What Studies Say About Vegetables
The consumption of salads before a meal has been shown to help reduce hunger. According to one study, people who ate a salad before a meal ate 7% to 13% fewer calories during the meal. Eating a salad before the main course increased vegetable consumption by 23% more than doing so afterward, according to another research study.
