Model-turned-actor Ahn Jae-hyun shared his secret to maintaining his body.
In the video released on YouTube’s ‘Fairy Jaehyung’ on the 25th, Ahn Jae-hyun appeared as a guest and talked about various things with Jung Jae-hyung.
On this day, when Jeong Jae-hyung asked, “Do you cook?” Ahn Jae-hyun responded, “I did, but at some point we became distant. “I ended up ordering it and eating it,” he replied. He said, “I love eating. “That’s why it was so difficult to work as a model,” he said, confessing his struggles with maintaining his body.
Jeong Jae-hyung sympathized and said, “When I said that I have been feeling hungry lately and need to control what I eat, he (Ahn Jae-hyun) said, ‘Brother, then eat cherry tomatoes first before eating.’” He shared the method that Ahn Jae-hyun gave him.
Cherry tomatoes are low in calories and sugar, making them suitable as a diet food.
Cherry tomatoes recommended by Jaehyun Ahn are low in calories and sugar and are easy to carry, so they are a diet food that can be easily eaten anytime, anywhere. The calories of cherry tomatoes are about 16 kcal per 100g, and they are high in dietary fiber and pectin, which increases satiety and helps with weight loss and constipation.
It also contains vitamins A, B1, B2, C, and folic acid, so it is good for relieving fatigue and boosting immunity. It is also rich in lycopene, an antioxidant that contributes to lowering the incidence of vascular disease by suppressing bad cholesterol (LDL) in the blood.
Eating fruits and vegetables before meals increases satiety and helps control blood sugar levels.
As Jaehyun Ahn recommends, consuming cherry tomatoes before a meal increases satiety and prevents overeating. Additionally, the rich dietary fiber in cherry tomatoes delays carbohydrate absorption in the gastrointestinal tract and suppresses the rise in blood sugar levels. This effect can be achieved not only with cherry tomatoes, but with any vegetable rich in dietary fiber.
According to a study by Japanese researchers published in the international journal Nutrients in 2020, when vegetables were eaten first, the level of satiety hormone (GLP-1) was higher than before. Additionally, in an experiment conducted by researchers at Cornell University, the group that ate fruit first consumed fewer total calories and were less tempted to eat high-calorie foods than the group that ate bacon or eggs first.
There are also related studies targeting diabetic patients. According to a 2011 paper by researchers at Osaka Prefecture University in Japan, type 2 diabetes patients who consumed vegetables first during meals for two years had significantly improved blood sugar control compared to the control group.
However, because cherry tomatoes contain acidic ingredients, it is best to refrain from consuming them if you suffer from reflux esophagitis. In addition, even if you consume enough fruits or vegetables before meals, it is difficult to see a weight loss effect if your daily calorie intake exceeds 2000-2500 kcal, which is the recommended daily calorie for adults.
