These 10 natural fat burners will turn your metabolism to full-throttle

ONIONS AND GARLIC - multifunctional and HEALTHY!

Onions might cause a few tears, but they also help the pounds melt away. Thanks to the sulfur compound allicin found in onions, scallions and even more so in garlic, these healthy bulbs help blood circulation, aid digestion and act as natural diuretics. And all of these health benefits lead to a boosted metabolism. 

Instead of worrying about the way they make your breath smell, start thinking about the way they'll make you feel when you lose weight. Add raw onions to salads or sandwiches, or saute them for omelets and stir fries. Garlic is a common ingredient in many savory dishes—try it with roasted garlic mashed potatoes, or add it to homemade hummus. Anything goes!
