Let's go! Enough frustration and effort that doesn't produce the expected results. It's time to use science to optimize your body 24 hours a day!

What are the 7 tips to increase your metabolism even when it's stopped? Tip number 7 Sleep in a much cooler room. Did you know that the temperature of your sleeping environment has a direct impact on your metabolism?

When you sleep in a cooler room, your body needs to actively work to keep its temperature stable, your body warm. This stimulates a process called thermogenesis. .

. Studies, such as the experiment conducted at the NIH and published in the journal Diabetes, followed young men who slept for a month in a room air-conditioned at 19°C. The result: after 4 weeks, they had a 42% increase in the volume of brown fat and 10% more metabolic activity in this fat!

But what is brown fat? Unlike white fat, which stores energy, brown fat is a type of adipose tissue that burns calories to generate heat. In other words, it turns your body into a calorie-burning machine even when you're resting.

And this effect isn't limited to the night: keeping the environment cooler during the day also stimulates this burning, increasing your basal metabolism continuously. And as a bonus, sleeping in a cool environment is proven to be one of the best strategies for improving the quality of your sleep. So, adjust your air conditioning to 19°C, or, if you don't have air conditioning, use fewer blankets and clothes.

Let’s move on to the next tip, which also has to do with brown fat: Tip number 6 Take cold showers You must be thinking – Oh, I hate cold showers… especially with winter coming… Who likes them, right? The truth is that no one starts out loving them, but the benefits are worth the effort. As I said, exposure to low temperatures activates brown fat.

Unlike white fat, which is large, inflamed and accumulates… Brown fat cells are smaller, full of mitochondria and burn energy to generate heat. Why do you think top athletes, like Cristiano Ronaldo, use ice pools? Is it because they are masochists?

No… to speed up recovery, maintain high performance and activate metabolism. If he does it, you can already see that there is a reason, right? And for us mere mortals, a cold shower or a cooler environment can already bring these benefits, helping to burn extra calories and boost metabolism.

” Tip #5 - Optimize your thyroid health How? By ensuring adequate intake of essential micronutrients. Thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) are the primary regulators of your basal metabolism.

They dictate the rate at which your cells burn energy. Science shows: In order to function properly, your thyroid needs specific micronutrients: Iodine: This is the raw material. Without it, there is no hormone.

No, you don't need to take Lugol's, nor should you. Iodized salt already does its part. It already meets your needs.

But it's not just iodine. Selenium: Essential for converting inactive T4 into active T3. Deficiency impairs this conversion.

Where is selenium found? Brazil nuts - 2 Brazil nuts a day is good enough. And Zinc: It is also necessary for hormone synthesis and for T3 receptors.

Studies show that zinc deficiency CAN reduce T3 and basal metabolism, and supplementation can reverse this. A recent 2023 study showed that supplementing Zinc (25mg) + Selenium (200µg) increased basal burn by + 400 kcal/day in overweight people on a low-calorie diet, compared to placebo! That's a lot, huh!

But look, these tips are for optimization. If you suspect that your thyroid is having a problem, we have a thyroid playlist, I'll leave it in the final cards, see a doctor. Tip number 4 - Stay well hydrated throughout the day.

Water is vital for COUNTLESS metabolic reactions. Even mild dehydration (e. g.

: 2% of body weight) CAN slow down your metabolism. Have you heard of the Thermic Effect of Water? Drnking water uses up energy.

And it can use up even more if it's cold. A classic study showed that ingesting 500 mL of water at 22°C increased metabolism by about 30% for almost an hour, totaling about 24 extra kcal. And what’s more… good hydration ensures that metabolic processes occur efficiently.

Water helps transport oxygen and nutrients. A dehydrated body is a less efficient body. Not to mention that drinking water before meals helps with satiety, reducing overall calorie intake.

Proper hydration not only keeps your metabolism running smoothly, but also improves digestion, circulation and even energy throughout the day. A well- hydrated body is more efficient at eliminating toxins, contributing to better overall health. TIP #3: Include strength training (weight training) and high-intensity training (HIIT) in your regular routine.

The benefits of both go BEYOND the calories burned during the workout. We’re talking about the afterburn effect. Research shows that intense exercise raises your metabolism for hours after you finish your workout.

In trained women, circuit strength training increased basal metabolism by ~10% for ~14 hours (totaling ~84 extra kcal in the period). HIIT tends to generate a greater afterburn effect than continuous cardio: a Scientific Reports study, 2024, showed that 20 minutes of HIIT burned 22% more calories in the 30 minutes post-exercise than 50 minutes of continuous cardio. See?

If you don't know what HIIT is, HIIT is High Intensity Interval Training, which alternates short periods of intense exercise (for example, very strong 30 seconds. . .

with rest periods of 2 minutes. . .

or light activity). HIIT not only burns a lot of calories in a short time, but it also keeps your metabolism accelerated for hours after training. This is because the body needs more energy to recover from intense effort, resulting in greater oxygen consumption and, consequently, greater calorie burning.

