5 Superfoods to Jump-Start Your Weight Loss

Sure, there are plenty of fish in the sea, but salmon is one of the healthiest swimmers out there. It's a lean protein that's loaded with omega-3 fats, which have been shown to help fight inflammation and may also protect your bones. A recent eight-week study found that, as part of a reduced-calorie diet, subjects who ate three servings of salmon per week lost, on average, 11 pounds and improved markers for inflammation. If you reel in a fish dish in place of red meat, all the better, as most experts recommend limiting your intake, especially of fatty, processed meats like bacon and deli meats.
