Fat Burning Foods Post-Workout
26. Watermelon
Watermelons are rich in carbs, dietary fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. It is one of the best post-workout foods as it replenishes the sugar in the blood stream but does not spike the blood glucose levels. The antioxidants help to reduce inflammation and therefore prevents inflammation-induced weight gain. You can have fresh watermelon or freshly pressed watermelon juice with a little lime juice.
27. Berries
Berries are rich in vitamin C, antioxidants, minerals, and dietary fiber that help to reduce inflammation, add bulk to stool, regulate blood glucose levels, and help to lose weight (28). Have a cup of strawberry, raspberry, or blueberry juice with milk or honey after working out.
28. Apples
Apples are rich in nutrients such as vitamin A and C, phosphorus, magnesium, dietary fiber, antioxidants, and other nutrients that help to scavenge the harmful oxygen radicals, lowers cholesterol, and reduce weight. Have an apple or add the fruit to your post-workout drink to replenish the energy deficiency.
