The Book of Lost Energy
Know That There Are No Miracle Cures
If you start to search online on how to improve your metabolism, you will see a lot
of hacks and products to achieve your goals. These may include eating spicy foods,
drinking green tea, or taking in coffee extracts, and many others. The truth of the
matter is that while these things can impact your metabolism, they might not pose
any significant influence over your weight loss journey.
Another thing that you need to be on the lookout for are supplements. Some
supplements may claim to improve your metabolism. But once you reach the age
of 60, your health is very critical and that taking supplements may lead you to more
mishaps than benefits. So, for instance, eating spicy foods may trigger
gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) while taking in coffee extracts can cause
insomnia or sleeplessness. Remember that there is no such thing as a miracle cure
to boost your metabolism. So if you are struggling with a slow metabolism, seek
your doctor’s help so that he or she can rule out any underlying medical condition.
