| Product Description |
Chitosan Complex has been designed with a unique blend of nutrients that have a synergistic thermogenic and lipotropic effect to help boost the metabolism and excretion of dietary fats and regulate blood sugar, cholesterol and triglyceride levels. The product may help to improve body fat profile and assist during a weight loss programme.
CHITOSAN
Chitosan is all natural fibre extracted from the shells of crustaceans, such as shrimp, crab and other shell fish. It is an indigestible fibre that acts like a fat magnet, each capsule binds up to three grams of dietary fat which is then excreted naturally through the body. Clinical trials have also shown that it appears to reduce the absorption of bile acids and cholesterol, which leads to a lowering of blood cholesterol. Animal and preliminary human research suggests that Chitosan may prevent the blood pressure elevating effects of a high salt meal, possibly by reducing the absorption of chloride.
BOSWELLIA
Boswellic Acids, the active constituents of Boswellia have a cholesterol and triglyceride lowering activity. They are also well known for their anti-inflammatory actions.
L-CARNITINE
Carnitine is required in body for the transport of long-chain fatty acids and process of ‘burning’ fat within cells to release energy. Carnitine reduces the storage of excess fat by increasing the use of fat as an energy source.
JUNIPER BERRY
Juniper is a diuretic and a detoxifying agent and therefore encourages the body to lose excess water and to clear out toxins.
KELP
Kelp is a sea vegetable that is rich in the mineral Iodine, 1mg of Kelp contains approximately 1mcg Iodine. Iodine is required in the body for the manufacture of thyroid hormones which regulate body metabolism. By increasing the body’s metabolic rate, Kelp helps to ensure that the body is ‘burning’ carbohydrates and fats efficiently.
VITAMIN B6
Vitamin B6 plays an important role in the release of energy from foods, metabolism of proteins and fats and helps to maintain endocrine function and healthy fluid balance.
CHROMIUM
Research has found that Chromium in the form of glucose tolerance factor (GTF) potentiates the utilisation and activity of insulin, a hormone that is involved in blood sugar metabolism and glycogen production, utilisation and storage. Glycogen is burned within cells to produce energy and any excess is stored in the liver and muscles and is converted to fat if not required by the body. Effective blood sugar control prevents excess build up of glycogen and also stops sugar or sweet cravings associated with erratic changes in blood sugar levels. Chromium also increases lean muscle mass and promotes fat loss and is therefore an ideal nutrient for those on a weight loss programme.
