Simple Ways To Boost Your Metabolism

Simple Ways To Boost Your Metabolism
It has been found that certain chemical compounds in some
foods and beverages are able to stimulate your metabolism
causing you to burn more body fat than usual. Below are
just a few easy things you can add to your diet to help
burn off those extra calories that can slowly add up over
the weeks.

1. Green Tea

Drinking green tea throughout the day can help you to burn
an extra 70 to 100 extra calories a day through an effect
known as thermogenesis which is the process of heat
production in living organisms as well as providing
numerous health benefits. Studies also suggest that the
chemical EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate) which is found in
green tea is responsible for the tea's fat burning
properties.

The fat burning property that green tea promotes is called
thermogenesis which causes more body fat to get burnt to
supply fuel for your cells. Green Tea increases the bodies
energy expenditure and also increases fat oxidation which
is needed to convert fat into energy.

A European study that ran over over 3 days, in which a
total of 10 men were given caffeine, placebos, and EGCG (in
the amount found in several cups of green tea). The result
was that the men who were given the EGCG burned more total
calories (80) each day while the other two groups came out
equal.

Athought it does increase fat loss, green tea should not be
considered a single solution to weight loss, but it does
help in the reduction of fat tissue by thermogenesis which
it has been proven to promote. Other than it's fat burning
properties, green tea has also been shown to be beneficial
for problems such as bad breath, blood sugar, cholesterol,
dental cavities and it's powerful antioxidant properties
help prevent cell damage.

2. Cayenne Pepper

The second wonderful metabolism booster is cayenne pepper
which is made from dried ripe pepper caspsicum.

Several scientific studies have suggested that certain
chemical compounds in cayenne pepper also have the ability
to increase the body's heat production (thermogenesis),
thereby increasing the rate of metabolism of carbohydrates
and fats similar in effect to green tea. Additional
research also indicates that cayenne pepper increases
production of certain chemicals in the body that decrease
or suppress appetite.

For people that are on diets it has been suggested that
adding between 5 and 10 grams of cayenne pepper to a meal
or roughly 27 grams to an entire day's diet will
significantly reduce hunger after meals and reduce the
amount of calories consumed during subsequent meals.

Cayenne pepper is also considered one of the healthiest
herbs available. Use it as much as you can if you can stand
the heat. Taking this super fat burning drink several times
a day is a great way to help get your 8 plus glasses of
water each day and to help shed those extra unwanted pounds.

3. Fat Burning Super Drink

A good way to take cayenne pepper is to put a small amount
into a glass of green tea. This drink is considered one of
the best natural fat burners and it has also been known to
significantly reduce appetite in some dieters.
