Slim down with turmeric-This bright yellow spice is popular in Moroccan cuisine and has metabolism boosting powers. It also helps to flush toxins from the liver. It can even help to lower blood sugar and prevent diabetes. Simply sprinkle on chicken or steak for a spicy, curry taste. If you prefer you can take a 400 mg. supplement daily.

Beat bloat with cumin-This spice has more than 100 chemicals that help ease digestion to prevent gas and bloating. It also stimulates enzymes that help to break down food more efficiently. Use ground cumin to season food or you can find it in teas and capsules in health food stores.

Stop flakiness with fenugreek-If you have dandruff but don't like the medicine smell that traditional shampoos leave behind, you should try fenugreek.
