Are you motivated to lose weight? Sure, you are! You are aware of
the dangerous health consequences of being overweight? But, as many
other people, your battle to lose weight doesn't have any success! You
have probably tried so many different kinds of pills and diets without
any good result! You would like to know if a new scientific discovery
about how to lose weight will be able to help you. You are right;
scientists have discovered a new function of the vitamin B6 linked with
weight loss. Let's see how it works and how can you benefit from it.
Vitamin B RolesWe know 8 vitamins B: B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacin), B5 (pantothenic acid), B6 (Pyridoxine, pyridoxal and pyridoxamine), B7 (biotin), B9 (folic acid) and B12 (cobalamins). They are all chemically distinct although they are part of the same group of vitamins. However, all of them play a vital role to stimulate your body's metabolism, to improve your mood and energy, to drop off the effects of stress and to reduce your triglyceride levels. Have you noticed that all these effects contribute to lose weight? Nevertheless, according to new scientific investigations, the B6 vitamin would be a molecule much more active in weight loss. How then?
Vitamin B6 and its Newly Discovered Function
A recent study in United States has demonstrated that an insufficient intake of vitamins B6 would be responsible of a neurotransmitters production disorder. Neurotransmitters such as dopamine, serotonin and tryptophan play an important role in the feeling of well-being which prevents someone from eating too much sweet food and eating at any time. Additionally, vitamin B6 is involved in many aspects of metabolism and helps to 'burn' Body's fats.
Brazil Researchers Study
Researchers in Brazil discovered that patients had lost an average of 3.3 pounds for every milligram of Vitamin B6 added in their diet.
Food Sources of Vitamin B6
Eat spinach, bell peppers, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, cabbage, asparagus, turnip greens, celery, kale, garlic, tuna and banana.
Conclusion
There are evidences that the vitamin B6 can help to get weight loss. But to tell the truth, you cannot expect to lose a lot of weight just eating the kind of food enumerated before. I suggest you to eat a little more food which contain a lot of vitamins B6 and follow a professional diet program.
