Red chili peppers - The spicy peppers can kick-start your metabolism. This is because they are loaded with capsaicin. You can add red pepper in its ground form to soups, marinades and sauces.

Kale - It is high in fiber and low in calories. Kale can help fill you up to curb your hunger. It is also a rich source of vitamin A, vitamin K and vitamin C that boosts the body’s immune and detoxification systems. Eat kale on its own or add it to pasta, salad, soups and other main dishes.

Almonds - These bite-sized nuts pack a punch of protein that helps curb hunger between meals.
