METABOLISM BOOSTING FOOD: There are certain foods that have a very high thermogenic effect, so you literally burn calories while you chew. Nutritionists say, some foods actually turn up the heat on your metabolism (the process by which your body breaks down food and turns into energy), boosting the body’s ability to burn fat. Here is a list of FAT BURNING FOODS that you will want to include on your next trip to the grocery store. 1. Apples: An apple a day is good for more than just “keeping the doctor away”; Apples are also great for boosting your metabolism. Apples are high in pectin, which binds with water and limits the amount of fat your cells can absorb. Another BONUS! An apple contains 15% of your daily recommended fiber, helping to slow down the absorption of dietary sugar intake and regulate blood glucose. 2. Eggs: Eggs are a nutritional powerhouse and one of the highest quality protein sources available. Note: It is not recommended for women to eat more than 3-4 whole eggs per week, as it will increase your cholesterol levels. You can however, eat as many egg whites as you please! 3. Jalapeños: Speed up your heart rate. Food with a kick also raises your body temperature, which then forces your body to work harder to cool itself down (this process actually requires calories). 4. Beans: Beans are packed with protein and fiber to help you stay fuller, longer. No more grazing! Unless of course its on a healthy snack (250 calories or less). 5. Lean Protein: The protein found in chicken, turkey and other leans meats takes a great deal of energy to break down. In fact, you burn about 30% of the calories the food contains during digestion.
