More muscle = faster metabolism. Muscle burns more calories than fat, even at rest!
Metabolism slows with age. You lose muscle and burn fewer calories over time.
Men usually have higher metabolism than women due to more muscle and less body fat.
Some people naturally burn calories faster due to their genes.
Exercise boosts your metabolic rate! Especially strength training and high-intensity workouts.
Protein-rich foods increase calorie burn. Spicy foods and frequent meals can also play a role.
Lack of sleep or too much stress? Both can slow metabolism and increase fat storage.
Cold weather can boost metabolism. Your body burns calories to stay warm!
Caffeine and green tea slightly increase calorie burn. But don’t overdo it!
