Fat Burning Food - Coffee

Fat Burning Food - Coffee

I’m sure that many of you will be VERY happy to see this one on the list.

I am.  I LOVE Coffee!

Unfortunately, we are not referring to the milkshakes that pass for coffee in many of the so-called coffee bars today.  Much like cinnamon, we often add far too many fattening things to coffee to ever call it healthy.

But most of you already know that.  What you may not realize is that coffee — plain old coffee — is generally considered to be good for your health and has been cited as a fat burning food.

The caffeine in coffee helps to kick up your metabolism.  Caffeine can also jump-start lipolysis – that’s the breakdown of fat.

One to two cups a day is ideal.  Or you can add coffee to other foods during the day as shown below in our delicious recipes.

Enjoy

cinnamon[1]Adding 1/4 to 1 teaspoon of cinnamon to something you eat every day can help blood sugar get into your cells to be used for energy.  That means less is stored as fat. 

There is a whole scientific explanation behind it, I am sure.  But do we really need to know that? 

The main problem with cinnamon is that we typically enjoy it on foods that are LOADED with fat and calories (Cinnamon Sweet Rolls, anyone?) 

So the problem becomes getting the fat burning power of cinnamon without adding massive amounts of fat in the process.

Consider adding a dash to your morning coffee.  Or your oatmeal or yogurt.  

Or give these two recipes a try:
