A recent report from Michael Zemel, Professor of Nutrition and Medicine at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville reports, "If you compare a dairy-rich versus a dairy-poor diet you can nearly double the rate of weight and fat loss with the same level of calorie restriction." It states that the calcium in dairy products can boost weight loss by increasing fat breakdown in fat cells. Therefore, dairy products could be termed as fat burning foods. These include milk, cheese and yogurt and might be considered a fat burning secret.

List of Great Fat Burning Foods

Do you know how fat accumulates in the body? Although, I'm not here to explain the whole process, but would certainly like to tell you that it's a slow and steady process which eventually takes time. It doesn't happen overnight.

Before I start telling you about the methods or techniques used to burn excess fat from your body, I would first like to discuss about our eating habits.

As you know, there are varieties of foods available today, and you can choose anything you like to eat. However, if you look at the broader picture, you will come to know about the fact that each type of food contains specific percentage of carbohydrates, proteins, fat, and other essential nutrients. Now, the question arises, how to lose fat or what are the best exercises for weight loss?

The very first step to control excess fat accumulation in your body is to check the type of food you intake. It's very important that you take the right kind of food containing high fiber. Do you know the best way to burn belly fat? Well, if you want to burn excess belly fat, then you should include more beans in your diet.

High fiber diets are often recommended by most nutritionists and experts, as they are responsible for smooth functioning of your heart and other vital organs. Studies suggest that foods containing high fiber help in lowering down your cholesterol levels. Please find below a list of food items that are helpful in burning excess fat from your body and waistline.

• Fruits and Vegetables- Fruits and vegetables are always helpful in controlling excess fat from your body. They are known as high calorie foods with a rich source of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals. The vitamins and minerals are often called as the building blocks of cells. Due to their property of controlling the right amount of hormonal secretion, they are also called as fat burning foods. Apples, strawberries, raisins, prunes are some of the fruits that are known to give the desired results, if used on a regular basis. Similarly, vegetables like garlic, onion, beans (kidney beans, black beans) have been proved effective in burning fat to a great extent. Please find below some more foods that are known to lose your weight along with high cholesterol levels.
• Blueberries - These are known to be very helpful in reducing fat from your belly by affecting the genes responsible to burn fat. The fruit eventually helps in dealing with weight related problems.
• Pears- The fruit is quite effective in reducing the weight, especially in women.
• Oranges- Studies suggest that compounds present in the fruit are quite effective in decreasing the cholesterol level which finally results in weight loss.
• Honey - It's a type of food ingredient, often used to cure obesity. It attacks the extra fat deposit cells of the body and mobilizes them to release energy. You can take a tablespoon of honey with hot water in early morning to get the desired results.
• Garlic - Garlic is a natural source of sulphur (in the form of alicin) which helps to get rid of unhealthy fats. The compound has some antibacterial properties responsible to reduce cholesterol.
• Mustard Oil - It's known to contain unsaturated fatty acids along with some other vital fatty acids and vitamins which reduce cholesterol.
• Cabbage - It helps in reducing your body weight more effectively. Cabbage inhibits the conversion of carbohydrates into fat resulting in weight loss.

Foods That Burn Fat

Good nutrition is a big part of any fitness endeavour. I prefer to use the term 'Good Nutrition' rather than the word 'Diet.' Diet just sounds like hassle to most people, hassle and pain, and to be honest it is. They also don't work. The very definition of the word means, a severe restriction of calories that is temporary.
Diets are always temporary, so that means you have to come off them at some point, and that's when the problems begin. You have triggered the body's starvation response, because you have restricted your caloric intake. This evolutionary throwback, from a time when humans didn't know where the next meal was coming from, was great for our ancestors, but not so great for today's modern society, where food is fast, fat ladled and plentiful. These days it's just a hindrance to any person trying to shed the pounds.
The key is not to limit the food you eat, but simply change it. I think everyone who has an interest in nutrition has heard of the 6 meals a day theory. Most people agree that it sounds like a good idea, but then very few actually give it a go. Personally, I think it's a must for anyone wanting to lose weight.
Eating 5 or 6 small, balanced meals every day will get your metabolism burning calories like a furnace. It isn't always possible for some people, especially with work commitments, but just try eat something every 3-4 hours and you will be surprised at the results. Plan ahead!
So what should you eat then? Well below is a list of foods that I believe you can't go wrong with.
CARBOHYDRATES: (the good kind)
Brown Rice
Potatoes (especially sweet potato)
Carrots
Whole Grain Cereals & breads.
Most Pasta - just look on the pack and make sure it says wholegrain!
Fresh fruit
Anything with the whole grain is good for you
Green vegetables or fibrous veg
Eg:
Lentils
Broccoli
Sprouts
Asparagus
Peppers
Tomatoes
Spinach
Beans
Black eye peas
You can eat as much veg as you like.
Combining green veg with a good protein is like nature's fat loss wonder drug!
All these complex carbs are great for energy
GOOD PROTEIN:
Turkey
Chicken
Egg Whites
Most Fish & Shellfish (they also contain the essential fats)
Lean cuts of steak
Cottage Cheese (non fat)
Dairy products are a good source of protein. Just try and get the low fat kind.
These foods are great for building muscle.
You can also get low fat ham & sausages. I wouldn't class them as top grade protein, but they are fine for a bit of variation. The same goes for Beef and red meat. Eat it now and again for its nutritional benefits, like vitamin B-12 & iron, but try and find lean cuts, and keep portion sizes small.
I know the list isn't that big, but I'm just giving you the facts. If you want to lose weight and get lean - these are the foods that should be the building blocks of your diet. Throw in the odd indulgence day, maybe on the weekend. A day where you can eat anything you like! Just work twice as hard in the gym the next day ;)
For breakfast:
Chose from the dozens of whole grain cereals on the market.
Scrambled eggs (It is a good idea to remove the Yolkes every so often).
Fruit
Meal 2
Oatmeal,
Wholegrain Toast,
Banana
Meal 3
Brown Rice,
Lean cuts of Turkey,
Veg (Green Beans)
Meal 4
Chicken,
Sweet Potato,
More Veg. Plenty to choose from
Meal 5
Fish,
Jacket Potato,
Salad
If you can manage a 6th meal, try a combination of anything mentioned.
It sounds a lot, but lower your portions and you should be fine. The idea is not to be bloated after any meal. Build up to it if you have to.
Obviously this isn't a comprehensive guide. It's just my 2 penneth amidst all the confusion surrounding food these days. Combine this with visits to the gym and you will see dramatic results.
Good luck
