Burn Fat When You Sleep with These Foods

Here are the 10 best foods that burn fat at night:

1. STRING CHEESE

Is string cheese good for fat loss?

Not only is string cheese incredibly tasty, but it can also aid in fat loss. It is very low in calories (most brands of string cheese contain less than 80 calories per serve) and high in protein. String cheese also doesn’t contain any carbs, meaning it’s an amazing for keto eating before bed.

It is believed that your metabolic rate increases when you eat enough calcium and since string cheese contains 200mg per serve, it is the perfect snack-sized calcium bomb.

2. ALMONDS

Are almonds fat burners? According to a study conducted by Journal of the American Heart Association, eating just 1.5 ounces (40 grams) of almonds a day, along with an otherwise healthy and active lifestyle, can lead to a reduction of bad cholesterol levels, improvement of your lipid profile and greater weight loss.

3. AVOCADOS

Avocados are a well-known superfood. They are really high in fat and low in carbs, making them the perfect addition to anyone on the ketogenic diet. Avocados are also rich in fiber which means they keep you full for longer and you won’t wake up starving.

If you’re not too big on eating avocados on their own, try making tasty guacamole out of them or mixing them with the next fat burning food on the list: Cottage cheese.

Avocado before bed can seriously aid in weight loss so why not try adding it to your diet now?

4. COTTAGE CHEESE

Research by the British Journal of Nutrition has shown that eating full-fat cottage cheese before going to bed can help you lose weight. The reason for that is that cottage cheese is extremely high in protein which releases to the body slowly and aids in restoring and building your muscle mass while you sleep.

Cottage cheese contains only 2.7g of net carbs per 100 grams making it a great keto-friendly fat burning snack that’s also very cheap to buy.

Plain cottage cheese can taste quite bland, to make it more delicious, try adding some, salt, pepper, and cucumber for a tasty snack.

5. CITRUS FRUIT ESPECIALLY GRAPEFRUIT

Citrus fruits help temporarily increase your metabolic rate which makes your body burn fat faster. While all citrus fruits have fat-burning benefits, the best one of them to eat specifically for weight loss is grapefruit.

Grapefruit also helps regulate blood sugar levels which makes it easier to avoid cravings for sweet sugary foods.

6. LENTILS

Cooked lentils are a fantastic source of fiber (containing a whopping 9 grams of fiber per 1/2 cup of green lentils) which means they will make you feel full for longer. They also contain a very high amount of protein, making them a great substitute for meat and poultry if you are a vegetarian.

According to an 18-month study, volunteers who increased their consumption of pulses lost more weight and especially belly fat than those who did not consume as many pulses.

7. EGGS

Eggs are essential for anyone looking to lose weight. Not only are they low in calories, with less than 80 calories per egg, they are also packed with protein (about 6 grams of protein per whole egg) and amino acid leucine.

Leucine is an important amino acid that helps your body increase its muscle mass by aiding in protein synthesis and increase your metabolic rate by having a higher percentage of muscle.

8. GREEK YOGURT

Full-fat yogurt is a powerhouse of protein, probiotics, and healthy fats. Studies have shown that eating three servings of yogurt a day can lead to increased weight loss.

So enjoy a tub of about 6 ounces (170g) of plain greek yogurt before bed to increase your body’s ability to burn more fat.

9. CHICKEN

There’s a reason why chicken makes an appearance in many ketogenic dinners. Not only is chicken incredibly cheap and easy to make, but it is also packed full of lean proteins.

The best way to enjoy chicken breast and get the most out of its fat-burning benefits is to grill it. That way you maintain all the nutrients without adding any high carb or high-fat extras to it.

10. BLUEBERRIES

A 100 gram serving of blueberries contains only 57 calories and 2.4g of dietary fiber, making them a great low-calorie snack. Studies performed on laboratory rats found that blueberries helped them lose abdominal fat and lower their cholesterol.
