Fish
Choose from non-fatty white meat fish such as trout, carp or occasionally wild salmon (my favorite). Oily fish are rich in essential fatty acids, and are very good for regulating hormone and blood sugar levels.
Nuts and seeds
Nuts and seeds are good. They contain a lot of essential fatty acids, or good fats. When you eat a lot of essential fatty acids, you won't put on weight easily - they even help you lose weight.
Nuts and seeds contain a powerhouse good stuff - the full profile of amino acids, vitamin A,B,C and E and the minerals calcium, magnesium, potassium, zinc, iron, selenium and manganese. Sunflower seeds, flax seeds, alfafa seeds, pumpkin seeds, almons, chestnuts, cashews, pecans, brazil nuts and walnuts are good.
Nuts and seeds are so nutrient-dense, so you do not need to eat a lot of them. - a teaspoon a day would be more than enough. I sprinkle them on breakfast cereals or my oats. Some people use them in cooking as garnishes or to flavour a gourmet dish.
