Made this today for breakfast...and it was too good to not take a bite into first. I sprinkled some cayenne pepper on this bad boy...I love eating cayenne pepper with pretty much everything!
According to a study conducted by Purdue University, the findings of their study, published in the journal Physiology & Behavior, suggest that "consuming just half a teaspoon of cayenne pepper along with a meal can help suppress appetite and burn calories."
Cayenne pepper has several great health benefits but I love it because it is a great digestive aid and helps to detox the body of toxins. Cayenne stimulates the digestive tract, increasing the flow of enzyme production and gastric juices, helping to metabolize food. So in a nutshell, it helps what you put in your body, come out. For a great detox/cleanse try combining lemon juice, honey, cayenne pepper in hot water in the morning and be prepared to sweat.
