With approximately a month left before fun in the sun begins, trying to get into shape may be difficult with just diets and exercise. So we have come up with a list of the 10 best fat-burning foods to combine with diets and exercise routines.
Mixing these ingredients into your meals or eating them in their natural forms, where possible, will help reduce your daily calorie intake, contributing to making you look fabulous in a few weeks.
Walnuts – the fat-hero in most nuts is monounsaturated fats, which help burn calories.
Ginger – a little ginger grated over meals can boost calorie burn.
Oatmeal – this very slow-digesting carb keeps blood sugar and insulin levels low, so fat-burning can stay high.
Avocados – the monounsaturated fats in avo’s are burned readily for fuel during exercise and encourage fat-burning.
Salmon – one of the richest sources of the omega-3 essential fats EPA and DHA, which are fats that turn on fat-burning and block fat storage.
Water – studies have shown that drinking two cups of cold water can boost your metabolic rate by 30%.
Honey – encourages fat release from the body’s fat cells.
Eggs – if you start your day with eggs, you will not only eat fewer calories throughout the day, but you will also lose significantly more fat.
Chilli pepper flakes – 
contains the active ingredient capsaicin, a chemical that enhances calorie burning at rest and reduces hunger and food intake.
Broccoli – contains phytochemicals that can enhance fat loss.
Olive oil – cooking meals with olive oil rather than normal cooking oil is much healthier as it lowers the bad types of cholesterol levels and improves cardiovascular health. It is more likely to be burned as fuel and therefore does not sit around in your midsection.
Good luck to all those trying to shake of those extra kilos!
