15 foods to jump start your metabolism!

Grapefruit-minus the sugar coat, lets not add a bad thing to a good one.
Green tea-iced or hot, contains natural antioxidant agents.
Yogurt-plain, but get creative.
Almonds-raw is recommended, but most all contain metabolism boosters.
Coffee-minus large amounts of sugar or milk, is a good thing. Coffee contains antioxidant benefits, boost energy, and is a diuretic. (makes you filter fluids faster)
Turkey- but be ready for a nap! The leaner, the less sodium, the better.
Apples-not incorporated in a pie or sugary sauce. Raw is always the safest bet, so top with a tbs. of peanut butter for a little added protein, and enjoy!
Spinach-cooked, or uncooked, contains numerous amounts of health benefits, such as promotes strong bones. (like Popeye!)
Beans-kidney,black,lentil...you get it.
Jalapeno-Yum!
Broccoli-can get boring, but avoid the ranch, and try hummus instead. Not impressed, try tossing it in a salad or stir fry.
Soy milk-can be very enjoyable and health beneficial, as in everything, the least amount of sugar content is always better, try vanilla or chocolate flavored soy to ease into the difference in taste.
Curry-the perfect touch to almost any meal, such as veggies, meats, or rice dishes, easy to incorporate with an alarmingly delicious taste.
Cinnamon-natural preservative, which has anti-fungal properties that assist in digestion and E. coli balance in your intestine. (That's right, you have E.coli living in your intestine.)

Incorporate these foods into your diet for a flatter belly:
(in moderation of course)

Olive oil-1 tbs.
Dark chocolate-1 serving, or 1/4 a cup (DONE!)
Nuts-2 tbs.
Avocado-1/4 a cup

DON'T FEAR FAT, to an extent. These 4 power foods are healthy monounsaturated fats that actually promote the break down of "bad" fat stored under your external fat(the fat you can see). Bad fat surrounds your organs and disrupts their functioning powers, so you don't want this fat hugging your organs (or hips). Mono-fats help break down that bad fat, resulting in a healthier, flatter stomach, as well as a healthier heart.
