17 Foods You Can Eat at Any Time and in Any Quantity

It’s so hard to resist cravings for tasty food when you’re on a strict diet. Let’s be honest! You feel hungry all the time, and when you open the fridge door, it’s almost impossible to fight the temptation to grab something delicious. However, there are products you can eat during the day without risk of gaining weight as they contain a minimum amount of calories.

We at Bright Side decided to figure out which foods you can eat without restrictions.

Celery

Approximately 95% of celery is water. This super healthy product contains 30% of your daily requirement of vitamin K. It’s best to eat celery when it’s fresh as it loses most of its useful properties within five days of cutting.

Arugula

There are only 10 kcal in 2 cups of arugula. It helps you get slimmer without damaging your health. You can combine arugula with white cheese and season it with olive oil.

Egg whites

You can eat egg whites in vast quantities. It’s even useful for those who follow a strict diet. Mix the whites with a few tomatoes and get the healthiest omelet ever! However, if you care about your figure it’s better not to fry it in oil.

Salad

Salad is packed with vitamins A and C as well as folic acid and iron. It’s practically devoid of calories, so its consumption in large quantities won’t cause any weight gain.

Cucumbers

Cucumbers contain almost the same amount of water as celery. Fresh crunchy cucumbers have significant health benefits. The skin of a cucumber contains most of its nutritional value, particularly beta-carotene, which is good for your eyes. So it’s better not to peel them.

Cauliflower

Cauliflower is an excellent source of vitamins C and K. It’s most nutritious when eaten raw.

Tomatoes

Tomatoes are full of lycopene, vitamins A, C, and B2, folic acid, fiber, chromium, and potassium. They are practically devoid of calories and provide us with various nutrients vital for our health.

Broccoli

Broccoli is the favorite food of those who’re losing weight. Apart from vitamins A, C, E, and K, it contains approximately 20% of your daily fiber requirement.

Popcorn

One cup of air-popped popcorn will never affect your body. This "movie" snack mostly consists of air, and you can enjoy eating it without fear of gaining extra weight.

Kale

Kale, like any other edible seaweed, contains a large amount of iodine and it’s almost devoid of calories. But it doesn’t mean you should rush to make sushi with seaweed. Remember that rice has a high glycemic index, and such products don’t contribute to rapid weight loss.

Sugar snap peas

Sugar snap peas are very low in calories: a cup of peas contains around 35 kcal. They’re quite rich both in fiber and protein.

Grapefruit

Grapefruits help to stabilize blood sugar levels.They’re full of vitamin C, and, due to their low caloric value, they can help you reduce those extra inches around your waist.

Melon

Melon will satisfy your sweet tooth without blowing your diet. It contains over half the recommended daily value of vitamins A and C.

Strawberries

Another indispensable product for all those losing weight. Strawberries are rich in potassium and fiber and have an anti-inflammatory effect.

Blackberries

Blackberries are full of antioxidants and vitamin C. Plus, they have an amazing taste. They’re safe even for those who have been on a diet for a long time. The caloric content of the product is relatively low.

Oranges

Oranges are one of the most delicious fruits. They are best known for their vitamin C content. By the way, the white stuff under the orange skin, the pith, contains a lot of fiber, which helps to lower cholesterol. So it’s better not to take pith off the orange.

Blueberries

Blueberries have more antioxidants than any other fruit. Therefore, a cup of blueberries will help you balance your diet. This food is light in calories, so you don’t have to worry about the risk of gaining weight.
