The information on why and how each spice worked was impressive. However, I was disappointed that there were virtually no recipes. For you see, I wonder how these spices can make enough difference in one's weight, with the small amount put into a recipe -- and a recipe may feed several. That was what I was hoping the author would explain: How to use enough spice to increase the metabolism so that the food still tastes good but there is enough spice to make a difference.
