Spices turn up the heat!!

[Wizard]

You may know it but I read that spices(like mustard,pepper,paprika etc.) have a good thermogenic effect in your body.The truth is that I notice a raise in my body's temperature when I eat something spiced up.A simple way to turn your heat up!..

[Spiderman]

Thats right they do. Eating some hot sauce with meals or something to that affect helps to slightly increase your metabolic rate. :cool:

[Frankster]

Are spices bad for you in any way? i always wondered this. Not salt, the others, like the herbs...

[Joe Black]

I thought garlic was a good spice for thermogenic effects..

May be wrong..

[Anthony]

Frankster, not to my knowledge.

[Frankster]

Good then, cause i like spices :) its a good way to make the same old yuky bbuilding food taste different and sometimes even good hehe

[Wizard]

Hmm.. chicken with mustard :)
But,hell.. what to add to make tuna smelling better??? :P

[Frankster]

Mustard

[Big Worm]

I heard that curry is especially good at raising your metabolism because it contains an igredient called Cardamom. this is just what i've read.

[Frankster]

Cool, thanks ya big worm :), oh and welcome aboard!

[Wizard]

By the way,curry is the best thing you can put in your chicken!

[Ronan]

I spice all my food when dieting even eggs

I use hot chilli powder and cayenne pepper which is in some thermogenic formulas

Spices are good for you, they help clear out toxins in your body

garlic isnt a spice but is a powerful anti-oxidant and is good for purifying your blood

[Budiak]

Which totally justifies my cayenne pepper on EVERYTHING. Steak, chicken, potatoes, all with that beautiful red dust. That and Tabasco sauce...hells yeah..

[Frankster]

Ok, Im going to have an extra spicy steak... mmm steak

[Wizard]

I like the way Frankster's location smells :p

[Frankster]

Pfff, at least it doesnt smell like grease
