Tony, I find the Broccoli raises the Metabolism and helps to lose weight as well ... I lost 85 pounds by just eating green veggies along with alot of Broccoli. I had more energy and I never felt hungry. My Fiance lost 145 pounds by doing the same thing I was doing. Broccoli is just one of the many foods out there to speed up your Metabolism!!\nCuddlez!!

Stop worrying about the actual weight you lose, you want to tone up and shed as much fat as possible.\n\nEat properly, small meals at least 5 times a day... low fat, high protein, low (not no) carbs, whole grains, lots of veggies.\n\nCut out all alchohol.\n\nDrink a lot of water, it, as well as the mini meals will boost your metabolism.\n\nWork out ... and with your cardio and weights.. do pilates, they will sculpt your body faster than just about anything, in combination with cardio.

Rev up your metabolism with a grean tea drink (contains anti-oxidants and thermojetics to burn calories), increase your lean muscle by feeding your body with soy and whey protein, eat small regular portions (every 3 hours), drink plenty of water to flush out the fats and toxins, alternate cardio and resitance training.

I asssume you mean a safe way to raise your metabolic rate, because I know of some ways that you might call natural that are deadly but will raise your metabolic rate in the short term.\n\nThe easiest way is to put on new muscle.  Muscle burns calories even at rest, and the more of it you have, the higher your metabolic rate.  The composition of your diet is also important.  It takes calories to digest food.  Fats and Carbs do not take much energy to digest, but 15-30 % of the calories you get from protein are needed simply to digest the protein.  Only 3-4% of fat calories are needed to digest fat, and 10-15% of carb calories are needed to digest the carbs.\n\nAnother important point is that you should eat small meals, this will keep your metabolism up and your blood sugar stable.  Binge eating and then starving will cause you to put on fat with the binge; then lower your metabolism as you starve (and burn muscle in addtion to fat in the process).\n\nFiber will also reduce the absorption of food in the gut.  Calcium will also help with fat loss.  A study a number of years ago told some particiapnts to eat two cups of yogurt a day.  They could eat whatever else they wanted so long as they ate two cups of yogurt.  The participants lost weight with this method.

Incorporate spices in your diet.  Garlic is great, also vinegar cuts fat, as well as Hot pepper; which invigorates the metabolism. Just remember that if you are trying to lose weight you are not going to see that much of a difference unless you incorporate diet and exercise into your daily routine.

Try eating several small, healthy meals throughout the day and remember that of those meals, breakfast is the most important - it jump starts your metabolism.  The best thing you can do, though, is excercise!

Dont TRY to get in 30 min a day, DO get in 30 min a day.  No matter what you do for a living/daily, you ALWAYS have 30 min somewhere in your day.  Even if it means getting up 30 min early in the morning.  \n\nTo increase your metabolism, first make sure it's working all the time.  Have 8 full oz of water first thing when you wake up.  That will make you hungry, so make sure you have good protein in your breakfast (I have eggs, you can also do nuts).  Make sure you eat every 2-4 hours and make sure it's something small.  An apple, banana, yogurt, etc.  Stick with fresh fruits and veggies for your snacks if you can.  Make certain youre drinking 64 oz of water per day because you feel hungry less often and cut calories easily that way.  I fill two 32 oz water bottles at the beginning of the day to make sure I drink it all.  It's easy to lose track of a glass here and there.  \n\nGood luck!

You do because you raise your metabolism and then you are using more energy thoughout the day. I would reccommed eating a bowl of oatmeal and then going for a run, you may want to include a few sprints to really jack your metabolism. Or if you are good at it(can do it without keeping your feet together) try jumping rope

eating a lot of food before you go to bed will add weight on you.  i know when i used to eat before i went to bed i put some fat on me.  if that doesnt work eat like 7 semi-big meals a day and may even try to lift some weight if you want some weight gain, but be careful because lifting weights will even add you metabolism rate even higher.

