Six Tips to Increase Your Metabolism

Metabolism is the procedure in which the body burns down calories and converts them into energy. In other words, our organism is consuming "fuel" in order to support all the necessary bodily functions.

People who have the privilege to have better metabolism, burn fat more easily and worry less about the amount and the quality of food they intake. It is true that some have the genetic gift to have better metabolism than others. However, there are certain ways to improve your metabolism. I give you ten tips to help you towards that direction and I would advise you to follow as many as possible:

1) Eat Less but More Often.
If you manage to adopt new eating habits you will notice the changes in your body almost immediately! Eating less and more often gives your body the opportunity to metabolize the exact amount of food it needs without storing it as fat.

2) Importance of a High Quality Breakfast
Breakfast is without a doubt the most important meal of the day. In the morning, after a good night sleep the organism stays without nutrients for over eight hours. So, it is essential to provide yourself with a high quality breakfast.

3) Increase Protein Intake and Reduce Carbohydrates
Protein is the core of the muscular system. Add more protein to build more muscle and reduce fat. People with a higher muscle percentage develop better metabolism.

4) Essential Vitamins
Vitamins and especially the vitamins of the B-complex plus E and C are crucial for your metabolism process. They work as antioxidants therefore they play a very significant role as fat burners.

5) Green Tea and Coffee
You have probably heard of various side-effects of coffee. However, if you consume it limited, let's say one cup every morning you will get all the benefits. Studies have shown that coffee helps increase metabolism. Green tea is used as a natural fat burner and is being suggested from experts to people who are trying to lose weight.

6) Exercise and Workout
This is maybe the most important factor among all. Exercise and regular workout triggers your metabolism the right way, burns extra calories, creates muscle and is your ultimate weapon against fat. To understand the essence of workout and especially workout with weights, I must note that one pound of muscle burns nine times more calories than a pound of fat. While you build muscle your metabolism ratio accelerates in the same time!

Follow these simple tips and I am sure that you will start to notice the first results sooner than you think.

Keep those muscles pumping!
