Transform your body by giving it a calorie-burning boost and send your metabolism into overdrive.

Rev Up Your Metabolism

After what seems like forever, the weather is finally warming up, and we’ll soon be saluting the arrival of summer, our favourite time of year. The warmer weather calls for a diet rethink. If your goal is to slim down, cranking up your metabolism is the way to go. It controls how efficiently you burn calories from the foods you eat. The faster this complex system works, the easier it is to lose weight – and the slower it is, the harder it is to beat the bulge.

The good news is that giving your metabolism a kickstart isn’t too hard. In fact, it isn’t even a big commitment. All you have to do is eat your meals at the right times, in the right quantities, and pack in some secret foods with extra fat-burning powers. This will help pummel away the kilos, lift your energy levels, and improve your concentration and complexion.

KICKSTART IT NOW 

Want to get your body going with minimal effort? There are a few quick ways to accelerate your metabolism.

1. Eat breakfast within a one-hour time frame of waking up This will help your metabolic rate stay high. But missing the first meal of the day will prompt your body to conserve energy, slowing down its ability to burn fat.
