Best Nigerian Foods to Lose Weight According to a Dietitian

Love Nigerian food but want to lose weight? Learn how to enjoy jollof, amala, and more while reaching your goals with dietitian-approved tips.

When we hear “weight loss,” our minds instantly think of green smoothies, boiled eggs on lettuce, or imported quinoa bowls that don’t excite us. I understand that losing weight can feel like a struggle. Why should you give up amala or jollof rice just because you’re trying to drop a few kilos? 

As I have just found, you can lose weight while still eating your favourite Nigerian dishes, including jollof rice, amala, and moi-moi. We had a chat with a Nigerian dietitian, and she gave us the full scoop on how to eat local and still crush your weight loss goals.
