'Chilli' chocolates to help burn calories
It sounds just too good to be true - cakes and
chocolate bars that help you burn off calories, courtesy a tasteless extract
from chilli peppers.
This "miracle" extract, known as dihydrocapsiate (DHC), speeds up the body's
metabolism, helping it use up more calories. It is already sold in the form of
diet supplement pills in the US and Japan, but it could be about to be used as a
food additive in Britain, the Daily Mail reports.
The ingredient is one of several chemical compounds known as capsinoids found
in a particular variety of chilli.
Now a Japanese food firm Ajinomoto has submitted plans to the Food Standards
Agency watchdog with the aim of adding it to chocolate bars, desserts and ready
meals targeted towards slimmers.
It is now up to the European Commission to decide whether it can be sold. If
approved, products with DHC could appear on shelves very soon.
According to the manufacturer, a person weighing around 95 kg consuming the
recommended portions of foods containing DHC would probably burn off only 50
extra calories a day - the equivalent of a digestive biscuit.
Ajinomoto plans to make the ingredient synthetically as only very small
amounts can be derived from chilli peppers.
