This sweetly fragrant herb is easy to add to any treat, drink, or dish, and helps move glucose into your cells quickly, causing fat storage hormones to disperse. While cinnamon can be found in high-calorie desserts like cinnamon buns, try our Slow Cooker Cinnamon & Honey Nuts recipe for a healthy snack to help you get bikini ready.

Cinnamon Spiced Coffee

6. Coffee. More than just an early morning wake-me-up, coffee stimulates adrenaline, causing our body to naturally burn fat. Too much coffee, though, can interfere with your body’s natural insulin regulation, so keep consumption in moderation. For a healthy coffee recipe, try our Morning Joe in the Raw recipe or our Cinnamon Spiced Coffee recipe.

Zingy Pink Grapefruit Soda

7. Oranges & Grapefruit.
Looking for a filling fruit that will leave you satisfied? Oranges and grapefruit both contain high amounts of fiber helping you stay full, while enhancing your calorie burn. Try our Orange Sports Drink recipe or our Zingy Pink Grapefruit Soda recipe to get your fair share of these fat blasting fruits.

Green Tea Mango Smoothie

In numerous studies, green tea has been proven to temporarily increase metabolism, allowing your body to burn more calories at a faster rate. Add green tea to your diet with our Green Tea Mango Smoothie recipe.

Whole-Grain Banana Blueberry Pancakes

Swap out any processed grains for whole grains like brown rice and whole wheat bread to help blast away fat. Your body burns twice as many calories breaking down whole grains as opposed to processed grains. Try our Whole-Grain Banana Blueberry Pancakes and our Whole-Grain Cinnamon Pita Chips for easy ways to include whole grains in your diet.
