Fish:
Fish oil is one of the best foods we can consume. Not only is fish a food that burns fat, but the oil in fish is heart healthy too.
Fish oil has been shown to speed the metabolism and to help improve the health of our blood vessels.
Nuts:
Nuts are filled with good fats, which makes them a food that burns fat. They help you feel full and give you lots of nutrition, too. They are high calorie foods, though, so eat small portions.
Milk:
Low fat milk and other low fat dairy products are great foods that burn fat. Calcium speeds the metabolism along with providing needed calcium.
fish oil contains EFAs (Essential fatty acids) namely omega 3 and 6, they are low in calories (since you’re only taking about 2000mg of it a day), it doesnt “burn fat” it just increases the metabolism a little bit, and depending on your other calorific intake it MIGHT help you lose fat (lets face it you’re not gonna be losing any fat with a 5000 calorie diet, unless you’re a super competitive athlete)
nuts: nuts are SUPER dense in calories, you shouldnt stuff your face with them if you’re on a diet, nearly most of the calories in nuts come from fats. fat is the most calorie dense nutrient, get your calories else where, avoid nuts, use suppliments to get your EFAs.
Milk: even fat free milk has alotta calories, i have yet to read a scientific source saying that drinking milk increases your metabolism, but you should drink it because of the slow absorbing protein (Casien) and not because you think it’ll burn fat.
I drink skim milk (fat-free milk)....which has 90 calories. I don't think that's a lot at all. 2% milk and whole milk have more than a 100 calories.
I've read that green tea and honey are helpful in burning fat.
depends how much milk you're drinking, i usually drink 0% fat milk 500ml before bed for the casien, its got about 300kcl, everything you put in your mouth needs to be logged for calories, you burn fat when you eat below maintainence, 1 pound of fat = 3500 cals, so if your total deficit over a week is 3500, you'll lose a pound of fat (its a rule of thumb, you do lose some LBM, water weight etc etc, so overall weight reduction will be a little more, but only 1 pound of it will be fat)
green tea/extract is considered "negative calorie food" now those are the ones that actually do burn the fat in real sense, because when you eat it, the body uses more calories to metabolise it, than what you put in the mouth, theres other stuff like it "yerbamate" orange peel extract etc etc
