You’ve probably heard the tip that if you’re interested in losing weight, it’s a good idea to eat slowly and chew your food at least 15-20 times before swallowing. Doing so allows your brain and body to actually sense that it’s full, instead of cramming a bunch of food down your throat only to find out 30 mins later that you’re WAY stuffed.
And for that reason cherries are good for weight loss.
With cherries, the pits force you to eat them slowly, allowing your satiation sensors to chime in and prevent you from over-indulging. Cherries have the LOWEST glycemic index of all fruits, and one of the lowest glycemic indexes of any carbohydrate source. |
