Post ginger and cayenne

I read in a Prevention magazine that taking ginger and/or cayenne has the same effect on your body (thermogenesis) as diet pills . Anyone else try?? thanks Elaine

Yes, I've used both ginger and cayenne for quite some time now. Although I have used cayenne for weight loss/thermogenic effect, I have only used ginger as an aid to increasing protein absorption, so I can't really comment on it's use as a thermogenic.


However, as for cayenne, if you can tolerate it, it is a pretty decent thermogenic. When taken in proper doses (follow the label foremost), it causes an increase in sweating. Whether or not this actually translates to greater fat loss is questionable. I will say this for cayenne, I believe that it helped me achieve lower fat levels when combined with cardiovascular exercise.

You may just have to judge for yourself.
