Fat-Fighting Foods
Jun 12, 2017
Whittle your waistline naturally with these fat-fighting foods.
Coconut Oil
Coconut oil contains Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs) which the body efficiently burns as energy instead of storing as fat. This flavorful oil boosts satiety, and promotes a lean body composition.
Eggs
Eggs are one of the best sources of choline, an essential nutrient that fights belly fat. In addition, they are an excellent source of protein to help keep you full longer.
CHili peppers
Chili Peppers contain capsaicin which is responsible for their spicy flavor, but also for helping your body convert food into energy. A study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition suggests daily consumption can improve abdominal fat loss so you can say sayonara muffin top!
They also contain vitamin C which is an important vitamin for promoting fat loss and a natural appetite suppressant. Try adding a tablespoon of chopped chili peppers to omelets or add a dash of cayenne pepper to season meats and fish.
