Why do people get fat? There are many reasons:
1. Taking in too much food, your body then converts it and stores it in the form of fat.
2. A slow metabolism, where you aren't really eating that much, but you don't burn up the food efficiently.
3. Inactivity, if you don't move around enough, your body just can't burn up the food that it takes in during the day.
4. There are some medical conditions that may also cause obesity.
Fat Burning Foods
Here is a list of foods that will wake up your metabolism and help you flush fat out of your system.
Citrus fruits like, oranges, grapefruit, tangerines, lemons, and limes contain high concentrations of Vitamin C (this is also called ascorbic acid). This Vitamin C has a fat burning quality.
Eat soybeans at least 3 times a week and you'll be boosting your bodies ability to get rid of fat. You can find soybeans in most health food stores.
Apples contain a chemical call pectin. This chemical is found in most berries, and fresh fruit. The pectin is in the cell walls of most fruits, especially apples. Pectin limits the amount of fat your cells can absorb. This will put a natural limitation on the amount of fat your cells can absorb.
