Although weight loss is challenging for everyone, incorporating certain ingredients into your diet can help boost your metabolism. With that in mind, if you are struggling to achieve sustainable weight loss, taking a closer look at what you are eating–and what you are not eating–is a good start.
Specifically, according to Jamie Bacharach, health expert and licensed medical acupuncturist at Acupuncture Jerusalem, the one secret weight loss ingredient that you should add to your diet is Fenugreek.

She explains, "Daily Fenugreek fiber intake has been proven to promote weight loss by causing feelings of fullness and curbing cravings."
"Ideal for people who struggle with frequent cravings, habitual snacking and feelings of hunger, Fenugreek is a popular herb in the far east due to its versatile uses in healing and wellness.
With that in mind, if you are struggling to lose weight, adding Fenugreek to your diet can help speed up weight loss. Plus, you can incorporate it into your diet easily--either by adding it to a salad or grounding it up to add more flavor to any dish.
