Speed up your metabolism
Saying that the basal metabolic rate is the amount of energy a person spends during the day without doing any physical activity, Dietitian Şeyda Sular said, “The higher the person's metabolic rate, the faster the weight loss rate increases. "Basal metabolic rate depends on many factors such as the person's age, gender, genetic structure, physical activity status, amount of carbohydrate consumption, disease status and water consumption," he said.Dietitian Şeyda Sular said the following about which foods to use to speed up metabolism:
“Red Hot Pepper:Foods containing capsaicin, which gives red pepper its burning properties, are among the foods that accelerate metabolism. After eating hot pepper, it accelerates the metabolic rate by up to 2 times for a long time. Do not rely on capsules sold outside, you can speed up your metabolism naturally by adding them to your meals regularly.
Green tea:Many studies have shown that green tea, which is a good source of antioxidants, accelerates metabolism thanks to the caffeine it contains. Likewise, it is possible to speed up our metabolism by consuming coffee. It is known that drinking coffee, especially before exercise, increases the energy burned during exercise. In addition to accelerating metabolism, the amount of caffeine consumption should not be kept above 400 ml. It should not be forgotten that if it is kept, it increases the risk of palpitations, blood pressure problems, insomnia and osteoporosis in women. As with everything, less decision, more harm.
Flaxseed:As a result of research, flaxseed, which is a good source of omega-3, contributes to blood pressure, cholesterol and cardiovascular health, as well as accelerating metabolism by regulating bowel movements. At the same time, flaxseed is the only herbal source containing B12.
Fiber Foods:Fiber, which is the indigestible part of food, helps speed up your metabolism by increasing the energy spent by the body. At the same time, fibrous foods regulate your bowel movements and keep you full for a long time. Fiber foods with a low glycemic index for diabetic patients keep blood sugar balanced. To give examples of fiber-rich foods; oats, whole wheat cereal and bread group, orange, grapefruit. We can give many examples such as pumpkin seeds, almonds, peanuts, prunes-apricots, grapefruit, pineapple and green leafy vegetables.
Protein:Foods containing protein are digested later than those containing carbohydrates. Accordingly, our digestive system spends more energy to digest protein after consumption. We can increase the energy we spend daily by including a protein source in each of our daily meals. We can choose our protein source as fish, chicken, turkey, eggs and milk/yoghurt rather than red meat.
Pineapple:Thanks to the enzyme called bromelain contained in pineapple, which is responsible for the digestion of proteins, the digestion of proteins is accelerated and the breakdown in the body increases, and accordingly, it has a metabolism-accelerating effect. At the same time, pineapple is perfect against edema with its diuretic effect.
Cinnamon:Cinnamon, with its effect on regulating blood sugar, helps eliminate sudden blood sugar irregularities and delays the time you feel hungry. In addition, it provides a thermic effect by increasing body temperature during digestion and helps accelerate metabolism. You can sweeten your meals with cinnamon and also flavor your water with cinnamon in your daily water consumption.
Asparagus:Asparagus helps to accelerate metabolism with its fibrous structure, is intestinal friendly, is also a good diuretic and helps relieve edema, and is indispensable in diets with its low calories.” UAV
