By eating the right foods you can burn body fat at an accelerated rate. I’m going to give you my top ten fat burning foods which are extremely good for you.
1. Apple:
This is my absolute favorite fat burning food since it’s something I can eat every day. You always hear the saying,” an apple a day keeps the doctor away.” This is absolutely true as it may help reduce blood cholesterol, improve bowel function, help prevent prostate cancer, help prevent type II diabetes, reduce asthma, and reduce the risk of stroke.
2. Broccoli:
Broccoli is a close second fat burner and has high levels of antioxidants. Eating steamed broccoli reduces the risk of a heart attack by boosting the body’s ability to fight off cell damage. Broccoli is something you can eat three to four times a week since you can bag in a zip lock and eat raw.
3. Brussel Sprouts:
This fat burner is a natural cleans for your body. They contain vitamins A, B1, B2, B6, E and K, as well as omega-3 fatty acids, folate, phosphorous, protein, copper and calcium. They detoxify your body, make your skin healthier, and promote healthy colon and immune function. This is a food you can eat a couple of times a week.
4. Beans:
Beans are a good source of B vitamins, potassium, and fiber, which promotes digestive health, relieves constipation, and may even help prevent colon cancer and reduce blood cholesterol (a leading cause of heart disease). You can pretty much eat this fat burner with just about any meal since it’s quick and easy to make.
5. Cabbage:
I know cabbage is not a sexy food and some may not like how it taste. Cabbage does however have a reputation for fighting cancer and being a good source of Vitamin C, fiber, potassium and other nutrients. This is a fat burner you can fit into your meals at least once a week.
6. Eggplant:
Want a food that can actually make you smarter? Eggplant is high in fiber, potassium, vitamin B1 and magnesium, and it is low in calories. Great food for the heart and is actually called brain food. Try to fit this fat burner into your meals at least one a week.
7. Green Beans:
I probably should have rated this fat burning food higher. Especially since green beans are a great low calorie vegetable. One cup of cooked green beans has only 44 calories and is a good source of calcium, vitamin C, lateen, beta-carotene and potassium. This is a food you can fit into more meals since it’s easy to cook.
8. Celery:
The consumption of celery seems good for people who are already on medication to lower high blood pressure. This fat burning food is something you can eat as snakes daily.
9. Cauliflower
Here is another fat burner that’s not real sexy. Cauliflower can although lower the risk of several cancers that include prostate, bladder, breast, lung, ovarian, and colon cancers. I actually love this food but don’t eat it often enough. This food you put in with your meals at least once a week.
10. Spinach:
Besides being a good vegetable for heart disease, this vegetable is also believed to do a good job in fighting cancer. It is the fiber and other nutrients in the spinach leaf that is believed to protect a person from things like lung cancer and breast cancer. We all remember how slim and buff Popey always was. It’s because he ate his fat burning food. Spinach pretty much goes with anything as well and simple to make.
If you notice these great fat burning foods are full of vitamins, minerals and most are high in fiber. We have all spent time and money on diets that don’t work instead of going the all natural route. The funny thing is most diets preach to be all natural but don’t have all the vitamins, minerals and fiber of our simple fruits and vegetables.
