Eat these foods to help boost your metabolism:
1. Cayenne Pepper – makes you sweat and raise your heart rate
2. Cinnamon – as little as a ¼ teaspoon of cinnamon helps your body to metabolize sugar 20 times faster and lower your body’s blood-sugar levels.
3. Ginger – expands blood vessels, increases body heat and metabolism by 20%
4. Citrus Fruits – Vitamin C reduces fat’s effectiveness and dilute it so that it exits the body
5. Apples and Berries – contains a lot of pectin which limits the amount of fat your cells absorb
6. Soybeans – keeps cells from accumulating fat
7. Bananas – boosts metabolism and regulates your body’s water balance
8. Essential Fatty Acids – lowers your level of leptin which has been linked with slower metabolism
9. Garlic – keeps your insulin low to maximize fat burning
10. Dairy Products – promotes weight loss and maintains muscle mass (be sure to eat the low fat kind though!)

You need to be careful with Cinnamon as too much or extended use can have some bad side effects. If you’re looking to lower blood sugar you can try a supplement like this: http://www.vitabase.com/supplements/diabetes/cinnamon.aspx
