Metabolism and Weight Loss: How to Boost Metabolism with a Diet Program

Metabolism and weight loss are forever linked as each one affects the other. If a diet program drops your caloric intake too much, the metabolism goes on autopilot to conserve energy - meaning the body’s fat-burning mode drops down to a snail’s pace. Pretty much a lose-don’t-lose situation.

Fasting has gained popularity, and there’s a lot of talk about intermittent fasting for weight loss. If done right, it can be a way to avoid the famine reaction that stalls the metabolism. Though going without food for extended periods may seem harsh, if prepared, you can be quite comfortable.

Melt Away Pounds by Fasting 

A liquid fast is a diet that replaces solid foods for a time, allowing for three delicious mealtime shakes every day along with veggie broth or juice, plenty of water, and coffee or tea.

And, by including Almased shakes and smoothie recipes in your diet, you will boost metabolism and eliminate hunger pangs, while still achieving rapid weight loss.

Cyclical fasting helps to maintain the bodies ability to burn fat. Almased can accompany the intermittent approach merely by drinking your shakes within an 8 to 12-hour time period. Follow up the final 12 to 16 hours of your day by consuming nothing else except water. Not too bad when you consider you’ll be sleeping through most of that time.

How to Boost Metabolism Fast

Keep in mind that while metabolism is the total of the body’s chemical reactions that keep everything functioning, the metabolic rate reflects how many calories you burn. The higher the metabolic rate, the more energy you have, the better you feel, and the easier it is to keep weight off.

Studies from the University of Edmonton, Canada, show that Almased even increases the basal metabolic rate on those with an average healthy weight if it is taken regularly from the first day on.

The basal metabolic rate is the number of calories that you burn daily to stay alive. When your BMR increases, so do the number of daily calories consumed. Many variables affect your BMR, including genetics, gender, age, fitness level, and of course what you eat. When you go on diets that starve the body, your BMR slows by as much as 30%. Ever wonder why losing that last 10 to 20 pounds seems so tough?.  

If you want to learn how to boost your metabolism rate while rapidly losing weight, we recommend the Almased 4-Phase Figure plan as the best diet for success and overall good health. The Almased Weight Loss Phenomenon provides a sizable 27 grams of protein per serving, is low-glycemic, gluten-free, and diabetic friendly.

The exclusive fermentation method is achieved from living enzymes in the enzyme-rich raw honey and a host of bioactive peptides, such as lunasin, which stimulates fat-burning metabolism.

The Almased Figure Plan guides you through four stages of weight loss. If starting with the fast in phase 1, you'll drink three Almased shakes daily for 3 – 14 days (as desired). Advancing through the stages, you’ll slowly add healthy solid foods back into your meal plan to reset your diet. Finally, the Figure Plan helps you maintain your body with a reformative approach to meals that sustains your new outlook. For life.

There are several useful tweaks may help push a sluggish metabolism:

1. Eat more protein

Eating more protein can increase metabolism as it enables you to eat less. A single serving of low-glycemic Almased accomplishes this with 27 g of naturally healthy bioactive peptides.

2. Strength training

Strength training can help burn fat instead of muscle as you lose weight and more muscle results in a higher metabolism. If you’re not into the gym scene, know that activities like heavy gardening, lifting anything, climbing hills and stairs and heavy-duty dancing work well. Hoorah for fitness! Just remember that when it comes to weight loss, eating less is more important than exercising more. Drinking Almased is outstanding!

3. Don’t buy into a high-fat diet plan

According to an obesity study from Virginia Tech, too much fat in the diet uproots the metabolism, making it more difficult to burn your calories. And get this – it takes less than a week to undo the gains from your workouts. Even one high-fat meal a week could add up to an 11-pound weight gain in one year. Yikes! (Skip the cheese; drink an Almased)

4. Sleep – because it feels good

Lack of sleep can decrease the number of calories you burn, change the way you process sugar, and disrupt your appetite-regulating hormones. The high-protein in the Almased diet demonstrates a significantly higher sleeping metabolic rate and 24-hour energy expenditure compared to the regular diet.

5. Have a cup of Joe

Coffee seems to have a positive effect on energy and fat-burning, and may even support successful weight loss and weight maintenance. Since coffee is already part of the Almased plan, enjoy!

How to Boost Metabolism After 50

According to the Mayo Clinic, you may need to eat even fewer calories as you age because it is natural for muscle in the body to decrease over time. This reduction of muscle mass reduces the basal metabolic rate. Understand the Almased diet, and you’ll master how to boost energy and metabolism at any age. Because Almased optimizes the metabolism, the body will burn fat as fuel, leading to more significant fat loss. Isn’t it wonderful that even a faulty metabolism can be improved?

Love your body and get fit at any age

The science behind Almased is what makes us different. Claims from many of our Almased consumers agree. Amazon reviewer Michele Harvey states:

“I have been using this amazing product for two weeks as a breakfast shake and have lost 10 pounds! It gives me so much energy and a decrease in appetite. I'm going to have a shake for lunch starting today but with no banana for quicker weight loss. Almased gives me the feeling and energy "zing" that I had in my 20's and 30's!! I'm 55 years old. I will always have a supply of this even after I'm at my weight loss goal.”

Seriously – do you ever feel that you have too much energy?