It's an efficient and practical way to boost your metabolism and improve your fitness. And what about weight training? Strength training increases your basal metabolism by 10% for 14 hours (an extra loss of 84 kcal!

) So, focus on HIIT and weight training - It's hard work that pays off later! Training is an investment in your metabolism for the following hours. Your body spends extra energy to recover, repair muscles and replenish energy stores.

Focus on building and maintaining lean muscle mass. Muscle tissue is metabolically MUCH more active than fat. It burns significantly more calories at rest just to maintain itself.

Science Shows: Every extra pound of muscle increases basal energy expenditure by around 20–25 kcal per day. A recent paper (Reference 2 - Martins et al. , 2024) specifically showed in overweight/obese individuals that +1 kg of muscle mass was associated with +24 kcal/day in RMR!

Long-term studies confirm the impact: 9 months of strength training resulted in a ~5% increase in resting metabolism (from ~1653 to 1726 kcal/day, an increase of ~73 kcal/day) in adults. Muscle also manages blood sugar better. So, build the foundation to burn more at all times, even at rest!

Tip #2 - Maximize your sleep. You've probably heard that sleep helps you burn calories, right? Because it's true.

Quality sleep will speed up your metabolism. Studies show that sleep deprivation increases the production of ghrelin, the hunger hormone, and reduces leptin, which signals satiety, leading to increased calorie intake and, consequently, weight gain. In addition, adequate sleep regulates cortisol levels, reducing stress and promoting a more efficient metabolism.

Therefore, sleeping well is not only a matter of comfort, but of keeping the body in metabolic balance! Now you understand why, on that day after work or after a bad night's sleep, you end up wanting to eat everything in sight, especially sweets and junk food. This happens because lack of sleep messes with the hormones that control hunger and satiety, making you eat more and worse.

Therefore, investing in good sleep habits is essential for those who want to speed up their metabolism naturally! Let's go to the checklist to improve the quality of your sleep and speed up your metabolism: Sleep in a quiet environment: If you live in a busy place, with buses and trucks passing by, consider solutions such as soundproofing – which can now be found online, on AliExpress – or something simpler and cheaper, such as earplugs. 2.

Avoid caffeine after 2 pm: If you usually drink coffee or other caffeinated drinks, try to avoid them after this time to avoid affecting your sleep waves. 3. Have a regular sleep routine: with a fixed time to go to sleep and wake up, even on weekends.

This helps to adjust your biological clock and improve the quality of your sleep. 4. Comfortable temperature in the bedroom: A cool environment, 19oC, is ideal for a deeper and more restful sleep, as we have already seen 5E 5 Darken the room completely: Blackout curtains or an eye mask can help block out external light, creating an ideal environment for quality sleep.

And tip number 1, very important and little explored - Eat slow-digesting protein especially before bed. I'll repeat - Consuming a protein that is absorbed slowly by the body can have a significant impact on your nighttime resting metabolism and muscle recovery. What would it be?

Classically it would be casein (which comes from milk and dairy products). Casein forms a gel in the stomach, releasing amino acids in a sustained manner for SEVERAL hours. This continuous release of amino acids feeds your muscles during sleep, keeping muscle protein synthesis active.

You're adding fuel to the fire. And studies show that consuming protein before bed CAN increase your metabolism the next morning. A study published in Nutrients 2015 observed that consuming 48 g of casein 30 min before bed increased the Resting Metabolic Rate the next morning by ~4% in active women!

This is equivalent to burning approximately +60 extra kcal in the morning alone, compared to not consuming anything. Other studies with protein snacks (even ~150 kcal) before bed have also reported higher morning energy expenditure. Double benefit : your body spends energy to digest this protein slowly and use the amino acids to repair and maintain muscles overnight.

It has a higher thermic effect, which supports higher energy expenditure. Plus, protein before bed also increases satiety! This is AMAZING for avoiding those impulsive late-night snacks that sabotage any effort.

So, boost your burn while you sleep. Eat a cup of Greek yogurt, unsweetened or flavored, or a cottage cheese or Even a low-fat Minas cheese would help… That’s it! The 7 strategies PROVEN by science to increase your metabolism and burn MORE fat while you’re sitting, driving or sleeping.

We’ve seen how to optimize your sleep environment, activate brown fat, ensure your thyroid is functioning perfectly with the right nutrients, stay hydrated, use the power of training, muscle mass and slow-digesting protein to boost your calorie burn even when you’re standing still. All of these tips, together, help you Burn More While Resting! And understand one CRUCIAL thing: None of these strategies are a magic pill in isolation.

They are POWERFUL TOOLS and proven to BOOST your calorie burn during periods of rest. But significant and lasting fat loss happens when you combine these smart tactics with the BASIS of any weight loss process: a balanced diet with a sustainable calorie deficit and a regular exercise routine. Think of these 7 tips as an extra TURBO for your metabolic engine.
