While this aromatic spice is widely known for helping soothe an upset stomach, it may also encourage weight loss. “Ginger is an antioxidant powerhouse and is loaded with capsaicin, the same compound that puts the ‘hot’ in hot peppers,” says Los Angeles–based registered dietitian and LaurenConrad.com nutrition expert Shira Lenchewski. “Studies have found that capsaicin may temporarily speed up the metabolism, resulting in increased calorie burn.” One study published in the journal Metabolism found that ginger “enhances the thermic effect of food and promotes feelings of satiety.” This spice can be added to tea, salad dressings (like a ginger-orange dressing), and sauces (think a peanut-ginger sauce on top of a stir-fry dish). – Redbook.com
