Is it possible for you to boost your metabolism by shocking your body with heavy foods?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Boosting metabolism: No, heavy food won't boost your metabolism. Will certainly get you gain weight and feel more sluggish. Metabolic rate is partly genetic. Increased regular exercise and eating food rich in Vitamin and anti-oxidant is the way to go to increase your metabolism. Taking stimulant such as excessive caffeine and even cocaine can boost your metabolism temporarily but will hurt your body in the long run.
