What foods have low calories?
When it comes to low calorie foods, think vibrant, nutrient-packed and naturally satisfying. Leafy greens like spinach and kale are rich in vitamins and antioxidants while being very low in calories, making them ideal for salads or a green boost to any meal. Crisp and hydrating vegetables like cucumbers, courgette and bell peppers are perfect for low calorie snacks. When it comes to natural sweetness, reach for berries, apples and citrus fruits, which ensure that you get fibre and essential nutrients into your diet, without the added sugars. Lean proteins like chicken breast, tofu and legumes are also protein-rich, low calorie options.
