Winter diet, what foods do we need?

Small tips to take advantage of the cold, the seasonality of fruit and vegetables, and some foods to enhance our diet, burn more calories, digest better in winter. What foods should be included in the winter diet?
Here is an unusual but absolutely useful list for those who want to pack less sweaters, have more energy and calories and raise their metabolism in the winter.

WINTER DIET: FOODS THAT HELP US LOSE WEIGHT
Coconut oil : you can find it organic or you can order it online. We can use it to cook vegetables in a pan or in the oven at medium-high temperatures, because it has a high smoke point. It is a very particular saturated fat, due to its unique medium-chain triglyceride structure, and is associated with an increase in metabolism and thermogenesis: I am talking here about all its benefits. Also excellent in shortbread and biscuits to replace butter in half: it makes them particularly fragrant.
Ginger and cinnamon : are spices that lower blood sugar, help keep cholesterol low, are natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory.I start by going slowly, of course, but a sprinkling of cinnamon on milk, in the morning, or in desserts, or on baked fruit (apples, pears), or ginger in stews and curries or vegetables, are excellent ways to take advantage these important spices. Garlic and citrus fruits: these are our two weapons to keep flu and colds away. Vitamin C, for example in citrus fruits, is antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, garlic is a powerful antibacterial. Both help the immune system, and thus the metabolism. For example, try making orange juice for yourself. Honey and ripe fruit:

we take sugar to keep the metabolism high from nature, through quality honey and ripe and sugary fruit, which we can consume after a protein or low-glycemic index meal (legumes and vegetables, meat or fish with vegetables) or at breakfast or in snacks. Excellent paired Greek yogurt (whole) and honey, for example.
Potatoes: often reviled, they are, together with other tubers, good sources of carbohydrates that can help us lose weight if eaten in place of bread, pasta or rice. In fact, potatoes have a high satiating power.
Seasonal vegetables:those with green leaves, as well as crucifers, should only be eaten cooked, because they are potentially goitrous if eaten raw. But this is the best time of the year to help us fill up earlier and increase regularity with these vegetables.
Quality Cheese: Butyric acid in cheeses and butter helps burn fat more easily, and in particular prevents insulin resistance, as this study pointed out.
