Top 5 most powerful fat burning foods
Want to get the most from your cupboards?
When it comes to weight loss you want to get as much bang for our buck as possible – here’s how incorporating these 5 things into your daily diet can contribute towards burning those calories off. LET’S DO IT!
- WHOLE GRAINS
Remember those? Your body has to use up twice as much calories to break down whole foods especially those rich in fiber such as oatmeal and brown rice than processed foods. Get some porridge back in your diet and swap the white for brown rice #aldente - LENTILS
One cup packs 35% of your daily iron needs, up to 20% of us are iron deficient in N.Ireland – When you lack a nutrient, your metabolism slows down because the body’s not getting what it needs to work efficiently! - HOT PEPPERS
Capsaicin is what heats up your body when you eat spicy foods, which makes you melt additional calories. You can get it by eating raw, cooked, dried, or powdered peppers, add a little cayenne pepper or hot sauce to soups, eggs, and meats for an extra calorie burn! - GRAPEFRUIT
Eating half of a grapefruit per day will meet 64% of your vitamin C needs. Grapefruit is also known as a fruit that speeds up your metabolism. - SALMON
Its a fairly simple concept - protein helps builds muscle which in turn burns calories, salmon is also a rich source of anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids, which fuel fat burning, block fat storage and aid weight loss!
Fire up your metabolism, have a some whole grains for breakfast, some spicy cayenne pepper lentil soup for lunch some chili salmon and brown rice for dinner and a grapefruit split throughout the day alongside your regular fruit and veg!
