I'm a massive spice fan. So with that in mind I have put together some of the spices that are up there with the powerful:

​

Black Pepper

​

Sounds simple enough but this spice can offer up to 8% increase in your metabolic rate and will also help to reduce symptoms of constipation and gas from your meals. This one is ultra easy to add to any meal, so start making the most out of it.

 

Turmeric

​

A very often forgotten spice, this one will help to lower your blood sugar so you don't get strong food cravings and help to reduce body fat.

 

This spice can actually help to block fat gain so it's one that you definitely want to be making good use of.

​

Cinnamon

​

A sweet spice that many people enjoy, this one helps to control your blood sugar levels and will also give your immune system a strong boost.

It's going to promote a healthy digestive system as well, ensuring that you're able to remove all the toxins from the body on a regular basis.

​

If these toxins build up, they can influence your metabolic rate and how well your body is able to rid itself of its body fat.

 

You just have to make sure you’re using the right kind of cinnamon (good quality).

​

Ginger

​

This spice is often used to combat nausea, but it too has metabolic boosting powers. It works great in many recipes and will add an oriental flare to the dish.

​

Garlic

​

One of the most commonly used spices, this one will help to detoxify the body so that you're burning off fat as effectively as possible. This spice also helps to loosen up fat to get it ready for fat burning.

Cayenne Pepper

​

This spice has reportedly given some individuals up to a 25% boost to their metabolism so if there's one that you definitely want to be making good use of, this is it.

​

Adding this to a meal can increase the number of calories you burn over the next few hours, ensuring fat loss progresses along maximally.

 

Chilli Powder

​

Finally, last but not least we have chilli powder. This one acts very similar to cayenne pepper in the body due to its capsaicin content and will provide you with a nice metabolic boost so you burn more calories all day long.

​

As far as fat loss goes, it can't be beat.

​

Thats why I always recommend you to use herbs and spices in your food, not just to enhance flavours but to give you the additional benefits.
