How do I know if my metabolism is running slow? What are ways I can really kick start

[Cicero]

What are ways I can really kick start my metabolism (by supplements, but supplements I can get at any grocery store)?

Would it be dangerous to take a supplement that increases metabolism if I have malnutrition?

I dont know other than gaining weight, that shows signs of low metabolism. I do know, that you have to drink a lot of water. Water is what keeps up your metabolism.

u dont need supplements, if u need supplements to kick start anything then ur doing something wrong. best to do it the natural way. drink green tea, eat like 6 small meals a day, and every morning and night do like 30 mins of cardio.

I agree with the above. In the long run, supplements can do more harm than good. Start the morning with a short, intense cardio session, drink lots of water, eat small but protein rich meals, drink caffeinated drinks if necessary, and most of all, workout! Building muscle will significantly increase your metabolism.
