Green tea – contains polyphenols like flavonoids and catechins, which function as powerful antioxidants in our body. Studies show green tea can boost the metabolic rate and increase fat burning in our body.

Ginger –  helps ease indigestion as well as reduce gas and bloating. The spicy component of ginger can also rev up your internal fire along with upping your metabolism.
