May aid weight loss

Leeks, like other vegetables, may aid with weight loss. This vegetable contains extremely few calories per serving, with 31 calories for 3.5 ounces (100 grams) of boiled leeks. Furthermore, leeks are high in water and fiber, which may help you avoid hunger, enhance feelings of fullness, and naturally eat less.

They also include soluble fiber, which creates a gel in your intestines and is very good for suppressing hunger and appetite. Furthermore, research consistently correlates vegetable-rich diets to weight reduction or decreased weight gain over time. Including leeks or wild ramps in your diet can help raise your overall vegetable intake, which may enhance this benefit.
