Weight Loss Strategies #1: Heat Up, Slim Down

Good news, Spice fans:

Adding heat to your meal can boost your calorie burn. Capsaicin, the chemical that gives peppers like jalapenos, habaneros, and poblanos their heat, can make your body increase its calorie burn for hours after you eat them, according to a UCLA study. The peppers,improve your body's ability to clear insulin from your bloodstream, which means you might store less of what you eat as fat. So garnish chicken or fish with salsa, and look for other opportunities to add a little spice to your life!

I am back!

Well, I'm finally back after a hiatus. I hope to be posting up some more exciting things later on. I also will be adding another blog which will deal be called Moments with the Master. As many of you may remember that's the title of a book in process that I 'm working on. At the request of some of my students, I'll be doing a number of the talks that I normally give at the end of my classes. I look forward to talking with many of you. In His Grace, Mark
