Tomato
Vegetables must be natural!
Contains useful organic acids, fructose, mineral compounds, glucose, as well as a large number of vitamins, including retinol, B vitamins.
In addition, the vegetable contains a rare component - lycope, which has the ability to prevent the formation of cancer cells and powerful antioxidant properties.
Thanks to this, tomato is a valuable ingredient in dieting for diseases of the cardiovascular system.
Benefit
By including salads in your diet, you speed up the weight loss process due to:
- their low calorie content;
- cleansing the body;
- quick and long-lasting satiation, which dulls hunger between meals, allowing you to refrain from unwanted snacks;
- acceleration of metabolism;
- burning fat and maintaining muscle mass (if the appropriate ingredients are present in the composition);
- improved digestion thanks to fiber;
- enriching the body with vitamins, amino acids and minerals;
- minimal risk of going off the diet, since the diet will be varied and not boring.
A pleasant bonus of losing weight on salads will be the improvement in the condition of the skin and hair, which will also benefit a little from their vitamin composition. Fresh fruits, berries, vegetables and herbs will strengthen the immune system and improve the functioning of internal organs. Healthy unsaturated fats in nuts and olive oil will tidy up the nervous system. Proteins (mushrooms, meat, fish, eggs, legumes) will help keep muscle fibers intact, which are usually used as sources of additional energy instead of fats.
Origin of the name. The word “salad” is of Latin origin: “salata” translates as “salty.”
Cabbage (all varieties)
All varieties of vegetables are rich in various valuable substances. Among them:
- vegetable protein;
- calcium;
- amino acids;
- cellulose,
- beta-carotene;
- potassium;
- phosphorus;
- hydroxymalonic acid;
- vitamins.
Cabbage has a healing, anti-inflammatory effect, helps eliminate constipation, improves the functioning of the digestive tract, and prevents the development of cancer.
Green onions, dill, parsley
Greens are a good addition to a salad.
Leafy vegetables have a rich composition of beneficial chemical elements that have a beneficial effect on the health of the human body.
Among them:
- cellulose;
- chlorophyll;
- essential oils;
- flavonoids;
- sugar;
- vegetable protein;
- phytoncides;
- a huge amount of vitamins and minerals.
Adding plant greens to salads helps cleanse the intestines of waste deposits and remove harmful toxins from the body.
Vegetable salads allow you to achieve saturation with carbohydrates for a long time, thereby reducing the feeling of hunger, preventing overeating and the development of obesity.
In addition, plant foods do not clog blood vessels with cholesterol, having a beneficial effect on the activity of the cardiovascular system.
These Six Mistakes Make Salad High in Calories
Mistake #1. Adding chips and croutons to your salad is a calorie bomb.
It doesn’t matter what you take: corn chips, dried tortillas, croutons - thanks to them, the calorie content of the salad will increase dramatically. One handful of these crisps provides 120 kcal. There is no benefit to them, they are food garbage. If you want some crunch, choose nuts: pistachios or walnuts, they are healthier. Don't put too much - take half the serving recommended in the salad bar. With nuts, you'll get a little more healthy fat, protein, and fiber, which will keep you feeling full longer.
Mistake No. 2. Taking a lot of dried fruits.
Think dried cranberries are a healthy addition to your fruit salad? No matter how it is! Almost all dried fruits, such as raisins or dried apricots, contain a lot of natural sweetness. And dried cranberries are prepared by dipping in sugar syrup, so their calorie content is even higher. A quarter glass of such cranberries contains almost 100 kcal, while the same serving of seedless grapes contains only 16 kcal! So it is better to add pieces of fresh apples, oranges or grapes to the salad, rather than dried fruits.
Mistake #3. Choosing the wrong protein.
Crispy chicken pieces, coconut-crusted shrimp, fried tofu, bacon bits, or any protein marinated in sauce and fried will add a lot of extra calories to your salad. Another insidious source of high calorie content is multi-meat salads, such as Cobb, which contains bacon, ham and turkey.
If you want to add protein to your salad, your favorites should be boiled shrimp or grilled salmon, canned tuna (no mayonnaise!), steamed tofu, boiled egg, turkey fillet or rotisserie chicken pieces. When adding them to a salad, follow the rule of the size of your palm (a portion of proteins should fit in the palm of your hand).
Mistake #4. Forget that vegetables are different.
The biggest confusion occurs in the choice of vegetables. The basis of a proper salad should not be starchy vegetables, but low-calorie ones. These include all leaf lettuces, spinach, all types of cabbage (cauliflower, Brussels sprouts and broccoli), eggplant, mushrooms, peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, celery, peas, artichokes, fennel and asparagus. Once you've got plenty of green, healthy vegetables on your plate, you can add nutrition in the form of two, but no more, starchy vegetables. For example, take 1 spoon from this category: potatoes, corn, zucchini. And the second is made from legumes or grains: beans, lentils, peas, quinoa, brown rice. This way you will create a tasty and balanced salad that will enrich you with nutrients and create a feeling of fullness.
Mistake #5. Add a lot of cheese to the salad.
The calorie content and large amount of animal fat in cheese do not change because you added it to a salad and not to pizza. Add less cheese, no more than 30 g. The same applies to sources of vegetable fats - avocado and nuts, as well as salad dressing made from vegetable oil. For 1 serving of salad, 1/8 of an avocado or ¼ tbsp is enough. l. nuts and the same amount of dressing. Even better, do not dress the salad with oil, but sprinkle it with crumbled pickled cheeses, such as feta or soft goat cheese.
Mistake No. 6. High-calorie sauces.
The wrong dressing or sauce for a salad can easily add 200-300 kcal on top of what it already contains! If you want to save your figure, then season the salad with low-calorie dressings, for example, lemon juice with salt and pepper, lime juice. And for those looking for more delicious sauce options, it's important to remember: you're safe as long as your dressing contains no more than 1 tbsp. l. olive (or any vegetable) oil and a little wine vinegar. Mayonnaise and any creamy dressings such as Caesar dressing and ranch dressing are prohibited for those who want to maintain a slim figure. Be careful with hidden sugar bombs like Dijon mustard dressing with honey and olive oil - it's loaded with calories!

Fruit salads are best used for snacks to satisfy your hunger and brighten up your daily diet. They are easy to prepare: there is no need to cook anything, all ingredients are cut into large pieces, and only unsweetened yoghurt can be used for dressings. Another advantage is the large number of variations. The fruits go well together. Mix everything you find at home and your low-calorie dish is ready!

No matter how useful the Brush is, its ingredients cannot contain all the beneficial substances necessary for the normal functioning of the body. Therefore, try to cook something new every day, change ingredients, experiment.
