Weight loss with Natural appetite suppressants

TRY AS YOU might to resist the temptation of damning diet foods, there are times when insidious hunger prevails and you're elbow deep in a bag of chips. To combat that, make sure you keep some of these healthy drinks, foods, and spices in your office and home. These appetite-suppressing staples are all backed by science and exactly what you need to beat away hunger. Best of all, none of them will add a notch in your belt buckle - so long as you munch in moderation.

Coffee
Don't feel so bad about your morning (mid-morning, and afternoon) coffee. The caffeine significantly revs up your metabolism and can even boost fat oxidation (when your body uses fat as fuel) when you have a cup after a meal. Another study from the same journal discovered decaf coffee can seriously curb hunger and increase the satiety hormone PYY. Keep this in mind if you're looking for an afternoon pick-me-up that won't leave you jittery. Try, if you can, to avoid added sugar and milk; opt for these healthy add-ins instead.

Whey Protein
If you're not supplementing your diet and training regimen with whey, you're missing out. Protein, in general, promotes satiety and increases the secretion of hunger-curbing hormones; whey is typically more satisfying than casein in the short term, whereas casein is more satiating in the long term. However, whey protein has been found to increase fat loss while leaving lean muscle unscathed, per research published in Nutrition & Metabolism.

Ginger Root
Ayurveda, the alternative medicine practice, has long since used ginger in teas and supplements as an appetite suppressant - and for good reason. Gingerol, the active compound in fresh ginger root, is so powerful it can be used as a natural supplement to ward off obesity. In the study, done on rodents, a daily gingerol supplement helped reduce body weight and moderate leptin (satiety hormone) levels, helping fight off uncontrollable hunger.

Green Tea and Matcha
Want to fight midday munchies? Make a mug of green tea or stir a couple spoonfuls of matcha (ground up green tea leaves) into hot water; the caffeine can help curb your appetite.

Oatmeal
Oatmeal - the kind made from steel cut or rolled oats, not microwaved sugar packets - is an incredibly wholesome source of soluble fiber that naturally keeps you fuller longer. That fiber creates a gel in your stomach, which helps delay digestion.

Water
Scientists from the American Chemical Society proved water is one of the simplest ways to stifle hunger pangs and reduce overeating. Downing two 8-ounce glasses of h20 before breakfast, lunch, and dinner allowed study subjects to eat 75-90 fewer calories during their meals; and, over 3 months, the dieters who drank water before eating lost about 5 pounds more than men and women who didn't ramp up their water intake.

Cinnamon
One of the most powerful spices you can eat, cinnamon serves as an appetite suppressant by stabilizing blood sugar levels and delaying gastric emptying (when nutrients from your stomach pass into the upper intestine to be absorbed), per research published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Toss some on Greek yogurt or add to smoothies - along with these other powerful protein shake ingredients you’re not using.

Spicy Foods
Hot sauce. Chili peppers. Cayenne. Any of these foods will not only curb your appetite, they'll also supercharge your body's ability to burn fat (thank you, capsaicin). Researchers found hot chili peppers activate a nerve in the stomach that signals to your body that it's full. You should also know a high-fat diet messes with these stomach-to-brain receptors, and can lead to obesity, so be mindful. It's also thought super-spicy foods and sauces slow down how quickly you wolf down food (because your mouth is on fire), allowing your brain to register you've had enough to eat, preventing overindulgence. Make these insanely hot (healthy) recipes to help you lose weight.

Avocado
Unsaturated fats, like oleic acid found in avocados.
