REHABILITATED... FAT, OR WHY ARE FATTY PRODUCTS GOOD FOR HEALTH?

The main question for 90% of people with excess fat mass is what foods burn fat? An obese person assumes that if you include one of the fat-burning foods in your diet, a positive effect is simply guaranteed. On the one hand, it is simply not logical for an already overweight person to look for additional sources of calories. It seems logical to give up all sources of calories, but this is fundamentally wrong.

Today, on every website that deals with beauty and health issues, you can find top products that help burn fat. So, for these products to really help burn excess fat in the body, a competent approach is necessary.

It should be immediately noted that there are no foods, be it fruits or vegetables, that you can simply add to your main diet in order to start burning subcutaneous or visceral (internal) fat. Don’t think that eating half a grapefruit before bed can completely rid you of subcutaneous fat. To normalize body weight, you first need to figure out what conditions need to be created for the body so that it begins to consume conserved energy in the form of fat. And then use fat burning products.

Fruits against fat

We should begin our review of products that burn fat and destroy excess lipids in the body by getting to know the juicy fruits - fruits. The fact is that among them there are specimens that are quite effective in terms of fat burning, the analogues of which simply do not exist.

• Pineapple is an advanced fat burning food. It contains the famous bromelain. This is an enzyme that can perfectly break down fats. Its effect extends even to old fat deposits. In addition, pineapple is rich in fiber, which improves metabolism.

• Grapefruit. Also an ideal fat burning product. An extremely low-calorie product containing only 35 kcal. Perfectly and for a long time satisfies the feeling of hunger and reduces appetite. Thanks to grapefruit, it is possible to lose up to 2 kg of excess weight in 3 months without physical activity. It is enough to eat 1/2 bitter citrus per day.
• Apples. They are a rich source of pectin, a soluble fiber that discourages you from eating something tasty in between meals.
• Avocado. This product controls appetite and promotes fat burning, which is due to vitamin E and the amino acid L-carnitine. Although the calorie content of the product is quite high: more than 200 kcal.
• Kiwi. It is famous for its huge amount of ascorbic acid, which not only breaks down fats, but also starts the process of collagen production in the skin. Kiwi is an excellent product that burns fat and makes your body beautiful.
• Lemon. Why is lemon considered a food that burns fat in the body? Its juice allows you to get rid of fat, since it blocks the body's absorption of lipids from food. In addition, lemon is a storehouse of organic acids, and these are perhaps the best fat burners after antioxidants.

Which vegetables burn fat?

We seem to have listed all the most famous fruits, now let’s talk about vegetables. So, which everyday vegetables actively burn fat? More about this.

• Onion and garlic. Yes, indeed, they burn fat and very well. They are saturated with phytoncides, due to which weight is normalized and immunity inexorably increases. In addition, they contain a lot of the microelement selenium, which has antioxidant properties.
• Cucumbers. They can boast of having a large amount of water. And the liquid, by the way, speeds up metabolism and cleanses the body of toxins and waste. At the same time, cucumbers are a very low-calorie food product.
• Tomatoes. Without a doubt, tomatoes are an excellent fat burning food. Juicy tomatoes contain a unique substance, lycopene, an antioxidant by nature that breaks down fats and prevents the development of malignant tumors.

• Zucchini and zucchini. These two vegetable crops rid the body of excess water and stagnation of moisture in tissues, which often look like fat deposits. There are incredibly few calories in these products.
• Red beetroot. This is a good laxative with a mild effect. Beets are rich in pectin and coarse fiber, which is why they perfectly cleanse the body of toxins. Among other things, the root vegetable reduces the level of “bad” cholesterol in the blood.

Cold soups and natural juices destroy fat deposits

A special place in the list of foods that promote fat burning is given to cold vegetable soups. Just not fatty - cooked in water or vegetable broth. Cold food that enters our stomach is warmed up by the body, spending calories on it. Processing a portion of a variety of vegetables also occurs due to the consumption of calorie reserves. So it turns out that the body spends two to three times more calories to process a portion of cold vegetable soup or vegetable and fruit juices than it receives, while hot soups are absorbed faster and much fewer calories are spent on their processing.

Under what conditions does weight loss occur?

The basic rule of losing weight is to eat fewer calories than you burn. Only in this case the fat burning process starts. If there is not enough energy, the body begins to obtain it from fat reserves. If more calories come from food than are consumed, they are deposited, mainly on the stomach and sides. Many people believe that they can get rid of them through physical training. But to burn 500 calories, you need at least 45 minutes of active cardio.

There are many ways to calculate how many calories a person needs per day. It depends on the age, gender of the person, and physical activity. On average, a woman with a normal lifestyle needs 1500–2000 calories, with high physical activity - up to 3000 calories. And to lose weight, you need to consume 20% less. Therefore, counting the calorie content of food is the main condition for fat burning products to work. You can use the calorie table for the most common foods.

The second condition for effective weight loss is to reduce insulin production. This hormone is responsible for transporting glucose into cells and storing fat reserves. Excess carbohydrates, especially sweets, stimulate its production. If you continue to use them, fat burning products will not help.

Berries

Even our most ordinary berries burn fat in the body. When it's summer, take advantage of the moment, eat delicious berries, stock up on vitamins and lose weight correctly.

