The hormones in dairy, meat, and poultry raise estrogen levels, which can cause you to hold onto body fat. The pesticides on nonorganic fruits and veggies also inhibit hormonal activity in the body, leading to weight gain.
Another no-no: Anything that’s processed or packaged, since it’s often laden with preservatives and salt.
Eat as simply as possible—for example, have just a plain chicken breast sautéed in a little lemon juice to add some flavor.
If at all possible buy your produce at a local farmer's market or health food type of store... but even better, start your own garden!
