3. Grapefruit - ZAPS the fat away!
Trying to lose weight doesn't have to be a bitter disappointment...with grapefruit, you can bring your metabolism to a whole new level. It's almost a hybrid mix of a pommelo and an orange, characterized by its bitter substances. Naringenin, the powerful flavonoid found in grapefruit that's responsible for its bitter taste, significantly boosts metabolism and stimulates fat loss in the liver. Whether chopped up in a healthy fruit salad for dessert or blended into a fat-burning smoothie, grapefruits are stellar for the metabolism and the body!
