When it comes to weight loss, certain herbs may help support metabolism, reduce appetite, or aid digestion. However, they work best when combined with a balanced diet and regular exercise. Here are some herbs commonly thought to support weight management:
Green Tea Extract (Camellia sinensis)
β’ How it helps: Green tea is rich in antioxidants like catechins, especially epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), which may help increase metabolism and fat burning. Some studies suggest that green tea extract can promote fat loss, especially when combined with exercise.
We have an excellent Green tea blend called Green Machine π https://thepottingshed.rocks/ols/all
Ginger
β’ How it helps: Ginger is often used to support digestion and reduce bloating. It may also help boost metabolism and reduce appetite. Some research suggests that ginger may aid in weight loss by promoting thermogenesis (heat production in the body), which can help burn fat.

Cayenne Pepper (Capsaicin)
β’ How it helps: The active compound capsaicin in cayenne pepper is believed to increase metabolism and fat burning. It may also reduce appetite by promoting feelings of fullness. Some studies show it can temporarily boost calorie burn and fat oxidation.

Turmeric (Curcuma longa)
β’ How it helps: The active ingredient in turmeric, curcumin, has anti-inflammatory properties and may help with fat metabolism. It may also help balance blood sugar levels and reduce fat storage in the body.
We have Tumeric & Blk Pepper tinctures
Cinnamon
β’ How it helps: Cinnamon can help regulate blood sugar levels by improving insulin sensitivity, which may reduce fat storage. It also has a thermogenic effect that may slightly boost metabolism.
