12 Tips to Pump Up Your Metabolism
4. Ice Water
No, we’re not suggesting you take ice water baths, we mean drink ice water. Researchers in Germany found that subjects who drank up to six cups of cold water per day raised their resting metabolism by as much as 50 calories per day.
That may not sound like much but look at it this way: if you did nothing else, changed nothing else in your diet, but drank ice water, you would lose 5 lbs a year. Your metabolism has to work much harder to warm up your body again after you drink that cold water.
So ask for your water on the rocks.
