Obesity is a growing concern in our modern society, with more and more people struggling to maintain a healthy weight. While there are various diets and weight loss programs out there, some can be quite challenging to stick to in the long run. However, there is one simple spice that could help you lose weight and keep it off. Let's discover the "killer of obesity" - 1 teaspoon per day of this spice, and you can lose up to 15 kg in just three months!
A recent study, conducted by group of researchers at the University of Medical Sciences in Iran, randomly split 88 overweight or obese women into 2 groups. For 3 months, both groups received nutrition counseling and decreased their daily intake of calories by 500. But one group was also eating 3 grams (a little less than 1 teaspoon) of cumin powder daily, swirled into 5 ounces of yogurt (the same amount of yogurt, minus the cumin, was also prescribed to the control group).
At the end of the 3-month trial, members in the cumin group had lost 3 more pounds than those in the non-cumin group for a total of 13 pounds’ weight loss. More impressively, the cumin group members decreased body fat percentage by 14.64%—almost triple the 4.91% loss posted by the control group—apparently due to the addition of the fat-burning spice. Well, the cumin group had some other improvements as well. They had decreased levels of harmful blood fats, like triglycerides. The participants in the cumin group had an average of nearly 10 points off their bad (LDL) cholesterol reading. The control group had only 5 points in that category.
And the best thing about it is that this spice also improves their health by reducing the risk of heart disease and obesity. The medical experts also claim that this spice can boost the metabolism as well, because it contains high amounts of phytosterols, which can inhibit the absorption of cholesterol in the human body. The researchers also claim that cumin quickens digestion of food. So, just add some cumin in your favorite yogurt, oatmeal, etc. and you will notice that your weight will be gone.
