How To Add Flavor Without The Calories to Any Food

December 22, 2010 by drfitnessandthefatguy

In today’s Wellness Minute Dr Fitness and the Fat Guy explain how to add flavor to your food without adding calories. Healthy food can taste bland so here are some tricks to add flavor without that many calories. Discover balsamic vinegar – you can forget the oil when you use this vinegar – use it on salads and subs and sandwiches. Mustard adds flavor without that many calories if you are going to use a condiment. Cinnamon is a great substitute for sugar – try it on oatmeal, – it has been shown to stabilize blood sugar levels as well. Chicken broth for butter works in some recipes so try that to save calories. And go nuts with the salt free seasonings instead of salt – this won’t save you calories but it is more heart healthy. Listen right now to hear Dr Fitness’ tips.
