How Cayenne Enhances Weight Loss Effectively

By Kyle J. Norton, Master of Nutrition

The prevalence of obesity is widespread in the Western world. In the US, approximately 68% of the population is either overweight or obese.

The findings of weight loss from the botanic plant with little or no side effects have gone under extensive research.

Cayenne, the kitchen spice may have a profound effect in enhanced weight loss, some researchers suggested.

Obesity is a medical condition of excess body fat has accumulated over time, while overweight is a condition of excess body weight relative to the height.

According to the Body Mass Index(BMI), a BMI between 25 to 29.9 is considered overweight, while a BMI of over 30 is an indication of obesity.


Weight loss is an intentional reduction of the total body mass through the context of diet, exercise, and medicine such as FDA-approved prescription medications, orlistat (Xenical, Alli), lorcaserin (Belviq), phentermine-topiramate (Qsymia), naltrexone-bupropion (Contrave), and liraglutide (Saxenda).

Although approved medicine may be effective if the person who takes the drug also follow a reduced-calorie, low-fat diet, however, it may induce side effects of weakness, dark urine, clay-colored stools, itching, loss of appetite, or jaundice (liver toxicity). 

In severe cases, intake of the drug may cause severe lower back pain, blood in your urine, drowsiness, confusion, mood changes, increased thirst; swelling,...... and short of breath.

If you are taking the weight to lose approved pills, please make sure that you discuss the side effect with your doctor in advance.

Cayenne is also known as Cayenne Pepper, a red, hot chili pepper, belongings to Capsicum annuum, the family Solanaceae, native to sub-tropical and tropical regions.

The herb has been used in traditional medicine to increase metabolism, enhance circulatory system and stomach and the intestinal tract, adjust blood pressure, lower LDL cholesterol and triglycerides, treat frostbite, muscles, arthritis, rheumatism, low back pain, strains, sprains, bruises, and neuralgia, etc.

The Phyto Ingredients
The chemical constituents of Cayenne include capsaicin, capsacutin oil, solaine, xanthenes, oleic acid,..... and palmitic acid.

Capsaicinoids are major bioactive chemical compounds found in cayenne, in the study to review its effectiveness in weight management, the Manchester Metropolitan University conducted a selection of 20 trials which satisfied the criteria and guideline were selected involving 563 participants.

Most trials were generally of high quality with a low risk of bias, however, trial duration, dosage and sized varied.

Observation and differentiation of these studies suggested that application of capsaicinoids induce weight loss and weight management by(1)
* Increased energy expenditure by approximately 50 kcal/day, these results would produce clinically significant levels of weight loss in 1-2 years.

* Reduced abdominal adipose tissue levels and reduced appetite and energy intake, and

* Increased lipid oxidation to induce weight loss. Decrements in fatty acid oxidation were associated with obesity.

Dr. Whiting S, the lead scientists at the final report of the study said, "The mechanism of action is not presently fully understood, although it is well accepted much of the effects are caused by stimulation of the TRPV1 receptor (which plays an essential role to induce weight loss through direct impact on enhancing intracellular Ca2+ levels in initiated fat lipid oxidation)".

Further analysis of capsaicinoids weight loss in search of related studies medical data that found 74 clinical trials identified, with only 10 selected, 8 of which provided results suitable to be combined in analysis (191 participants) and 19 effect sizes extracted and analysed using MIX meta-analysis software conducted by the study led by the School of Healthcare Science, suggested that capsaicinoid ingestion prior to a meal reduced ad libitum energy intake by 309.9kJ (74.0kcal) during the meal(2).

The study also found that a minimum dose of  2mg of capsaicinoids is needed to contribute to weight management through reductions in energy intake(2).

These results were attributed to capsaicinoids efficacy in altered carbohydrate-rich foods that have a significant impact in reduced fat oxidation in the induction of weight gain(2)

Dr. said, "daily consumption of capsaicinoids may contribute to weight management through reductions in energy intake. Subsequently, there may be potential for capsaicinoids to be used as long-term, natural weight-loss aids".

Intake of herbal Cayenne or its supplements should only be prescribed by herbalist as acute ingestion of a large number of chili peppers (the rich source of capsaicin) was found to induce produced
hypertension in some patients(3).
