Sound yummy? Okay, Ladies. Let’s start

1. The thermic effect is… ?

The thermic effect of food (TEF) is like a fiery dance within your body, as it ignites the burning of calories when you indulge in a delicious meal. Imagine the crackling sound of your metabolism being boosted, like a flickering flame growing stronger. By consuming foods with a high TEF, you are essentially adding fuel to this metabolic fire, accelerating its intensity. In laymen’s terms, the thermic effect of food (TEF) relates to how many calories your body burns up when you eat. So eating high TEF foods is a metabolic rate booster, and it’s a way to speed up your metabolism (The Thermic Effect Of Food (What is TEF?), 2020).

Different types of food play different roles in this process, some demanding more energy to digest, thus causing your metabolism to soar to greater heights. It’s like a symphony of macronutrients, each note contributing to the harmonious rise of your metabolic tempo. Understand the increase in metabolism from the thermic effect is largely dependent on the types of food you eat (Fat Loss Diet: Foods With a High Thermic Effect – Instant Knockout, 2020).

2. High Thermic Effect Foods that burns calories

Thermogenic foods, with their ability to boost metabolism and their high fat or protein content, require more energy to digest, consequently raising your metabolism. As you indulge in a diet rich in thermic foods, even during moments of rest, your metabolic rate experiences an upward surge. The “thermic effect” is a common term used by researchers to describe this phenomenon. (10 Healthy Foods That Burn Fat – The Thermic Effect of Foods, 2020)

Here is a list of foods with a high thermic effect:

• Eggs
• Fatty Fish
• Apple Cider Vinegar
• Turmeric
• Green Tea
• Ginger
• Peppers
• Coffee
• Olive Oil

3. How to boost your TEF

So, now you are aware of a handful of calorie burning foods. And you have a strong desire to maximize your calorie burning – just like anyone else would. It’s important to acknowledge, though, that your TEF is only a fraction of your overall calorie expenditure. However, there are ways to enhance it. 

Try this to boost your TEF:

• Get regular exercise.
• Drink more coffee, green tea, or other drinks with caffeine.
• Consume more ginger.
• Eat larger meals (instead of smaller, frequent meals) throughout the day.
• Eat more protein.
