Do you have a slow metabolism?

MY TOP 8 metabolism boosting foods:

  1. Protein rich foods such as fish, eggs, nuts and seeds. (Because they require your body to use more energy to digest them vis the thermic effect of food)

  2. Chili Peppers.
    (Capsaicin, a chemical found in chili peppers, can boost your metabolism by slightly increasing the rate at which your body burns calories)

  3. Coffee (bulletproof, black or dash of milk).
    (The caffeine found in coffee can help increase metabolic rate)

  4. Ginger (and similiar spices).
    (Can have particularly beneficial metabolism-boosting properties and also can decrease levels of hunger and enhance feelings of satiety)

  5. Cacao (like my homemade raw treats in the picture).
    (Can promote the reaction of genes that stimulate fat burning and benefit your metabolism)

  6. MCT oil (medium-chain triglyceride).
    (Can increase metabolic rate and unlike long-chain fats, once MCTs are absorbed, they go directly to the liver to be turned into energy and less likely to be stored as body fat. MCT oil can also increase ghrelin, the satiety hormone).

  7. Apple Cider Vinegar.
    (Can help in increasing the amount of fat burned for energy)

  8. Drinking water.
    (Can briefly boost metabolism by up to 30% and about 40% of that increase is explained by the additional calories needed to heat the water to body temperature)
