Flaxseeds

Flaxseeds are high in viscous fiber, a type of soluble fiber that absorbs water and produces a gel in the digestive tract. Soluble fiber has been shown in studies to be particularly efficient in slowing digestion, which may improve weight loss by reducing hunger and calorie intake.

According to studies, including flaxseed in your diet might help you lose weight and control your appetite. When compared to a sugar-sweetened beverage, consuming a drink made with flax seeds increased feelings of fullness and lowered hunger, according to one small research. In a similar trial, bread buns with additional flaxseed fiber decreased hunger and increased fullness more than regular buns in 18 men. Flaxseeds are a versatile and easy-to-use ingredient. Ground flaxseeds can be sprinkled over cereal, added to a morning smoothie, or mixed into water to increase fiber consumption.
