Themogenic foods essentially take more energy to process/digest than what they provide, so they help raise your metabolism and burn body fat. Here is a list of the top ten thermogenic fruits and vegetables:

1. Cruciferous Vegetables (Broccoli, Cauliflower, Cabbage)
2. Asparagus
3. Leafy Greens (lettuce, spinach, kale, ect.)
4. Celery
5. Mushrooms
6. Chili peppers
7. Apples
8. Berries
9. Apricots/Peaches
10. Pears

3 cups Broccoli = 3 french fries = 7 jellybeans = 7 cups of mushrooms = 1 marshmallow= 14 cups of lettuce
