Many people today are coming to realize the effects that metabolism has on fat loss. The equation is simple more calories burned the more weight is lost. And it is our metabolism that burns those calories.
Scientifically metabolism is the process whereby food is converted into energy. The product of this process is calories, or heat units. These calories are burned as nutrients (fat, protein, and carbohydrates) are oxidized to be used as energy for your body to function. The total measure of this process is where we get the term calories burns.
So in other words metabolism is what you are looking for, you want to have your food converted to energy and not converted to fat storage. Of course just like any system in your body this process is based on need. If you need to have more calories to burn then your body will metabolize more food into energy to supply the demand. However if you need less then the extra nutrients go to storage in places like your hips, butt and thighs.
Now doctors have know for decades that it is hormones that regulate this need for energy, and so it follows they also regulate the need for an increased metabolism. However until recently the only way to regulate the hormones that in turn regulate our metabolism was to do so through drugs. Either adding synthetic versions of the hormones directly into the blood stream (such as HGH - human growth hormone) by injecting them with a needle. Or by taking oral supplements such as steroids, and thyroid medications that cause the body to react by increasing specific hormone production.
Recently, though, nutritional scientists have also discovered that using foods as stimulants can produce these fat burning hormones. Specifically using foods in particular combinations. This scientific use of foods then causes the same hormonal cascade that was once only possible by taking drugs. The term for these types of diets is called Calorie Shifting. These types of diets regulate the keystone to an increased metabolism, which are hormones.
