Dieting Got You Down? Speed Up Metabolism Instead.

Dieting Got You Down? Speed Up Metabolism Instead.

By:


If dieting has slowed your metabolism down, not to worry. You CAN speed your metabolism up again.

Your body is designed to survive food shortages by slowing down your metabolism under starvation conditions. It's pretty smart that way. But in modern times too much food, is the problem. And when you diet your body produces fat storage hormones, just the opposite of what you want it to do!

As smart as your body is, you need to learn to outsmart it. Through scientific discoveries, trial and error, and observing what works, some people have learned how to work with the body's fat burning and storage mechanism to trick it into producing the hormones you want, the ones that will cause you to readily lose weight and keep it off for good.

There are many ways to restore your metabolism back to a normal healthy state so that you can continue to lose weight or break that weight loss plateau. There are certain foods that have been shown to raise metabolism, but that is only a small part of how you use food to lose weight.

You can include metabolism boosting foods in your diet such as yogurt, almonds, apples, grapefruit, oatmeal, beans, spinach, and turkey. Eating spices such as cinnamon, curry, and hot peppers have been shown to speed up metabolism. Both coffee and green tea can increase your metabolism, but drink in moderation so you don't get too hooked on the caffeine. Grapefruit has unique metabolism boosting properties, but is known to interact with some medications, so please check your medicine cabinet first. Coconut oil has an unfounded bad reputation, but is actually a very healthy fat that boosts your metabolism.

Your grandmother was right. You shouldn't skip breakfast! The act of eating breakfast increases your metabolism.

Exercise, especially strength training, will speed up metabolism. The more muscle you have, the more fat you burn around the clock, not just when you are exercising.

By all means, incorporate any metabolism boosting foods in your diet if you enjoy them. But by far, the more important thing you can do with food is use it to manipulate your body into producing fat burning hormones in ample amounts. You can do this by eating the right kinds of food, in the right balance, at the right frequency. Once you learn this way of eating your body will burn fat 24/7 so that you can take the weight off and keep it off while eating plenty of food you love.
