5 Smart ways to Boost Your Metabolism Like a Pro

In this post, let discuss on 5 Smart ways to Boost Your Metabolism Like a Pro. God designed our wonderful bodies with a special process called metabolism. Your metabolism is what converts food into fuel. It also affects how efficiently you burn that fuel. 

The calories you get form the food you eat are converted in energy that you can use. Metabolism establishes the rate at which we burn our calories it is also the key to losing weight and keeping it off. 

If you are eating less or cutting back on the calories, and the scale doesn’t move it may be a sign of a sluggish metabolism. A sluggish metabolism is not a curse of midlife, as many like to call it, but a fact that your metabolic rate naturally slows down as you get older. It is God’s reminder that you are not immortal. If you feel tired and don’t have the energy to get through your day, your metabolic rate may be sluggish.

Use these 5 tips to rev up your metabolism and be more energetic.

1. Move more: Get up and move. When you do your heart and your body will thank you. Ongoing research at the Mayo Clinic has found that you can burn almost an additional 1,000 calories a day simply by getting off your buns and moving around more. 

The researchers call this Non Exercise Activity Thermogenesis (NEAT). NEAT research shows that metabolic rates increase when you move around more. The evidence suggests that if you do a task while standing and pacing (walking around) you can burn at least 100 more calories than you can by doing the same task and just sitting. Motion fitness is the best cure for sitting sickness (couch potato syndrome). Get up and move more.

2. Walk more. Be intentional and walk. Use the stairs and not just down. Park further away than you normally do to get to your destination. Be heart smart and take a brisk walk for 30 minutes daily. To make sure your own workout is sufficiently strenuous and your metabolic rate is increasing, try talking during your workout.

3. Exercise more. Aerobic exercise can be somewhat like shopping on coupon day. If buy one item (A) at full price you get a second item (B) of equal value for free. Here is how it works. There are the calories that you burn while working out, but because your metabolic rate stays elevated, you continue to burn the extra calories after the work out is over.

Researchers call this the after burn. It’s your added bonus for speeding up your metabolism.

4. Flavor more. You can spice up your meals, which should be fiber rich vegetables and grains, to speed up your metabolism with peppery spices. Chili peppers, ginger, and turmeric, cayenne pepper, have all been found to give a metabolic boost. They make your food more flavorful, and have an added effect of reducing your food cravings and giving you phytonutrients. Enjoy this with green tea which contains EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate). EGCG is an antioxidant that has the same calorie burning effect as hot peppers.

5. Eat more. Eat small, but frequent, meals help to keep your metabolism running at optimum level. This means you burn more calories. When too much time elapses between meals your metabolism slows down to compensate. To avoid slowing down of your metabolism snack on low-calorie, high-protein foods, and get up and move.

These 5 tips will help you feel more energetic, and are just a few of the many ways you can boost your sluggish metabolism.
