Metabolism-Boosting Grapefruit Infusion Cocktail

We often try to eat less in order to lose weight. This mentality is not the best, mainly because it can lead to a metabolism that shuts down and makes us end up gaining weight instead of losing weight. When we eat such little calories our bodies, naturally, go into starvation mode and begin storing fat at any cost possible. This doesn’t mean, however, that you can eat all the junk food you please and expect to lose weight. 

In fact, there are many plant-based foods out there can can help boost your metabolism while you still consume the recommended amount of calories your body is meant to have. You may even be able to eat much more than you do now and still lose weight. Choosing nutrient rich foods that boost your metabolism will allow your body to efficiently turn food into energy which will allow you to reach your desired weight without feeling hungry all the time.

Start with this metabolism-boosting grapefruit infusion cocktail!
