Product Review

Bio-Citrin is (-)hydroxycitrate an organic compound obtained from the dried rind of the Brindall berry fruit of the plant, Garcinia Cambogia, which is native to India. This chemically unique compound has been studied extensively for its effects on appetite regulation, metabolizing carbohydrates and total body lipids. Double blind studies indicate that those who took Bio-Citrin three times per day lost an average of 11.1 pounds per person over the other group that lost only 4.2 pounds per person. Because Bio-Citrin inhibits the metabolic enzyme in the body that is responsible for conversion of carbohydrate into fat, it thereby reduces fat and cholesterol production and increases the formation of additional glycogen. Bio-Citrin has a reduced involvement with the central nervous system, therefore, not having the normal appetite suppressant side-effects of nervousness or insomnia. Chromium Nicotinate is a form of chromium that has proven to be easily absorbed and retained in the body. The average American has been found to be chromium deficient. Chromium, in clinical studies, has been found to aid in the enhancement of insulin controlling blood sugar and cholesterol levels for prolonged energy production and it aids in the metabolization of protein into muscle. Bioperine® is nature's bioavailability enhancing Thermonutrient. Bioperine® enhances the body's natural thermogenic activity - hence the term Thermonutrient. This enhancement may be explained as a means of increasing thermal energy sufficient to "power up" mechanisms related to thermogenesis. This in turn, results in increased metabolic processes that create "demand" for "supply" of a broad range of nutrients that contribute to metabolism, i.e. vitamins, minerals, herbals, amino acids, etc.
