During a diet for weight loss, the following staple foods usually require controlled intake:
- White bread: It is highly processed with a low dietary fiber content, is easily and quickly digested and absorbed, causing a rapid increase in blood sugar. This can lead to hunger quickly and prompt more eating.
- White rice: Also a refined staple food, it has a high glycemic index and provides a relatively short duration of satiety.
- Deep-fried dough sticks: A fried staple food with extremely high calories and a lot of oil, which is not conducive to weight loss.
- Fried pancakes: A lot of oil is added during the production process, with excessive calories, which is prone to causing weight gain.
- Cakes: Usually contain a large amount of sugar, oil, and refined flour, with a high calorie density.
- Instant noodles: High in salt, oil, and calories, with a single nutritional composition, which is not beneficial for nutritional balance during weight loss.
It should be noted that it's not that these staple foods cannot be eaten at all, but rather the frequency and amount of consumption should be controlled. At the same time, combined with moderate exercise and other healthy eating habits, the goal of weight loss can be achieved.
