 Posted: Fri Nov 14, 2008 5:55 am Post subject: How can I increase my metabolism? |
 |
|
| I sparingly eat bad carbs (white rice, bread, cookies, cakes,..), pork and fats from meat and the only sugars that I take each day are from fruits and from the 3 oreo cookies that I eat. I exercise 3 times a week--1 hour of treadmill, some weights and sit-ups. I have psoriasis so I take a lot of supplements everyday (EPA and DHA, lactobacillus, vitamin C, coconut oil..).I count the calories that I take everyday and it ranges from 1500-2200 cal. I read that my reccomended calorie intake is 2000.But I am still chubby and constantly gaining weight.Is the problem my metabolism? how can I solve my problem? |

| Green tea is the best way. It is a very popular ingredient in most slimming pills. It tastes terribly at first but if you get use to it and drink at least 4 cups a day you will see the results in less than a month. Promise! |

| METABOLISMSimply counting calories will not lead to body fat loss. The heat liberated from a particular food, whether it is fat, protein, or carbohydrate, is determined by its particular molecular structure, and this structure determines its thermogenic effect. The higher the thermogenic effect of any particular food, the higher your metabolic rate. Know what you are consuming, but more importantly, know how your body will use your consumed calories. A method of determining the “fuel mix” being used has been developed, called the respiratory quotient (RQ), which gives us a way to measure the relative amounts of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins being burned for energy.Additional Tips on Sound Nutrition: •Eliminate junk food. Most fast food, along with most pastries and processed foods, contain high amounts of fat, sodium and sugar (usually simple sugars). None of these qualities is beneficial to any athlete. Consuming these foods does little for your energy, except promote a rise and then subsequent drop in your blood sugar levels. •Drink eight to ten glasses of water each day. This will ensure you're replacing fluids lost during exercise. You need not wait until you are thirsty. By then you are already dehydrated. Drink these glasses of water throughout the day, not all at once. •Determine your daily protein requirements. As you already know, small amounts of protein should be available to your muscle tissue throughout the day for optimum growth and recovery. Proteins that include the essential amino acids (those that your body does not manufacture) are of utmost importance. Protein powder provides a great means of obtaining additional quality protein. The Hatfield Estimate Procedure for Determining Daily Protein Requirements will help you determine how much protein your body needs. •Consume high-fiber foods. Not only does a fiber-rich diet help reduce cholesterol, it also lowers the glycemic response of your meals and promotes efficient digestion. Fiber will be discussed later in this unit. •Increase your lean body weight through resistance training. The more lean weight you have, the more efficient your body moves and the higher your metabolism becomes. Your bones become denser and your muscles, tendons, and ligaments strengthen. The great side effect is that it is easier to avoid gaining excess body fat. Remember, bigger muscles burn more calories than little ones. |

It helps in building muscle tissue. More muscles burn more fat and increases your metabolism. Calories from the protein rich foods are much harder for the body to breakdown and process.Protein is a good appetite suppressant. ---------- High fiber foods-Fiber is digested slower, keeps us feeling fuller longer and releases its energy slower which keep our blood sugar levels even and helps us avoid cravings. http://weightlossweightloss.blogspot.com/ http://weightlossweightloss.blogspot.com/2008/04/increase-metabolism.h tml |
