Boost your metabolic rate by 30%

Reboot your daily metabolism with water

Increasing your water intake is an incredible way to boost your daily metabolic rate, especially when you make a habit of doing it right before you eat.

Add a few teaspoons of chia seeds or freshly ground flaxseed to a tall glass of water 30 to 60 minutes before eating, to help curb your appetite.

Your metabolic rate

When you drink water half an hour before eating, you could boost your daily metabolic rate by up to 30%.

Metabolism is the rate in which your body burns calories, so if you're trying to lose weight, making sure that you're increasing your metabolism every day is important.

How to get more water into your day

• Start your day on the right track and drink a glass of water with lemon juice as soon as you wake up, before breakfast.

• Keep a bottle of water on your desk at work and drink a glass every hour. This is also a great way to make yourself get up and visit the ladies' room regularly throughout the day!
