BERRIES' SLIMMING SECRET: ANTHOCYANINS
+ Block fat formation
The bright color of berries comes from anthocyanins, plant compounds that help tamp down fat-forming inflammation and oxidative stress. In fact, Chinese researchers found that mice on a high-fat diet that were given the compounds daily gained up to 55% less weight.
+Balance blood sugar
Regularly consuming anthocyanins improved cells' sensitivity to the blood sugar-regulating hormone insulin for 67% of people, according to researchers from Louisiana State University. This wards off the blood-sugar fluctuations that lead to fatigue, mood swings, cravings and weight gain.
+Melt belly fat
The rich stores of anthocyanins in berries ramp up the production of lipase, a pancreatic enzyme that Cleveland Clinic investigators discovered helps the body break down belly fat for fuel. The outcome? You'll trim up to 3 inches off your waist in just one month if you enjoy berries daily!
