Many people can't imagine starting their day without a cup of coffee. Drinking this beverage, in moderation of course, can bring many benefits.

Moreover, combining coffee with other ingredients easily found in our kitchen can yield even more positive results. One particular addition should especially interest those looking to speed up their metabolism.

Weight loss coffee? Add a pinch of this spice

Often, issues with metabolism are a significant obstacle to losing excess pounds. You can help your body with natural remedies. It turns out that adding one spice to coffee can improve intestinal function, support our digestive system, and thus speed up weight loss. What's the secret?

Dr. Keith Singletary mentioned research from 2022 that confirmed the "magical" properties of this spice, known as cardamom. The specific action of this spice has been known for centuries. Cardamom is also said to help with nausea and heartburn and has diuretic properties.

How to make "weight loss coffee"?

Adding just a pinch of cardamom to your coffee can support your metabolism. But the drink can also be prepared differently. Before mixing powdered cardamom with ground coffee, you can put whole cardamom seeds into the cup, then pour in the coffee and let it brew.

What should you know about the flavor profile of cardamom? This spice, originating from India, is a delicate blend of sweet and spicy notes. Many describe the taste as warm and aromatic. Cardamom is suitable not only for coffee but also for many teas.
