Fruits are an excellent addition to a healthy diet, especially if you're looking to burn fat. They are typically low in calories and high in fibre, vitamins, and antioxidants, making them a nutritious choice for anyone aiming to manage their weight and improve overall health.

Here are eight of the best fruits that can help you burn fat suggested by Indore-based nutritionist Priyanka Kumar.

Grapefruit: Grapefruit is known for its fat-burning properties due to its high levels of vitamin C and low glycemic index. It helps control insulin levels and can boost metabolism.

Berries: Berries are rich in fibre, antioxidants, and vitamins. They can help reduce cravings, improve digestion, and enhance fat loss. They also have a low calorie count and can improve insulin sensitivity.

Apples: Apples are high in fibre, particularly pectin, which helps you feel full longer. They also have a low calorie count and can help regulate blood sugar levels, making them an excellent choice for fat loss.

Pears: Pears are high in fibre, which can aid in digestion and help you feel full longer. They are also a good source of vitamin C and potassium, which can support overall health and fat metabolism.

Oranges: Oranges are another citrus fruit that is high in vitamin C and fibre. They help boost metabolism and are low in calories, making them a great addition to a fat-burning diet.

Avocados: While technically a fruit, avocados are high in healthy fats and fibre. They can help reduce appetite and increase feelings of fullness, which can lead to reduced calorie intake and fat loss.

Watermelon: This fruit is low in calories and high in water content, which can help keep you hydrated and full. It also contains an amino acid called arginine, which has been shown to reduce body fat in some studies.

Kiwi: Kiwis are nutrient-dense, high in fibre, and low in calories. They are rich in vitamins C and K, and their fibre content can help with digestion and satiety, aiding in fat loss.

Tips for including fruits in your diet

Eat fruits whole: Eating whole fruits rather than drinking fruit juices can help you get more fibre and feel full longer.

Incorporate in meals: Add fruits to your breakfast, salads, or as snacks throughout the day.

Balance with protein and healthy fats: Combine fruits with protein (like yogurt or nuts) and healthy fats (like avocado) for balanced meals that help with satiety and fat burning.

Remember, while fruits can aid in fat loss, it's essential to maintain a balanced diet and regular exercise for the best results.
