8. Promotes Weight Loss

A unique compound discovered in tamarind is Hydroxycitric acid or HCA. You can extract this from tamarind or use it as a spice. The great thing about this HCA is its ability to prevent a specific enzyme in your body that is responsible for storing fat. That means less fat stored, less weight gained. Tamarind can also suppress the craving for food. It does this by stimulating the production of serotonin which is a neurotransmitter. Research is still going on with tamarind as a promoter of weight loss, and all signs are turning out to be promising.
