TIP OF THE DAY: Don’t use your metabolism as an excuse! By now, I’m sure you’ve heard the term “metabolism” several hundred times, but it is important to understand what it is & how to keep it high. Your metabolic rate is the speed at which your body turns calories into energy. This metabolic rate can vary based on factors including age, gender, body fat percentage, amount of lean muscle mass, and overall health. So, how do you keep that metabolic rate high and burning calories? Small meals scattered evenly throughout the day can keep your metabolism constant. Additionally, muscle acts as a metabolic furnace, and requires more calories to sustain as compared to fat; thus, simply building muscle on your frame will be a calorie burner in itself. YOU are in control of the factors influencing your metabolism.
GLUTEN: I want to thank all of you who so kindly shared your advice/stories about gluten sensitivity/intolerance/etc. I appreciate it so much as it is a very scary & painful feeling – I’m going to be seeing my doctor to get properly diagnosed & go from there. I am so grateful for the detailed, informative comments <3
