8 ways to maximize your metabolism :
1. Eat 6-8 small meals a day with an emphasis on fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins.
2. Eat healthy fats, and yes there is such a thing as healthy fats. They include nuts, olive oil, flax oil, and fish. Eliminate processed carbohydrates and replace them with almonds.
3. Eat foods that will help control your blood sugar level, energy level, and insulin level, foods high in protein, healthy fats, fiber, and complex carbohydrates.
4. Don’t drink alcohol. Alcohol adds hundreds of calories to your diet and prevents fat burning. This is important for men who are looking to get lean since alcohol reduces testosterone.
5. Drink both water and green tea. Water keeps you both hydrated and gives you a full feeling. Water and green tea may not increase your metabolism, but they may help to prevent a
decrease in it.
6. Breakfast is still the most important meal of the day. A lean protein and fiber is a must for your morning meal.
7. We all know sleep is important but how many of us get a consistent amount each night. If it is possible try and get yourself on a regular and consistent sleep schedule.
8. Lastly, don’t starve yourself. When you starve yourself you lose water weight and muscle, not fat, which is not what you want.
