	Foods that burn fat

Hippocrates quoted “Let thy food be thy medicine” about 2000 years back. Food is truly the medicine which has shown to heal many diseases. Obesity is one of the many problems that can be cured by eating the right types of food. These foods are called ‘free foods’ and have low calories with some of them having even negative calories. They boost your metabolism causing you to burn the excess fat. Your body has to burn more calories to metabolize these foods. Besides, they are full of health benefits, so not only you burn fat but also enjoy the health benefits.

Chilli is rich in capsaicin, which has thermogenic property that speeds up metabolism, leading to burning of fat and calories. Due to its appetite suppressing properties, it is widely used in many weight loss formulae. Besides this, capsaicin has been effective in treatment of sinusitis, migraines and arthritis, improvement of circulation and stomach conditions, inhibits the growth of malignant cells and is an excellent painkiller.

Bee pollen is a complete food with an excellent combination of nutrients, enzymes, phytochemicals and 40% protein. It speeds up the metabolism and eliminates fat due to its rich lecithin content. It forms an excellent appetite suppressant without any harmful effects.

Coconut oil has earned bad reputation due to its saturated fat contents. But this fat helps in removing excess fat from the body. Its saturated fat differs from the saturated fat found in animal products, causing it to be absorbed and used directly. People with diabetes, chronic fatigue, digestive disorders, thyroid imbalances, and infections have seen their condition improving after taking this oil.

Nettle contains serotonin, which is a neurotransmitter that calms you down and cheers you up. It works as an appetite suppressant giving the feeling of fullness. Hence it is used in supplements to control food cravings and assist slimming. When your body’s serotonin levels go down, your appetite increases causing you to eat more. Besides, nettles are nutrient-dense, detoxify and clean your body. Their high sulphur content improves the condition of skin, hair and nails.

Cocoa is full of chemicals that boost the serotonin level in the brain. The amino acid trytophan and monoamine oxidize enzyme inhibitors are the two chemicals responsible for this feeling. They hamper the body’s ability to break down the serotonin, thus making it available to your brain for a longer time. It is also an excellent source of antioxidants, aphrodisiac properties, minerals and mood-enhancers like PEA. But choose the unrefined chocolate since the commercial ones are full of artificial ingredients.

Green tea contains catechin flavonoids that alter the way that body uses norepinephrine a chemical transmitter present in the nervous system that affects the metabolic rate and thus speeds up weight loss. It also reduces cholesterol levels, the risk of stroke, protects against cancer, prevents tooth decay and is anti-inflammatory.

Omega-3 fish oil is another good supplement that is very beneficial to your body. It improves heart and the immune system, reduces arthritis, improves skin conditions, pre-menstrual problem, mental state, memory and reduces depression. It reduces insulin levels because higher insulin levels increases the fat storage in the body and reduces the burning of fat. So having lower insulin levels will use more fat as fuel than store it. Foods rich in omega-3 fats are oily fish like sardines, salmon and mackerel, flaxseeds, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, green leafy vegetables, evening primrose oil, wheat germ and spirulina.

Besides, eating right foods, increase the amount of your exercise and reduce your calories. But do not stretch it too far because the body will tend to conserve the calories, thus slowing down metabolism. Instead, you need to eat more of negative calorie foods, exercise moderately and eat the correct amount of calories will help you burn calories quickly and effortlessly.
