- Salads are considered to be the key to fitness. Had this idea ever hit you to restrict your meals to salads completely? Like daily, three times a day!
But before you jump to this diet, you should know when you eat only this bowl of salad every day, what does it do to your body? We will consider both the pros and cons of eating salad every day let's say for a month (30 days).
First, let’s look at some Pros
1. You are Consuming healthy fat.
Roasted or raw seeds like pumpkin and sunflower seeds are examples of good fat. These you can easily include in your salad too. Also, some oil-based dressings are good fat too. Just ensure you are not consuming saturated fat, which is quite unhealthy.
2. Your digestion improves.
When you eat salads, you're consuming a high amount of fibers. Fibers help to clean your intestines and speed up the process of absorbing the right nutrients. In simple words, they do not let you complain of constipation.
3. Your body gets essential vitamins.
Your body will receive the right amounts of vitamins when you eat salads. Vitamins are essential for your health and offer numerous advantages. For example, vitamin A is vital for your vision. In contrast, vitamin C is an antioxidant agent that helps your skin look young and fresh.
4. You will lose weight
With the right amount of foods in your salad bowl, you will consume fewer calories. When you eat multiple types of food items daily, you are also taking the calories offered by each of them. But if your choices are limited, you have better control over your calorie intake.
5. Your blood pressure will drop
Green veggies are an excellent source of Potassium. Potassium lowers your blood pressure and is good for the heart. Remember! High blood pressure is a silent killer. Your salad bowl even saves you from this disease.
6. Your muscles will become active
Do you remember Popeye, the sailor? And how he used to consume spinach to get bigger biceps? Scientists have now proved that some green vegetables speed up the process of converting protein into muscle mass. This process helps to build your muscles.
Now, let’s see some Cons
1. You crave for more
Eating the same kind of salads every day will restrict your taste buds to a limited choice of foods. Hence they want more. People eating salads are eagerly waiting to try the delicious meals that are out there. And when they get a chance to do so, it's hard to stop. They will probably end up cheating or overeating.
2. You feel hungry
Salads are not fulfilling! You feel hunger pains, and this is a significant drawback of following this diet. But it is not like this problem doesn't have a solution. It would be best if you keep going. Once your body gets used to this limited meal, it will adjust and reduce its appetite, and you will no longer feel these hunger attacks.
3. You mistakenly consume more
Salads are healthy if you make them in a healthy way. There is no point in eating salads if you are adding too much in your bowl. Even if they are fruits, veggies, and protein, they have calories. If you are taking the same amount of calories in your salad, as you were taking in your regular meal, you lose the purpose of eating salad.
In conclusion, the positive effects on your body by eating salads every day outweigh the negative ones. Salads are health builders. Also, with a bit of innovation, you can make your salad bowls interesting. Variety is fun and doesn't let you get bored with the same diet. We recommend you eating salad every day for a healthy, wealthy living.
Thank you for watching the video. Do let us know in the comments, what did you learn from this video? And are you planning to switch your meals to salads?
• What Happens to Your B...
I learned in this video that salads help with lowering your blood pressure, keeps you from being constipated regulates your bowls. Salads also help you loose weight. I'm going to start eating salads everyday.
Good luck :)
Hows it going
Updates?
Ummm...... yeah, you learn that in grade school. If you didn't know that then you really are either stupid or a 4 year old child.
@@jessicapearson9479 damn are you ok?
I eat two chunky salads and a bowl of oats a day. I eat a lot, and find that I’m craving it now. My mind and body is working so much more effectively now and I have way more energy.
Sounds great!
What do you put in your oats? And what kind of oats do you buy? I'm trying to better my eating habits. I love salads.
@@BIGNOSEPOPPA I don’t know what that guy puts in his oats, but I use old fashioned oats and make overnight oats breakfast ready to go with minimal cleanup. Low fat milk, real cinnamon, honey, a little vanilla, and blueberries. Preferably I eat 1-2 fried eggs as well seasoned with black pepper, red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper, a little oregano. Shazam
The oats pull you out of Ketosis & puts a halt in the health benefits.
May I ask, Why Oats??
I just bought the protein oats to help add more protein. Do you typically feel full?
I have been eating salads for a week now and my life has changed completely! So much more energy and cravings for sweet treats have gone
Have you lost any weight from it?
Wow! 3 days into eating salads- and yes, spinach, my body was sore like I had been lifting weights and now I know why!
