CAN METABOLISM BOOSTERS BURN FAT ?
There is a class of natural supplements called Metabolism Boosters that have been shown in research studies to lower cholesterol and blood sugar. As a result of the metabolic boosting effect of these products, weight loss is more easily achieved, especially if the user is eating correctly and exercising regularly.
These products are classified into either Injectibles, or oral supplements.
Injectibles: 
Injectible metabolism boosters are usually Peptides. Peptides are chains of amino acids and mimic effects of hormones in the body. I have been
using a peptide called Sermorelin as a Growth Hormone booster very succesfully. Other peptides are well known to boost metabolism when used on a regular basis. Two popular formulas are GAC and GOAL
GAC stands for Glutamine,Arginine,Carnitine
and GOAL is Glutamine,Ornithine,Arginine,Lysine
They do similar things in the body, however, GOAL is better for boosting Growth Hormone(GH) similar to Sermorelin, while GAC is primarily to boost metabolism to burn fat.
L-Glutamine:
- This amino acid plays a role in muscle building, protein synthesis, cellular energy and nitrogen donation for many metabolic processes.
- It also helps to increase the production of HGH.
L-Ornithine:
- An HGH supplement that helps stimulate growth hormone secretion from the anterior pituitary gland.
- Some studies have suggested that Ornithine and Arginine given together work synergistically to increase HGH production by up to nearly 500%.(This is the formula I have in my GH Synergy Plus product)
L-Arginine:
- This amino acid has several benefits, it has been shown to increase sexual performance (as it is a vasodilator with a mechanism similar to Viagra, it stimulates the secretion of growth hormone, reduces healing time of injuries and damaged tissue, decreases blood pressure and with L-Lysine has been shown to help control anxiety.
L-Lysine:
- An essential amino acid which means that while L-Lysine is required by the human body to function properly, it cannot be created within the human body.
- By introducing more L-Lysine to the system, hormones can be produced in greater amounts to encourage the pituitary gland to produce HGH at a higher rate, similar to that seen in younger years.
- While L-Lysine itself does not actually produce HGH, it does control the hormones that encourage HGH production.
L-Carnitine:
- This is a very important amino acid used by the body to breakdown fat for energy.
- It is produced in the liver and kidneys and stored in the skeletal muscles.
- Because the amount of L-Carnitine one would have to ingest orally to be effective to burn fat would cause an upset stomach, it is given via injection.
- Additionally, Carnitine can increase androgen receptors ability to increase the efficiency of Testosterone therapy and other androgens.
ORAL metabolic boosters.
Two popular versions are
These are derived from natural plant sources concentrated and purified to achieve maximal effect.
The Bergamot orange (Citrus b
is a fragrant fruit the size of an
orange with a yellow color similar to a lemon. It grows primarily in southern Italy. The extract has been shown in multiple research studies to boost metabolism thus helping burn fat in the body as well as improving sugar and cholesterol metabolism.
Berberine is another naturally occuring nutrient that has been shown to have a beneficial effect on sugar and cholesterol metabolism. Berberine is usually found in the roots, rhizomes, stems, and bark.
During the last few decades, many studies have shown berberine has various beneficial effects on the cardiovascular system and significant anti-inflammatory activities.
Berberine exerts up-regulating activity on both the low-density-lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) and the insulin receptor (InsR). This one-drug-multiple-target characteristic might be suitable for the treatment of metabolic syndromeDiabetes mellitus
Berberine has been tested and used successfully in experimental and human diabetes mellitus.
Berberine has been shown to lower elevated blood glucose as effectively as metformin.
I am pleased to report that I am now offering all of these products to my patients to help boost metabolism, lose weight, burn unwanted FAT, lower blood sugar and cholesterol without the annoyance of pharmaceutical side effects.
Call the office if you would like to try GAC or GOAL. I will order these from my compounding pharmacy and they will be drop shipped directly to you. I am happy to discuss these options further and teach you how to use them.
For ordering Bergamot or MetaBerine, you can go directly to my on line store.
All the Best to you .
