Catch the running bug
You’ll continue to burn fat after your jog: People who run for at least four hours a week melt more calories than non-runners, even when they’re not running, a Yale University School of Medicine study reports.


Crank it up early
Working out harder during the first half of your workout and taking it easier during the second burns up to 23% more fat than doing the opposite, according to a study from The College of New Jersey.

4. Perform one push-up. Then walk your hands back to your feet and return to your starting position.

Quick Guide To The Ketogenic Diet

Most cells of the body are adapted to utilize glucose, fatty acids, protein and substances known as ketones for energy, however, cancer cells uniquely rely on glucose for energy. Glucose is derived from sugar and carbohydrates in the diet.

A ketogenic diet is rich in natural fats and includes a moderate amount of protein. It restricts foods that are high in sugar and starchy carbohydrates, such as rice, breads, pastries, pasta, cereal and biscuits, and potatoes.  


Instead, the emphasis is on eating more legumes, vegetables, some fruit, lean chicken, red meat, fish, eggs, nuts and seeds and also increasing the consumption of good fats such as olive oil, coconut oil and avocados.
