Lipolyze
Evolved Non-stimulant Fat Burner can
be best categorized as a caloric wasting
compound . Whereas most fat burning
formulations on today's market depend on
stimulants such as ephedra (rarely seen
today), caffeine, and synephrine at
SPECIES, we reject the premise that the
only effective way to burn fat is to
"stimulate" the body into submission.
While stimulants do increase metabolic
rate, they also increase the production
of catabolic (muscle wasting) hormones
such as cortisol. As cortisol levels
rise in the body, lean muscle tissue is
broken down, immune system function is
suppressed and dangerous abdominal belly
fat deposition is increased.
Remember, the quantity of lean muscle in
the body is highly correlated with the
basal metabolic rate (BMR). Less muscle
means a lower BMR! If stimulant-based
fat burners are used to help shed
unwanted body fat, there's a very good
chance that, once they're
discontinued, metabolic rate will be
significantly lower and the
predisposition to gain unwanted body fat
will be significantly higher.
If this scenario wasn't bad enough,
consider this stimulants raise blood
pressure, increase heart rate, and
increase anxiety levels. Therefore,
individuals with a history of heart
disease, high blood pressure, or brain
chemistry abnormalities should certainly
steer clear of these compounds.
In the following paragraphs, I will
explain how five unique herbal compounds
work in synergism to create the
extremely potent, non-stimulant based,
fat burner that we find in LIPOLYZE.
Oleoylethanolamide (OEA)
OEA is is an endogenous peroxisome
proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPAR-A)
agonist synthesized in the intestines. PPAR-A is highly expressed in muscle,
the liver, kidneys, and heart and is
involved in the regulation of lipid
metabolism, specifically the
transcription of the genes involved in
the beta-oxidation (burning) of fatty
acids and lipogenesis (storage of fatty
acids).
OEA has also been shown to have anorexic
properties, meaning it decreases food
intake and sends hunger-curbing messages
to the brain.
If all that weren't enough, OEA can also
lower lower blood cholesterol and
triglyceride levels.
T2 (3,5 di-iodo-thyronine)
T2 is a metabolite of the thyroid
hormones T4 (thyroxine) & T3 (triiodothyronine).
It has specific direct actions which do
not involve thyroid hormone receptors,
unlike T4 and T3.
(1) It raises BMR (basal metabolic rate)
which in turn increases energy
expenditure in the body.
(2) It's a metabolic uncoupling agent
that "uncouples" or disconnects the
ATP-producing machinery in the cell and
"releases" all the potential energy that
was supposed to be used to produce ATP.
Due to the energy and ATP loss (which is
dissipated as heat), the muscle cells
must dig into stored body fat stores and
oxidize additional fats to ensure that
optimal energy levels are maintained.
The following analogy should help explain how T2 exerts its
energy-wasting effect in the human body. Imagine someone putting a hole
in the gas tank of your automobile. The car would still perform at
maximal capacity however, it would require a significant amount of
additional fuel to travel the same distance it had prior to the
punctured tank. Likewise, T2 makes the mitochondrial membranes more
permeable (creates openings) which cause the loss of valuable "fuel"
(ATP) from the "tank" (muscle cell). To combat this energy loss,
additional fatty acids must be oxidized to ensure optimal performance
levels.
Even more exciting is that fact that T2 "wastes" calories without
elevating blood pressure, without raising heart rate, and without
causing central nervous system over-stimulation.
(3)T2 stimulates the conversion of T4 (inactive thyroid hormone) into
the more active T3 form.
(4)T2 stimulates the release of growth hormone (GH) which is a powerful
fat burning and tissue regenerating compound.
PROPIONYL L-CARNITINE
Inside the cell, L-carnitine transports long chain fats into the
mitochondria (energy-producing chamber) where they are then oxidized
into ATP. In theory, if we can increase the amount of L-carnitine within
the muscle, we can theoretically increase the quantity of fatty acids
that get oxidized. Until recently the problem has been that regular L-carnitine
and even the more exotic acetyl-L-carnitine lacked the ability to
penetrate skeletal muscle tissue (which is where most fat oxidation
occurs).
On the other hand, Propionyl-L-carnitine, a relatively new version of L-carnitine,
has important effects on skeletal and cardiac muscle. Back in 1990, a
human study demonstrated that propionyl-L-carnitine could combat the
destructive effects of low oxygen status and muscle fatigue in heart and
skeletal muscle. More relevant to our discussion is the fact that
propionyl-L-carnitine has a tremendous ability to penetrate skeletal
muscle and thus facilitate the transport of long chain fatty acids into
the mitochondria.
GUGGULSTERONES
The thyroid gland releases a hormone known commonly as thyroxin (T4 for
short). T4 is an inactive form of thyroid hormone that must ultimately
be converted into triiodothyronine (T3), the active thyroid hormone.
Whenever any sort of diet is initiated, the body's natural inclination
is to slow down the conversion of T4 (inactive) to T3 (active).
Ultimately, when this happens, metabolic rate slows and fat losses crawl
to a halt.
In India, the Guggul is a tree which exudes a resinous sap out of
incisions that are made in its bark. This resin has been used for
centuries as part of Indias traditional medicine called Ayurveda. This
resinous sap can be processed, purified, and then standardized for its
active components Guggulsterones Z and Guggulsterones E. These two
fractionations have the unique ability to support thyroid function by
increasing the conversion of inactive T4 into active T3 and, in doing
so, restore normal thyroid function to the dieting athlete.
GREEN TEA EXTRACT
Green Tea Extract (Camellia sinesis leaf) is a powerful antioxidant
similar to vitamin C, vitamin E, and beta-carotene. However, researchers
have suggested that the active ingredient called epigallocatechin
gallate (EGCG) may, amazingly, have 200 times the antioxidant properties
of vitamin E. A study from the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition
revealed that green tea extract caused a significant increase in energy
expenditure and fatty acid oxidation. The researchers noted a 4%
increase in 24-hour energy expenditure which actually translates to a
35-43% increase in daytime thermogenesis. What's even more significant
to cardiac and thyroid patients is the fact that none of the research
subjects reported any of the side effects rapid heart rate, elevated
blood pressure, or increased anxiety that are commonly seen with the
multitude of stimulant-based fat burners.* |
