The human body is doing various amazing things daily. One of them is metabolism in the body. Metabolism plays a major role in the structure of our body and the activity of daily work. Today those who have gained weight due to obesity(belly) do not know how to increase metabolism and thereby reduce body weight. So in this post, I will also explain to you what is metabolism? and how to increase metabolism in your body?
What is metabolism?
When it comes to fitness, the word metabolism cannot be ignored. metabolism is based on the digestion of the food you eat. That is, depending on how many calories are burned after digestion of the food you eat, it is said that high calorie burns is high metabolism and low calorie burns is low metabolism.
- RMR — Resting Metabolic Rate
- TEF — Thermic Effect of Food
- TEA — Thermic Effect of Activity
High Metabolism Rate:
Usually the food you eat takes 4 to 6 hours to digest. In this case, if the food is eaten which digest too fast with the calories burned, it is high metabolism. This means you eat a lot, but your body muscles do not grow because calories will be burned faster.
Slow Metabolism Rate:
Slow Metabolism is the process by which calories are burned more slowly during digestion. When burned in this way, all the calories except the calories required by the body for energy are converted into fat and stay in the body. This will keep you gaining weight. Weight gain caused by fat can lead to low metabolism. So boosting metabolism is very important if you want to lose weight.
How to Increase Metabolism?
- Although there are many ways to boost metabolism, one of the best ways is exercise. This is because calories are the main requirement for your body to grow both muscle and fat. Therefore, the calories needed for fat formation increase metabolism, when used for muscle growth. This is how, for example, 1 kg of fat in your body needs 10 calories to form, but 1 kg of muscle needs 100 calories to form. This is why calories in your body burn faster when you exercise with an emphasis on muscle growth. This will help you lose weight.
- Another way to speed up metabolism is to take protein depending on your maintenance calories in the diet you are eating. This is because the food you eat requires more calories for protein digestion. So when you should take the protein you need to lose weight and metabolism is boosted. Continue Reading……
