20. Strawberries

Strawberries are great sources of fiber and nutrients essential for fighting fat and losing weight. These delicious fruits do this in any of three ways.

Firstly, strawberries increase the production of a hormone in our bodies responsible for stimulating metabolism and suppressing hunger. This allows our bodies to burn fat while keeping it in a state of fullness, lessening the number of times we eat all day.

Secondly, strawberries have been found to slow down the rate starchy foods are broken down and absorbed, controlling the spike in blood sugar.

Thirdly, strawberries help in the regulation of other weight reducing hormones, allowing the body to shed extra pounds by itself.
