Listen "Eat THIS to burn more calories [Metabolism Series 3 of 5]"
Episode Synopsis
You’ve heard that eating protein increases metabolism—but is that just another nutrition myth?
The Thermic Effect of Food (TEF) makes up about 10% of your daily calorie burn, and not all foods are created equal.
Let’s break down what TEF really does—and how to maximize it for fat loss and muscle building.
This is part 3 of a 5-part series on Metabolism this week. We are offering a free Nutrition 101 guide that shows you exactly how to estimate your true, dynamic metabolism to determine what calories and macros you need.
