When it comes to dieting, we are so focused on what not to eat that we sometimes forget to pay attention to some of the foods that can actually help us to lose weight. Here we look at some of the most effective fat burning foods that you should be including in your daily diet.
Fat Burning Foods
High Protein Meats
High protein meats such as lean cuts of chicken, beef, turkey and pork.
These foods may seem more suited to building muscle, as they require more energy from the body to process but it helps to kick start the metabolism enabling the body to burn fat. The other advantage of including high protein meats into your diet is that they are filling and will give you a feeling of satiety between meals reducing the temptation to snack between meals.
Other high protein foods could include fish such as salmon, sardines and tuna.
Spicy Foods
If you can handle your food with a kick, spicy foods are definitely the way forward when it comes to weight loss. Peppers in particular are excellent at raising body temperature and in turn, boosting metabolism to burn more calories.
If you’re brave enough, try adding chillies such as jalapenos, cayenne chillies and habaneros to your meals and enjoy the benefits of increased fat burning.
High Fibre Foods
High fibre foods not only help to aid digestion they help the food move quicker through the digestive tract which means we absorb fewer calories.
Fibre rich foods can also help us to feel fuller, meaning we eat less between meals.
Examples of foods rich in fibre include; oatmeal, whole grains, broccoli, strawberries, raspberries and brown rice.
Fat Burning Supplements
Another way to increase our bodies’ fat burning is to take a natural fat burning supplement alongside a healthy, well-balanced diet and regular exercise.
Fat burning supplements (also known as thermogenics) typically contain blends of natural stimulants and herbs to increase the body temperature to help you to burn more calories during exercise.
Each fat burner is different but they all work in a similar fashion, either burning calories as heat or as fuel, providing extra energy and stamina, ideal if you’re going to be exercising. Some even double up as an appetite suppressant to suppress food cravings so your overall calorie intake is reduced.
