Eat Salad to Lose Weight.

Salads and fruit are worthwhile to add to a weight loss diet.

Always make your SALAD more colorful. While constructing your salad, go for veggies and lean protein instead of high-calorie toppings like croutons and cheddar cheese. Sprinkle some lemon juice on top for additional flavor.

If you’re not making a meal of salad, try a side-dish salad before your meal to help you decrease your portions of other foods.

Green salads are a healthful addition to any diet, with most leafy vegetables provides lots of nutrient.

Research shows that many vitamins and minerals have unique synergistic effects—meaning that they’re even more powerful when eaten together. So pack your salad with as many other veggies or fruits as possible! Carrots, cucumbers, different colored peppers, broccoli, peas, artichokes, strawberries, raspberries, or pears are great choices to get in different textures as well as plenty of filling fiber.

I’m using Olive Oil for dressing my salad. Eating about 2 tablespoons (23 grams) of olive oil daily may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease due to the monounsaturated fat in olive oil.
