Weight Loss through Foods that Fight Fat

By: David Chandler

Some foods can magically melt pounds, and that train of thought
has been around for a long time. While exercise and a variety of
wholesome foods help will help you lose weight, there are foods
that burn calories and suppress hunger. Listed below are a
variety of foods that will help speed your metabolism and
therefore burn fat.

Foods such as raw spinach contain bulk. Therefore, the space
they leave in your stomach - partly because of their high water
content -leaves less room for pastries and ice cream. They are
also jammed with iron, foliate, calcium and vitamins A., B, C,
and E that helps you to lose weight.

Grape fruits help you lose weight fast. They are not magic, but
they are powerful fat fighters due to their fiber content. In
addition, without added sugar, a grapefruit has fewer calories
than an orange of the same weight.

Apples keep the doctors away and fat. Eating several apples a
day is a great way to lose weight. Hard fruits like apples take
time to chew and fill you up.

You burn more calories chewing and digesting celery than it
actually contains. Celery has vitamins E and C. It is a diet
food that also helps you lose weight and should be on everyone's
plate.

Protein packed legumes such as black beans, chickpeas, lentils
are not just low in fat and rich in soluble fiber, they digest
slowly and keep blood sugar levels steady. You will not feel
like eating for a while.

Calcium rich foods and drink such as low fat milk can boost
metabolism. It has been found that women and girls who consume
dairy products regularly tend to lose weight easily and have
less body fat than those who do not.

The omega-3 in fatty fish, such as mackerel can curb overeating.
The protein mixed with the fat in fish is also known to curb
your eating.

You can eat all the strawberries you want and can never gain a
pound. Strawberries, peaches, plums, and grapes come with cancer
fighting carotenoids and appetite-suppressing fiber. Eating
these types of fruits daily will help you lose weight fast.

Above are just some examples of foods that burn fat.
Disciplining yourself to eat a proper diet and the right
exercise program will help you reach your idea weight in no time.
