How To Boost Your Metabolism

How to boost your metabolism
How many of us notice that some people can eat tonnes of food and stay slim, whilst some find it extremely hard to even drop a couple of pounds? Although genetics can play a small role in how efficiently our body can burn calories, our lifestyles are what really makes the difference (every pound of muscle burns 35 calories a day, whereas every pound of fat burns just 2 calories a day).

There are simple changes you can make to your diet, exercise regime and sleeping patterns that can kick-start your metabolism, giving you the results you’ve been striving for. Here’s how to boost your metabolism, naturally:

The right kind of training
Doing the right kind of cardio can help your metabolism rise not only for the duration of the workout, but a long time afterwards as well. An oxygen deficit is created when we train intensely and our muscles scream for more O2. To compensate, we go through “Excess post-Exercise Oxygen Consumption”. In simpler terms, our bodies are burning calories even after we have stopped the workout.

A type of exercise which does this is high intensity interval training, or HIIT for short. It consist of short, sharp bursts of exercise followed by less strenuous exercise or rest. The idea behind it is you can train hard for a short amount of time and still get great results compared to jogging on the treadmill or another low/medium intensity exercise with consistent pace. For example, if you repeatedly sprinted for 30 seconds and then walked for 30 seconds over a period of ten minutes, you will get your heart racing and burn those all-important calories quicker, stimulating EPOC via

Stimulate Thyroid to Burn Fat

Hypothyroidism is generally treated with a single daily dose of levothyroxine, given as a tablet. An experienced physician can prescribe the correct form and dosage to return the thyroid balance to normal. Older patients who may have underlying heart disease are usually started at a low dose and gradually increased while younger healthy patients can be started on full replacement doses at once. Thyroid hormone acts very slowly in some parts of the body, so it may take several months after treatment for some features to improve. Levothyroxine tablets come in 12 different strengths, and it is essential to take them in a consistent manner every day. A dose of thyroid hormone that is too low may fail to prevent enlargement of the thyroid gland, allow symptoms of hypothyroidism to persist, and be associated with increased serum cholesterol levels, which may increase the risk for atherosclerosis and heart disease. A dose that is too high can cause symptoms of hyperthyroidism, create ...
