The sunshine vitamin affects us more than we previously thought. Vitamin D makes you both more energetic, happier - and slimmer, a new research shows.
 
In 2008, researchers at University of Minnesota made 38 people who were all overweight eat according to a precarious nutrition program for eleven weeks. Every day the participants ate 750 calories less than the recommended daily intake, and of course everyone lost weight. But those who had high levels of vitamin D in their blood at the beginning of this research had a much more efficient weight loss. They lost up to 70% more fat than the other participants.
 
With this background, "the vitamin D diet" developed. A method that briefly contains of you eating vitamin D combined with five other fatburning catalysts (read about them under the picture ↓). By including these key ingredients in your diet the body's fat burning process will constantly be at full speed, according to the authors of the book The Vitamin D Diet.
 
Being outdoors in the sun is the easiest way to fill up with vitamin D. You can also eat fatty fish (like salmon), eggs and enriched dairy products like milk to increase your vitamin D intake.
 
THE OTHER FIVE FATBURNING CATALYSTS:
CALCIUM
This important mineral is a real sidekick to vitamin D, because together they turn up your metabolism a level. Calcium is in fact naturally in the fat cells, and studies show that the more calcium a cell has, the more fat it can let go of. Furthermore, calcium can bind fat and thus prevent the body from absorbing it at all.
Can be found in: Dairy products
 
PROTEIN
If you consume foods high in protein you can be sure that your muscle mass will be kept intact at weight loss. Protein satiates and helps the body to balance the amount of fat versus muscles effectively. Muscles require more energy than fat, so in the long term a percentage conversion of fat to muscle have a strong effect on your metabolism. Women who eat protein twice a day loose on average 4% more fat than women who doesn't, according a study at University of Illinois.
Can be found in: Meat, fish, tofu
 
OMEGA-3
This fatty acid facilitates weight loss by triggering fat burning enzymes. Omega-3 also has an effect on your mood, something that researches believe prevents us from bingeing. Studies have also shown that omega-3 can increase the body's production of leptin, a substance that regulates appetite and turn up the fat burning process. Most foods that are high in vitamin D also contains omega-3.
Can be found in: Salmon, nuts and seeds
 
MONOUNSATURATED FATS
This type of fat has an ability to stabilize blood sugar levels and reduce appetite. Monounsaturated fats also tend to counteract the harmful abdominal fat. A Danish study also shows that this type of fat can turn up the fat burning process.
Can be found in: Olive oil, nuts, seeds, avocado and chocolate
 
CLA - Conjugated Linoleic Acid
CLA is found naturally in meat and dairy products. This fatty acid prevents the body to absorb fat from food while benefiting from the release of hormones that promote fat burning.
Can be found in: Meat from cattle and dairy products.
