A 12­week study by the University of Michigan found that rats fed tart cherries showed a 9 percent belly fat reduction. Moreover£¬the researchers noted that the cherry consumption had great ability to alter the expression of fat genes. Enjoy them during breakfast to kick your morning off right.

Sweet Potato

Sweet potatoes are packed with nutrients and can help you burn fat. They are high in fiber and have a low glycemic index(ѪÌÇÖ¸Êý)£¬which means they are absorbed slowly and keep you feeling full longer. Min Chen likes to use them to whip up a sweet potato hash. “I love any kind of this dish because it provides rich vitamins£¬minerals and fiber. It is very filling£¬which helps keep appetite and portions under control as the day goes on£¬”she says.

Bell Pepper

Green£¬red or yellow£¬fresh or frozen£¬peppers are never a bad companion for your eggs. Thanks to their high vitamin C content£¬eating them can help burn stored fat.
