Brown fat, which is beneficial to the body, is known to promote weight loss because it burns calories. [사진=게티이미지뱅크]There are two types of fat surrounding our body. Good fats and bad fats, usually bad fats, are white fats. White fat stores the remaining calories in the form of triglycerides, and excessive accumulation causes obesity. On the other hand, good fat is brown fat that helps maintain body temperature by generating heat through energy consumption.
Brown fat, which is beneficial to the body, is known to promote weight loss because it burns calories. Eating certain foods to stimulate brown fat can also help. Foods that stimulate brown fat for weight loss were introduced in ‘Eat This, Not That’, an American health information media.
1. Capsaicin (pepper)
Studies have shown that the active compound in hot peppers, capsaicin, can increase fat burning and energy expenditure and help burn belly fat. Capsaicin seems to help stimulate brown fat, which stimulates fat burning.
2. Green Tea
Caffeine and the powerful catechin epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) in green tea have been found to help burn more fat and calories. According to some studies, EGCG and caffeine work synergistically to trigger fat burning. While some studies have shown that green tea appears to increase brown fat, some experts say more research is needed to confirm this. Nevertheless, the antioxidants in green tea may help prevent oxidative damage, reduce inflammation, and prevent disease.
3. Curcumin (Turmeric)
Curcumin, a compound found in turmeric, a spice made by grinding dried turmeric root, appears to help fight obesity. Studies have shown that curcumin can help reduce body weight and body fat, as well as reduce waist and hip circumference. There are also studies showing that curcumin increases calorie loss, thermogenesis, and brown fat. It should be noted, however, that the study used very high doses of curcumin. Curcumin is poorly absorbed due to its low bioavailability. Therefore, when taking a supplement, choose one with high bioavailability. Studies have shown that eating with black pepper can increase the bioavailability of turmeric.
4. Menthol (Peppermint, Spearmint)
Long-term consumption of menthol has been shown to increase brown fat, increase calorie loss, prevent weight gain from a high-fat diet, and even reverse insulin sensitivity. These findings help prevent obesity and obesity-related diseases.
5. Fish-derived omega-3 fatty acids
Studies have shown that the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA can help with weight loss. Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fatty fish like salmon, can also be taken in supplements. According to the results of a study targeting rats, it was found that fish oil supplementation increased protein levels in brown adipose tissue between the shoulder blades, and eating fatty fish increased brown adipose tissue while reducing visceral fat.
