When we set a goal to lose extra pounds, the question arises as to what foods can help us do it best. In addition to a healthy diet and exercise, look out for foods that burn fat and help you lose weight faster. Of course, this doesn’t mean that these foods will take away a few pounds a day – but they can speed up your metabolism. We’ve rounded up five foods that will help you lose weight faster.
Cinnamon
Cinnamon, like many spices like turmeric, ginger and cloves, is a powerful antioxidant, detoxifying and blood sugar stabilizing. In addition, these spices are rich in vitamins A, B and E and minerals that are essential for both the gastrointestinal tract and the whole body. Add cinnamon to porridge or smoothies in the morning – it will make the flavour richer and more interesting and help you lose weight.
Grapefruit
Grapefruit’s fat burning ability seems to be known by everyone. It speeds up your metabolism and boosts your metabolism because it lowers levels of the hormone insulin, which is responsible for depositing fat into extra pounds. If eating grapefruit just doesn’t appeal to you, try making a freshly squeezed juice from it – we shared a delicious and healthy recipe here.
Pineapple
Another famous fat-burning product. Pineapple speeds up your metabolism, boosts your metabolism and also saturates your body with A and B vitamins. The healthiest way to eat pineapple, like all fruits, is freshly or in freshly washed juice. Canned versions are not very good for the body and do not help to lose weight.
Celery
Among the foods that burn fat, celery is considered one of the most effective. It improves the metabolism and, thanks to its high fibre content, helps to satiate the body for a long time, reducing the feeling of hunger. Use this vegetable in salads or as a snack, dipping celery stalks into hummus, which, incidentally, is an excellent source of protein.
Water
No diet will be effective without enough fluids. Water is great for eliminating toxins and waste from the body, speeds up the metabolism, helps burn fat and improves skin, hair and nails. Remember to drink at least two litres of water a day and always keep your water balance in check – especially when you’re exercising. If drinking plain water tastes bad, try adding lemon, cucumber or mint to your daily water supply.
