Let’s review some of the lesser-known superfoods.

Seaweed

Have you ever tried to lose weight but don’t achieve your goals no matter how many calories you cut? There may be an underlying cause: your thyroid. Iodine fuels and activates your thyroid; if your levels are even slightly off, your thyroid will become sluggish. However, incorporating seaweed into your diet may help. It’s the single greatest source of iodine out there.

Sardines

Some people enjoy sardines on a Caesar salad. They’re delicious straight out of the can, on crackers, in salads, or however you like. However, what makes these fish “super” isn’t their versatility. They’re packed with Omega-3 fatty acids and an excellent low-calorie protein source. In short, they keep you fuller for longer to keep you from snacking between meals.

Moringa

Moringa is a nutrient-dense superfood that can help to curb your appetite, leaving you fuller for longer. Get it in powder form and add it to your smoothie in the morning to kickstart your day. Or add it to almost anything on the menu, from stews to pasta and soups, to boost your diet.

Cinnamon

When your blood sugar levels spike, you get hungry. So, how do you curb your snacking and stop your levels from spiking? By adding cinnamon to your diet, of course.

Make a hot cup of water with lemon, honey, paprika, and cinnamon, and drink it every morning before you eat anything. This simple “tea” can help you start the day on the right foot and keep your appetite even throughout the day.
