‘New diet pill burns dozens of calories’

The new diet pill Capsiplex, that is already eagerly used by stars like Jennifer Lopez and Britney Spears, is the new diet promise of 2010. The pill is made of Spanish peppers and is supposed to melt off the calories.

The taking of one Capsiplex pill is supposed to burn of the same amount of calories as would 80 minutes of walking or 25 minutes of jogging. This is claimed by researchers at the University of Oklahoma.

That Spanish peppers have the ability to increase the metabolism has been known for longer, but that has never been translated into an effective way of losing weight. The sting of the peppers irritate the digestion tract, so large amounts couldn’t be safely consumed. But by giving the pills a special protection layer this problem has now been resolved according to the producers of the pill.

There is no scientific proof yet that the pill actually works. Neither has anything been published about the health risks or other side effects of this pill. However the pills are being massively recommended by personal trainers in the USA and the pill is being launched this month in Great Britain.

Mushroom extract against cancer

An extract from the wild mushroom Cordyceps sinensis shows promising results in the battle against multiple kinds of cancer.

A low dosage of the extract makes cells grow less in an uncontrolled manner and a high dosage has influences on the clotting of cancer cells. A British research team at the University of Nottingham have discovered this.

The team published this remarkable find in an international scientific journal. The mushroom grows on pods of moths in the heights of Tibet. The wild mushroom has been known in China for ages for its medicinal properties. In 1950 the first scientific articles were published about its possible effects on cancer.

The mushroom disappeared from view, because it was very hard to get material to conduct research on. The British research team have found a way to make an artificial extract of the active substance called cordycepin.

The researchers have conducted test with just cordycepin and cordycepin in combination with other anti cancer medications. The researchers think that it can serve as a raw material for a whole new generation of anti cancer medicines.

The cordyceps sinensis grows in groups and its collected in spring. Traders are paying high prices for the mushroom, that is getting to be rare.

Hormone makes people eat too much

The higher the quantity of the hormone ghrelin in your blood, the more hungry you feel. But now it has also been shown that you also feel better by it when you eat. Also when you have actually eaten enough already.

Researchers at the UT Southwestern Medical Center conducted research into this hunger hormone with mice. When the mice were given ghrelin together with a fatty meal, the mice liked to stay in the space where they had found that food. Even when the food was finished. The hunger hormone ghrelin made them associate the food with good feelings.

Mice who were not given the hormone together with their food, went to other spaces with food without problem. They didn’t have to association between good feelings and the food.

The mice who got ghrelin also tried to get extra food for more time. According to the researchers this process can explain why some people still want a calorie rich dessert even though they are already full from the main course.
