These 7 Low-Calorie Healthy Foods Will Help Keep You Full!

The main problem with most diets is that they leave us hungry, and although most of them allow us to snack between meals, sometimes we feel that the foods we put into our bodies simply aren’t satisfying.

To overcome this problem, it is recommended that you start eating more of these seven foods, all of which will provide your body with many nutrients or liquids that will relieve hunger and at the same time have a minimal amount of calories, meaning they won’t ruin your diet!

 

1. Peas 

fruits and vegetables

Peas are considered to be legumes and vegetables, and in every cup of peas, there are 8 grams of dietary fibers. You can make use of fresh or frozen peas, as both provide your diet with a great amount of vitamin A and C. 

Try this: Add peas to soup or a rice dish to make most efficient and delicious use of this tiny vegetable, and provide yourself with a sense of satiety.

2. Artichoke hearts

fruits and vegetables

Like peas, a cup of artichoke hearts will provide your body with 8 grams of dietary fiber, and they’re also considered a great source of magnesium and vitamin C, which help reduce the risk of heart and vascular problems. 

Try this: Add steamed or roasted artichoke hearts to a salad, or blend them with white beans, olive oil and lemon juice for a delicious dip!

3. Asparagus

fruits and vegetables

In one cup of asparagus, you’ll find 3 grams of dietary fibers and only 27 calories. It is also an excellent source of iron, and therefore, eating asparagus is recommended for those that suffer from a deficiency of it.

4. Fennel

fruits and vegetables

Thanks to their large water content, one cup of fennel is only 27 calories. If you enjoy eating salty foods that often cause bloating, eat fennel to avoid this annoying feeling.