Walk or run, Drunk alot of water, take in protein, and for added nutrients to help boost your metabolism while exercising take a multivitamin. Make sure to eat small meals throughout the day. Maybe eat a protein bar a couple times throughout the day. Do not starve yourself. If you do, your body will hold on to the fat to protect itself because its being starved.

Mass? Weight gainer shakes will be a much better choice than simply adding loads of butter etc. to things or eating junk loaded with saturated fats, you want to consider your health as well!\n\nYour metabolism is actually raised when you eat as well and is at its lowest when you are asleep so try to get plenty of rest and also eat just a few large meals per day rather than eating all day.

At best they work for a week.\n\nThe best way to increase your metabolism is this:\nBelow I have included an excerpt from my new book The Gracious Diet. This excerpt will give you a brief summarry on the metabolism.\nLet’s talk about metabolism. What is all this media hype about the metabolism? Why is it worthy of grabbing front page headlines in every fitness magazine? \nThe term metabolism, derived from the Greek language, simply means change or transformation. Our metabolism is what turns foods into energy. The higher the metabolic rate, the higher the caloric output. It is a necessary function that allows our bodies to use food and other resources to maintain the working parts, repair damage, heal injury and rid the body of toxins. In other words, metabolism is a necessary process, without which living organisms would die.\nMetabolism aids in digestive function as well as absorption of nutrients. It is most affected by nutrition, hydration and physical activity. Each of these items is an imperative aspect of optimum metabolic health. When any one of these is lacking, the metabolic rate decreases. Consequently, weight loss and weight maintenance are directly related to healthy metabolism.\nWhen does our metabolism work? Well the truth is it’s always working, even when you are sleeping. A well designed fitness program will elevate the metabolic rate. Below are nine closely guarded steps to increasing your metabolic rate.\n1. Eat protein at every meal, including breakfast.\n2. Eliminate wheat- and flour-based products for the time being. And yes, that definitely includes bread and pasta. \n3. Eat unprocessed foods. Ninety percent of what you eat should be a combination of (in this order of importance) raw vegetables, steamed vegetables, whole grains, lean protein, and a few fruits. \n4. Reduce starch to one portion a day, and don't eat that portion during your evening meal. Best choices of starches are beans, sweet potatoes, and oatmeal. \n5. Reduce or eliminate dairy for the time being, especially cow's milk. Exceptions: reasonable amounts of low sugar, fat free yogurt. \n6. Lose the booze. Despite what the "studies" say, you lose no health benefits by giving up alcohol (including wine). There is nothing essential in alcohol that you can't get in fruits and vegetables without all the bad side effects that go along with it. \n7. Stop using vegetable oils such as sunflower, safflower and corn. The supermarket kind is highly refined, and it oxidizes easily when heated, contributing to arterial plaque. Use olive oil instead, and apply it to food after the food is cooked when possible. \n8. Watch which types of fat you're eating. The amount of fat you eat is probably less important than the kind of fat you eat. The worst are fried foods, margarine and foods that contain hydrogenised or partially hydrogenised oils. The best is omega-3, found in fish and flaxseed oil. \n9. Obsessively drink water: At least 8 ounces for every 20 pounds of bodyweight you're now carrying around, each day. Everyday. No excuses.

To see the best results and to increase your metabolism you should aim for between 1,500 and 1,700 calories per day while eating at least six times a day. Eat a meal replacement bar for breakfast and before lunch eat a fruit of your choice, keep in mind that berries increase the amount of calories your body burns and celery and cucumbers use more calories digesting than they contain. Each lunch, lean more towards healthy then taste, but to get both try a Lean Cuisine, Smart Ones, or Healthy Choice frozen meal selection for lunch and before dinner have another fruit of your choice. Lastly, eat dinner but try and keep it simple; meat, some carbs, and a salad instead of fried foods. But, above all else portion control is the key to any diet. If you manage to stick to it this one works, I've lost ten pounds in the past two weeks.
