Can weight loss be achieved by eating large bones

During weight loss, it is recommended to consume a moderate amount of Da Gu Tang, but it is important to pay attention to the cooking method and intake. Da Gu Tang is rich in collagen and minerals, but has a high fat content. The main influencing factors include the degree of bone marrow fat precipitation, cooking time, ingredient pairing, eating frequency, and individual metabolic differences.

1. Bone marrow fat control:

When boiling large bones, a large amount of saturated fat in the bone marrow will dissolve into the soup. It is recommended to blanch and skim off the foam before stewing, or refrigerate to remove the surface solidified fat. Every 100 grams of pork bone soup contains about 5-8 grams of fat, equivalent to half a tablespoon of cooking oil.

2. Cooking time control:

Long term cooking will dissolve more fat and purines. The recommended time for weight loss is 1-2 hours, which can reduce fat intake by more than 30% compared to traditional 4-6 hour Lao Huo Tang. Using a pressure cooker can shorten the time while preserving nutrients.

3. Scientific combination of ingredients:

It is recommended to cook with fiber rich ingredients such as white radish and kelp, which can increase satiety and absorb some oil. Avoid adding high starch side dishes such as potatoes and yams, as they can easily cause excessive calorie intake.

4. Eating frequency management:

It is advisable to drink 2-3 times a week, with no more than 200 milliliters per time. The best time to consume is during lunchtime, with plenty of green leafy vegetables to avoid adding metabolic burden when consumed at night.

5. Individual difference adjustment:

People with high basal metabolic rate can increase their intake appropriately, while insulin resistant individuals need to strictly control it. Gout patients should avoid drinking it, and obese individuals with hyperuricemia are recommended to choose clear soup after fat removal. When drinking Da Gu Tang during weight loss, it is recommended to combine it with 30 minutes of aerobic exercise to help metabolize fat, such as brisk walking or swimming. It can be made into chilled bone broth jelly as a protein supplement, replacing some high calorie snacks. Pay attention to weight changes, and if there is a plateau period for two consecutive weeks, discontinue consumption. At the same time, maintain a daily water intake of at least 2000 milliliters to promote purine metabolism. For people who need to strictly control their calorie intake, homemade low-fat and high protein soup made from chicken breast and agar can be used as a substitute.
