Best Dinners for Reducing False Fat

Wednesday, June 17, 2009 by Kimberly Day

I don’t know about you, but about 4pm, I start thinking about what I’m going to make for dinner. Sometimes this is a fun proposition, but other times it gives me a pounding headache. Then, when you throw in the need for the meal to be anti-inflammatory and “false fat friendly,” that headache feels more like a migraine.

Fortunately, some of the most delicious and easy-to-prepare foods don't trigger false fat...plus, they are low in saturated fat and calories. Choose from any of the vegetables, proteins, and grains listed below and dinnertime can be fun and healthy once again!

If you really want to up the anti-inflammatory benefits of your supper, enjoy a cup of steaming decaf green tea with ginger or decaf chocolate mint tea for “dessert.” Yum!
