Free and Easy to use tips to boost Metabolism and lose weight quickly (2021)

Boost Metabolism and lose weight quickly

 Your total metabolic rate is not fixed. In fact, there is a certain part of it that is flexible and when given the proper foods, hydration, exercise and supplements can rev up and help you slim down naturally

Image result for funny weight loss

If you think back to your own personal health history, I am confident you can pinpoint a time in your life when the weight just started to “creep” up on you.  Whether it was an emotional or stressful trigger that started the number on the scale to climb or the hectic pace of life which caused health to take a back burner position – one day you wake up and realize just do not feel like the vibrant, fit person you were meant to be. The good news is, the body has an amazing forgiving and restorative nature – given the proper foods, nutrients and conditions, it responds positively in a very short time. The question that researchers and doctors have been investigating for years is whether metabolism can be altered through various lifestyle and dietary changes. If you have difficulty losing weight, it is thought that you are one of the unlucky ones that have a “slow” metabolism dooming you to a future of continued weight gain and weight loss struggles. If you have a “fast” metabolism, you may be among one of those lucky few who can eat anything and everything they wish never gaining a pound.

With great strength, science demonstrates that metabolism can indeed be increased with a variety of natural steps. The key is to strike a fine balance between caloric intake, proper food choices and exercise.

1 Protein , protein and Protein


The hormone glucagon is released in response to dietary protein, such as egg whites, low-fat cheese, lean meats, chicken, fish and protein powder. Glucagon signals fat cells to release fat into the blood, thereby promoting its use. In other words, more fat is burned and more weight is lost when you eat more protein

2. Breakfast is best to break fast


 Picture your metabolic rate shaped as an ice cream cone. In other words, starting at the top – it is at its highest in the morning and starts to decline on a gradual level as the day progresses. Unfortunately, most of us have a backwards approach to eating when it comes to weight loss and meals. We skip breakfast for a variety of reasons such as lack of hunger, a busy schedule or to save on calories.  While this may seem to make sense from a pure “calories in, calories out” theory, research has demonstrated time and time again that this approach will result in weight gain. Whether it is a protein shake, a yogurt and granola parfait or slow-cooking oatmeal – you need something to start your day off right.

3. Big NO to refined grains


 Products made from refined grains, such as many breads, pastas, cookies and cakes, cause most people to over secrete the hormone insulin. Insulin has the opposite effect of glucagon. Of its many functions, insulin is secreted from the pancreas to facilitate the uptake of glucose from the bloodstream into the cells.

Glucose (a.k.a. blood sugar) is derived from carbohydrates and is the main source of fuel for the body. When too many of the wrong types of carbohydrates are consumed, such as refined white sugar and/or white flour, excess insulin is secreted to deal with the sugar. In short, excess insulin = excess fat.

 

4. Eat LOW glycemic index carbohydrates


 Examples are like - fruits, vegetables, whole grains (breads and pastas) and beans. Do not be scared of eating bread! Research demonstrates very clearly that whole grains are beneficial for weight loss and the prevention of type II diabetes, colon cancer and constipation.

  

5. Go for green! Instead of coffee, opt for some green tea


 

 Green tea has many health benefits, from helping to fight diseases such as cancer and heart disease, to aiding in weight loss. Studies show that catechins, the antioxidants in green tea, help increase fat burning. Research also shows that green tea may lower blood sugars by inhibiting enzymes that allow the absorption of starches, and it may reduce the absorption of fat from the intestine. Typical dosage is three or four cups per day or a 300 to 400 mg capsule of green tea extract daily.

Easy to use Home Remedies for Cough. 


Me and my family always use these home remedies when we have a cough any season.


They are very simple and Easy to use Home Remedies for Cough.



Home remedies and natural medicines made at home from natural ingredients such as fruits, vegetables, and herbs are catching a lot of attention due to its very nature of cure: simple, no side effects, and no chemicals, inexpensive. Winter is very common time for cough and cold problems.



Why we all get cough?




Coughing is the body's way of removing foreign material or mucus from the lungs and upper airway passages.

Or



Coughing is reaction to an irritated airway



Or



Coughing is a reflex action started by stimulation of sensory nerves in the lining of the respiratory passages - the tubes we use to breathe.





When a person coughs, there is a short intake of breath and the larynx (the voice box) closes momentarily. The abdominal and chest muscles used for breathing contract, which in turn increases the pressure needed to drive air out the lungs when the larynx re-opens.



Coughs have distinctive traits you can learn to recognize. A cough is only a symptom, not a disease, and often the importance of your cough can be determined only when other symptoms are evaluated.



What are causes of Cough?




Coughing usually means there is something in the respiratory passages that should not be there. This can be caused by breathing in dust particles in the air or when a piece of food goes down the wrong way.



It could also be a sign that an infection in the lungs is making the respiratory passages produce phlegm.



Coughing can be provoked by:




The common cold




This is a frequent cause of acute cough that usually settles in less than three weeks.





Bacterial or viral infections




These infections in the lungs, e.g. acute bronchitis, pneumonia, whooping cough, croup in children



Sucking material



When sucking material into the breathing tubes from your mouth.

Severe illnesses



This can be due to pneumonia, acute heart failure or pulmonary embolism (a clot in the blood vessels of the lung).



Smoking




This often causes chronic cough (smoker's lung).





Asthma




This can happened in children who may only cough and show no wheezing



Stomach acid




This can back up the gullet and spilling over into the windpipe (gastro-oesophageal reflux).



Medicines




Some of them used in heart disease called ACE inhibitors.



Psychological illness



Rarely coughing can be provoked by psychological illness




Nerve damage




This can happen to damage to the nerves that supply the vocal chords (known as vocal chordpalsy) and chronic cough can occur.



Here are try and tested simple home remedies for cough. Please try and let me know if they work.

Take one tea spoon of pure honey and to it add a pinch of grounded white pepper. Regular usage of this 2-3 times a day for about 4-5 days will cure your cough.
