Top Six Fruits To Lose Fat

1) Banana – Banana’s are filled with fibre that help curb appetite and make the body burn fat. The indigestible fibers in bananas, or a resistant starch, block carbs from being absorbed by the body. This makes the body burn fat as energy instead of the carbs. Its believed that bananas contain certain enzymes that help speed up digestion, and elimination, causing weight loss. The potassium in bananas helps build muscle that will in turn burn fat. The great thing about banana’s is, its such an easy food to throw in your handbag for that mid morning snack on the run!
2) Grapefruit – Grapefruits contain the antioxidant naringenin which evens out insulin levels. By reducing the affects of insulin in your body, grapefruit contributes to weight loss. Grapefruit benefits your body tremendously by suppling lots of Vitamin C, which is one of the most effective nutrients that will help strengthen immune function  Grapefruit also has a high supply of fiber which will help avoid constipation. If you eat half a grapefruit a day, you will receive 25 percent of the daily recommended amount.
3) Blueberries – Catechins found in blueberries activate fat-burning genes in abdominal fat cells to assist with weight loss, and belly fat loss in particular.  Even though we all know blueberries have an abundance of antioxidant which help boost our immune system, more recent finding have show that blueberries contain more powerful fat blasting abilities and its called “polyphenols” its a groups of chemicals that can cut the number of fat cells in the body  and have been shown to fight adipogenesis, which is the development of fat cells, and induce lipolysis, which is the breakdown of lipids/fat. A handful of blueberries on your oatmeal or healthy mummy smoothie in the morning?
4) Tomatoes –These fruits are packed with a whole lot of vitamin c and phytonutrients that both are fat fighters  Vitamin C is what enables our bodies to burn fat that is already stored with exercise. The phytonutrient caretenoid serves as an antioxidant for our body that helps with losing weight and cardiovascular health. There is a compound in tomatoes called 9-oxo-octadecadienoic which impares circulating blood lipids resulting in fat reduction. Just another reason to add more tomatoes onto your salad each night!
5) Pomegranate – pomegranate’s are filled with antioxidants that get rid of the unwanted toxins in our body. The type of antioxidants in pomegranates are polyphenols, and these antioxidants boost the body’s metabolism.  The high amount of dietary fibre, both soluble and insoluble in pomegranate juice helps to improve digestion and regulate bowel movement. Since it has no saturated fats or cholesterol, it is highly recommended for those aiming to lose weight.
6) Apples – An apple a day keeps the doctor aways, so the saying goes! But did you know why?? Well apples are low in calories and fat, and contain vitamins and minerals as well as fibre. These can all help you to lose weight in different ways. The fiber helps you feel full longer! Apples are a low-sodium food that are great food for a healthy diet. Keeping your sodium low will help prevent excess water weight, or retention. And, the vitamins benefit you by increasing health and vitality. Of course, being active helps burn extra calories to speed up weight loss.
