    Eating constantly will rev up your metabolism. The downside is you might be filling up your calories too fast. I ate spinach with balsamic vinaigrette multiple times a day and I believe it sped up my metabolism. Super low calories so it was easy to fit!

    I think it thinned out my blood though, felt light headed if I ate too much lol

    This is so awesome I wanted to quote it again.

    I think Bro is here from BB.com.

    Welcome.

    Good luck on your spinach eating blood thinner faster metabolism.

    We aren't as dumb as we look.

    Well, some of us definitely are.

    Why are you trying to rev yourself, do you have a petcock?

    What nomeejerome above me said. There's no food that will magically rev up your metabolism.

    It's actually pretty well documented that certain foods do speed your metabolism. Science.
    Where's the link on a peer reviewed clinical study showing proof of this?

    I may be totally wrong, and I am certainly no expert in this but I thought I had heard something about cinnamon being good for the metabolism. I had a nutritionist suggest adding it to smoothies or to yogurt.

    It tastes good, but does nothing for metabolism.

    People are clearly confused here: Metabolism and Thermogenesis are related, however not the same thing...

    Green tea, coffee, cinnamon, hot peppers, etc do indeed temporarily increase thermogenesis (your body's use of fat), however do nothing for your overall metabolic rate.

    Not being snarky, but many of the above are correct in that muscle and genetics are the predetermining factors in overall metabolism.
