Fat Burning Diets

When you’re choosing and reviewing potential fat burning diets make sure you find one that has shown to consistently produce results.  Food won’t actually burn fat, but there are foods that make it harder for your body to break them down causing more calories to be burned to extract the macro nutrients.  You also shouldn’t have to break the bank to make your diet work for you.

Always try to fit calcium into your fat burning diet.  There are great sources of calcium other than dairy such as spinach, kale, oranges (yup!), beans, and salmon.  Three servings of calcium a day has been shown to increase fat loss rate. Dairy is one of the best sources of calcium, but it’s nice to know you don’t have to eat yogurt every single day.

You should also consider adding the spices cinnamon and garlic to your meals everyday.  My favorite vectors for cinnamon consumption are sprinkling it on my toast with natural peanut butter or right into a cup of coffee. Garlic can be added to eggs at breakfast and stiry fry at dinner.

Creating a fat burning diet that works for everyone is practically impossible, as no one person is exactly the same.  I think there are some diets that work really well ,but there are also some simple ways you can get a jump on accelerating fat loss today.  

Crash Diets Are Effective For Short Time Periods

If you want to quickly lose some weight, you can try a crash diet.  It will only work for a maximum of two weeks before your body adapts and starts conserving fat.  The other problem with crash diets is they aren’t healthy over the long term, as you’ll be eating a limited selection of food in most cases.

Short Term Crash Diets – Fat Burning Diets Are The Fastest Way To Create A Calorie Deficit

If your body requires 2,500 calories a day and you create a 1000 calorie deficit you save yourself close to 2 hours on the treadmill EVERYDAY.  It’s pretty hard to run at a decent pace for 2 hours everyday, or you could just easily drop your overall caloric intake to create a simillar effect.  Again, this is a temporary solution as eating such a low amount of calories will actually hurt you than help you over the long haul.  This is a great way to make some quick body fat reductions.  

Sample Crash Diet To Follow Before Starting A Healthy Fat Burning Diet

1. Only eat 1000 – 1500 calories depending on your build, gender, and muscle mass
2. Of course, dont stop taking your multivitamin.  You are taking a daily multivitamin aren’t you?
3. Eat fat, but only mono and polyunstaurated fats.  Think nuts and olive oil.
4. Protein, Protein, Protein – Eat A LOT OF PROTEIN 
5. Try to shoot for 3 – 4 cups of coffee a day for the fat burning effect of caffeine
6. Drink about a gallon of water

What you should be eating mainly on this diet is 2-3 fruits for carbs, 2-4 veggies for carbs and the rest of your food should be plain lean chicken or fish lightly drizzled with olive oil.  In about two weeks you will see a dramatic change in your body.  Then, once the two weeks is over, gradually increase your calorie intake to your normal levels while increasing your exercise intensity, volume, and duraiton and you will be able to mainatin the rapid fat loss you worked so hard for.  Then, you should stick too a good fat burning diet to keep it off and stay healthy.
