Boost Metabolism, According To A Certified Nutritionist

You often hear that a speedy “metabolism” is a major key to making you leaner…but what exactly is your metabolism? The Cleveland Clinic defines “metabolism” as the chemical processes that take place as your body converts foods and drinks into energy. Even when you’re at rest, your metabolism is always working by helping you digest food, manage hormone levels, and regulate body temperature, among other important functions. To make sure this process is in healthy working order, there are certain foods you can eat to boost your metabolism.

Help Your Memory~

Keep your memory sharp with these tips

Looking for more ways to boost your memory? Here are some other activities to build into your routine, according to the Mayo Clinic:

  1. Get active: Exercise increases blood flow to your brain. The Department of Health and Human Services says healthy adults should get 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity (like brisk walking) every week.
  2. Exercise your brain, too: Think of your brain like a muscle — you have to use it to stay in shape! Try crossword puzzles, card games, or other mentally stimulating activities.
  3. Be organized: It’s harder to remember things when you’re living in a messy environment. Keep lists, a planner, or the calendar in your phone to keep track of appointments and important to-dos. And think like Marie Kondo: Every item in your home should have its own place!
  4. Get enough sleep: Sleep is vital for memory health, so don’t skimp — healthy adults should get seven to nine hours nightly, according to the National Sleep Foundation.
  5. Eat healthy foods: A nutritious diet will also benefit your brain and memory health. Focus on fruits, veggies, whole grains, and low-fat proteins like fish and beans.
  6. Get chronic conditions under control: Living with a chronic illness like diabetes or depression? Managing those and your overall health will also help you protect your brain and memory health.
