10 tricks to lose weight
- Eat, because starving makes you fat. If you consume less than 1,000 calories a day, your metabolism slows down and, if this is your usual way of eating, it will be more difficult for you to lose weight, whatever diet you do.
- Make recipes that are twice as full. For a diet to work, you have to eat less, but the "how" to do it is essential. If on your table there are appetizing dishes that enter your eyes, you will feel more satisfied. And if, in addition, they are prepared in half the time, you will be happy. For this reason, Dr. Beltrán has made sure that all the dishes that you will find in the downloadable menu are quick to prepare, filling and tasty.
- Eat foods that are spicy. Hot spices (chili, black pepper, cayenne, hot paprika, mustard seeds, ginger…) accelerate the rate of your metabolism because they have a thermogenic action. That is, they raise your body temperature, which causes you to burn more calories and more fat. Be careful, if you don't like spicy, you can also include other spices such as cinnamon. According to a study, consuming ¼ tablespoon of cinnamon a day speeds up metabolism.
- Take infusions and probiotics to avoid abdominal bloating. Normal diets usually include foods that increase abdominal bloating (fruit, lettuce, legumes). To counteract this, take anti-gas infusions for example, like the ones you'll find in our downloadable menu. In addition, Dr. Beltrán has also included foods and preparations that prevent this balloon effect, such as natural diuretics and probiotics.
- Includes more fish and better blue. Eating oily fish, which is rich in omega 3 fatty acids (sardines, salmon or tuna), improves your metabolism, in addition to reducing inflammation and protecting the heart. Omega-3 acids have also been seen to help reduce resistance to leptin, a hormone that facilitates weight loss by suppressing appetite. In addition to fish, nuts, avocado and chia or flax seeds are also rich in omega 3. That is why in the menu of the diet to lose weight that we propose you will find a lot of fish and nuts.
- Get iodine and give your thyroid a boost. An excuse to make an aperitif with prawns, anchovies or cockles is that fish and shellfish provide iodine, a very important mineral for the proper functioning of the thyroid, the gland that most influences metabolism. If the thyroid is insufficiently active, the metabolism slows down and we gain weight. But there are other foods rich in iodine, such as spinach, broccoli, garlic or onion, you will also find them in our diet to lose weight.
- Sign up for fat burning infusions. Such as the ginger pineapple infusion, which is prepared by infusing a slice of ginger root and then incorporating the juice of two pineapple slices. Besides speeding up the metabolism, the mixture is very cleansing and tastes delicious. Or try the chamomile cinnamon infusion sweetened with half a teaspoon of cinnamon, which helps regulate blood sugar metabolism, reducing cravings and helping to burn abdominal fat. We also propose these two infusions in our diet.
- Exercise because muscle consumes more fat. Exercise is the great ally of a diet to lose weight since it activates the metabolism, being able to make it up to 3 times more active. If not, look at these figures: with a sedentary life you burn 26 kcal per kilo of weight per day. If you get in shape you will burn 35-40 kcal per kilo of weight per day. This is because the muscle, to maintain itself, needs to consume more calories. In fact, even at rest, your muscles continue to burn calories. And what can you do to gain muscle? It combines cardiovascular exercise (walking, swimming, running) or exercise to burn fat with toning exercises, such as that practiced with weights or to strengthen parts of the body, such as the abdomen.
- Take a sauna a week. Taking a sauna revolutionizes your metabolism by forcing it to work harder to keep your body temperature stable, which contributes to burning more calories. But in addition, the sauna helps eliminate toxins, such as some of the chemicals that according to the British National Institute of Public Health cause overweight and that can affect the thyroid, the gland in charge of regulating metabolism.
- Sleep 1 hour more. According to a Swedish study, a night of little or interrupted sleep affects many hormones related to metabolism. For example, the levels of ghrelin, the hormone that sends hunger signals to the brain, increase and you end up eating more. In addition, sleeping more than 7-8 hours contributes to slowing down the metabolism, because the body at rest needs less energy to function.
