Two-fer Dieting: a Hot Way to Lose Weight… and Breathe Easier
If you’re like me, you multitask because there’s never enough time in the day. That’s why I like using a diet for more than just weight loss.
I call it “Two-fer Dieting.”
I first tried it years ago. You see, I was researching a medical problem when I discovered intriguing information about how foods may help certain medical conditions.
I was skeptical at first. But I eventually tried some of these foods on myself or a family member with exciting results.
We seemed to have the most success with using certain foods to reduce my mother’s blood pressure. In just 7 weeks, it dropped to 132/68 from 168/88. Without medication.
Can I absolutely prove it was the foods that lowered her blood pressure?
No.
But we tried it twice–under different conditions–and it worked both times.
I’d like to share with you–for educational purposes only–some of the other information I discovered.
So here’s a “hot” tip that may hel carb blocker p you or a loved one to lose weight… and breathe a little easier.
Add chile peppers to your diet.
Yep, it’s that easy.
A study in the British Journal of Nutrition showed that hot peppers boost your metabolism temporarily. And that causes you to burn extra calories… at least for a while.
There are many kinds of chile peppers. Jalapenos, serranos, and habaneros are just a few. But usually, the smaller the pepper, the hotter.
A substance called capsaicin makes the peppers hot.
But chile peppers may do more than just boost your metabolism. And that’s where “Two-fer Dieting” comes into play.
You see, these hot peppers may also help with emphysema, chronic bronchitis, maybe even asthma. But you should check with your doctor to be sure it’s okay for you to try them.
Supposedly, garlic, Tabasco sauce and other hot foods work, too. But we used chile peppers–specifically, jalapenos.
I tried this with my mother.
