p-value: p=<0.05
Capsinoid ingestion may enhance energy expenditure and fat oxidation, particularly in individuals with a BMI ≥ 25.
INOUE et al. (2007) conducted an RCT in High BMI (n=44). Capsinoids vs. placebo was evaluated on Oxygen consumption (VO2), resting energy expenditure (REE), and fat oxidation (p=<0.05). Capsinoids intake at 10 mg/kg significantly increased oxygen consumption (p<0.05) in subjects with BMI ≥ 25 compared to placebo.
