Nobody likes dieting.
But is there really any other choice for those who want to lose weight?
There's a lot you can do to increase the amount of calories you burn, even when you're sitting around doing nothing.
The key is understanding your metabolic rate.
The metabolic rate is a rough estimate of how much energy — calories — the body uses each day. Your total metabolic rate is determined by three factors:
- The basal metabolic rate (BMR), which is the minimum amount of energy required to keep your heart pumping, and brain and organs functioning while you are at rest
- The energy you burn during physical activity
- The energy you burn during the digestion of food
By adjusting each of these factors, you can boost your metabolism without making radical alterations to your diet.
"Even small changes, done consistently, add up to a good deal of calories,"
Add a little bit more to whatever activities you do in your daily life. Then increase it as much as you can.
Consuming high fiber fruits will increase the metabolism, due to the increase in digestion.
White grape juice fast. Drink white grape juice (no sugar & preservatives added), for one day, all day and nothing else except water, repeat every other month. This will help to detoxification of the whole body, and increases your metabolism.
