Metabolism Boosters - 1

Most dieters habitually dream about having a better metabolism to lose weight. There are the usual  fads that  out there but really there are a few things that you can do to increase your metabolic rate. Just note that there’s still work involved when you are losing weight. Metabolism boosters are not the magic bullet!


Here’s a few that have been clinically studied for efficacy. Some do more than others and some are certainly better for your health than others, which I'll discuss.

Do Interval training— what this is, is simply exercising normally and adding some fast-paced segments into your routine. Interval training can raise your metabolic rate higher than a steady cardio workout can. Read, Ready, Set, Go by Phil Campbell, for the specifics.
Drink Green Tea—Studies have found that people who drank three to five cups daily for three months cut 5 percent off their body weight. You can also take this in supplemental form. Green tea contains ECGC, a plant compound that promotes a better metabolism. Green tea is also being studied for preventing cancer, another good bonus for consuming it


More to come later in the week.
