5 Ways to speed up your metabolism

The body’s metabolism plays a major role in our quest to lose weight. The rate of our metabolism determines the rate at which we burn calories which ultimately boils down to weight loss.
The following steps will help speed up your metabolism:
1. Engage in an intense workout. The more intense your work out sessions is, the faster your metabolism and the more you lose weight which continues even after you stop the work out, more calories are still being burned.
2. Drink 3 litres of water daily. The calorie burning process of metabolism needs water to work effectively. Additionally, your body has to raise your metabolism to burn extra calories to warm up the cold water. Drinking water has been shown by several studies to increase fat burning metabolism.
3. Eat more fibre and protein; this increases your metabolism because the body burns the most calories when it digests food high in fibre and protein. So eat your carrots, cabbage, green leafy vegetables, and beans and so on.
4. Work out when its the best time for maximum effect and that is in the morning when you wake up. Working out in the morning revs up your metabolism and gives it that way all though the day.
5. Do not skip breakfast, eating breakfast also gets your metabolism started and avoiding breakfast slows down your metabolism which is bad for weight loss.
