Easy Ways to Increase Metabolism

One of the easiest ways to increase metabolism to lose weight is to omit wheat products from your diet.

Did you know that for most people, the gluten found in wheat actually slows metabolism down? It can also make you feel very lethargic and sluggish.

When you feel sluggish, you are more likely NOT to move. Lack of movement makes you gain weight! Its a vicious cycle that repeats itself over and over again. The trick is to not allow it to start. Get moving and you'll kick your appetite to the curb!

Easy Ways to Increase Metabolism



  • Wheat gluten is hidden in many legumes, breads, grains, and beans. The more you eat, the more you s-l-o-w down metabolism. Gluten sticks to you like glue. The more you eat, the more you're going to gain weight!

    Gluten lectins inhibit insulin metabolism and that interferes with the body’s efficient use of calories for energy. Instead of keeping you lean with high energy, gluten makes you gain weight and feel tired. Corn and sugar fructose can also be inhibitor of a slow metabolism to a lesser extent in some people.

    There are some legumes and beans, particularly kidney beans and lentils, that can slow down metabolism even more. If you know your blood type and you are Type O, wheat affects you the most and should be off limits if you are trying to win the battle of the bulge!

    You must increase metabolism if you want to lose weight, not slow it down!

    This is especially true for Type O, but also to some extent if your blood type is A. For both blood types, the lectins that gluten contains, deposit in the muscle tissues making them more alkaline and less charged for activity.

    Both types are more active when their muscle tissue is slightly acid, not alkaline. For these blood types, the more acid the muscle tissue, the faster and more efficiently calories are burned off.

    If you want to lose weight and increase metabolism, try giving up bread for a month. It can really make a difference. Wheat gluten is like glue. It sticks to you!

    You will save money by not buying as many wheat products, and and lose weight by not consuming them! Think about how much wheat you eat and products that contain it. Pasta, breads, bagels, prepared dinners, prepackaged foods, fried foods, cereals... The list is endless. Giving up wheat for a while isn't that hard once you get used to it. Opt instead for whole grains! They will serve your body the most!

  • Eat more lean protein, low fat cheese, and fresh or frozen fruits, and vegetables. To get a good start, at least limit your bread intake to two slices a day maximum. You will be surprised at how fast the weight comes off! To increase metabolism even more, eat right for your blood type.

  • The absolute best way to increase metabolism and accelerate weight loss (and inches) is to do a weight loss cleanse. The more fat you have to lose, the more weight you will lose. Women tend to lose more inches and men tend to lose more actual weight.

    No exercise required, although it is recommended. This program is set up for people who are serious about their health and want to get more out of life. I do not recommend it if you aren't committed to being healthier.

    When toxins enter your body, they are surrounded by fat cells. The fat cells attach to the toxins and then are distributed throughout your body. Belly fat is a definite sign of toxicity. The weight loss cleanse gets rid of the toxins, which eliminates visceral fat, the most dangerous kind of fat.

    Quick and Easy Ways to Increase Metabolism

  • Eat small meals regularly. You won't suffer from fatigue as much and you'll be burning calories while you're digesting the foods you've already eaten.

  • Keep a food journal. Keeping a watch over the foods you consume helps you keep track of the foods you eat. Most experts agree! Those people who keep a journal have a much better chance of losing weight than people who don't.

  • Eat more lean protein to lose weight. Your body has to work especially hard to break down proteins, which has the potential to increase metabolism.

  • Drink water. When you drink cold water during the cold winter months, your body has to work harder to raise your body temperature. Conversely, drinking warm water during the summer works the same way. Your body has to work hard to cool down your body, which can increase metabolism too.

    Also, the more water you drink, the more fat cells are flushed from your body. Since your body is made of over 90% water, your body is dependent on the water you do consume! Make it at least 8 full glasses a day, if not more!

  • Eat more fiber. High fiber foods are harder for your body to break down and also better for digestion.

  • Don't take shortcuts. You may drive around for 20 minutes looking for that perfect place to park. Instead, opt to park farther away and walk. Other methods that work to increase metabolism include taking breaks at work to stand up or stretch, using stairs instead of the elevator, and even getting up from the couch and playing games with your kids.

  • Eat a raw foods diet for a week to kick start metabolism!

    If you want to increase metabolism, try giving up wheat for starters. If you plateau, think about doing a cleanse to kick start your weight loss goals.
