How To Fool Your Metabolism Into Burning Fat

I am always on the lookout for everyday things that the average person would find, even in their food pantry, that they are not even aware could help them to elevate their health, and to burn more fat. Recently I asked my good friend Jon Benson which common item stands out as a great supplement for accelerated fat loss.

Foods That Speed Metabolism Study


In a study conducted in the Japanese Study of Nutrition and Food Sciences researchers used 175 overweight Japanese men and women. They found that those who consumed a drink containing apple cider vinegar daily for 12 weeks had a significantly lower body weight, lower BMI or visceral fat (the fat underneath the skin that makes the proverbial beer belly) and lower waist circumference than the control group that did not consume any vinegar. Weird, huh?

For Jon the most significant result was that apple cider vinegar specifically targets visceral fat which is a very dangerous fat that encompasses our internal organs. This is a hard fat, a dense fat and it doesn't just look bad, it is dangerous, very, very dangerous. It is associated with diabetes, hypertension heart disease and high cholesterol. Jon is adamant that you have to get rid of this visceral fat in order to improve your health.

Can Drinking Water Increase Metabolism? How About Cider?


It is believed that the acid in apple cider vinegar is what makes it work so well as a fat-burner. The theory is that acidity can switch on genes that pump out proteins to break down fat. Other studies have shown a reduction in insulin production when apple cider vinegar is taken before a high carbohydrate meal and that the appetite is reduced helping to feel more satiated with less calories. More research is being done to isolate the exact way it works. The good news for us is that it does work. It works very well.


How To Fool Your Metabolism into Burning Fat' In A Few Teaspoons A Day!


In the 'Metabolism-Boosting Apple Cider Study' participants were given either one or two tablespoons daily. We have found that two is much more effective. Given the current research showing the advantages of taking apple cider vinegar with every meal I would say taking a teaspoon, or even a tablespoon 3 times a day is reasonable. Try it and see what kind of benefit you get from it. Plus it doesn't taste bad. Believe it or not, apple cider vinegar mixed in water tastes totally fine. It's completely counter intuitive to think that foods increase metabolism but that's why it's important to remember to diet smart- you'll feel better for it and even fool your metabolism into burning fat for you!

The Best Ways to Decrease Blood Sugar and Insulin Levels in the Body Naturally

Sugary junk foods can turn my kids into zombie-like fiends within days; how dangerous is high blood sugar and insulin levels in adults who've been on high-sugar escapades for years and who need to lose weight and lessen their risk of Type 2 diabetes? I asked my good friend Jon Benson, who knows a thing or two about how to lower blood sugar and insulin levels through natural diets. His advice for adults lets us know that even if we're soda pop addicts, there's hope for us to naturally decrease blood sugar and insulin levels before it's too late ' and it's no bad thing that this is one of the best methods for weight loss, too!


A Powerful Fat Burning Secret That Will Lower Insulin Levels To Boot!


People are not only looking to control their blood sugar for health reasons, but for body fat reasons, too. Well look no further for a natural remedy to burn body fat than your own cupboard. Lemon juice is a powerful fat-burning natural supplement. In November of 2008, The Journal of Clinical Biochemistry and Nutrition showcased a study in Japan with mice that were fed a high fat diet. We use mice in experimental studies because mice very closely mimic the metabolism of human beings, in case you're wondering. They were fed a high-fat diet along with lemon juice, and they were using the polyphenols from lemons. You won't believe the results'

In these mice, levels of the serum insulin, glucose and leptin were all significantly improved by lemon polyphenols! Lemon juice is also a well-documented digestive aid. This makes Lemon juice a very valuable fat burning tool because if you don't digest your food what's going to happen to it? It's either going to slide around and get toxic or it's going to get stored.


