Drink Coffee and Burn Body Fat

Coffee First of all, moderation is key when it comes to any beverage containing caffeine.
Caffeine does have addictive properties and can lead to insomnia and anxiety if used to often or too much.
So, keep track of your intake and avoid overdoing it.
However, the benefit of the caffeine in coffee is that is speeds up your metabolism.
This is known as a "metabolic enhancer", according to Dr.
Judith Stern of the University of California at Davis.
Since caffeine is a stimulant, this naturally makes sense.
What studies have revealed is it can help you burn you more calories than you normally would, up to almost 10 percent more! For overall nutrition sake, it's best to limit your intake to a single cup in the morning and one in the afternoon.
Also, since you are trying to lose weight, stay away from the high fat high sugar coffee drinks.
You know what I'm talking about - the froo-froo lattes and specially coffee drinks that are loaded with empty unwanted calories.
Refrain from adding any unnecessary calories to your coffee beverage.
If you need a little flavor try skim milk and a calorie free sweetener - like Stevia.
It is also good to know that coffee has a half-life of 4-6 hours.
So, if you have 2 cups of coffee at 3:00pm you still have the equivalent of 1 cup of coffee in your system at 9pm.
If you have trouble sleeping, limit coffee intake after 12:00pm just to be sure you don't suffer from insomnia due to the caffeine still remaining in your system.
Including this beverage in any sensible weight loss plan will give your body the extra metabolic kick that it needs to keep allowing you to lose that body fat.
Your nutrition or diet plan should never be less than 1,200 calories per day.
Consuming 1,500 to 1,800 calories per day will allow lose weight quite effectively and at that intake level you don't risk lacking the proper nutrition your body needs.
Losing 1-2 pounds per week is a healthy goal and a realistically attainable one.
Attempting to lose more than 1% of your bodyweight a week can lead to malnutrition or over training.
Stick with a reasonable goal so that it can be maintainable for the rest of your life.
