8 Secret Superfoods For Weight Loss (5 of 5)
Chia Seeds
Chia seed is the not-so-secret-anymore superfood that has become mainstream. It is still one of the most powerful foods you can incorporate into your diet. “Chia seeds give you stable energy because of their great ratio of protein, fats, and fiber combined with the fact that they’re low-carb. They won’t cause spikes and drops in blood sugar or insulin levels, preventing cravings and overeating later,” says Carolyn Brown, MS, RD at Foodtrainers. Chia can be made into a pudding, baked into foods, or added to smoothies.