More Sneaky Tricks to Lower Blood Sugar Levels


Vanadyl sulfate is another great blood sugar level fighter. Vanadyl sulfate was used as a bodybuilding supplement in the 1980's to enhance their beloved pump. This great supplement lowers blood sugar very effectively. Another easy natural supplement that lowers blood sugar is cinnamon. This is widely known and thankfully most coffee shops already have cinnamon as a staple condiment for your coffee fixing preferences. How can you monitor the effects of these great natural supplements? Go get a glucometer at your pharmacy and check your post-prandial blood sugar about an hour after you eat. Low blood sugar is linked not only to weight loss but to heart attack prevention so even if you aren't diabetic, monitoring your blood sugar is highly valuable.

Post Prandial Blood Sugar Levels and How to Burn More Fat


Your post-prandial blood sugar levels should remain under 100, which equals 100 milligrams per deciliter of blood (mg/dl). A diabetic struggles to do this and will work with his or her doctor to bump those levels up to about 118 and not higher. Jon Benson offers a story about testing his post-prandial blood sugar eating two distinctly different breakfasts. Slow-cooked organic oatmeal with skim milk, a handful of walnuts and a bit of blueberries is the first breakfast. This sounds nutritious, but these foods are not ones that humans have evolved to easily digest. A pre-blood sugar level of 90 before the meal skyrocketed to 187 only one hour after the meal; and Jon's by no means a diabetic. With three eggs and green vegetables, post prandial was only 91; one point higher than pre-meal. These are invaluable ways to naturally combat high blood sugar and lower insulin levels to cause weight loss!

Boost Your Fat Burning Potential with These Weight Loss Supplements

You've heard of them, seen them, probably even purchased a few bottles of your own. There are miracle diet pills, weight loss supplements, and metabolism-boosting gadgets sold everywhere you go, in stores, on the television, and online! I've always been skeptical of the prevalence of these weight loss supplements in our generally overweight societies. My friend Jon Benson offers some great advice for how to determine the best weight loss supplements to boost your metabolism.


Choose Your Weight Loss Supplement Based Off The Best Diet Advice...

When people see the taut, tanned beauties who model weight loss supplements (in photoshopped pictures...), they want the same results, now! However the healthy lifestyle can't yo-yo up and down between weight loss success and failure. It's always best to regulate your diet and exercise routine for the long haul, which means that you can't find a miracle drug to melt away your pounds. Intensity is not the right approach to weight loss, but a steady lifestyle of wellness for the duration of your life always is.


The Pill That Killed


Truly, there must absolutely be balance when approaching weight loss. As dangerous as the affects of obesity are, the abuse of weight loss pills are also very dangerous. Many of you will rememeber a seemingly miraculous weight loss drug called the "ECA Stack". This was s concoction of ephehedrine, Caffeine, and Aspirin. This intense blend would burn a ton of fat quickly, but then your body essentially became immune to it. From there, people began adding more and more of the dangerous blend to their diets and they wound up with panic attacks, adrenal fatigue, and even died from abuse of this blend. Most states have now outlawed ephedrine but we've learned a valuable lesson: the best way to lose weight is to balance a good diet with exercise as a way of life, not in short, dramatic, and harmful spurts.


How to Use The Best Weight Loss Supplements


The best weight loss supplements are the ones you can use every day during your normal lifestyle so that you are comfortable with them. Green tea is awesome for weight loss, as is oolong and other herbal teas. Take supplements, pills, or capsules in moderation to avoid abuse.


A Red Hot Weight Loss Trick and The Best Fat Burning Supplement


Red Chili peppers, or specifically CH19, contain an intense fat burner called capsinoids. This element raises thermogenesis in your body to burn more fat. These contain dihydrocapsiates which specifically target brown adipose tissue (BAT) which is a very dangerous fat that encompasses our internal organs. Do we have to down tons of hot peppers to lose fat? Not really...


The Best Fat Burning Supplements with Dihydrocapsiates


Dihydrocapsiates burn fat fast and a couple studies confirm this. A UCLA study claims that people burned more fat post-exercise with the supplement. A sponsored Baton Rouge study claims that the fat melted away twice as fast in people with the highest level of respiratory quotients from dihydrocapsiates. What's most important is that you find the supplement that you can take comfortably over the course of your life and in all things, balance exercise and the best diet you can comfortably endure to acheive your weight loss goals in the long haul.
