Want to increase fat burning, add these 5 spices to your meals

Many modern studies have revealed the mechanism of action of some spices on the body. They increase body heat production, inhibit fat cell formation, regulate blood sugar and control hunger.

If used properly in daily meals, the following spices not only make dishes more delicious but also promote fat burning.

Turmeric

Turmeric is rich in curcumin, which can affect AMPK, an important enzyme in the process of regulating cellular energy. AMPK stimulates fat burning and inhibits the formation of new fat cells. Therefore, curcumin has the effect of reducing BMI, controlling weight, reducing waist fat, detoxifying bile and supporting digestion.

Cinnamon, ginger and turmeric are all spices that have many health benefits.

Chili pepper

Chili peppers are rich in capsaicin, which can increase body temperature, thereby accelerating the rate of calorie burning and reducing fat storage. In addition, capsaicin also reduces bad cholesterol, positively affecting cardiovascular health, according to the health website Verywell Health (USA).

Cinnamon

The compound cinnamaldehyde in cinnamon has the effect of regulating blood sugar and reducing appetite, thereby reducing the risk of fat storage. Research in the journal Phytotherapy Research shows that daily cinnamon supplementation for at least 12 weeks reduces body fat, waist circumference, BMI and weight.

Ginger

The main active ingredient that gives ginger its spicy taste and characteristic smell is gingerol. Of these, 6-gingerol is the most important compound. This substance has the ability to stimulate thermogenesis, while improving satiety and reducing fat absorption.

Some research evidence also shows that regular use of ginger, from drinking ginger water to adding it to food, helps reduce weight and waist-to-hip ratio in overweight people.

Dill

Dill is a familiar spice in many cuisines . Research from Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences (Iran) found that when applying a diet for 3 months, people who used 3 grams of dill powder per day, about 1 teaspoon, had a fat burning rate nearly 3 times higher. This is because the nutrients in dill have the effect of stimulating metabolism, improving digestion and reducing fat accumulation, according to Verywell Health .
