    I feel like regular exercise ramps up my metabolism.

    Whether that is actually try, or if it matters, is a subject of debate: https://www.health.harvard.edu/diet-and-weight-loss/does-metabolism-matter-in-weight-loss

    Fiber has a higher tef. It does "speed" up metabolism, it just takes more energy to break down.

    Oops I mean does not speed up metabolism... but does have a higher tef. That's what I get for posting while I eat breakfast. Lol

    I take kelp tablets to kick start my metabolism - packed full of amino acids and minerals - best thing I ever bought!

    I would recommend doing your research though and speaking to your doctor first as not all natural supplements suit everyone.

    Your metabolism doesn't need a "kick start." It works 24/7. If it didn't, you'd be dead. ;)
