12 Healthy Foods That Help You Burn Fat

Coconut Oil

Coconut oil is costlier than regular oil because of its benefits and relative scarcity. Most of the fats in coconut oil are medium-chain triglycerides which help with burning fat and reducing your appetite. Including it in your diet can help you lose weight and build good cholesterol while reducing harmful triglycerides.

A study found that [3] male obese participants who took two spoons of coconut oil every day lost an average of 2.5 centimeters from their waist. They did not need to exercise or make any dietary modification to achieve this.

While coconut oil can help increase fat metabolism, studies suggest that its effect cannot be sustained for long periods. In any case, you can benefit from its fat-burning effects while it lasts by consuming two tablespoons of coconut oil every day.
