Want to avoid weight gain? Boost your metabolism to burn more calories

Does metabolism matter in weight loss? It is a widely debatable topic as slow metabolism is sometime blamed for excess weight gain. Metabolism is the process by which your body converts what you eat and drink into energy. It is a complex biochemical process, wherein calories in food and beverages are combined with oxygen to release the energy that your body needs to function. And health experts say more than your metabolism, it is how much you eat and drink along with how much physical activity you do that ultimately determine your weight.But in rare cases, such as when you have a medical problem that slows metabolism, you may get excessive weight gain. Some people inherit genes that promote a faster metabolism. When you have high metabolism, you'll may require more calories to maintain your weight. This is a reason why some people can eat more than others without gaining weight. However, a person with a low (or slow) metabolism will burn fewer calories and so s/he should eat less to avoid becoming overweight.Given the benefits, you may want to boost your metabolism. Here are five tricks to improve your metabolism every morning.

Chocolate Chips

Eat Two Eggs

A morning meal that is high in protein will keep you feeling full, well until lunch time. While eggs for breakfast will load you up on nutrients and curb your cravings, stick to eating just two; over-indulging could increase your cholesterol, especially if you lead a sedentary lifestyle.

Lemon Water

One lemon in 6 ounces of warm water is the perfect morning elixir. It reduces food cravings, increases body heat, breaks fat down and helps the digestion and detoxification processes in our system.

Light Therapy

Basking in the morning glory of the sun can lower your BMI. It is most effective before 8 am, and 20 minutes of sunshine is all you need to synchronize your internal clock, get on the ideal sleeping schedule and regulate your energy balance.

Stretch 

Flexing and relaxing your muscles stimulates body heat, accelerates blood circulation and takes your body from slumber mode to cruise control for the rest of the day. Energize your body in the morning with these stretches.

SIMPLE REMEDIES FOR MIGRAINES

Migraines affect almost one in 10 people. Migraines are also in the top 20 list of reasons why people call in sick for work.
Lemon Salt Water will benefit you if you suffer from:

  • Head throbbing
  • Nausea
  • Vomiting
  • Numbness
  • Tingling
  • Dizziness
  • Light, noise, and smell sensitivity
  • Pain that lasts from 2 to 72 hours

All you’ll need to make this magical remedy is a glass of water, lemon juice and two teaspoons of salt. Just mix these ingredients together and drink. The mixture will begin to work within a few minutes.
Try and use good quality salt in your mixture. Pink Himalayan sea salt, for instance, contains 80 different trace minerals including magnesium. Drinking salt in this mixture will allow you to ingest it quickly, and is proven to raise levels of serotonin in the body, thereby quelling pain and inflammation.

Cause of Migraine
 If you’re one of the unlucky 10% of people that suffer from migraines, you’re probably wondering what causes them. Migraines develop due to a variety of things, from stress, to alcohol consumption, to vitamin and mineral deficiencies. With that being said, the most common reasons for the development of migraines are either dehydration or electrolyte imbalance.


The Big D
Did you know that you can still become dehydrated even if you drink plenty of water? This can occur when electrolyte levels in your body are low. Your body works to remove the excess water in order to bring it in balance with your electrolytes. This balance is called homeostasis.
In addition, medical practitioners theorize that migraines themselves actually cause dehydration, which can lead to the initiation of a vicious cycle, with dehydration causing migraines, and vice versa. This means that the migraines you’re experiencing could last for days as your body struggles to achieve homeostasis.

The Big E
Electrolytes are minerals in your body that have a positive electrical charge. They are responsible for some very important bodily processes, such as nerve function, cardiovascular system regulation, and muscle function regulation.
Another important mineral in addition to electrolytes is magnesium, which is a natural anti-inflammatory. It is thought that migraines are an inflammatory response, therefore it’s a good idea to use high-quality salt in the mixture outlined above to reduce the symptoms of a migraine, or stop one from developing at all.
