Top 10 Tips For Losing Weight - This Is How To Speed Up Your Metabolism And Lose Weight Fast!

If you want to lose weight, eating less may not enough. A low-calorie diet doesn't always produce the desired results. Many people can not lose weight even if they follow a strict diet. The problem in this case is not only the thyroid gland, but also what is called "intermediary metabolism", which is the mechanism that burns sugars, fats and proteins that are contained in food. The foods we eat are broken down into simple substances to get absorbed by the body. However, the mechanism of metabolism is influenced by the production of hormones and by our food choices. Eating excessive fat, protein and carbohydrates can crash the adrenals, liver and pancreas and block the hormone secretion. Even accumulated toxins and waste in the body can cause blockages in hormones secretion, which lead to a slow metabolism.

Top 10 Tips For Losing Weight:

1.    Eat spicy foods: spicy foods can make you sweat and can help increase your metabolism.
2.    Sleep well at night: Research shows that people who do not sleep enough tend to gain weight.
3.    Drink more water: Water is the lubricant of the body. It also carries away toxins and enables the liver to metabolize the fat reserves.
4.    Consume small meals: Eating 5-6 small meals a day prevents hunger, allows the body to have energy and keeps the digestive system active, which can help you burn calories.
5.    Do not skip meals: Skipping meals to lose weight is counterproductive, because it decreases metabolism and may also lead to eating more food during the day.
6.    Avoid foods high in purines, which are substances that the body struggles to convert into energy and to get rid of. These foods can cause fatigue, fluid retention and weight gain. Try to stay away from herring, shellfish, lentils and nuts.
7.    Drink green tea: It has been shown that it increases your metabolism without stressing the body (unlike caffeine).
8.    Increase your intake of fruits, vegetables and whole foods: This will provide you with a balanced supply of energy, without causing sudden changes in blood sugar levels.
9.    Reduce, but do not completely eliminate the intake of fat (at least 15% of calories should come from fat) and consume mainly unsaturated fatty acids.
10.    Prefer foods of a low glycemic index, rather than simple carbs (which raise blood sugar). The best time to eat a meal rich in complex carbohydrates is approximately 1 hour after exercise (the body can use the calories to create muscle tissue). If you increase the level of insulin when the energy reserves of the body are empty, like after a workout, the nutrients will be absorbed by the cells of the muscle. On the contrary if you increase insulin when energy reserves are full, the substances will be sent to fat cells and will get stored as fat.
