hot news of the week……loses weight

 It’s no secret that eating hot foods such as curries and Mexican chillies makes  us feel warm. Really hot versions can even make us sweat and go red in the face.

This is because capsaicin, the chemical that gives chillies and chilli-based  spices such as cayenne and paprika their characteristic pungency, stimulates a  natural process whereby some of the food we eat at each meal is converted  immediately to heat.

Called diet-induced thermogenesis, this process is good news for dieters  because it means we burn up calories automatically rather than storing them.

so lets burn down some calories….!!!!!!!!!!!
