Apples: Boost weight loss success by as much as 33%

apples for weight loss

Boost weight loss success by as much as 33% just by eating Apples.

Noshing on an unpeeled apple can eliminate cravings and increase the amount of weight you lose on any diet by 33%.


A recent study in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition found that enjoying an apple before a meal curbs appetite for up to 4 hours, and Brazilian researchers discovered that the habit can boost weight loss success by as much as 33%.

Having an apple before lunch prevents the blood sugar dips that trigger cravings for sweets or carbohydrates later in the day.

The reason for this amazing weight loss boost: Apples are one of the richest sources of pectin, a soluble fiber that turns into a sticky gel-like substance in the gut and adheres to simple sugar, stalling their absorption into the bloodstream, according to Cambridge University Researchers.
