Yes! You read that right. A spice can help you lose 3 times as much body fat without having to spend hours at the gym. A recent research has shown that cumin has a potent ability to kick-start weight loss and decrease body fat.
Researchers at Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences, 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 daily provided with 3 grams of cumin powder mixed into yogurt while the other group was given the same amount of yogurt without cumin. At the end of the trial period, it was observed that 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.
This role of cumin in weight loss is attributed to the speculation that cumin, like other hot spices, temporarily increases metabolic rate in our body. So if you're feeling yourself getting obese then why not try it yourself.
