Foods that help with your metabolism and give you energy

2 MORE foods that set your Metabolism on Fire and Boost your Energy All Day!

1.    Water: A recent study showed that drinking COLD water frequently throughout your day (at least 6 – 8 glasses) actually increases your average metabolic rate by nearly 25%.  Another study also showed that dehydration leads to over-eating, because thirst is often misinterpreted as hunger cravings. Hungry when you shouldn’t be? Try drinking a glass of water!  Chances are that you were actually thirsty, not hungry. Staying hydrated also increases your body’s ability to move nutrients around faster, eliminate toxins, and also prevents fatigue and bloating by flushing excess water from your system.

 

2.    Whey Protein: Whey protein (comes from cows) is a complete, high-quality protein. It is also one of the best fuels for your metabolism.  Not only does whey protein boost your metabolism into high gear, but it also helps your body feel fuller longer.  Mix half a scoop into your oatmeal in the morning for the ultimate fat-burning breakfast.
