Fat Burning Foods

The food that we put into our bodies determine how we look and feel, today’s society is being consumed by the fast food industry and all for the sake of convenience. This alone plays a huge role in today’s increase in obesity and health problems. You are exactly what you eat, if you eat lots of junk food then you will look and feel that way. 

Fat loss is such a huge concern today that people are trying numerous diets, eating plans and fat loss programs to curb or prevent the effect of obesity. Unfortunately when it comes to food people have no clue as to what foods they should be eating and they are being led blindly by the media. 

What do we actually require food for? We require food for survival and I am sure you knew that but let me elaborate. The 3 main food sources are protein, carbohydrates and essential fats. 

Protein is the building block in our body, it is what muscle tissue and cells are made of, it is essential for building a strong immune system, cell construction and stabilizing insulin levels in our body. 

Carbohydrates is the primary source of energy in our body’s , carbohydrates is broken down to form glucose (blood sugar) which is then transported by insulin from the blood stream to areas of the body where energy is needed e.g. the muscle. 

Vegetables are starchy carbohydrates which improve digestion and boost the metabolism. 

Essential fats improves insulin sensitivity, essential for the absorption of fat soluble vitamins, for joint health, oxygen transfer, improves skin texture, increased metabolic rate and helps burn fat. 

For effective fat loss one should consume small balanced meals containing protein, natural carbohydrates and essential fats at regular intervals throughout the day (approximately every 3 waking hours). It takes the human body approximately 3 hours to fully digest and consume a meal thereafter the human body will look for other sources if food is not available, this includes breaking down protein to use as energy and this means breaking down cells and muscle tissue, in another words you will be cannibalizing yourself. 

Eating after every 3 hours has been proven both scientifically and through experience to boost metabolism. 

Some food examples: 

LEAN PROTEINS – Skinless chicken breast, skinless turkey breast, tuna packed in water, salmon, egg whites, lean beef, etc.
