can someone list foods that increase metabolism?!
is there someone that can confirm this?
thanks much
Answers:
Possibly, but by such a minimal amount there is no effect.
First, eating regularly (small amounts) does boost your metabolism, because your body doesn't conserve calories as it doesn't think it will be starved.
Green tea (apparently)
But eating things such as lots of vegetables with meals, and fibre helps. The vegetables contains minerals and sugars that your body knows what to do with, so it uses them. AKA metabolizes into energy. Also, replacing regular bread with whole grains etc (fibre content) speeds everything inside up.
There really isn't a wonder food, despite all these girly mags. It depends on your diet in general. Keep the healthy stuff high - as i said, your body knows what to do with it, so it's continuously being metabolized. Stuff like bulk candy is digested and pretty much stored as fat. Simple as.
If your looking to boost your metabolism, just replace junk with fruits, veggies, nuts and lean meats. (The protein encourages muscle growth, muscles use more calories up than fat)
Possibly, because they make your body produce heat, which requires energy. But I would recommend high-fibre vegetables for best results.
water, bread, rice, spicy food does as well. it makes your body use more engergy by increasing body temp.
go see a doctor
