Rev Up Your Metabolism and Keep Your Weight Down

Put your metabolism to work for you. Now’s the perfect time to incorporate some metabolism-revving tips into your daily regimen and avoid gaining weight.

Rev Up Your Body’s Engine

We eat food for fuel. When we burn it for energy to keep our bodies running, the process creates heat. Herbalife products assist the body’s engine to burn fuel efficiently, helping your metabolism run at its optimum and function well.

 

Daily Regimen Tips

• Engage in 30 minutes of activity every day to help minimize weight gain and to raise metabolic rate.
• Tone your muscles by weight training three days a week.
• Start small: Try walking with one- to two-pound weights.
• Don’t eat fewer than 1,200 calories a day. Eating too little might slow your metabolism.
• Never skip breakfast. It might slow your metabolism.

Use Herbalife products every day, including Total Control® and Herbal Concentrate.

Have a supply of Herbalife products on hand and reach for these when you want a snack: Protein Bars, Roasted Soy Nuts with Cardia®† Salt, Soup Mix and Drink Mix.

Escape the Fat-Free Diet Trap

Today, supermarket shelves are packed with foods that call to dieters with the words “FAT FREE.” But as conscientious weight watchers load their shopping carts with fat-free foods week after week, many discover this alarming fact: Their weight is going up!   Getting fat on fat-free Since the fat-free craze began in recent years, statistics show we’ve actually grown fatter rather than thinner. Although we’ve been taught to think of fat as the culprit in the weight-loss battle, it isn’t the only one. That’s because a food that’s fat free isn’t necessarily calorie free. Many fat-free foods are actually very high in sugar and carbohydrate calories. And these calories, when eaten in excess, convert into the one thing we’ve been taught to avoid: fat!   Lose the fat from your body, not your diet. Ironically, to burn fat and lose weight, you need a certain amount of “good fat.” That’s why Herbalife Weight-Management Programs stresses the importance of a well-balanced diet that includes enough good fats—like those found in fish and olive oil—along with Herbalife’s highly nutritious meal replacement shakes and snacks. By avoiding the fat-free craze and giving your body the complete nourishment it needs with Herbalife’s Cellular Nutrition supplements and weight-management products, you’ll steadily lose weight and feel healthier as you do it.
