BOOST YOUR METABOLISM
Metabolism is the process of burning calories in your body, which happens naturally even when you are sleeping.
Substantial meals all 2-3h keeps your blood sugar level stable,
feeds your body a steady stream of nutrients, and helps control cravings for sweets and fats.
Eating breakfast can increase your resting metabolism by up to 10 percent.
Starting your day with breakfast initiates the metabolic process of digesting and transporting food.
Try to develop your own plan, i.e.:
Example: eggs with veggies or fruit and some whole grain carbs
Break your fast within an hour of waking up, to fire up that metabolism straight away.
Example: curd cheese with fruits and (shredded) nuts
Ideal combination of probiotis, B vitamins, anti-oxidants, healthy fats, fiber and protein.
Example: chicken breast with quinoa and veggies/salad
Quinoa is a gluten free grain and contain more protein than any other grain or rice.
Example: sugar free whole grain muffin with peanut butter and banana slices
60-90min befor workout for adequate digestion and absorption.
Example: any kind of protein smoothies with fruits
Proteins and the vitamins & minerals in fruits contribute to a faster recovery after workout.
Example: salmon and veggies
Salmon are rich in high quality proteins and large amount of omega-3 oils to maintain your bodily function.
Example: mozzarella, buttermilk or yoghurt, and tomatoes
Slow digesting proteins like mozzarella limit the breakdown of muscles during sleep, by providing a steady release of amino acids, and also enhance recovery.
*If you workout, and need the extra energy to train and to recover.
Otherwise, your late snack may be before dinner.
