He is the star doctor of the moment, and it is impossible to miss the phenomenon. Not a day goes by without coming across a video of the doctor who replaced in (France 5), on Instagram. Content in which the dr. gives his wonderful advice, always good to take. The recipe takes since the author of Zero constraints to stay youngis followed by more than 1.7 million subscribers on Instagram and 1.8 million on TikTok. When it is not on social networks or on RTL or even on the small screen that Jimmy Mohamed brings you his knowledge, it is within his various works. Books that you could slip under the tree of a loved one you wish well. And in Zero constraints to lose weight (ed. Flammarion), the doctor, father of three children, fruits of his love affair with , shares with us some information that should please you: the appetite suppressant fruit.
And it’s about the apple. “Unlike cakes and other sweets that can be devoured in three bites, it takes time to eat an apple. We will have to chew for several minutes, which will promote the feeling of satiety. Remember that this chemical message of satiety only arrives about twenty to thirty minutes after a mealsays Jimmy Mohamed. When we eat an apple, our brain quietly understands that we are filling our stomach. So, eating an apple allows us, through the simple mechanical action of chewing, to suppress our appetite.“And it doesn’t stop there. In fact, the fruit is full of properties that will leave you dreaming.”That’s not all: the fiber contained in an apple will form a sort of gel in the stomach, in turn promoting satiety.he continues. It is therefore a double win: the apple cuts the appetite and does not make you gain weight.“
What is the secret of the fiber found in apples? Jimmy Mohamed tells you everything
In addition to being a double winner, and perhaps a triple winner if you are one of the many people who appreciate this fruit, again that’s not all. In his work, the 36-year-old scientist reports that pectin, “fiber found in apple skin and seeds“, but also in other vegetables such as green beans or in certain food supplements. Regarding this fiber, Dr. Jimmy Mohamed explains: “Pectin passes through the digestive tract and is digested by the bacteria of our microbiota or intestinal flora. These bacteria in the digestive tract love pectin just as much as a child loves and feeds on candy; it therefore acts, in a way, like a prebiotic“. This pectin has “extraordinary powers“on our digestive tract.”It modifies the composition of the mucus at the level of the digestive wall, that is to say digestive secretions; it increases the immune system and makes the digestive tract less permeable to toxins. More generally, this fiber also has anti-inflammatory properties“, he writes.
Be careful not to overuse it though. THE “Pure Parisian” exiled in Yvelines made some revelations on the effects of too much pectin on the body. “Car there are harmful side effects of adding too much pectin to your body : the digestion capacities of our microbiota bacteria will be exceeded, causing a call for water and fermentation. We therefore risk, it is true, some bloating and gas, unpleasant, but without consequences on our health.“, shares Jimmy Mohamed.
