Blogging as a non-native speaker
This is my first post. I've been lurking for a while and finally decided to register and start posting.
I think about blogging but as a non-native speaker I'm not sure whether my English is good enough to deliver my thoughts and ideas in a proper way, I'm not going into freelance writing so I dont claim to be a writing expert or something like that. I just want to start a fitness/health blog and gradually build it up.
I know that may non-natives are actively engaged in online marketing but I'm not sure whether most of them create written content by. themselves.
I've just written a generic fitness article and I would be very thankful if you guys could give me some feedback on my writing.
Thanks a lot.
How to increase metabolism Metabolism speed is determined by many factors: age, gender, genetics, physical activity and even emotional condition. Some foods and drinks (micronutrients in them, to be more precise) can also increase metabolism. Protein Food that is high in protein (meat, fish, eggs, dairy products, etc.) increase metabolism, demanding more energy for digestion. It is considered that 25-30% of consumed protein calories are burnt during the digesting process itself. Besides that, protein food suppresses hunger for a long time. But do not forget about fats and carbohydrates – providers of many nutrients that protein does not contain. Excess of protein can overload liver and kidneys too. Spices Some spices, especially red pepper, are able to boost metabolism (up to 50%) for several hours; such increase is caused by heightened heartbeat and blood flow, which requires additional energy expenditure. Additionally, pepper disinfects food and improves the performance of the digestive tract. But don’t run mad after overly spicy and hot food: it is harmful for stomach and heart, which experiences increased burden. Nourishing Breakfast Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It is the common truth and don’t question it. If you trade breakfast for a cup of coffee, your body works in impaired mode whole day long. And, on the other hand, if you eat oats, eggs or yogurt then you metabolism is significantly increased. Liquids Liquid (even simple water) helps to digest food and burn calories. Drink more clean water and green tea. The last one possesses many useful features, including the ability to increase metabolism and burn fat. Drinks that contain caffeine are effective too: coffee, cacao, black and green tea. Caffeine not only increases heartbeat but also stimulates adrenaline release and nervous system. If you are not caffeine-sensitive, drink a cup of coffee or hot chocolate with breakfast and you will increase your metabolism, activate thought process and easily get into the active mood. Variety Vitamins (ascorbic acid and niacin, for instance), minerals (chrome, calcium, iodine and others) and also omega 3 fatty acids increase the speed of metabolism, improve digestion, activate hormonal system and aid in processing of fats and carbohydrates. Eat large varieties food but in small amounts. Include grapefruit, cabbage and dairy products into your diet and you will get all components essential for increased weight loss. Remember: metabolism increases when a person keeps healthy, balanced diet and indulges in various physical exercises. |
