I think just having a good breakfast in the morning, and 4 -5 small meals after. that contains alot of fruits and veggies and no processed foods. will boost your metabolism. it works for me

I don't think it's as much about certain foods as long it's healthy food. It's more about how often you eat to keep your metabolism running in high gear. Limiting carbs in the evening when your about to shut down. Then, revving your system in the morning to keep it going all day. I find eating slow release foods like oatmeal a good way to keep my system fueled. Eating every few hours in between to keep your body from ever feeling deprived and going at its optimum capacity.

Food can't do it alone through, exercising is the other half of that equation. Rev in the morning and keep it going all day with whatever you can do.
