Artichokes and Losing Weight

Artichokes are a great food for losing weight and fit with almost any diet that you want to take on, There are several reasons for this.

The first is that it only has 60 calories for the entire plant. An average sized artichoke is big in girth but small in terms of the amount of energy it stores, i.e calories.

The second reason is that it is very high in fiber which has no calories, plus it slows down the absorption of carbohydrate into your bloodstream. This is good for your weight loss efforts as it keeps insulin low.

The last reason is that the carbohydrate content that artichokes do have are low glycemic, which is just another way of saying they don't raise your insulin level too much -something that is a big factor in losing weight.

So if you're looking to shed some pounds then including artichokes in your diet is a perfect choice.
