According to Snyder, part of the reason metabolism gets sluggish as you age is because build-up in the digestive tract clogs your system and prevents your organs from functioning at peak performance levels. “Once we remove obstructions, everything functions better, including elimination, digestion, and metabolism,” she says.
To clear out the pipes, so to speak, Snyder suggests consuming more enzymes and fiber together. Also, stay away from dairy, gluten, and refined sugars, which can clog you up by creating more mucus in your system.
Speaking of improving digestion, rooibos tea with mint is another great tool in your metabolism boosting toolkit, Snyder shares. “It’s high in antioxidants and flavonoids, which promote youthfulness and great skin, while mint is a great source for promoting better digestion,” she says. Increased metabolism and better skin? Done.
