This week’s nutrition tip has to do with increasing your metabolism. We all know that metabolism plays a critical role in whether you are gaining or losing weight. That’s why you always hear about the skinny guy who just has a good metabolism and that’s why they don’t gain any weight. We hope you enjoy today’s tip!

Revving Up Metabolism
by Dr. John Berardi

I recommend more calories than most do. That’s because there’s no such thing as a stagnant metabolic set-point. Instead, metabolism chases intake. So, if you want a bigger metabolism, you need a bigger food intake. And if you’re worried about fat gain with this approach, just use outcome-based decision making and adjust energy (calorie) intake every two weeks based on your results. Not much ‘damage’ can take place in only two weeks. So if you end up boosting your metabolism, you’ll be thanking me eternally. And if it turns out you’re consuming too much, you can just adjust down.
