Foods that will set your Metabolism on Fire and Boost your Energy All Day

3 foods that set your Metabolism on Fire and Boost your Energy All Day
 
 
1.    Steak/ Lean red meat: Recent studies show that you should eat lean red meat ONCE per week.(not everyday) Red meat contains creatine monohydrate, a common ingredient in body-building supplements. This nutrient helps your body use ATP to aid in the muscle-building and toning process, which in turn leads to a higher metabolism!
 
2.    Turkey: Turkey is a diet necessity. It is a great source of lean complete protein which helps you stay focused, and helps build muscle and helps increase your metabolism. There is a growing body of evidence indicating that the amino acid tryptophan (found in turkey) plays an important role in immune function, and in cancer prevention. As an added bonus, eating turkey also releases “happy hormones” such as serotonin into your blood stream, which actually has been shown to improve your mood.
3.    Vegetables: Vegetables are NECESSARY for maintaining a high metabolism, and contain high-quality fiber, vitamins, and minerals that you won’t be able to find in any pill or health supplement out there. Veggies are also extremely low in calories, so feel free to sneak extra veggies into your diet whenever you can!!
