The Top 15 Fat Burning Foods

In this expanded list of 15 fat burning foods you will find many other examples of food that you can use in your daily meal creations.

I have written in many of the articles in this site, there is no food that actually burns body fat. But there are two important qualities that certain foods have.

This is the list of the top 15 fat burning foods:

1) chicken breast

2) turkey breast

3) egg whites

4) lean red meat

5) fish

6) shellfish

7) oatmeal

8) yams

9) potatoes

10) brown rice

11) whole wheat bread

12) whole grain products

13) vegetables

14) fresh fruit

15) low fat and non-fat dairy products

The first is a high thermic effect, which means that your body must expand a large part of the calories that come from these foods. In the protein section I explain the thermic effect in a little more detail.

And the second is what is considered negative calorie foods, where there is such a small amount of calories contained in certain foods that your body expands more energy to burn them than there are contained in the food itself.

Both of these types are food are covered in the nutrition sections, and in many other sections of this site.

When you have the time, come back and read the sections which interest you the most and you will find many nutrition strategies for helping your body burn unwanted body fat.

This list of 15 fat burning foods is based on the food that I consume on a regular basis that helps me maintain a low body fat percentage year round.

From my experience eating high quality food that is as close as possible to its natural state will not only help you to reach your ideal weight, but will also provide your organism with everything it needs to function properly and will produce high energy levels on a daily basis.
