Most Effective Weight Loss Foods: Growing And Eating Yacon And Winged Bean

Instead of yacon syrup, you should eat the yacon root which is of high water content. The yacon plant comes equipped with 2 sets of roots - larger ones for you to eat, smaller ones for planting. With roots and leaves full of antioxidants, the yacon is a most nutritious addition, especially to the diet of diabetics and weight-watchers. Another easy to plant vegetable is a legume, the winged bean; with its high protein supply. What makes it so worthwhile to grow is that every part of this plant is edible and delicious. The winged bean, rich in proteins, vitamins and minerals, offers a solution to countries with problems of malnutrition. More specifically, the young pods are an excellent way of replenishing your folate supply; the young leaves, for vitamins A and C and fiber, while the tubers, for proteins and vitamin B. Low in calories and cholesterol, these beans are so airy-fairy light to the point of being unsubstantial.
