7 Fat Burning Foods that Burn Your Body Fat Inside Out

By Thong M. Dao

Specialists have found two primary categories of fat burning foods. Can you guess the first one? If you said "fiber", you're correct. Fruits and vegetables are high in fiber. Fiber offers a huge benefit, they fill our bottomless pits and reduce calories intake.

So, if fruits and vegetables are called the fat burning food, fiber may well be the fat burning nutrient. Protein is another best fat burning food. It's becoming more scientifically accepted that protein may help to curb appetite.

Protein also has the same power, and can slightly boost our metabolism in the process. But its imperative that we choose your proteins wisely, because like all other foods, if were eating more than the body needs, itll show up on the scale as a gain, instead of a loss.

Check out the following list of fat burning foods. These choices will help you shed the fat off pretty fast.

1. Green tea. Green tea is a great drink, hot or cold. It contains catechins which may help jump start your weight loss. Catechins are helpful phytochemicals which motivate the body to burn calories and decrease body fat.

2. Tomato- or Broth-based soups. These soups are perfect snacks between meals as they make you feel full.

3. Low-calorie green salads. Having a low-calorie salad which is not loaded with croutons, high fat dressings, and cheese as a first course can help us feel full, thereby reducing how much we eat with our main course. Wisely choose the ingredients, and its high fiber content can be the key to helping us fight cravings later in the day.

4. Low-fat yogurt. Including dairy products as part of a healthy diet may promote our weight loss efforts. Choosing a light yogurt may help fight off hunger pangs due to its combination of protein and carbohydrate.

5. Beans. A great combination of fiber and protein, beans help us feel full longer, which means they may work to curb our between-meal appetite.

6. Water. Water is the bodys lifeblood, and we should be drinking it throughout the day. Its a great no-calorie beverage, and we can get it by drinking unsweetened tea, flavored unsweetened mineral water, regular water with lime or lemon, or even in cucumbers.

Water also flushes unwanted toxins produced in the body. And when your stomach start crying out, drink a glass of water. Just think, a glass of water could save you from rummaging in that fridge and cabinets. Your body will thank you for that.

7. High-fiber, whole-grain cereal. So many folks say I do not have time for breakfast. If you drink coffee, replace it with a bowl of high-fiber whole-grain cereal. Remember fiber is a fat burning nutrient and whole grains give fiber an additional boost.
