HIT YOUR GOALS TO LOSE WEIGHT!

Losing weight: A Question of Balance!

Want to lose weight the healthy way?

SLIMTEAFIT KETO TEAS will help you burn more calories, boost your metabolism and melt stubborn fat fast! When the number of calories absorbed by food is greater than the value of the metabolism and calories lost, then there is a storage of the surplus in the form of fat. To stay slim, or even lose weight or more precisely fat, you have to find the right balance, either by reducing the calories absorbed or by increasing your metabolism, or by doing both at the same time!

Raising your metabolism means increasing your energy expenditure, in other words, burning more calories.

Physical activity as well as a targeted diet help to increase the metabolism

Physical activity naturally increases metabolism: to meet its current needs, the body draws on its reserves to supply muscle cells. It is the process of catabolism. Physical activity, over a longer term, also increases basal metabolism.

Eating does not just bring calories: digestion has a greater or lesser energy cost depending on the foods eaten. We will review some rules to follow to effectively increase your metabolism through food.

Lose Fat While Resting!

Raising your basal metabolism is like burning more calories while resting, without doing anything, for example while sleeping! It is also at rest that our body burns the most fat in proportion to the degraded substrates. A 1% increase in its value would allow you to spend, depending on age, weight and sex, between 10 and 20 kilocalories more per day, or 3600 to 7300 kilocalories or 350 to 700 grams of fat per year!

Tips to increase your metabolism

Concretely, and this is the subject of the following sections, you can increase your metabolism by:

  • A change in eating habits (see next section)
  • The practice of appropriate physical activity
  • An adaptation of the way of life

NB: Note that sport and diet are not always compatible. Always seek medical advice. 

 

The influence of diet on metabolism

I eat, therefore I lose weight!

Eating less to reduce the number of calories absorbed starts from a good principle but is not enough to lose fat because the body adapts the metabolism accordingly, a little as if it were saving itself. You will certainly lose a few pounds the first weeks of the diet but it will become more difficult afterwards. In addition, the lost pounds will be quickly catch up once the deprivations are over, the body storing the excess calories which it had managed to deprive itself until then.

Foods to favor

Some foods are more difficult to break down than others. This is the case with complex carbohydrates (flour, etc.) and proteins. Our body spends more energy digesting this type of food than lipids, for example, which are simple in structure and stored almost as they are. Thus, the energy value alone of a food should be taken with caution since in the end, the number of calories stored also depends on the type of food. To take an example, a steak of 100 kcal will make less fat than a portion of butter of 100 kcal because our body will spend much more to assimilate the meat than to store the lipids provided by the butter.

Here is an indication of the percentage of energy consumed to assimilate the nutrients:

  • Proteins: 18 to 25%
  • Carbohydrates: 4 to 7%
  • Fat: 2 to 4%

According to these figures, our body burns 18 to 25 kilocalories to digest 100 kilocalories of lean meat. This energy is found in part in the form of heat, the remaining 70 to 80 kilocalories are stored or used for the functioning of our body. Only 2-4 kilocalories are spent digesting 100 kilocalories of fat.

 

Eat more often!

This idea seems marginal but it is quite serious, on condition of course not to eat more in quantity! By increasing the frequency of meals, the calories ingested are distributed more evenly, allowing greater thermogenesis. Plan 4 to 5 meals a day at a fixed time by interspersing, between the main meals, 1 to 2 breaks where you will eat preferably lean proteins (sea meat, lean ham, dairy product) or complex carbohydrates (grain cereals whole, fruit). Avoid keeping your stomach empty: this slows down the metabolism enormously.

Don't skip any meals, especially breakfast. The latter is very important because it wakes the body and revives the metabolism slowed down by a night's sleep. Avoid fats and prefer complex carbohydrates, less calorie but promoting thermogenesis. Choose fiber (preferably whole grains) which takes longer to digest and which will allow you to last longer.

 

Respect the balance of carbohydrates, proteins, lipids.

Balance carbohydrates, proteins, lipids

While proteins promote thermogenesis, it should not be overused. Eat a balanced diet by respecting the proportions of nutrients that the body needs to function well, i.e. 30% fat, 55% carbohydrates and 15% protein. As a general rule and apart from bodybuilding sessions requiring more protein, it is recommended not to consume more than 0.8 g of protein per kilo and per day, i.e. 55 grams for a person weighing 70 kilos or even 180 to 280 grams of meat per day (based on 20 to 30% protein in the meat). Avoid fatty meats (pork, sausage, etc.).

 

Hydrate yourself! A lack of water slows down the metabolism.

Stay hydrated by drinking water regularly, throughout the day, especially if you exercise. Water is essential for activities linked to metabolism, particularly lipolysis (breakdown of fats). If you don't drink enough, your metabolism will slow down. In addition, by filling the stomach, water gives a feeling of fullness. It cleans and drains impurities. It is essential for the elimination of toxins and lactic acid produced during efforts and responsible for aches and cramps.

 

Promote Foods That Increase Metabolism

Certain foods are known to increase metabolism, such as methylxanthines, including caffeine (coffee, cola, etc.), green tea extract also known for its anti-oxidant properties and widely used in health programs. diet. Apple cider vinegar, garlic, honey, dried fruits, fish oils are also great. Products that promote metabolism can also be found on the market.
