Metabolism
According to the Mayo Clinic, Metabolism is the process by
which your body converts what you eat and drink into energy. During this
complex biochemical process, calories in food and beverages are combined with
oxygen to release the energy your body needs to function. Even when you're at
rest, your body needs energy for all its "hidden" functions, such as
breathing, circulating blood, adjusting hormone levels, and growing and repairing
cells.
Unfortunately, weight gain is most commonly the result of
eating more calories than you burn. To lose weight, then, you need to create an
energy deficit by eating fewer calories, increasing the number of calories you
burn through physical activity, or both.
Yerba Mate
Yerba mate is a central nervous system stimulant containing
caffeine, but it also contains a number of other nutrients, including
antioxidants, amino acids, polyphenols, vitamins and minerals. The chemical
compounds and nutrients in yerba mate tea affect your metabolism to make your
body use carbohydrates more efficiently. This means you'll get more energy from
the food you eat. You'll also burn more of the calories your body has stored in
fat cells as fuel when you drink coffee with yerba mate regularly. Regular
yerba mate consumption also helps keep lactic acid from building up in your
muscles so you can decrease post workout soreness and cut your recovery
time.Yerba mate has stimulant qualities to help you feel full sooner after you
begin eating, and it slows your digestion so that your stomach stays full
longer. Combining yerba mate with a healthy diet and regular exercise can help
boost your metabolism to burn more calories, and it can help you eat less by
curbing your appetite slightly.
Controlling portion size may be the single most effective
thing you can do to promote lasting weight loss, a new study shows. Researchers
found overweight people who spent the most efforts in controlling the portion
size of what they ate were more likely to lose weight and keep it off. Although
increasing planned exercise also help people shed pounds, researchers found
portion control efforts seem to offer the biggest payoff.
Garcinia Cambogia
Garcinia Cambogia is found naturally in India and parts of
Asia, and also on the Pacific coast of South and Central America all the way
from Peru up to Mexico, and likes a humid forested environment. Also known as
Brindall berries, garcinia is believed to act as an appetite suppressant and
allows you to lose weight by diminishing your desire for food. Not only does
Carcinia Cambogia suppress your appetite, but it also limits the body's ability
to turn carbohydrates into fat. This factor, combined with increased calorie
burning and a suppressed appetite, prohibit the body from converting excess
carbohydrates into stored body fat. In fact, instead of increasing your body
fat, you'll increase your energy.
