Your body burns many more calories digesting protein than it does eating fat or carbohydrates. Protein helps stabilize the secretion of insulin into your blood stream, a process that can boost metabolism. The average person would benefit from protein intake at a minimum of 70 grams or higher each day. Good sources of protein include fish, white meat chicken, tofu, nuts, beans, eggs, and low-fat dairy products.
Spice Up Your Meals. Spicy foods have natural chemicals that can kick your metabolism into a higher gear. Cooking foods with a tablespoon of chopped red or green chili pepper can boost your metabolic rate. The effect is probably temporary, but if you eat spicy foods often, the benefits may add up. For a quick boost, spice up pasta dishes, chili, and stews with red pepper flakes.
