| Boost Your Energy: Effective Tips to Enhance Metabolism and Vitality |
Your body is constantly using energy. Regardless of whether you are sleeping, doing a push-up, sitting at your desk, walking the dog, or munching popcorn, it is inconsequential. In order to maintain life and carry out everyday tasks, your body must somehow generate sufficient energy via several processes.
Certain energy-intensive processes are inherently automated. Your heart must beat. You get ocular muscle spasms. The contraction and relaxation of your lung muscles are necessary. The liver is responsible for metabolizing organic molecules. It is necessary for your kidneys to filter blood. While you have no direct influence over these processes, there are dietary and lifestyle choices you can make that alter how much energy your body “automatically” burns.
Furthermore, on a voluntary basis, there are procedures that require energy. You must fire the muscles in your legs to sit down in your computer chair, to move your fingers to clip the leash on the dog, and to contract your gripping muscles to grasp a handful of popcorn. Each of these operations demands energy.
All of this energy is converted into microscopic units called calories. Metabolism is defined as the caloric total of all these chemical activities, whether automatic or deliberate, that must take place in order for the energy-producing process to proceed.
Mastering Metabolism Transforming Your Body's Energy Engine
Technically, metabolism is separated into four components: resting metabolic rate (RMR), thermal effect of eating (TEF), thermal effect of activity (TEA), and adaptive thermogenesis (AT).
Your resting metabolic rate (RMR) accounts for the greatest component of your metabolism, up to 75% of your total daily energy expenditure. RMR includes all the automatic processes your body must sustain in order to live: the action of your digestive, cardiovascular, and hormonal systems; the maintenance of proper body temperature; the preservation of sensitive electrical gradients in your cells; and the conductance of electrical transmissions through your nervous system.
Without your RMR, you would cease to exist. However, in the presence of certain important conditions mentioned in this book, your RMR may be slightly raised in a manner that not only preserves normal function but pushes the rate just slightly higher!
The TEF is the caloric total of all the energy activities necessary to digest, absorb, transport, metabolize, and store your meal. Believe it or not, this may account for up to 10% of your energy expenditure. Portions of this book discuss how the content and chemical structure of the meals you consume might enhance or reduce TEF.
The TEA is the simplest metabolic component to adjust and amounts to up to 30% of the total daily energy expenditure, depending on your degree of physical activity.
If you’re physically active, you’ve already made a step on the correct path toward improving your TEA.
The 100 ideas offered in this book will propel you light years ahead by offering you the knowledge of just which actions to execute, for how long, and with what intensity to raise your TEA above the ceiling.
The third component of metabolism, the AT, is your body’s “reaction” system. Basically, your metabolism will make sensitive rate variations in reaction to changes in the external or internal environment, such as physical or mental stress, hot or cold temperatures, and changes in the body’s hormone levels. In this book, there are some tactics that throw environmental "curveballs" at the AT, causing the body to adapt and maintain a highly sensitive metabolism.
It is also feasible to have an energy surplus. The Law of Conservation of Energy holds that energy cannot be generated or destroyed; it can only change form. Therefore, unused energy components present in meals are either removed as waste products or stored for future use, generally as fat.
To avoid this undesirable energy storage, the metabolic method proposed in this book is three-fold:
1. Practice dietary approaches that remove the excess energy.
2. Follow lifestyle recommendations that enhance energy expenditure.
3. Supplement with chemicals that have been proven to improve the body’s capacity to utilize energy.
Conclusion
Eatening provides energy. However, numerous events must occur within your body for turkey, mashed potatoes, and cranberries to create the energy required to speak, stand, sit, move, and breathe. Your body must split the meal into small pieces, then absorb and transfer them through a microscopic cell membrane to be broken into even smaller pieces. These components subsequently enter a microscopic cellular component called the mitochondria. The mitochondria are the cell’s powerhouse. It is here that oxygen's electrical potential is used to finally break apart that last small molecule of food and release energy!
There are hundreds of essential processes leading up to this ultimate release of energy, most of which need energy themselves. This energy is created from the calories, nutrients, vitamins, and minerals you’ve already ingested and is mixed with the oxygen you breathe. Any shortfall of the required components leads to a deficit of energy. Therefore, insufficient oxygen or inadequate food intake leads to inadequate energy.
Inadequate energy leads to a sluggish metabolism. This book not only explains how to secure appropriate nutrition from your food and supplement intake but also how to establish proper oxygen balance in your internal and exterior surroundings.
