More than half of Americans want to lose weight by controlling their diet, according to the latest US survey, the Daily Mail of London reported. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) says at least 160 million Americans are now registered to lose weight through diet control. From 2013 to 2016, these people kept in shape and reduced blood pressure and blood lipids by eating more vegetables, drinking more water, eating less, or even not eating fried food and meat, while the other half continued to grow weight in the past few years.
But according to the National Health and Nutrition Survey in the US, most people think that eating more vegetables and less fried and meat is a very torment, still reluctant to reduce high-fat food for a long time, and more of them choose to eat less than to choose food. Talking about this, we can find that the overall “eats little food” weight-loss strategy violates the biggest avoid of weight loss. Because the diet is unavoidable to cause malnutrition, and the appropriate amount of protein, vitamins, and minerals are essential, diet is certainly possible, but the so-called diet, must take away those high calories and low nutrition food, not all food is identical.
Weight loss does not always eat less, but “pick food”, pick those low-calorie high nutrition foods to eat. Those methods that can make you lose weight healthy and long-term can be called the effective method. Then how to pick the right food and form healthy eating habits?

Replacing staple foods with coarse foods.
The American diet is characterized by its quickness and convenience. Pizza, hot dogs, hamburgers, and sandwiches are the favorite foods for Americans which are mostly made from exquisite wheat flour; but the wheat flour was screened out wheat bran and left only exquisite flour part. While, the whole wheat flour is including wheat bran, which is not screened. Its nutrition level is higher than exquisite wheat flour.
