Burn More Bodyfat with Spices
It’s the spice of life.
Food that is. Or opinions. I guess there is a lot of things that are officially “the spice of life.”
I think spices are the spice of life.
I have a new-found love of spices since hanging around a killer healthy-food chef for the past week.
Wow oh wow… I had no idea.
And hey — I’m helping her put her recipes into to a book that will be out soon.
I’ll send you all a video of this woman doing her thing too in a week or so… prepare to be blown away.
Back to spices:
Not only can spices save an otherwise boring healthy meal…. turns to find out spices can help you burn more bodyfat.
The January 2006 issue of The Journal of Physiology and Behavior cited numerous studies on several spices that increased thermogenesis in the body.
Thermogenesis is simply heat — and since a calorie is a unit of heat, guess what?
More thermogenesis = more calories burned
=
Less bodyfat.
Pretty cool stuff this thermogenesis.
In fact thermogenesis is the foundation of my upcoming handbook “The Radical Fatloss Blueprint.” Out in late February.
The book comes out in late February… and it is… well, radical.
Up to 21 pounds in 21 days.
But you can only do it for 21 days. Fair deal, right?
For now, here’s the spices that work the best to help you burn bodyfat:
1. Capsaicin, the compound gives red chili pepper its heat, increased energy via heat expenditure by up to 23% after ingesting it at breakfast.
2. Black Pepper increases body heat (thermogenesis) by bonding to TRPV1 receptors in the brain.
3. Turmeric has both anti-cancer and pro-thermogenic support. Best of two worlds if you ask me.
Combine these three spices: Red chili pepper, black pepper and turmeric, and use them liberally (as you can handle them) on your lunch and dinner meals.
Just be careful not to overdo the spices, otherwise you’ll end up with more heartburn than fatburn.
How Will Proper Nutrition Help Me Lose Weight?
If you’ve tried diet after diet and you’re still hollering, “Please! Help me lose weight!” It’s because
diets don’t work (obviously). Sure, they may help you drop a few pounds in the beginning, but the results are often short
lived. Most diets require you to restrict your caloric intake to the point where your body is literally starving.
Not getting enough calories slows your metabolism down, causes the loss of lean muscle tissue, deprives you of the fuel you
need to perform, and causes your body to hold on to stored fat for energy. In addition, diets are miserable, depressing, frustrating and not sustainable over the long term. Seriously, how long do you think you can survive off of grapefruits and cabbage?
Take it from a gal who has tried almost every diet on the market. Proper nutrition will give you better weight loss results than simply going on a diet. Here are three good reasons why:
Healthy Foods Are Naturally Low in Calories
Unlike processed junk, healthy foods like vegetables, fruits, legumes, beans naturally raised meats, organic poultry, raw nuts, seeds and organic eggs are naturally low in calories. When you eat reasonable portions of these foods, you automatically reduce your caloric intake and lose weight without feeling hungry, deprived or bitter.
There is so much nonsense in processed foods. When you eat them, your body doesn’t have a clue what to do with the calories; so they just get stored as fat. When you eat nutritious foods instead of processed junk, your body actually benefits from the calories so they are less likely to get stored as blubber.
Proper Nutrition Helps Fuel Your Body
All nutritious (and I mean truly nutritious) eating plans will allow plenty of fresh vegetables, fruits and beans in the diet. These foods provide the healthy carbohydrates you need to fuel your body and keep your metabolism performing properly.
If you come across a diet that tells you not to eat healthy carbohydrates, run away from it as fast as you can. Your body absolutely has to have healthy carbohydrates (healthy being the operative word) to survive.
Eating Healthy to Burn Fat
Here’s some great news. Healthy diets that include protein can help you build lean muscle tissue, which can kick your metabolism into high gear. This is definitely a plus if you want to send that double chin packing.
When you eat protein rich foods, your body releases a hormone that helps you burn fat. Protein also helps make meals more satiating so you eat less (bring on the protein, baby). Some nutritious protein sources include naturally raised lean meats, organic poultry, beans, raw nuts and whole organic eggs.
Why put yourself through the drama of dieting just to be disappointed with the end results? Healthy eating is a much better option for dropping unwanted pounds. Remember though, nutritious eating is just one part of the weight loss puzzle. If you want to keep those results coming, get plenty of exercise and drink lots of water.

Fun Exercises That Help You Drop the Pounds Fast
Submitted By: Janine Michaels
When you are on a diet, you?re often told that you need to do a certain amount of exercise in order to speed up the weight loss process. While some people don?t mind exercising, others aren?t that fond of it. Many online diet programs include a detailed exercise program that involves weight lifting, and strenuous movements designed to burn off fat. But, this isn?t the only way to get fit.
Fortunately, there are some fun ways to exercise at home that can make you forget that you?re doing something you thought you didn?t like. Actually, you can make up your own fit and fun exercise program. You can do these exercises by purchasing a video gaming system that is packed with all sorts of fun activities, or you can do them the old-fashioned way. It really doesn?t matter as long as you get moving.
Bike Riding
If you learned how to ride a bike as a young person, now is the perfect time to grab a bike and start two-wheeling down the road again. Today?s bicycles are built for all age groups and comfort levels, so you should be able to find one that suits your personal style. Keeping your balance is the most challenging thing about bike riding, but rusty riders can quickly regain their stride. Bicycling involves lots of leg movement.
Bowling
Bowling is one of those fun sports that people of all ages can enjoy. Trying to knock down several pins set up at a distance, while keeping your aim straight, is very challenging. Which means you?ll want to try it over and over again to see if you can improve your score. Bowling involves lots of walking, squatting and arm movement.
Dancing
Dancing is one of the most entertaining ways you can get a lot of exercise. It?s simple to do and you don?t have to be really great at it to get the benefits. Whether you can keep a beat with the best of them, or have two left feet, you can put on some great music and sway your body back and forth while moving your feet.
Some popular ideas for dance exercise include: ball room dancing, belly dancing, country swing dancing and hip hop dancing.
Hula Hoop
Maybe you are old enough to remember having a hoola hoop as a child. If you are, then you also remember how much fun you had swirling that colorful plastic ring around and around your waist. Today?s hula hoop has been updated specifically for exercising.
You can easily find a sports hula hoop that is designed for adult fitness workouts. These are often heavier than the kind children play with. Of course, you?ll have to learn to keep it up on your body all over again, but it?s a lot of fun and can really work out your waist, hips and thighs.
Mini Trampoline
Many people buy a mini trampoline for their children or grandchildren. But, hey, wait a minute!
What about you?
You?re never too old to enjoy the fun of jumping up and down and all around on a trampoline. As long as the trampoline can support your weight, you can use it to get in some quick exercise. It?s also a bona fide stress reliever. Imagine coming home after a stressed-filled day, taking your shoes off and jumping your cares away. Great workout for your whole body.
