Jeon Somi discovered the combination! Bread, Olive Oil, and the Reinvention of Diet Management
"Are you afraid of getting fat by just eating it?" Are you giving up on bread?
Have you ever reduced even a piece of bread you loved to eat because "bread makes you fat"? Sweet cream bread, fluffy white bread… these foods provide comfort just by looking at them, but they are always shunned for weight control. But what if this bread could actually help manage your figure?
Singer Jeon Somi recently introduced her lunch menu on her YouTube channel, and it became a hot topic. Her lunchbox, presented while saying "I smeared a lot of olive oil on bread", contained healthy bread filled with red beans and walnuts. It wasn’t just a simple food introduction; it was a scene that showed how she practices health and figure management daily.
The combination worth noting is bread – walnut – red bean – olive oil. This scientific balance hidden among these ordinary ingredients actually makes a healthy diet possible.
The meeting of walnuts and red beans that provide satiety and nutrition at the same time
Have you ever felt hungry quickly even after eating a little in the morning? In such cases, it’s not just 'low calories' that are important, but also the 'satiety' the food provides. Walnuts and red beans in Jeon Somi’s lunchbox meet both needs.
Walnuts have a high protein content of more than 20% and are rich in fiber, helping maintain satiety for a long time. Particularly when consumed in the morning, they can naturally reduce total calorie intake for the day. It’s a much more sustainable method than restricting meals excessively.
Red beans aren’t just included for sweetness. They contain ‘saponin’, which promotes diuretic action to reduce swelling and helps expel waste from the body. Red beans might play a significant role in Jeon Somi’s clear skin and lean figure.
"Blaming bread" is only half right, what matters is ‘what kind of bread’ it is
We often see bread itself as an enemy of dieting. However, refined flour bread is a completely different story than the ingredient-centered healthy bread chosen by Jeon Somi.
Products centered on refined carbohydrates like white bread have a glycemic index of over 70. Eating them results in a rapid rise in blood sugar, causing insulin to be explosively secreted and inducing hunger again. This is the cause of the "I’m more hungry if I eat just bread" phenomenon.
However, bread containing fiber and protein like red beans and walnuts digests and absorbs slowly, allowing blood sugar to rise gently. This is the core of Jeon Somi’s ‘bread with no fear of weight gain’ management method. Instead of avoiding bread, change how you choose it.
Are you dipping oil? Olive oil is ‘pouring health’
When you hear about pouring oil on bread, you might think "Wouldn’t that increase calories?" But the olive oil used from Jeon Somi’s lunchbox was a ‘choice for health’.
Olive oil is rich in unsaturated fatty acids that lower triglyceride levels in the blood. When your body consumes sugars, it secretes insulin to control blood sugar, and this insulin is the main culprit of accumulated fat. However, olive oil prevents the excessive secretion of insulin by preventing a rapid rise in blood sugar. The power to slow down digestion is key.
And here’s something more amazing. According to a study by the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, people who consumed more than half a spoon of olive oil a day had a 28% lower risk of dementia. It was an excellent choice that considered not just figure maintenance but overall health.
Same ingredients, but the way you choose them will transform your diet
Many focus on "how much you eat", often choosing to give up. But Jeon Somi’s lunch suggests a different direction. Even the same bread can have significantly different results depending on what ingredients you add and how you prepare it.
For instance, the effect of a bread full of cream and sugar versus bread with walnuts and red beans accompanied by olive oil is completely different. The former is a sugar and fat bomb, while the latter is a harmony of proteins, dietary fiber, and unsaturated fats. In fact, the latter is excellent as a ‘post-workout replenishment’.
It’s okay even if you don’t make it yourself. There are plenty of commercially available healthy bread products with various grains, nuts, and legumes added. Just adding a spoonful of good oil completes your own healthy lunchbox.
Maintaining a figure is not possible through exercise alone, diet is a lifestyle habit
Jeon Somi seems to practice her diet as part of life, not just as a short-term diet. Her YouTube meals reflect ‘sustainable habits’ more than ‘extreme restraint’.
When exercise and diet are harmoniously maintained, a truly healthy figure is created. Especially
