Tired of suffering from an incredibly slow rate of fat loss?  Looking for a way to enhance your results so you can finally get that body you’ve dreamed of? If this describes you, it’s vital that you take a look at a few of the top techniques that you can use with your diet to enhance the overall rate of fat loss you experience.
Many people are quick to focus on what they can do with their diets to decrease their overall calorie intake and while bringing your calorie level lower is important to get fat loss moving, you should also be focusing on what you can do to boost the metabolic rate as well.
When the metabolism is running faster you’re going to be able to consume more calories but yet still lose weight just as quickly.
Let’s look at what you need to know to dramatically enhance your fat loss just with a few simple tweaks to your plan.
Up Your Protein Intake
The single most effective way to boost your metabolism by up to 30% instantly is to increase the intake of protein in your diet.
Every time you eat foods that are rich in protein your body is going to have to spend a number of calories just breaking these foods down.  As it does this that means that it will actually net fewer calories total from that food, thus you will lose weight faster.
The best protein sources to include?  Aim for the leanest sources that are almost 100% pure protein so you don’t get any tag-along fats or carbs with it.
This includes sources such as chicken breasts, turkey breast, white fish, egg whites, whey protein powder, and fat free cottage cheese.  You should aim to eat one of these with each and every meal or snack you consume.
  Include Dairy Products

Second, don’t be so quick to cut out dairy products from your diet if your goal is maximum fat loss.  Many people do just that thinking that dairy products are too high in fat and calories to help you see results but this isn’t the case.
Dairy products can actually help increase the amount of fat that’s lost around the abdominal region so if there’s one food that you absolutely do want to have included in your diet, this is it.
Cottage cheese, as mentioned above, will be the best option as far as protein goes, but other good dairy products to consider are skim milk, low-sugar and low fat yogurt, as well as ricotta cheese.  Just don’t opt for whole milk, sour cream, or ice cream as these will contain too many calories and saturated fats or sugars.
Try Adding Cayenne Pepper
Another sneaky way to boost your metabolism so you can burn more calories on a daily basis is to add some cayenne pepper to your meals.  This is one spice that will not only cause the body to heat up slightly but in doing so it’ll also raise your basal metabolic rate for a few hours after consumption.
If you prefer not to use cayenne pepper, chilli pepper works in the same manner so that’s another approach that you may want to think about.
Have A High Carb Day
While there’s no questioning the fact that a low carb diet can help you see faster weight loss results, one thing that you must understand is that if you go without carbohydrates for too long on your diet plan, your metabolism will slow because of it.
Carbohydrates are directly tied in with the basal metabolic rate so it’s vital that once in a while you increase them upwards again and literally ‘reset’ your metabolism.
Every one to two weeks on your low carb diet plan, have a very high carbohydrate day where you literally eat any carbohydrate-rich foods that you want.  Breads, cereals, pastas, rice, bagels – you name it, you can have it.
Just do be sure at the same time to keep these foods lower in fat as if you consume too many carbs and fats, you could start to see fat gain. If you keep it to just high carb foods, no fat gain will result but rather, you’ll get a nice boost to the metabolism.
Get Enough Essential Fatty Acids
Another critical element that must be in place with your diet program is enough essential fatty acids, otherwise known as omega fats.  These are found in foods such as salmon, mackerel, flaxseeds, and walnuts, and should be taken on a daily basis as well.
These foods will help to increase your insulin sensitivity, so that when you do eat dietary carbohydrates, your body is better able to handle them and direct them towards the muscle cells for fuel, rather than converting them directly to body fat.
Insulin insensitivity is a big issue for many people who are trying to lose weight and develops after years and years of eating plenty of highly processed carbohydrates.  If you focus on eating more healthy fats in your diet rather than eating those processed carbs and saturated fat sources, you will dramatically boost the results you see.
Plus, these healthy fats will quickly help to kill your hunger levels making it that much easier to stick with the lower calorie diet plan.
So there you have some of the top tips to remember as you go about your weight loss diet to increase the metabolism so that you don’t have to exist on such a small amount of food to get fat loss taking place.
Most people really dislike the idea of dieting but by using these quick tricks dieting doesn’t have to be nearly has hard as you thought it was.  Instead, you’ll stay satisfied, have plenty of energy, and get the exact results you’ve been looking for.
