Well good news! You are not condemned to your metabolism or the discomfort that this entails, as being overweight can be. We tell you what you can do to completely revolutionize it, you will notice the changes from the first weeks
Hydrate well
The body depends on water for its proper functioning. Cells and organs need this fluid to perform their vital functions such as maintaining body temperature, eliminating waste, and lubricating joints.
Drinking water on an empty stomach has great benefits such as eliminating toxins, activating the metabolism and increasing the feeling of satiety which lasts throughout the day, preventing us from overeating.
It is recommended to ingest:
- Simple water;
- with apple cider vinegar and sea salt;
- with lemon juice and sea salt
- Green Tea
If you start adding lemon juice and vinegar when hydrating, you will begin to prepare your stomach to better digest food and regulate gastric acidity.
Eat a proper breakfast
A breakfast rich in protein promotes a better metabolism.
This occurs because an instantaneous rise in glucose is avoided, which after two hours would suddenly decrease, awakening in us cravings, especially for sweet foods.
For this reason, we recommend that you consume a breakfast rich in animal protein of 30 to 40 g at this time of day.
We give you some options:
- Protein smoothie with seeds (you can add berries if you are not diabetic)
- Eggs with yolk
- Meat, chicken or fish
You can add fiber, these should preferably be vegetables and those that do not have starch, these are: broccoli, spinach, chayote, eggplant, cabbage, kale, celery, mushrooms, garlic, onion and add salt.
Salt is important to avoid sweet cravings and so that the rest of the day you feel less hungry, thirsty and have more energy.
An example of a breakfast of this type would be an omelet with garlic, onion with spinach or mushrooms, or salmon with sliced tomato and lettuce with apple cider vinegar. Delicious and with a high nutritional level!
Do not expose yourself to artificial lights
Did you know that it is until the third stage of sleep, the deepest, in which we manage to restore ourselves?
It is in this phase when our brain waves transform into slow, high-amplitude restorative waves.
Virtually most of our bodily functions slow down and our organs begin to repair themselves.
When we do not reach this phase, we really do not have a true rest and nowadays with technology it is even more difficult to achieve it.
The “junk light” released by electronic devices prevents you from releasing melatonin and does not allow you to reach this phase, preventing our body from repairing itself.
It is advisable that hours before bed you avoid electronic devices and do not sleep with the television on.
By following these three simple tips, you will be able to see internal and external changes; Your hydration status will be adjusted, as will your neurochemistry and gut and stomach hormones such as leptin and ghrelin.
The best thing is that the benefits increase the longer you maintain these good habits!
