The following 6 foods could act similar to the way a thermogenic or a cardio session in how they affect the body. These foods can ramp up your metabolism, and in essence, can assist you in burning fat whilst also maintaining a healthy, longer lasting life. And who wouldn't want that?
People always blame their genetics as a reason they have a slow metabolism. We also always hear that other people have an easier time taking off weight than they do even if they work harder at it. T hey stay stagnant because of their metabolism. If you have the right foods, the right portions during the right time of day, you can help your own weight loss and start to gain muscle!
1. Blueberries: They are antioxidants. Antioxidants seem to be the new buzzword of the decade. We know everyone needs more antioxidants, but most people don't understand why. We buy the foods with antioxidants but don't truly understand what they do.
Oxidation is a chemical process within your body whereby electrons are taken off a substance via a chemical reaction. When your body undergoes oxidative stress, such as when you're sick, have a disease or after a workout, the product from this oxidation is known as a 'free radical'. Good thing we have antioxidants like blueberries.
Free radicals will build up in your body if you don't remove them and they begin to damage cells that you need. This will lead to inhibited muscle growth, disease and sometimes fat loss. Blueberries can stop this oxidation process and build up free radicals.
2. Almonds: These are known as a miracle food. They can provide you with the most healthy calories and nutrition from just one small serving size. A handful of almonds are an amazing source of vitamin - E, and a great source of fiber. Fiber will keep you feeling full longer. Almonds also offer you monounsaturated fat that will keep your heart healthy.
3. Whey Protein: Whey protein (the highest quality and best form of protein) is incredible stuff. It provides the body with the necessary building blocks to produce amino acids that are used for building muscle tissue. Whey protein also plays a role as an antioxidant and helps support a healthy immune system. Most importantly, consistent whey protein intake coupled with exercise will result in consistent muscle building and potential fat loss.
4. Salmon: Although it's higher in calories than most whitefish, salmon is low in saturated fat, yet high in protein, and a unique type of health-promoting fat, the omega-3 essential fatty acid. The omega-3 fats found in salmon have a broad array of beneficial cardiovascular effects. Omega-3s help prevent erratic heart rhythms, make blood less likely to clot inside arteries, improve the ratio of good cholesterol to bad cholesterol, and can help prevent the clogging of arteries.
5. Spinach: Leafy green vegetables like spinach with its delicate texture and jade green color provide more nutrients than any other food. By eating spinach, you'll be protecting yourself against osteoporosis, heart disease, colon cancer, arthritis, and other diseases at the same time. And if the physical benefits aren't enough, you also get mental improvements.
6. Water: Water makes up nearly 2/3rds of our body's weight. Did you know that 83% percent of your blood is made up of water? Muscles consist of 75% water, bones are 22% water, and the brain is 74% water. Knowing how big of a percentage of your body is made up of water can help you to understand how important it is to stay hydrated. The human body cannot function without it. Without water we are depriving our bodies with the most essential nutrient.
Believe me; if you include any (preferably all) of these foods in your daily eating plan, your body will thank you with extra energy and longevity. There aren't many foods out there that can help keep you fit and healthy, but these 6 are a great start.
