EAT SPICY FOODS TO REV UP YOUR METABOLISM

One of the things I do on a regular basis is add lots of ground cinnamon to my oatmeal everyday.  It not only revs up my metabolism, it helps regulate my blood sugar.  This is one of the best dietary changes I have made.  My point in telling you that is this; small diet changes can be very helpful in many ways.

Here is another good example: That beyond-hot mustard that comes with Asian takeout can rev your metabolism by 20 to 25 percent. "It boosts production of fat-burning hormones," says Lori Shemek, PhD, author of Fire-Up Your Fat Burn! Try adding one teaspoon to your usual vinaigrette.

If you aren't already using lots of spices in/on your food, give it a try.  You will be pleased with the results.
