Dr Oz: What is Metabolism?
Your metabolism is actually determined by your body type, with the two most common being “big in the middle” and “big on the bottom”. First let’s talk about how you can boost your metabolism if you are a person who is big in the middle.
- Eat high protein meals – At least half of your plate should be filled with a lean protein while the remainder should include a generous helping of vegetables.
- Add cinnamon to your diet – Cinnamon helps to regulate your blood sugar to keep you satisfied all day long.
- Eat only 1 serving of carbohydrates per day.
Dr Oz: Metabolism-Boosting Meal Ideas
Dr. Oz shared a few meal ideas to help you boost your metabolism to get rid of that stubborn belly fat.
Breakfast: Eat a serving of cottage cheese with blueberries and cinnamon sprinkled on top.
Lunch: Turkey Burger with cheese on a bed of lettuce, Apple slices sprinkled with cinnamon with peanut butter for dipping and a tall glass of iced coffee with cinnamon instead of sugar.

Dr Oz: Tips to Get a Smaller Backside
Is the problem area of your body more in your bottom area? Dr. Oz says this is especially a problem for women since estrogen is often to blame for big bottoms, so he shared the solution to boost your metabolism and get the backside you have always wanted.
- Eat a diet high in complex carbs – The key is to eat those carbs that are not high in fat content, like french fries. Focus on removing all “white” carbs from your diet, including white pasta, white rice and white bread. Dr. Oz says ¾ of your calories should be in the form of complex carbs.
- Add oregano to your meals

Lunch: Whole grain pasta tossed with vegetables and oregano, but very little oil.

I do not like cinnamon. Can I take a pill with each meal instead?
