TRANSFORM YOUR BODY

Wish there were a way to slim down without spoiling any of your summer fun? Then best-selling Glow15 author Naomi Whittel suggests you learn about a West African spice that tastes like root beer and seems to help fat just fall off. Dichrostachys glomerata, or DG, comes from a small fruit tree giraffes love to snack on, and in one new study, folks who took it as a supplement lost over 17 times more weight than folks given a placebo. How does it work? "Scientists have discovered it actually enhances metabolism in 10 different ways," reveals Whittel, who travels the world in search of health-promoting treasures to bring back to the United States. Michigan hairstylist Susan Kenney is certainly glad Whittel returned with DG. Susan started taking the spice to help with a menopause belly, and she shed an effortless 54 pounds. Read on for Susan's inspiring story and to learn if the spice is something you might want to try. 

Experts tell us DG grows at the edge of Africa’s many forests and jungles, where fruit pods that aren’t eaten by wildlife are collected, dried and ground into seasoning. This spice is especially popular in Cameroon, where U.K.-trained biochemist Julius Oben, Ph.D., grew up. He was conducting research at universities abroad when he first heard reports about DG’s potential as an aid in controlling diabetes, obesity and other health conditions. Intrigued, he returned to his homeland and began setting up double-blind, placebo-controlled experiments at Cameroon’s University of Yaoundé. Today, Oben is the world’s leading expert on the spice. “What we’ve found is amazing,” he says. “Just amazing.”
