The biggest mistake you can ever make in a quest to lose weight is to drastically cut out foods. Instead, be smart about what you consume, and how you store it.

Believe it or not but there are some foods that can actually spike your metabolism and eliminate toxins, making it easier for your body to shed those unwanted pounds. However, to get the maximum benefits from food it needs to be stored in the optimum temperature.

Here we reveal five key fat burning foods that will help boost your metabolism. We also reveal the wonder fridge by Samsung that will ensure everything you eat is the healthiest it can be…

Avocado

Avocados contain a very interesting carb called mannoheptulose, this sugar actually helps blunt insulin release and enhances calcium absorption, both of which are critical for encouraging fat loss. Try using avocado in an array of dishes from smoothies to salads, predominantly for morning or mid-day snacks and meals.

Brazil Nuts

Selenium is the main mineral found in Brazil nuts. Selenium is responsible for many amazing health benefits ranging from fighting off certain cancers and reducing LDL cholesterol levels. It also aids in balancing production of T4 and T3 in the thyroid, which are responsible for metabolism regulation. Incorporate Brazil nuts into your granola, or trail mix. You can even add them to muffins.

Chia Seeds

The benefits from Chia seeds are plentiful. By absorbing 10–12 times their weight and forming a gel in your stomach, Chia seeds can help curb your calorie intake by making you feel full longer. They also slow the digestive process that breaks down carbs and converts them to sugar, which means fewer carbs feeding your fat cells. Chia seeds are great for puddings and you can also sneak them into muffins and flavoured coconut yogurts.

Coconut Oil

Coconut oil’s benefits include increasing metabolism, as well as improving and regulating hormone and thyroid health. Coconut oil also helps to decrease hunger and curbs sugar cravings and lastly, it helps to stabilise blood sugar by promoting the efficient production and use of insulin. Try coconut oil on sweet potato pancakes, muffins and brownies. It also makes for a great Asian salad dressing. Fry your eggs in coconut oil for breakfast with a pinch of sea salt and freshly ground pepper.

Kale

Kale is not only packed full of fibre to help kick start your digestive system, but it is also packed full of phytochemicals, which are powerful in helping reduce nasty estrogen levels in the bloodstream as well as reduce the chance of many types of cancers developers. Try Kale in a green smoothie or even substitute it for spinach alongside your breakfast or dinner.
