my stomach for protein and carbohydrate foods”
