Studies have shown that Grains of paradise (a herb from the ginger family) can help fire up brown adipose tissue13(BAT). BAT keeps your body warm by burning calories – it’s basically made for thermogenesis. When activated, it burns through fat like nobody’s business. Studies have also shown that BAT activation can also help regulate blood sugar levels. This means your energy levels will remain more stable throughout the day, so you’re less likely to experience food cravings.
