4. It Burns Fat
Turmeric can also help to encourage fat burning. It does this at least partly by reducing the production of enzymes (chemical catalysts) that the body uses in order to create fat cells. In other words, it prevents the body from being able to create new fat stores – which as you can imagine will lead to weight loss!
Turmeric may also increase insulin sensitivity. This means that it will improve the body’s ability to use energy that is in its system. This has also been shown to help increase weight loss, by reducing the amount of ‘leftover’ calories that the body will turn into fat.
