Coffee
We all know that coffee offers plenty of health benefits and, luckily for caffeine lovers, one of them is that it boosts your metabolism instantly! A simple cup of coffee helps during the digestion process and makes your body burn fat for energy (instead of muscle mass).
Tea
If you’re not that much of a coffee fan, you can go for tea flavors which contain caffeine. As research has found, green tea also increases your metabolism by up to 10%, which helps you burn 100 extra calories per day! Of course, the effects vary from one person to another, but it’s definitely worth the try.
Legumes & Pulses
By comparison to other plant foods, legumes such as beans are very high in protein. These special properties help your body burn extra calories in a healthy way. Also, consuming legumes regularly improves the natural flora of your stomach and keeps a balance between healthy and unhealthy bacteria.
