QUESTION:
1. What are the best food to eat to increase my metabolism?
Answer: Vegetables, fruits, whole grains and beans are excellent sources of nutrients that help support a healthy METABOLISM. Foods that provide little nutrition value like fast food, will increase when eating, but during the digestion process release chemicals and compounds that ultimately do more damage then good.
2. Can eating before bed effect my metabolism in a positive or negative way?
Answer: The rule of thumb with eating before sleeping is really a personal thing, but from a physiology stand point try not to consume food within 2 hours of resting, as a majority of the food consumed will be directly stored as fat by the body.

Answer: Yes, as people age the metabolism is slowing down after peaking sometime in our twenties, BUT with a balanced healthy diet with several feedings throughout the day and diverse physical activity a person can maintain and/or improve their Metabolism over the course of a lifetime.
