Metabolism is the process of converting food to energy through bodily movement and heat. Metabolism happens in your muscles and organs and the result of it is commonly called as burning calories. In other words, you can say that metabolism is essentially the speed at which your body's motor is running. The metabolism base is the rate of your metabolism or caloric expenditure that is needed by your body so it can function as your heart beating, breathing, muscle tone, etc.
There are actually a few ways that you can naturally boost your metabolism. You just need to incorporate these practices into your life and eventually, you will be burning more calories 24 hours in a day.
1. Eat Breakfast. Skipping breakfast sends the message to your body that you're starving because you haven't taken in food, thus to protect your body, your metabolism slows down.
2. Avoid Late Eating. You should take in dinner as early as possible. Most people recommend having dinner at least four hours before bedtime.
3. Make 1,200 calories your daily minimum. Never eat less than 1200 calories per day as it is not enough to support your basal metabolism and thus will slow your metabolism.
4. Eat Snacks Frequently. Frequent snacking of complex carbohydrates such as fruits, vegetables, and grains fuel your metabolism. Also, snacking prevents you from becoming too hungry.
5. More Carbs and Less Fat. Eat more carbohydrates such as soy, beans, etc, and less fat.. Carbohydrates boost your metabolism and have fewer calories per weight than fat.
6. Exercise Daily. Do some type of aerobic exercise such as walking, jogging, swimming, stationary cycling, aerobic dancing, etc. daily or most preferably in the morning!
7. Take a brisk 10 to 15 minute walk at lunch or in the evening. This will help you boost your metabolism even more.
