If you are looking to lose weight, eat some more egg whites. The high protein content in egg whites will help control your calorie intake and this gradually helps you lose weight. Besides this, the protein is required for maintaining muscle mass and helps perform bodily functions. As egg whites do not contain trans-fats, consuming them will promote your cardiac health and lowers your cholesterol levels. Fat free milk, on the other hand, has essential nutrients and is rich in calcium. Bell peppers contain less calories and are sure to provide your daily quota of vitamin C and A.
