    It's no secret that fruit is a smart part of a healthy diet. They are likely to be better for you than any other food. But is all fruit created equal?Let's find out which fruits are the best if you're looking to lose weight.

    Apples are a common favourite. They're the finest snack: filling, juicy, crunchy(易碎的),and easy to take along. Studies have even shown that eating three apples per day can help with weight loss.

    There are plenty of ways to eat apples:Chow down on a whole apple, add apple pieces to your meal, throw apple balls into a salad, bake some with your chicken, or cook up a low-calorie dessert.

    Watermelon is low in calories with high water content. This means you can eat two entire cups of watermelon for less than 100 calories and your stomach will feel like you've eaten more because the fruit is more than 90 percent water. This way, you'll avoid higher-calorie foods and satisfy your sweet tooth.

    Raspberries are small but powerful!These babies are low in calories and even lower when you consider that they're high in indigestible(可消化的) fiber. Raspberries have the highest fiber content of any fruit (1 cup = 8g fiber).

    Grapefruit gives you a lot of help for your calorie avoidance. A middle-size grapefruit has only around 80 calories, and like watermelon, it's more than 90 percent water. Plus, studies have shown that a compound(化合物) in grapefruit called naringin could lower blood sugar and lead to weight loss. So enjoy some grapefruit at every chance—press it into your water, throw some into your salad, or use it like lemon to flavour your food. Keep in mind that eating grapefruit with certain medicine could have harmful influence. If you're on any prescription(药方),check with your doctor before adding grapefruit to your diet.
