Description

If you're looking for fresh garlic, go to the farmers market! Otherwise, pick up pickled garlic, which is great as part of an antipasto platter, or even in a creative cocktail.

Garlic is a natural antibiotic, a blood sugar regulator, and also works like a thermogenic in the body. It boosts metabolism and keeps insulin levels low to maximize fat burning. (via Lady Thrills)

An apple a day...

Melissa's Produce - Citrus Crate

First to recommend

Description

Oranges can be eaten in many ways -- juiced, peeled and eaten fresh -- but why waste the peel? Peter Tutera suggests using the halves of orange peels as "bowls" for a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

In citrus fruits, it's the vitamin C that is the fat-burning component because it reduces fat’s effectiveness and can liquefy or dilute it so that it exits the body. Add some lemon to your water, drink orange juice, and eat grapefruit in the morning. (via Lady Thrills)
