Cooking researcher Lee Hye-jung (67) revealed her own diet lunchbox.

On the 10th, on TV Chosun's 'Healthy Home 2', cooking researcher Lee Hye-jung appeared and talked about the diet she ate during her weight loss. Lee Hye-jung said, "I was diagnosed with stroke, high blood pressure, and early diabetes by the hospital." She continued, "Worried about my vascular health, I decided to go on a diet," and added, "I carry and eat a steamed vegetable and sweet potato lunchbox." Lee Hye-jung successfully lost 20 kg using this method. The lunchbox she revealed contained steamed carrots, sweet pumpkin, and boiled eggs. We took a closer look at the effects of the ingredients in Lee Hye-jung's lunchbox.

▷Carrots=Carrots are low in calories and rich in dietary fiber, making them good for dieting. In particular, carrots help replenish morning energy. This is because carrots are rich in nutrients such as vitamins and fiber. The skin of carrots contains a high amount of beta-carotene, a representative nutrient of carrots. Beta-carotene is converted into vitamin A when absorbed into the body, and vitamin A helps maintain skin cells and promotes sebum and sweat secretion, allowing for soft and smooth skin. In addition, carrots are good for hair care. The abundant vitamin A in carrots promotes moisture supply, preventing hair from becoming dry.

 

▷Sweet pumpkin = Sweet pumpkin has a low calorie content of about 30 kcal per 100g. It is rich in dietary fiber, which helps promote bowel movements, and even a small amount can make you feel full. Additionally, sweet pumpkin has high levels of vitamins A and C, which help relieve fatigue and prevent aging. The beta-carotene and vitamin E in sweet pumpkin help keep nerve tissues healthy. It is best to steam and eat sweet pumpkin like Lee Hye-jung. When steaming sweet pumpkin, cooking it with the skin on allows you to consume phenolic acids, powerful antioxidants found in the pumpkin skin. This can also help prevent cardiovascular diseases and aging. Phenolic acids are only present in the skin and not in the flesh.

 

▷Eggs = The vitamin B12, vitamin D, and choline found in the yolk of eggs play an important role in converting food into energy that our body can use. In particular, eating boiled eggs provides protein and healthy fats, which help you feel full. Therefore, eating eggs can be helpful during a diet. Choline, which is abundant in eggs, is used in the body to produce cell membranes and important neurotransmitters. Choline plays a crucial role in enhancing memory. One egg contains about 6% of the daily recommended intake of choline.
