Turmeric promotes weight loss - this was once again proved by doctors who conducted a study of the effect of turmeric on the condition of people with fatty liver, writes Express. A decrease in waist circumference and a decrease in body mass index were noted in patients who received 70 milligrams of curcumin every day.
Turmeric by itself does not have the ability to burn fat cells, but it can inhibit their growth due to the polyphenol curcumin, which is contained in this spice. Turmeric reduces the formation of visceral (deep) fat, which is usually deposited at the waist.
If you regularly add it to food, it will benefit the metabolic processes in the body, but in itself is not a universal remedy for losing weight, weight loss can only be achieved by complex measures.
