4. Cauliflower
Cauliflower is a cruciferous vegetable, meaning it belongs to the same family as broccoli and kale. Cauliflower has high fiber content and low calories, which makes it an excellent choice for weight loss. When you’re on a diet to lose weight, fiber will help keep you full while also preventing overeating.
Cauliflower is also low in fat and has a low glycemic index (GI), which means it won’t spike your blood sugar levels like other foods might do. If your goal is to lose weight without sacrificing taste, cauliflower can help with that too! It’s also rich in vitamins and minerals like vitamin K, B6, folate, calcium and magnesium—just be sure not to overcook because then these nutrients will be lost through cooking or boiling water out of the vegetable itself.
