Bel Marra Health, well known for offering high-quality, specially formulated vitamins and nutritional supplements, is reporting on a new study that says the aromatherapy benefits of cooking are linked to lowered obesity.
In France the use of aromatherapy in cooking has received so much attention that people in the United States are now trying it. In fact, many have turned to cooking with essential oils in an effort to fight obesity. However as Bel Marra Health reports in its article
(http://www.belmarrahealth.com/weight-management/cooking-aromatherapy-an-interesting-new-trend/) the one key obesity benefit to cooking aromatherapy, is that essential oils don’t contain fat like traditional cooking oils do. This in itself can help reduce obesity.
The idea is that you can use tiny amounts of essential oils in the cooking process instead of fatty oils. Study researchers say only small amounts of essential oils are required because they are so concentrated.
The researchers also say, it is not only the fat content that makes a difference. Those who study the plants that these essential oils come say certain essential oils can increase your metabolism. Oil extracted from black pepper, ginger, sweet orange and palmarosa are said to be examples. Aromatherapy specialists say that they stimulate digestion and as a result metabolism function tends to increase.
As the Bel Marra Health article reads, if an individual is interested in reducing the number of calories, there is also a theory that inhaling the scent of essential oils extracted from flowers, seeds, stems, leaves and even roots, will quell appetite.
Spokesperson for Bel Marra Health Jim Chiang says, “Studies continue on just how essential oils may benefit our immune system. According to Dr. Phillip Minton eating essential oils can improve circulation and prevent heart disease.”
More research is required to determine the full impact that the various plants extracts can have on the human body.