Been eating salad every meal for 2 weeks now. I eat at 12 and at 8 and fast for 16 hours. My salad has Kale, spinach, a few kinds of lettuce, I use a hand full of each so it's quite large. Then I add cashews, hemp seeds, avocado, sunflower seeds, chia seeds, raisins, blueberries, 2 boiled eggs, a form of meat either steak, chicken, or fish. 4-6 ounces, and full fat ranch. I do take a multivitamin, a vitamin c and b complex. All this keeps me quite full and I feel as for a man it's necessary to add all this. I do concrete and construction for work and I have my own farm also, I have plenty of energy, actually I have more than ever. I've leaned up quite quickly. The intermentent fasting is amazing. The first few days you think your starving but one day your like dang man I ain't even hungry. The human body adapts quickly, and it's just so amazing. Oh to add on I'm almost 25, I don't know if this adds anything or not but age might or might not affect what you can or can't eat?
Been 3 weeks now roughly, still eat salads, but changed it up Abit. I may have Abit more meat or cook asparagus, broccoli, and a steak or chicken breast, then have a smaller salad with all my regular stuff in it, then have a large salad for the next meal of the day since I only eat twice. Actually I see an uptick in energy and fat lost in doing this. I assume it's because I'm not really restricting calories and my body isn't freaking out and going into conserve mode. Still staying away from unhealthy carbs not from vegetables.
@@colto8284 You are doing a great job! I also add nuts and seeds.
Egg whites...2 eggs is a days cholesterol. Ltr
Yes I been on this since Nov last year. I add cranberries. I'll def try the blueberries like you tho! Thanks for tips!
To stave off hunger you can do a protein shake..I decided to eat salads 🥗 only from now on..
Love that!
The Higher Consciousness you are, the less toxicity you allow in and around your body
Needed this message
Oooh snap. Maybes that’s why I’ve been a no BS person the last few days. I just can’t tolerate it as I use to and I’m seeing a lot more clearly.
I did this, & I have lost almost 58 pounds started it about 2 & 1/2 months ago feeling great
Congrats!!
Alot of it will be water weight
Wow that's incredible how are you now? Did you gain the weight or did you manage to maintain it
Wow keep it up
@@DusTheDicc did you work out with it
you can eat more salad than you can eat burgers. its very hard to gain weight eating salad. its hard to eat 1000 kcal of salad versus 1000 calories of burgers
It can be done easily.
four years I ve been eating salad with beans, pea's and lentils.
no problem at all
I eat salad damn near every day. And it has made a big difference!!!!! 😀😀😀💪💪💪
I've been eating a few pieces of fruit plus one big veggie salad within a 2 hour window each day. I am so full from it I don't even get hungry during my daily 22 hour fast. I'm only on day 4 but I love it and still not hungry.
Sounds great!
That's awesome‼️
Please give us an update as to how it's going 🙏
So every 2 hours you eat salad is that right I've started I've also started albran
@@leemandy2548 no she fasts for 22 hours and eats her salad within her two hour eating window
@@leemandy2548 🤣🤣
as a base for salad, one suggestion is to cut up and mix, in a big bowl:
raw broccoli
tomato
red onion
red pepper
cucumber
garbanzo beans
just snacking on those is amazingly tasty and energizing. adding some chicken, shredded cheese, tortilla chips or croutons, lettuce and dressing makes it a meal.
total counter to health but i guess its better than not eating salads
I starting eating salad’s yesterday and I was 105 pounds before now I’m 103
I'm 137 pounds. After quiting eating nothing but ramen, pizza, chilli, ECT and started eating healthy after eating like crap for years I lost weight. I only just started but I lost 6 pounds already. I have a lot more energy to at 25. When u eat clean u get benefits. Now did I quit eating junk. No I just restricted it to having some once every week on Friday. And I replaced most of my junk food with healthy alternatives. Such as dark chocolate for period days and pita chips instead of hot Cheetos or Doritos. Again I'm just starting so I'm slowly winging off of certain foods by replacing them with alternatives. My blood pressure went down too. It use to be 167-156 now it's down to a healthy level.
I’ve noticed that if something is good for me, I don’t want it. But if it’s bad for me, I want it. Why it gotta be like this? 😂
Lol.. Same here :)
Ok I was just making sure that it’s safe to eat just one meal that being a salad per day to lose weight fast. And once I reach my goal to maintain weight I will eat a salad for lunch and a small dinner. My goal is to lose about 60lbs and I’m going to just eat a salad for lunch, no breakfast no dinner. Get on a schedule of waking up at 9 and going to bed at 10. And exercising by doing workouts every day. And that’s how I plan to do it starting on Monday. Oh and weighing myself every day to. Wish me luck!
Good luck!
Check that your protein, fiber, vitamins, good fat, water consuming is right, otherwise can become weak within a week.
You need to be on a calorie deficit. Yes losing weight isn’t easy but it takes patience. You won’t lose weight overnight you’ll need protein, without it you’ll be weak like the person in the comment said…my granddad would tell me just eat half of what you eat and you’ll see the pounds slide right off
I am eating salads since one week and this video made my mind very clear that how to eat salad in proper way
Thank you.
I ate salads for a whole week and lost 7 pounds !
Great!
