Quick, let's get some Indian food! Several studies have been done on hot peppers. Two done in particular by UCLA and Laval University in Quebec show that capsaicin has proven to burn fat and calories. Capsaicin is what puts the kick in a hot pepper and it can put a little booster on your metabolism as well.
A few reasons why hot peppers are good for you...
- reduces appetite
- strengthen immunities
- speeds up your heart rate
- increases energy
- they help break down carbs
- improves stamina
- decrease blood cholesterol
Try some hot peppers in different ways and see if you can find one that's right for you. Degree's of heat are different on every pepper - also called a Scoville scale. So every "hot" pepper is not super hot. There are milder versions if spicy isn't your thing.
