Infusions to speed up your metabolism

Maintaining the right balance of muscle and body fat is key to both our well-being and our appearance. We know that there are people who have metabolisms that allow them to burn fat almost effortlessly so that they can maintain their weight and waistline for most of their lives. Sometimes due to heredity we are unable to lose weight despite strict diets where we almost starve ourselves, often at the expense of our health.

But what can we do?

Ideally, you should have a balanced diet complete with all the essential vitamins and minerals. You need to keep eating protein to keep the muscles strong so they don’t go slack, which often happens during weight loss. These infusions, along with a balanced diet, will certainly succeed in speeding up your metabolism and helping you achieve or maintain your ideal weight.

1. Apple Peel and Cinnamon

Apple peels are known for their slimming properties, but why? Basically, for two reasons: ursolic acid and active collagen. The ursolic acid in apple peel prevents joint wear, regulates cholesterol and keeps our bones strong and healthy. The active collagen takes care of our skin and hair.  It’s a miracle of nature, praised by anyone who manages to burn fat while building muscle at the same time.

How can I make an infusion of apple peels and cinnamon?

More tips to increase the speed of your metabolism

1. Eat a nutritious breakfast

When you provide your body with energy in the morning, you immediately put it to work absorbing nutrients and burning fat to start your day. How about a little oatmeal? Or what about whole wheat toast with spinach and feta cheese? These foods are ideal to start your metabolism right away.

2. Foods rich in omega 3

Foods like tuna and salmon contain healthy fats that speed up metabolism while reducing inflammation and balancing and maintaining the hormones responsible for fat storage.

3. Never skip meals

Do you skip meals? That’s a big mistake. Ideally, you should eat six small meals throughout the day and breakfast is one of the most important. Eating regularly tells our body that food is available regularly.

That’s why it’s important to eat six healthy meals a day  and make sure they contain fruit, fiber and protein. Do not forget to eat a balanced diet, but also live an active lifestyle and drink these infusions that will undoubtedly help you achieve your ideal weight.
