5 Foods That Shred Fat

It might sound a little far-fetched, but it’s true.

There are foods out there that will boost your metabolism, cut cravings, and help your body shred fat. That is what these five fat blasting foods do when incorporated into a clean diet. So clean up your diet and shred the fat with these top foods.

Kale

This luscious leafy green is the most nutrient dense food you can get. It helps stave off hunger, has tons of fiber, and is great for helping you detoxify. This means fewer cravings for the bad stuff like fried foods and sugar. Eat it raw in a salad or toss it into the blender with a banana, some ice, a little frozen pineapple, and some frozen mango for an awesome smoothie. For a nice antioxidant boost, toss in a handful of blueberries and drink up!

Wild Salmon

Wild salmon is packed to the gills with omega 3 fatty acids. This improves your body’s sensitivity to insulin which blasts belly fat and helps you lean up. It is also very effective in increasing your metabolism. Choose wild salmon over farm raised salmon for optimal fat shredding benefits.

Quinoa

This incredible grain packs a powerful punch of vitamins and minerals including potassium, B vitamins, vitamin E, iron, phosphorus, fiber, and magnesium. It also is considered a complete protein; not many plants can claim that added benefit. The fiber means it will keep your body working for longer, burning fat, and nourishing your body.

Cinnamon

Ceylon cinnamon has some amazing health benefits. Sprinkle a little in a smoothie or on your food and reap the fat shredding benefits. As a bonus this warm spice revs your metabolism, helps with your cholesterol, and helps stabilize your insulin. Check the label though because most cinnamon on the spice aisle is not Ceylon – check the Hispanic food aisle though. You’ll usually find it there.

Avocado

Tossing some avocado in your salad or whipping up some fresh guacamole will do more than give you a great tasting snack. This buttery fruit ramps up your fat burning hormones and switches off the ones that store fat. And as if that isn’t enough, it gives your metabolism a nice boost. Toss with some fresh tomato and cucumber and add a little olive oil and raw, unfiltered apple cider vinegar for the ultimate fat blasting treat.