Raspberries have succeeded in breaking down and burning fats. Nature has endowed this berry with enzymes, one of the functions of which is to convert adipose tissue cells into energy. Enzymes also improve the digestion process. For weight loss, it is useful to eat raspberries before the main meal, half an hour before, in the amount of 1/2 cup.

Blackberries cope with excess weight. This is a very watery berry with a large amount of anthocyanins, whose list of duties includes fat burning. In addition, blackberries quickly satisfy the feeling of hunger.

Blueberries cannot be ignored. It also contains anthocyanins, as well as pectin compounds. True, eating blueberries in large quantities can give an undesirable effect in the form of constipation, so be careful.

Cranberries are a source of vitamin C. Stimulates the formation of collagen fibers. For this reason, this product promotes fat burning, which does not affect proteins, that is, muscle tissue, after lipids and carbohydrates run out.

Blueberries also have a great fat-burning effect. They are similar in many ways to blueberries, so you shouldn’t eat the juicy fruit in large quantities.

Rules for eating foods that burn fat on the stomach and sides

To prevent the process of losing weight from harming your health, you should not make up your diet only from fat-burning foods. Nutrition should be balanced and rational. Mono-diets are also undesirable; you can have a fasting day once a week, but eat nutritiously the rest of the time.

In order to be able to use fat-burning products for quick weight loss, it is important to adhere to the following rules:

• you can eat them several times, but it’s better in the afternoon;
• carbohydrate foods should be eaten for breakfast;
• It is advisable to avoid consuming sugar, salt and seasonings;
• steam, boil, stew or bake food;
• eat small portions every 3 hours so as not to feel hungry;
• completely eliminate fried and fatty foods, semi-finished products, and fast food from the diet;
• drink at least 2 liters of liquid per day.

Healthy dishes made from fat-burning foods

There are several simple recipes to help you lose weight using fat-burning foods. To lose weight faster, you need to consume daily:

• cabbage and cucumber salad with parsley, dressed with apple cider vinegar;
• avocado, green bean and spinach salad;
• fruit or vegetable smoothies with water or low-fat milk;
• vegetable broth soups;
• cream from low-fat cottage cheese, whipped in a blender with mineral water;
• fruit salad of pineapple and papaya with low-fat yogurt;
• tea made from fresh ginger root cut into pieces;
• green tea mixed with skim milk;
• Drink a glass of water with lemon juice in the morning.

Any diet is a temporary way to solve the problem. In order for the weight to decrease and not return, you need to adhere to the rules of nutrition constantly. Fat-burning foods can help you lose weight, but without limiting your caloric intake and increasing physical activity, they will not work.

V. Sources of unsaturated fats: fish oil.

Fish fat:

• animal in origin, but contains many unsaturated fatty acids, like vegetable fats;
• like any fat, it consists of fatty acids and impurities;
• contains fat-soluble vitamins (A, E), microelements (iron, selenium, iodine, phosphorus, bromine, etc.);
• high amounts of omega-3 and omega-6, essential fatty acids that the body cannot synthesize.

Omega-3.

Omega-3 acids:

• linolenic acid;
• docosahexoenoic acid (DHA);
• eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA).

Omega-3 is important because DHA and EPA are almost impossible to obtain from vegetable fats. The high concentration of DHA and EPA in the gray matter of the brain (3% of dry weight) and in the retina of the eye indicates the vital necessity of these acids for the functions of the brain and eyes.

DHA and EPA are beneficial for the brain, vision, heart, vegetative-vascular system, and central nervous system. These acids also help in building muscle, as they are part of cell membranes. EPA helps treat depression, emotional stress, and helps with heavy, intense work.

Omega 6.

Omega-6 acids:

• linoleic acid;
• arachidonic acid.

Omega-6 fats are not particularly important because they are easily obtained from vegetable oils.

Some acids can be synthesized from others. But in the human body this ability is greatly limited and the consumption of only one acid does not lead to the complete replenishment of others.

Buying fish oil.

Fish oil is extracted from the liver of fish. Fish oil is extracted from the muscle tissue of fish. This classification is currently irrelevant due to the fact that the concept of “fishy” is a marketing ploy. In the Russian dietary supplement classifier, the same name is used for both muscle and liver sources - fish oil or omega-3.

These are all semantic games. First of all, choose according to the SOURCE of origin of the supplement.

How to choose the best fish oil:

1. Take fish oil from the meat and muscles of fish, preferably different varieties. There will be fewer vitamins and minerals (this is not the main thing, they can be taken from other sources), but there will also be fewer various impurities, toxic and harmful substances to the body. It is called in English: FISH OIL, in Russian: FISH OIL. Do not take fish oil from the liver of cod or other fish - the liver accumulates various impurities, toxic substances and salts of heavy metals. This is a classic fish oil. It is called in English: COD LIVER OIL, in Russian: FISH OIL.
2. Take refined fish oil. There will be no vitamin impurities, but there will be no toxic substances either.
3. The most valuable things in fish oil are DHA and EPA, that is, omega-3 acids. These are the ones you need to focus on when choosing a product.
4. It is better to take from valuable varieties of fish: the more valuable the type of fish, the healthier the fat, the more DHA and EPA it contains, the more expensive the fish oil. Salmon, for example, will clearly be more expensive than cod
5. The liquid form of fish oil will allow you to feel its qualities, unlike fish oil in capsules.
