What is Metabolism and how to improve it naturally

Metabolism is referred as the rate at which person’s body burns calories for energy. The speed of metabolism depends on various factors such as age, physical activity levels, routine and genetics and other factors. In general and simple words, regular meals, good tight sleep, and exercise may all help to boost metabolism. However, the word metabolism is often used to describe your basal metabolic rate, or the number of calories your body burns at rest. The Metabolic rate and the calories burn at rest are directly proportional. The higher the metabolic rate, the more number of calories will burn.

Now, as per research, there are many proven ways through which metabolism of the body can be boosted. So here is the list of ways.

Eat well and always on time

We must always eat on time as our body is fully dependent on what we eat on daily basis. It is highly recommended that one must have a regular meal pattern which helps to reduce inflammation, improve rhythms, increases the body’s ability to deal with stress, and manage gut flora, the composition of bacteria that helps to keep the gut healthy.

High intensity workout

It is proven that few high intensity workout increases the metabolic rate which turns into burning the more body fat even after finishing up the workout.

Have a protein rich diet

Actually, few studies have come up with the fact that high protein rich diet causes the increase in TEF(thermic effect of food) and it is caused by the extra calories required to digest, absorb, and process the nutrients in your meal. Dietary protein requires 20 to 30% of its usable energy to be expended for metabolism. So, eating more protein can boost your metabolism so that you burn more calories.

Green Tea

Green tea extract is one of best and proven thing to improve the metabolism of the body. Green tea keeps the person hydrated and the antioxidants in green tea may help to reduce the risk of inflammation, cell damage, blood pressure, cholesterol. During Pregnancy, it should be avoided as it may interact with some medications.



Keep your body hydrated

Drinking more water may also temporarily increases your metabolism rate example- people who drink more water instead of sugary drinks are often more successful at losing weight and keeping it off. This is because sugary drinks contain more calories, so replacing them with water automatically reduces your calorie intake.   

Stressfree

Stress affects hormone levels and it can cause the body to produce more cortisol (hormone that regulate appetite) than usual. Unusually high cortisol levels have been found in people with disordered eating. Stress could also have an indirect impact by affecting eating patterns and sleep, both of which can alter the rate of metabolism.

Get good tight sleep

It has been found that People who take good tight sleep every night have a higher metabolic rate, and people with less sleep may have a lower metabolic rate. It is recommended that one must sleep for atleast 7 hours a day.

Coffee

It has been found that caffeine in coffee can help to boost metabolism on temporarily basis. If you have a goal of weight loss then it is important to mention about several studies have found that coffee’s effects on metabolism and fat burning may contribute to successful weight loss and maintenance.

Time to speed up metabolism can vary based on many different factors, including your:

Daily Diet plan

Physical Activity level

Overall Health status

Vitamins like B, B-12, Biotin,B-1,2,3,5,6 mineral, calcium, iron and spiced food(contains chillies) also plays an important role in boosting up the metabolism.
