Switzerland: Try a bowl of muesli
The ingredients in this porridge—oats, fruit and nuts—have all been linked to better health and weight control. Muesli was developed by a Swiss physician more than 100 years ago to nourish hospital patients, but today the Swiss eat it for breakfast or as a light evening snack. "Eating a lot of soluble ’fibre can reduce bad cholesterol levels by
up to 10 percent," says dietitian Melodie Yong. Muesli’s fibre makes it slow to digest, keeping you full
longer. But read the label carefully, though: Sugar content can vary from two to 14 grams per serving.
