While Frank Yan was visiting his local Sacramento Whole Foods supermarket, he decided to have is lunch by the cafe. At the cafe, Frank saw a nutrition magazine that caught his eye and he proceeded to skim through the pages. What Frank Yan found was an article about what healthy foods keep you full.
The article he read and learned was that many whole grain pasta salad, lentils and peas and all with a complex carb that can assist us feel full and lose weight. What also intrigued Frank was that beans, lentils, cold pasta, potatoes and barely ripe bananas, all have something in common. They are all filled brimming with types of fiber that goes through the stomach undigested and becomes fermented in the intestines. So what does this mean for our health we might ask? This process releases hormones that trigger the body to use stored fat for fuel. This fiber can take the edge off of our appetites, allowing us to be fuller for a lot longer.
Beyond helping us to losing the weight, a rich in fiber diet can diminish precancerous cells as well as reduce inflammation. So when Frank Yan is shopping at any of his local Sacramento supermarkets, he tries to choose more fibrous foods such as peas, yams, peas, barley, and chickpeas along with cooked and chilled foods sushi and whole grain pasta salad.
