The bright red pepper is not only eye-catching in color, but also unforgettable in pungent taste. Pepper is an indispensable ingredient in many dishes, which can not only increase the color and flavor of the food, but also help to lose weight. Foreign studies have found that the ingredients in pepper can send a signal to the body to let us know that we are full and avoid overeating, thus helping to prevent obesity.

Studies have found that capsaicin in peppers can avoid excessive consumption, thus helping to control weight. Capsaicin helps to lose weight, is high in fat and easy to overeat.

According to the Daily Mail, a study conducted by the University of Adelaide, Australia, pointed out that capsaicin in peppers helps to lose weight, and a high-fat diet will affect the normal operation of gastric nerves, leading people to unconsciously eat too much food, which will lead to weight gain. This study has been published in PLOS No.1 magazine.

Studies have found that pepper can activate a receptor "TRPV 1 protein" in the stomach, make the stomach swell and release the information of satiety, so that people can find that they are full, thus reducing their food intake and helping to prevent weight gain. Without this receiver, our satiety will be delayed and we will eat more unconsciously.

In addition, this study also found that high-fat diet will interfere with the operation of "TRPV 1 protein", making it difficult for us to feel full and continue to eat, which may easily lead to obesity.
