How to speed up your Metabolism

Now that spring is here for us Northern Hemispher people. Here is a simple Eating program to help get you back into shape.

Depending on when your workout you want to incorporate at least 20 grams of protein before and after you workout. This is the stuff I use:

I tried this Vegan Rice Protein, but I didn’t like it…it taste like I was eating flour :/ But if you are a Vegan there are very few choices you have.

Here is my normal Whey / Casein / Soy Protein that I use for its time released properties. The Whey is quickly absorbed into the blood stream, Casein or Egg Protein is very slow to absorbed by your body and Soy is right in between the Whey and Casein. This is very good stuff and its easy to find if you in North America

A friend of mine turned me on to this stuff…it’s basically an all soy protein cereal. ½ cup is 25 grams of soy protein, so it’s very concentrated.

Breakfast

Charles Natural Grains + 4 hard boiled egg whites + Glass water

I personally recommend you hard boil your eggs because over 90% of the protein content is absorbable in hard boiled eggs versus only 51% when they are cooked. A regular large hard boiled egg contains about 12 grams of protein; if you only eat the egg white it contains about 8 grams of protein. So with just 4 hard boiled egg whites you have over 30 grams of slow release Casein Protein.

Snack

Protein Shake:

One of my favorite shakes is Ginger Snaps, my daughter and I was hooked on these when I was living in Japan.

27g Vanilla Whey

5 Ginger Snap Cookies

Half of a can of regular (not diet) 7-up

Ice + Water

Blend it in a good blender….and oh boy!
