    No specific food will "rev up" your metabolism.

    Chilli will speed your metabolism, as will fresh parsley.

    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.

    Any metabolic advantage you get from eating a certain food is temporary and should not be relied on long term to boost metabolism. Muscle boosts your metabolism.

    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

    Also not true. Link to guys below who eat only once or twice a day. They just eat larger meals.
