(daily mail) 一天一碗汤，脂肪减光光。 健康专家发现，在吃正餐之前喝一碗低热量的蔬菜汤有助于减轻体重。 因为喝汤会让你很快觉得饱了，所以正餐就能少吃点。 由宾夕法尼亚州立大学的芭芭拉·罗尔斯博士带领的一组研究人员对这种喝汤减肥法进行了测试。 他们发现，与那些饭前不喝汤的人相比，如果研究对象在午餐前先喝了一碗汤，他们这顿饭所摄入的总热量就会减少20%。 但喜欢喝带有奶油成分的汤的人得注意。研究人员强调，这种汤的热量必须低，要以汤为主要原料，而不是奶油。 研究中用于测试的所有汤原料都相同--鸡汤、菜花、马铃薯、花椰菜和胡萝卜。 之后，这些原料被混合调制成四种不同质地、不同浓度的汤，包括纯汤、蔬菜汤及浓汤等几种类型。 科学家认为，由于用大片蔬菜熬制而成的浓汤需要咀嚼，可能更容易让人产生饱意，但令他们惊讶的是，他们发现所有类型的汤功效都一样。 这些研究结果在华盛顿实验生物学研讨会上公布。此项研究的部分资金由国立卫生研究院提供。
