Pears
The secret to grasping the slimming benefits of pears is eating their skin as well as their inner flesh. A pear’s peel is bursting with an appetite-crushing soluble fibre called pectin, which puts hunger pangs to rest and lowers your blood sugar levels, making you less likely to reach for a calorie-laden snack.

"Paired with a bit of protein, such as a small handful of nuts or some yogurt, pears make for a stellar satiating snack," says Remmer.
