Recent Research On A Superfood That Burns Fat Quickly
Scientists from the University of Chichester, United Kingdom, conducted a research on body fat reduction amongst women who walk briskly for 30 minutes everyday. Scientists administered 600 mg of New Zealand Blackcurrant extract (CurraNZ) to these women for 7 consecutive days. They found that this supplement helped these women burn body fat by 25%. Women that showed positive correlation and gave good results, were found to have burned 66% more fat than those who did not.
Moreover, they also observed that those who had body fat accumulated in their legs, found it easier to lose it compared to those who had more fat stored in their arms. Researchers believe this may be due to Adipocytes, fat cells in the adipose tissues, and their ability to liberate stored fat from themselves easily in the legs rather than arms.
Surprisingly, the research also showed signs suggesting after the same level of activity with this supplement, women burned almost twice the amount of fat as compared to men.
