13 Fat Releasing Foods to Lose Weight Fast

I can’t believe that honey helps lose weight. Honey made poop fat and can’t get out of rabbit’s hole.

Hi my name’s Masoud, an English teacher from Iran, I’ve been following you for at least 8 years since I started to study English seriously and eversince I’ve been buying and reading the magazine, and I’ve always taken it into my classes and introduced it to my students. with your amazing and profound magazine full of knowledge, art, fiction and fun this language journey has been much more exciting and rewarding both to me and all my students throughout my teaching career; so i’m really grateful for all the efforts and energy you all have put to deliver one of the best social magazines ever ,however, it has never stopped to intrigue me why despite years of writing and talking about ways of losing weight, and thousands of “13 Ways or Things..” you’re still keeping it up and still offering the same stereotyped and common knowledge pieces of advice and tips! yet it’s mysteriously surprising that  we can’t see the slightest change in the public eating habits or the smallest drop in obesity rates or faintest decline in number of diabetes, heart, blood pressure and other patients. Don’t you think it’s high time you gave this a second thought and had a change of strategy or at least adopted a newer and more up-to-date and creative way of addressing the issue based on a genuine need analysis or a thorough study of how to develop a health care culture instead of prescribing short time impractical health advice and tips!? 
Best Wishes!
Masoud

I’m so disappointed that your article pushes dairy–that is SO bad for you. Someone must have the NDC in their pockets $.

the more antioxidents you eat the more it allows your body to use the oxygen in a healthier way thus the name antioxidents I love walnuts olive oil tomato sauce bilberry grapeseed and the winner pycnogenol its says it helps you prolong your life I think if your body recieves these all day in supplements or food you are really less hungry and can most defintly sleep better

There is nothing new here at all– in fact this list, in one form or another, has been around for at least 10 years. Yawn. And some of these “fat releasing” foods (that’s a good one– we can almost picture it!)  will actually increase weight. People already know how to lose weight. However, we’ve been sold on the idea that it’s so difficult and “scientific” –and we couldn’t possibly think for ourselves– that weight reduction gurus and businesses have rallied around the problem and are chortling all the way to the bank.

We already know to trade in the Twinkies, Ho-Ho’s and hot wings for real food in reasonable portions. It’s not science. We don’t need a ton of studies to prove that fresh food is healthier. It’s pretty simple. We wouldn’t feed a race horse poor food and expect it to run well or even live long. We should respect ourselves and care for our bodies just as much as we would a prized animal.

And why do so-called nutritionists and diet divas continue to pimp wine and chocolate? Because they’re pretty sure that’s what we want to hear and it sells. What’s not to love about a “plan” that includes booze and chocolate? But if we look at the actual studies behind these ideas that are so frequently employed to sell us yet another plan, there’s not much to rave about.

For instance, we’d have to drink about 30 bottles of red wine (Bordeaux, specifically) every day to get any benefit noted in the study. Thanks for telling us the truth about that one! And should we conveniently forget that that even one glass of wine delays food digestion? How about that it also impairs judgement? Ever see anyone grazing on cheese with that wine? Well, “dairy” is on the list, so….. Yes, but a pound?

And while honey is a natural sweetener, it will add weight just as easily as sugar if too much is consumed. Pooh had a tummy on him– and it was the honey!  He ate the stuff like everyday was his birthday!

Many people are allergic to dairy and to chocolate and react violently. Others are sensitive to them and will “bloat” and retain water and/or will have diarrhea just from consuming these products. That goes for grains as well. We’re all different. And food cravings are often an indication of food problems. Just as alcoholics crave booze, people with sugar problems crave all things made with sugar, for example. It’s still simple.

So spare us the list of singled out “winners.” Fresh, unprocessed, “un-fried” food, a little observation about what we eat and how we react to our food choices are all that’s needed. Simple. And the portion thing will take care of itself. Once the body no longer believes it’s starving or in a state of emergency, it finds balance.

I challenge Reader’s Digest to come up with a fresh approach on a topic which plagues so many people. Obviously “the miracle plans” don’t work…..
