Does anyone else disagree with this MSN article?

Posted by admin on Oct 8, 2009

This is on MSN and is under a link titles " Food that burns fat" I have a hard time believing this portion of the article… What does anyone else think?

Spicy Foods

Like it hot? Good news: Eating spicy foods can help you burn more fat. Hot foods make you sweat and raise your heart rate, which temporarily increases your metabolism. So grab some cayenne, your favorite bottle of hot sauce, hot chilies or red pepper flakes and give your food–and your metabolism–a kick. My personal fave hot sauce is Frank’s Red Hot Extra Hot.

Erm.. *scratches chin*.. dunno. I’ve been told eating spicy foods has the exact opposite effect of burning fat. A food that "raises your heart rate" doesn’t sound altogether healthy either. Maybe this advertisement is really an advertisement, for Frank’s Red Hot Extra Hot.

I agree with it to a degree. Spicy foods don’t necessarily burn fat but they speed up the metabolic rate (due to the spiciness) and therefore helps to digest food quicker which is good for your body processing fat. In a sense it has some truth to it!

Cayenne increases your blood circulation and it can save your life if you have heart related chest pains.

"I have had almost a hundred patients actually save their lives by using a tablespoonful of cayenne pepper in a glass of warm water, or 10 dropperfuls of the tincture, and drinking it down fast. In every case, it brought the person right out of it with minimal damage, some with no damage at all. "- Dr. Richard Schulze
