The Power of Protein: How Your Diet Can Naturally Increase Metabolism

Daily Habits That Support a Faster Metabolism A metabolism that runs efficiently helps your body convert food into usable energy instead of storing excess calories as fat. While genetics and age influence metabolic rate, consistent lifestyle choices can meaningfully nudge it higher. This blog post breaks down practical, science-backed habits you can weave into each day to keep your calorie-burning engine revved. Start the Day With Protein Eating 20-30 g of protein (eggs, Greek yogurt, plant-based shakes) at breakfast triggers a higher thermic effect of food (TEF), meaning you burn more calories during digestion. Protein also supports lean muscle, which itself raises resting metabolic rate. Build & Maintain Muscle Muscle tissue burns three times more calories at rest than fat tissue. Incorporate resistance training (weights, bands, body-weight moves) 2–4 times weekly to preserve or increase muscle mass, especially as you age. Add Short Bursts of Intensity High-Intensity Interv...