If you want to lose weight keep away from bread 🍞 potatoes and gravy and also sugar
eat salad 🥗 boiled eggs and ham , one meal a day ; And plenty of water 💧 and when you feel hungry
drink water or brush your teeth that will get rid of your hunger pang & also walk to the town centre instead of getting the bus
All these little tips worked for me so they will work for you " try it
if you don't like going to the gym (like me) this is the way to do it
1 week of salad, 1/4 of my tummy is lost.
I'm here because I been eating salads past 4 days and feel great already so just trying to find out some longterm benefits
just add more salad but still have ur "regular" or main food (with control of course) 🤷♀️
and I lost quite a few pounds. used to be at max 205.4 now I'm 195-196.4...something like that.
I’m switching to salad 🥗 this week day 1 for me 10/1/2020
Good luck :)
VisitJoy thanks 😇
Bee lovely Vegan Whipped Cream i started on wednesday . i m trying to go for 1 month
VisitJoy day 6 feeling good
Let us no how it working on day 26?
My stomach after 3 days felt like it’s been on fire, I’m constantly gassy and I feel like I have to vomit.
I'm starting this trend
I'm. Going be eating a salad every day for a whole
Month
I need this to save up money
This is why salad is my weakness.
I love salads and fruits! Ate them for a whole month straight and then crave for carbs! Had very little carbs of course! 😂
I have been having salad for almost every meal just with lettuce
I’ve added it to my diet to help me get the most vitamins. I include tuna, nuts, seeds, eggs and chicken for protein. I try to fast in the Am too so then my first meal is healthy. I’ve added more fruits for the fiber as well. My dinner is then protein, complex carb like sweet potatoes and another vegetable. I want to add exercise to help speed up fat loss.
My current breakfast for the past two weeks since I was told I have a type 1 fatty liver;
Spinach and/or iceberg lettuce/salad leaves
sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds
3 x boiled eggs,
Depending which day a mixture of;
Avocado
Cucumber
Fermented cabbbage
Asparagus
Red pepper
Courgette
With a splash of Olive Oil on top
Add Beetroot, Grated Carrot or Pine nuts for a sweeter flavour
I felt hungry the first two weeks but your body definitely adjusts and I no longer feel hungry after eating meals.
If you load up your salads with a lot of cheese, fat, dressing, bacon, nuts and fruit you might as well have a steak or a big Mac because of all the calories in it.
One of my know eating only eating sadal from 1.5 month .and loose 11 kg
Thanks 😎
I love salad me and my grandpa my grandma and my dad in my brother
We've always eaten salad! Starting this soon.
Good luck!
@@VisitJoy Fingers crossed I've hit a weight loss wall, I need restart.
The kardashians making me want to eat salads
they make me doubt humanity in general, but salad?
Girl they got fake plastic in them
Awesome. Great salads. Magical 👍❤️😊😍🙏😘💯
Thanks
@@VisitJoy awesome. Thanks. Let's stay connected 👍🙏😊💯❤️💕💪
I’ve switched and I love it!
I'm a truck driver young 28. Since I've been driving I gained weight now on a salad diet will this work to loose weight? What's a good salad?
A good salad is a mixture of vegetables and greens. No salad dressings and salt. You can use a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil instead of salad dressings.
@@VisitJoy hold on , is u gone gain the weight back ?
@@bammerspammer9989 prob not since ur eating real food and not just drinking water
Or Apple Cider Vinegar, or lemon juice, or mustard as a dressing. And yes to your question, eat 1 salad per day maybe for lunch (that is not drenched in oil, which is 120 calories per tablespoon) for a month and get a scale (something like the RENPHO Body Fat Scale Smart BMI Scale Digital Bathroom Wireless Weight Scale, $20) and track your progress for that month; then find out for yourself.
Try Arugula, Baby Spinach, Shredded Cabbage, or Baby Kale as a salad base, you can never eat too much of these greens. Add a can of black beans (drained and rinsed preferably) or any kind of beans (Garbanzo, Lentils, Split Peas, Cannellini). Add, preferably raw Onions, add seeds (chia, flax, pumpkin, hemp, walnuts etc.). If you want more protein, add some baked chicken, or hard boiled eggs, or tuna, or another protein source. Throw in some cooked mushrooms too. Loaded with fiber so it should keep you full, and absolutely loaded with micronutrients to fuel your brain, organs, blood, and keep you alert.
Just eat more greens. But still have ur main meal. And of course portion control. And some exercise won't hurt .sadly we gotta be real. I lost a few pounds. And in my salad I use the ones that walmart has, mixed and comes in those clear boxes? And itilian dressing, I throw in some sliced eggs in them... mandarins. Sometimes I do it with tuna or chicken. Salad taste pretty awesome ..unlike the ones in school for lunch, I remember those 🤮
Very helpful. Thanks. For. The. Video
Glad it was helpful!
