Can binging once a week boost metabolic rates?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: The best way to boost metabolic rates is to eat every 3 hours and exercise frequently. If you starve or eat less frequently and then binge your body will have super slow metabolic rates (starvation mode) and store everything from the binge.
