Coffee helps stimulate metabolism

I am a dietician, and I wanted to say something to you guys that I think many of you will want to hear. Coffee can actually help aid in weight loss because since Caffeine is a stimulant, it will get the CNS (central nervous system) going at a faster pace, and actually help digest faster. Though I hate to say that you cancel the effect if you load your coffee up with unhealthy cremes and sugars.

I'm not a sugar in drinks fan so that's no problem. This is great news, but I think I probably undo any benefit by having something delicious to eat with the coffee!

I am quitting smoking and so far have gained 2 lbs. I know that doesn't sound like that but I can see that turning in to 20 over time. Glad to hear coffee might help me fight the weight gain.

Yes - when I am bulking up, I will sometimes have coffee or tea with sugar postworkout for an insulin spike. But you shouldn't want to gain some pounds in fat, you should focus on eating more calories, but in healthier foods.

I couldn't agree any more with you. Eating healthy is one thing most people overlook but I realized this is something very easy that can easily become routine.

This is a wonderful post to read as I drink my third mug this morning. I do like cream and sweetener in my coffee, but I do skim milk and stevia instead of sugar and half and half.

That's good. Skim milk is very healthy and is filled with proteins, and stevia isn't going to raise blood glucose so high like normal sugar. Excellent choice, caffeineneeded.

My advice to you - drink plain coffee, without ice-cream or milk, or else the coffee-induced metabolism is not going to help you.

Interesting discussions are going on. Well, I would like to add here that Coffee may give you a short-term boost in your metabolic rate, but take it in moderation, and try not to add too much sugar or creamer.

The metabolism effects of caffeine are very small; do not rely on them for weight loss. Plus the more caffeine you drink, the more your body gets used to it, making any metabolic benefits even more negligible.

I always wondered if caffeinated beverages like coffee stimulated the metabolism enough to boost weight loss! Thanks for confirming this! However, between the vanilla-flavored creamer and the sugar I add to it, I have to say my coffee hasn't helped me lose any weight!

I had heard this awhile back and it is good news. I do put cream in my coffee but usually not much and always sugar free. It is important to note too that you should still drink coffee in moderation.

A couple of cups of black coffee in a day will boost your metabolism. The metabolism boost only lasts for an hour and a half or so, but those are precious hours of burning fat. Coffee stimulates your senses and thanks to its caffeine content which stimulates metabolism and supports mental alertness and concentration.
