Eating certain foods can elevate the basal metabolic rate, and thus promote weight loss.

Question

Eating certain foods can elevate the basal metabolic rate, and thus promote weight loss.​

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The statement asks about whether eating certain foods can elevate the basal metabolic rate (BMR) and thereby promote weight loss.
Option 1: False. This is the accurate choice because the basal metabolic rate is the energy expended at rest to maintain essential bodily functions. While the thermic effect of food (TEF) does increase energy expenditure briefly after eating, this is not the same as raising BMR itself, and the increase is typically modest. Thus, eating certain foods does not meaningfully elevate BMR in a way that directly drives sustained weight loss as the statement implies.
Option 2: True. This would be incorrect because, although some foods can cause a temporary bump in total energy expenditure due to TEF or stimulation (e.g., protein has a higher TEF, caffeine-containing items may have a short-lived effect), these effects do not equate to a lasting increase in BMR. The basal rate remains relatively stable and not appreciably raised by foods over the long term, so relying on this to promote weight loss is misleading. The overall impact on weight loss from TEF or thermogenic foods is modest at best and not a reliable primary driver of weight loss.
