A spice for weight loss?

Turmeric, a spice popular in curries and other Middle Eastern dishes, may help you lose weight, suggest scientists from Tufts University. The researchers observed that mice fed a high fat diet that included curcumin, a major component of turmeric, gained less weight than the critters who ate fatty food without curcumin. The experts think the spice works by suppressing the growth of blood vessels that support fat tissue. For delicious recipes with turmeric, search for the spice at www.spryliving.com.
