What food can accelerate metabolism?
onion

Onion not only has sterilization function, but also can reduce human blood fat, prevent arteriosclerosis, activate active components of fibrin, effectively prevent the formation of intravascular thrombosis, and also has a good antihypertensive effect on human body.

corn

Corn is rich in calcium, selenium, lecithin, vitamin E and so on, which has the function of lowering serum cholesterol.

Giant algae

Kelp is rich in taurine, which can reduce cholesterol in blood and bile. The dietary fiber alginic acid contained in kelp can inhibit the absorption of cholesterol.

garlic

Garlic contains a mixture of sulfides, which can lower blood cholesterol, prevent thrombosis and help increase the content of high density lipoprotein.

apple

Apples are rich in potassium, which can excrete excess potassium salt in the body and maintain normal blood pressure.

milk

Milk contains more calcium, which can inhibit the activity of cholesterol synthase in human body and reduce the absorption of cholesterol.

sweet potato

Sweet potato contains more cellulose, which can absorb more gastrointestinal water, lubricate the digestive tract and play a laxative role.

honey

Honey is a good dietary flavor supplement because of its rich nutrition and unique taste. The content of glucose and fructose in honey is very high, and excessive intake can easily lead to obesity. Babies should pay attention to the risk of botulism when eating honey.

Extended data

Be sure to have breakfast.

Breakfast is one of the three meals a day, which is closely related to metabolism and weight loss. Many studies show that people who eat breakfast are more likely to lose weight than those who don't. Because people's metabolic rate is very low during sleep, they can only resume rising when they eat again. Therefore, if you ignore breakfast, your body can't burn fat before lunch as usual.

This is why it is wise to eat a diet containing 300-400 kilocalories for breakfast, because breakfast is the starter of metabolism. Researchers at Australian universities compared the effects of high-fat breakfast and high-fiber carbohydrate breakfast, and found that people who ate high-fat meals were hungry faster after meals. It takes longer for the body to digest and absorb a high-fiber carbohydrate diet than a fatty food, so as not to cause large fluctuations in blood sugar levels, so it will take longer to be hungry. Therefore, breakfast should contain a lot of high-fiber carbohydrates.

Eat more protein.

Studies have shown that adequate intake of protein can improve the metabolic level of human body and make human body burn 150-200 kilocalories every day. Protein is mainly composed of amino acids, and it takes more time for the body to digest such foods than to digest fats and carbohydrates. Therefore, to break them down, you need to burn more calories. Of course, this does not mean that people's diet must be dominated by high protein. However, you should ensure that 10%-35% of the total daily calories come from protein (such as fish, chicken, low-fat cheese, yogurt and beans), so as to achieve a balanced diet.

Iron supplement

Iron is very important for fitness. If iron intake is insufficient, the body will not be able to deliver enough oxygen to cells, thus reducing the level of metabolism. Adults should supplement18mg iron every day. In order to achieve this goal, you can either take iron, take multivitamins, or eat more iron-rich foods, such as lean meat, chicken, soybeans, fortified grains and so on.

Eat more "good" carbohydrates. Patients with gastric diseases eat more refined carbohydrates such as bagels and white bread in autumn, which can make the insulin level fluctuate violently, promote the storage of fat in the body accordingly, and thus reduce the metabolic rate of the body. Therefore, when supplementing carbohydrates, people with high cellulose content, such as vegetables, fruits and whole grains, should be given priority. These are "good" carbohydrates, and these foods have little effect on insulin levels.
