"Some of us eat this food simply because we like how it tastes in salads, soups, or pasta. But if you&amp;#x27;re Katy Perry...you also eat it for its supposed slimming properties. The food? Mushrooms! Along with stars such as Kelly Osbourne, Katy reportedly follows the M-Plan: Over a 14-day period, she replaces one meal a day with a dish featuring raw mushrooms. Mushrooms are low in calories but high in protein and fiber, which may keep you feeling fuller longer and less apt to snack on high-calorie foods throughout the rest of the day. Plus, the fungi are filled with selenium and vitamin D&amp;amp;#8212;both good-for-you nutrients. But, says Keri Glassman, R.D., there&amp;#x27;s nothing magic about mushrooms for weight loss: If you replace your usual burger and fries at lunch with a spinach and mushroom salad, you&amp;#x27;re ultimately just improving your eating habits by incorporating more veggies into your diet. Which is a good thing&amp;amp;#8212;but mushrooms shouldn&amp;#x27;t necessarily get all the credit. Gotta say, I love mushrooms&amp;amp;#8212;do you?
