'Big eater' Lim Ji-yeon, during dieting, eats 'this' instead of snacks... Also makes skin smooth?

Actress Im Ji-yeon (34), known for her big appetite, introduced the food she eats while managing her diet.

"I love nuts so much that I always carry them with me and eat them even in the car," she said, "I replace snacks with them when managing my diet." She also mentioned, "I sprinkle granola on Greek yogurt and eat it as a meal," and "On days when I really shouldn't eat, I have a sweet craving and eat it as a snack." Im Ji-yeon has previously revealed that she can eat five packs of ramen alone, indicating she is a big eater. Despite being a big eater, Im Ji-yeon maintains a slim body, and we take a closer look at the foods she eats.

 

▷Nuts

Nuts contain a large amount of unsaturated fatty acids, plant-based proteins, and dietary fibers, which are good for the body. According to a study by the University of South Australia, adding nuts to your diet during a diet can enhance weight loss effects. They are also good for the skin. According to research by the World Cyber University on medicinal health foods, people who ate nuts three or more times a week had smaller skin pores compared to those who did not. The rich unsaturated fatty acids in nuts help improve the function of the skin's stratum corneum, reducing pore size and maintaining smooth skin texture. However, eating too many nuts can cause gastrointestinal discomfort. It is advisable to consume most nuts within a daily amount of one handful (about 30 grams).

 

▷Granola

Granola is made from whole grains and is rich in dietary fiber, protein, and vitamins, but it also has high calories and sugar content. This is because sugar, oil, and other ingredients are added during the manufacturing process to enhance flavor and texture. A 50g serving of granola containing 8.5g of sugar is equivalent in calories to a donut with jam or cream. Therefore, it is advisable to choose granola with minimal sugar and to eat it with plain yogurt, nuts, seeds, or other sources of healthy fats to maintain a balanced nutrition.

 

Greek yogurt

Greek yogurt is yogurt fermented from raw milk without artificial additives, originating from the Greek Mediterranean coast. In Korea, it is usually made by removing whey and leaving only the protein mass. Therefore, 100g of Greek yogurt contains about 14g of protein and rich fats, which are digested more slowly compared to carbohydrates. As a result, it provides a long-lasting feeling of fullness. This is why Greek yogurt is popular among people on a diet. In fact, a study from Harvard University in the United States found that groups consuming high-protein meals including Greek yogurt experienced a reduction in body fat compared to groups consuming low-protein meals. However, to effectively benefit from Greek yogurt for dieting, it is important to choose products with low sugar content and high probiotic counts. Additionally, topping Greek yogurt with various fruits like blueberries can help supplement a variety of vitamins and minerals.
