Eating food is always going to lead to weight gain, right? Wrong! Some foods have certain constituents that will infact do the opposite and their own value in terms of calories is lesser than the amount of calories they will burn as a result. We have compiled a list of 6 superfoods that do just that. Make sure you incorporate them in to your diet if you plan on losing weight, fast.
Chili Peppers and Cayenne
Anything spicy will boost your metabolism and although many people may not be accustomed to it, this is extremely beneficial if you intend on losing weight. The capsaicin present will cause your blood circulation rate as well as your heart rate to spike and to do this the body needs more energy. This energy is provided by burning fats.
Artichokes
They contain a type of carbohydrate called inulin which inhibits the release of a hormone called gherlin. This hormone is what makes you feel the sensation of hunger. Preventing the release would mean that your body will not consume more calories but rather the combust the calories stored in the form of fat.
Cinnamon
Cinnamon helps lower your blood sugar levels and boosts your metabolism and as a result the body metabolize sugar 20 times faster even if consumed in tiny quantities. What this means is that not only will your body expend the energy consumed quicker but it will also prevent your body from craving more food since your blood sugar levels will be stable.
Green Tea
Green Tea is loaded with antioxidants that will boost your metabolism once they enter the blood stream. The chief antioxidant is ECGC and the overall effect is of a quicker heart rate that will result in more calories burnt to provide the energy required for the bodily functions.
Vinegar
This sour condiment helps lower blood glucose level and just like the other foods on the list, boosts the metabolism that means more fat loss while you rest on a couch.
Greek Yoghurt
Greek Yoghurt has a dual positive effect for losing weight. The first one is that it is packed with protein which means that you will feel full and your cravings will be kept at bay. The second one is the presence of probiotics that are beneficial bacteria that help improve the health in the stomach and allow better digestion of food in which the fat is often passed on to the excretory system. To summarize, you will not be gaining as much fat.
The above foods are a blessing from nature no doubt and it is absolutely necessary that we opt for the natural rout to ensure that we achieve our weight goals safely.
