The question remains: How often should you eat each day, if you want to maximize your metabolism.
In the olden days, the maxim was: “To lengthen thy life, lessen thy meals.”
But today, you hear and read a lot about making sure you’re always eating, every couple hours, otherwise your body will down, you’ll go into starvation mode – and you’ll end up getting fatter instead of leaner.
Okay, so how’d that work for you over the holidays? Chances are excellent you ate five or six times per day. Chances are excellent that the five or six meals left you feeling bloated, tired, sluggish and downright miserable – if not sick.
Granted, much of the food was of the sugary, greasy, starchy kind. But even so, shouldn’t your metabolism kick in when eating so often?
Alright, so now it’s time to clean up your diet for the New Year. Whatcha gonna do if you want to get positive results least as fast as you added holiday blubber?
If you think the answer is five or six small meals of celery sticks and broccoli, think again.
You’ll be far better off NOT eating for a spell than you will eating five or six “health food” meals a day. Don’t me, then give it a try, if you dare.
Oh, I hear you saying that “scientific research” has proven your metabolism slows when you eat less often. To that I what is metabolism?
Metabolism is a fancy word for “hormones.”
And the dirty little secret you’re not being told abut hormones, especially human growth hormone (which your body naturally), is that your system increases it’s production of these hormones when you stop shoving so much food in your hole.
“To lengthen thy life, lessen thy meals.”
Let’s start with breakfast. One of the fastest ways to blast fat off your body is to stop eating this so-called “most meal of the day.”
Not easy to do, I know. It’s my favorite meal of all times. I love breakfast. But the fact remains, if I want to get ‘n mean fast, I either cut breakfast out completely or I eat a couple pieces of fruit until noon.
Now, depending on how many meals you think you’re supposed to eat per day, if you skip breakfast or only eat fruit, already down a significant number of calories.
So you’ve already lessened your meals – and your body loves you for it. Within a day or two you notice the results.
My friend, the tip I have just given you, in and of itself, can and will dramatically change your health for the So let’s go to metabolic makeover maneuver #2: How do you move?
