258: Create A Metabolism-Boosting Mornin...

Dr. Mariza Snyder
About this episode

If You Want To Start Boosting Your Metabolism You Should:

  1. Incorporate one of Nagina’s three top morning nutrition recommendations to increase your metabolic flexibility 
  2. Find foods to ‘treat’ yourself in the evenings that actually make you feel good the next day
  3. Focus on adding in foods rather than subtracting foods for a more sustainable mindset

 

I truly believe that your morning routine sets your tone for the whole day. But did you know that your morning routine can also help you boost your metabolism and get rid of that stubborn weight just based on what you are putting in your body?

 

A Metabolism Routine Built for Busy Women

Nagina Abdullah is a health coach for women professionals, physicians, and 7-figure entrepreneurs who teaches women how to lose 20-60+ pounds even while working 60+ hours a week. Nagina created her metabolism-boosting morning routine to help herself and other women who have tried everything and are ready to successfully lose weight and create a sustainable and fun lifestyle change.

 

Why Your Mornings Hold the Power

Nagina’s routine mimics my morning routine exactly, which is why I am so excited to have her on the show today. Nagina knows first hand the importance of a solid morning routine and has created her plan to help women focus on adding foods that make them feel better instead of playing into the diet culture mindset of restriction. 

Most people don't associate losing weight with having fun, but with Nagina’s, the two go hand in hand and create sustainable, long-lasting results.

 

Boosting Your Metabolism Starts With Your Plate

When you have a metabolism-boosting morning routine, you will see slimming in your belly and the numbers on the scale dropping no matter if you are in perimenopause, menopause, or post-menopause. Nagina has seen women who have been trying to lose weight for decades finally start to see the results they have been craving with her super simple morning routine that focuses on additions instead of restrictions. 

With Nagina’s simple, cheap and easy solutions, you can embrace the tested and perfected fat-burning framework that helps you boost your metabolism throughout the day solely based on what is on your plate. If you are looking for the exact steps you need to get the weight off, keep it off, and boost your metabolism while having fun, this is the morning routine for you.
