Agriculture Secretary Dennis C Wolff announced the results of a Brazilian study that reported add ing apples or pears to the diet may help women lose weight faster. “As anyone who has struggled to lose weight knows, finding ways to shed pounds is often frustrating,” Secretary Wolff said. “This study provides a tasty, yet healthy way to lose weight.” In a recent study, researchers at the State University of Rio de Janei- lAvanti Garelli X-treme Li’l Critter 90cc Dirt Bike I ■ Lancaster Farming, Saturday, May 10, 2003-811 1 pint flour Va cup sugar 1 teaspoon baking soda Va teaspoon salt Va cup cooked raisins Chewy Granola Bars V* cup brown sugar Vs cup peanut butter Va cup honey Va cup margarine, melted 2 teaspoons vanilla . 3 cups quick oatmeal Va cup coconut Va cup sunflower nuts Va cup raisins Vs cup wheat germ 2 tablespoons sesame seeds 1 cup chocolate chips ro found that overweight women who ate three small pears or apples per day lost more weight on a low calorie diet than those who did not eat fruit. Researchers also found that those eating fruit consumed fewer calories and thus helped their weight loss efforts. For 12 weeks, overweight women with high cholesterol ate a stan dardized, low-calorie diet. Partici pants either ate 300 grams of apple, 300 grams of pear, or 60 grams of oat cookie three times per day. 4 Wheeler r* A Those that ate fruit lost more weight, consumed fewer calories, and had lower blood glucose lev els than those con suming oat cookies. The study also sug gested that as “low ener gy-density” foods, fruits have a lower calorie count compared to other non-fruit foods. In addi tion, by eating foods high in fiber, people feel more satisfied and less likely to indulge in more snacks after a high-fiber meal. Apples and pears are excellent sources of dietary fiber, containing five grams and four grams of fiber respec tively per each medium sized fruit. This study is good news for the thousands of women across the Commonwealth strug gling to lose weight. “We have always known that Pennsylva nia’s produce is ‘Simply Delicious,’ but now we know that our apples can help contribute to weight loss as well,” said Secretary Wolff.
