Garlic

Garlic may not be a typical "volume vegetable," but it’s a powerful metabolism booster. The sulfur compounds it contains, especially allicin, stimulate fat burning and circulation, have anti-inflammatory properties, and strengthen the immune system. Garlic can also help stabilize blood sugar levels, which prevents cravings. When enjoyed in moderation, it can enhance any vegetable dish and indirectly support weight loss.
