How to use this info-
They are in order of effectiveness/increasing longevity/low adverse effects. I work to trying one new thing per week & after trying a bunch can put the most effective for me together & see a large physical (energy), mental (cognition) & emotional (mood) boost!
What may increase metabolism & give a lot of physical & emotional & mental energy all day long?
Carbon 60
C60 in sufficient doses appears to give people a lot of energy, as well as deeper sleep, stop even genetically induced cancers (in animal studies), & extend life.

Methylene blue
Methylene blue has been used over 100 years in medicine. It appears to significantly increase mitochondrial energy & improves physical energy, mental cognition & emotional mood.
Spirulina
Spirulina is a blue-green algae that is the only source of EPA & DHA fatty acids (in fish oil) that appears to help cognition, mood, energy more with higher dosages & work against cancer, inflammation & pain, liver damage & chelate (bind to & eliminate) many toxic heavy metals.
MCT oil
MCT oil (from coconut oil) is the only oil that is easier to use as energy than store as fat.
When a quarter teaspoon is taken under the tongue every four hours or on food, people (including athletes) have a lot more physical, emotional & mental energy all day.\
People usually start small with a quarter teaspoon every four hours. The body with adjust to larger amounts with gradual increases.
Eventually it can be used as a substitute for other oils, but usually right before serving. It has a low smoke point for cooking so is best only with low heat.
\When substituting one for one with other oils MCT oil can increase weight loss.
MCT oil reduces hunger during fasting as well.
When MCT oil is used after eating carbohydrates it helps people on a ketogenic diet stay in ketosis.
Exercise after eating carbohydrates also helps people stay in ketosis.
MCT oil helps to reduce seizures when added to a ketogenic diet.
MCT oil can help cognition in people who are addicted to alcohol (especially if heavy use for decades)
MCT oil may help people with Alzheimer’s

Mucuna dopa
Mucuna dopa, an extract of the velvet bean plant, appears to increase physical, emotional, & mental energy the older people are. Dopamine drops after 30 and mucuna dopa increases dopamine. People start with 50-100mg every week then increase it if it’s effective. Too high of doses can increase addictive behaviors. It has L-dopa which is used to treat Parkinson’s disease
Prr
Onions, mustard & peppers
Onions, mustard, & peppers all increase metabolism & energy more than any other foods in one British study. I’ve tested this when at the ballpark & eating onion relish with mustard DID keep me significantly warmer.
Malik magnesium
Malic magnesium has been reported to increase energy. Magnesium is an essential supplement that helps leg cramps, migraines, constipation, bone building and helps treat a myriad of other health problems. I take up to 2000 mg of magnesium daily.
EGCH
Green tea has EGCG which increases metabolism.
Cold exposure
Being in the cold or drinking cold water increases metabolism.
Carbs at end of meal
Eating the portion of the meal that has carbohydrates at the end of the meal gives energy for walking or light to moderate exercise to improve insulin sensitivity & moderate any blood sugar rise after a meal.
Wim Hof breathing
The Wim Hof method- no longer feel cold/hot/stress/autoimmune overreaction, have a lot more energy
Wim Hof is a Dutch man who learned to become immune to cold, heat, & control his immune response to a strong degree. He has been in ice up to the neck in a tub for almost 2 hours. He has ran a marathon in a desert at 104 degrees with no water or food, and one above the Arctic circle barefoot. He has killed an injected bacteria that should have made him very sick in a medical experiment. Now he is teaching others how to do it, and it only takes one minute a day & people get big benefits after just the first time.
In this link is an explanation of how to do this his way, which includes meditation, a breathing method, and cold exposure:
http://highexistence.com/the-wim-hof-method-revealed-how-to-consciously-control-your-immune-system/
Here is the simplified one minute a day version-
If you have a heart or lung condition ask your doctor if fast breathing & holding your (non) breath is ok for you. If you are sick you can wait until healthy before starting. Wim Hof wisely recommends only doing this from a secure sitting position for safety.
What I found important is heavy breathing for oxygenation for 30 breaths/30-60 seconds, then breathing out completely & holding the nonbreath (empty lungs) until my body makes me take a breath (15-30 seconds). It’s ok if the first time is only 15 seconds, our ability gets a little better every time.
Wim Hof recommends exercising during the breath holding like pushups or some other exercise on the ground to avoid falling. I do it after eating my rice (carbs) so I have the energy for the exercise, but if people would rather just hold the breath it appears to work nearly as well. The carbs also give me the energy for the heavy breathing so I have the energy to do it twice a day after eating carbs rather than just once.
After I did this once for one minute I was able to be comfortable in my apartment at three degrees colder than ever before for a full day (57 degrees). Every time I do this I am able to experience greater & greater amounts of cold. Wif Hof recommends testing ourselves with cold showers or ice buckets, but I have seen all the benefits without.
I have tested myself by being very comfortable after one week in my apartment in the low 50s for hours. Most people don’t like the cold and the knowledge they don’t have to do the cold challenge but will still lose their sensitivity to cold makes it more likely they will do the exercise. We know its working when we walk outside in the cold & it doesn’t bother us anymore & we don’t feel like turning on our car to warm it up anymore.
One funny thing about the ability to endure cold- my knees still don’t like long exposure to cold temperatures even if the rest of my body has no problem:-)
Conscious control of cold & heat
Wim Hof suggests paying attention to how the body feels & consciously giving energy to different parts, especially if they are cold. This is supposed to give conscious control of our body temperature. I did this in a sauna when too hot to stay in & thought about being cool inside & I was soon comfortable enough to stay another 40 minutes. Meditating seems to improve the conscious control of body temperature. I’ve also done this when out in the cold & it works just as well.
Control of stress
I didn’t read that the breathing technique also helps the stress response, but I have found that if I feel stress I can lower it consciously in a way different than just meditation. It feels like a conscious control of my cortisol levels (the stress hormone).
Autoimmune responses
He & the people he trains have been able to kill bacterial infections that should have made them very sick in an experiment after just 90 repetitions. That’s three months when doing it once a day. It appears that their bodies are shutting down the overactive immune response to the bacterial infection. Other people have noted their autoimmune disorders (like rheumatoid arthritis) being helped greatly by the breathing method.

Cold exposure?
So I suspect that we get the benefits even if we don’t do the extreme cold exposure and that holding our nonbreath/empty lungs is the key. Doing this once a day is easily possible (I do it after eating so I have the energy) and results start immediately. This is a funny kind of body hack that changes more than any other I’ve ever learned to help us be comfortable and stress and autoimmune problems free.
Conscious control over internal temperature
What the extreme cold exposure coupled with meditating on being warm appears to do is give conscious control over body temperature, especially with practice. We can all use this when we are in a situation we feel cold in despite the Wim Hof method’s help.