All I do is add salad to my meals so it’s balanced.
Great!
Reduces washing up!
Very. Helpful. Thanks. For. Video
So nice of you
Thanks for information ☺️
Welcome 😊
My goal is to lose more than or atleast 5kg of fat from body.
Is only lettuce with milk oats and honey diet going to help and how long should I be expected to be patient ?
Plz tell salad increase hunger also bcoz eating salad incerase my hunger alot
What are Vit a mins ?
🙏🏻
I love this video👀
Thank you 😊
So I been eating salads but I keep craving more like 3 a day .Is something wrong or is this normal ?
This is normal. Your body will adjust in due time.
Iam finding very difficulty to eat salad every day
Amy suggestions for me how should I keep eating continuesly
I understand. You cannot eat the same thing everyday. You should try to change the salad. You can also experiment by adding some fruits.
Add roasted peanuts or at times some paneer to it
Maybe you do not know how to make a proper salad? Salads can be diversified. Try incorporating many different ingredients. You can add boiled eggs, anchovies, tomatoes, grated carrots, quinoa, soba noodles, croutons, chicken etc... Greens should be the main ingredients and you can add a little bit of anything else, mix everything together and voilà, you have a salad. Use ingredients you like but stay away from unhealthy ones of course.
I like her accent lol
Samee
I get phone call credit card scam vibes
So what's so bad about her accent you don't need to be rude I respect her accent and you should too 🥰
@@lailaal-mamouri8106 ?! He literally said he likes it
@@WLWLWLW they were talking to the person above them
I eat the same salad everyday and never got bored. You wanna know how? You want to know the secret?
Salad is complementary meaning I mix it with the food I eat. For example, If I am eating chicken and rice, every spoon must contain a chicken, rice and salad.
Great Idea!
For 2024 i want to switch to a diet of oatmeal salad for EVERY MEAL 😋
Vee can do this.
Deez.
😂
👍🏽🌃🤣
Nice 😋
Thank you.
Craving far more is not a con...that’s subjective and a false fact...it’s the same thing as saying Diet Coke is bad because you MIGHT want sweets...it’s a subjective false fact
Hey, thanks for your excellent comment. Please allow me to clear the meaning. "Craving for more" is a con means if someone eats only salads every day, they may get bored with it, and the probability of them getting tempted to eat unhealthy but tasty food may be increased.
So the con is referring to "eating ONLY salad every day." The salad itself is not a con, unlike diet coke, which is bad whether you drink it occasionally or every day.
Moreover, "false fact" is considered an oxymoron.
If your eating only salads everyday then you do not have a healthy diet. Yes, salads are good for you but not if that is only what you eat.
@@jessicapearson9479 why?
Everyday at least one time I eat a salad
Healthy food is expensive
I was 230 pounds and I lost 130 pounds ❤🍉🍋🍌🍍🍎🍑🫐🥬🍅🥥🥑🥕🧄🥦🥒🫘🥜
Great !
Vit.oh.mens.
Eat carbs every 4 days then
Whole January 2024 high fat salads, low sugar vegan P shakes, and (veggie) cabbage stir frys.
What about abs does it give us abs
Girl
Popeye didn’t get bigger biceps those are forearms
😂😂😂😂
Hahah salads key to fitness hahahahahhaha
Hahaha.. Yes... Hahaha haha...
Had this kind of diet before for at least 4 months its more an imposed diet and away from internet for 3 months its a nice feeling all over , and I was really dying to eat fastfood I ate a burger,fried chicken,french fries and a cold coke to wash it down. Its better than sex , those fried skin chicken are just so good and the burger was so bad , but its so damn delicious and the feeling washing it down with a cold coke was just so so unforgetable. never have a threesome , but I bet its not that good compare to that meal.
How can we gain weight with salad .. everyone post eating healthy videos for losing weight not gaining 😢
You don't wanna gain trust me.... It's good to be underweight rather than overweight
No it didn't help with my question
What was your question?
the only way to actually lose weight is fasting
No it's not.
I cant take this videos serious w this voice lol
These advices are most probably not correct! Stating that seed oils are good fats has been known for a long time to be false!
The accent is painful
Surprise surprise not everyone speaks English as a first language 😐
@@milouramichel1742 lol
I think it’s lovely.
There's things people eat I turn my salad in to a drink. Ya it doesn't look sexy are good but I add lime are lemon instead of dressing kale and spinach . So ya I eat a salad daily but it's turned into a protein drink . How it looks is why you will eat it cause you pick a tomato a few pieces of lettuce a cucumber with you're choice of dressing I just throw it all in with one lime are lemon and drink it . I cut out the dressing cause that's were the oil is at are some bad things our body should not have. 🫁❤️🧠 just cause if you do it why Im learning it should all be measured out to a person body and why knowing why it cost more for better health foods .
