LeptiTrim Daytime Formula (formerly Slim Factors and Slim Factors Plus) - weight loss and management
An effective way to reduce body fat and gain lean healthy muscle
LeptiTrim
What they are and how they work
Leptin
The word Leptin comes from the Greek
word leptos which means thin. It was discovered in 1994 in
conjunction with the obesity gene and has encouraged an
array of scientific investigations since that time. Research
reveals that leptin is produced within adipose (fat) cells.
However, the larger the fat cell, the smaller the amount of
leptin that is produced. In other words, normal sized fat
cells are capable of producing leptin, but the large fat
cells in obese individuals are no longer able to produce
this hormone-like protein which regulates food intake,
energy expenditure and body weight. Studies have found a
direct correlation between circulating levels of leptin and
body fat. In the presence of IgF-1, leptin suppresses
appetite and enhances fat metabolism through thermogenesis
and the inhibition of fat synthesis leading to weight loss
and sustainable weight management. In summary:
Leptin
regulates food intake
enhances fat metabolism
increases thermogenesis
works
with IgF-1 to build lean muscle, balance blood sugar and
overcome insulin resistance IgF-1 (insulin-like
growth factor-1)
For slimming down and increasing lean
body mass, there is nothing quite as effective as IgF-1. It
is the backbone behind the metabolic functions involved in
energy utilization and it heads a whole group of compounds
which are vital for the efficient metabolism of
carbohydrates, fats and proteins. Without it, metabolism
slows, aging accelerates and lean body mass decreases. IgF-1
is involved in so many functions that it is found in
association with almost every cell in the body. It
effectively supports balanced blood sugar levels and it is a
factor in overcoming insulin resistance - so common in
overweight individuals. Because of its key role in metabolic
processes, IgF-1 is a major factor in the building of lean
muscle and the burning of fat.
IgF-1 is also involved in the
metabolic processes which shift fuel utilization from
protein to fat. With appropriate amounts of IgF-1, fat is
consumed and protein is conserved for the building of lean
muscle.
The combination of enhanced levels of
leptin and IgF-1 in Slim Factors, works synergistically to
metabolize fat, build lean muscle and enhance muscle tone
throughout the body. The use of Slim Factors may not
significantly reduce overall weight but it will certainly be
responsible for a slimmer physique - less fat and more lean
muscle. In summary:
IgF-1:
regulates energy utilization in the body
metabolizes fat
builds lean muscle
reduces insulin resistance in the overweight
balances blood sugar levels
Co-Factors
The co-factors in Slim Factors include
numerous compounds found in complete colostrum, as well as
other ingredients which support the processes of healthy
weight management, appetite control and energy usage.
Colostrum itself contains an abundant array of growth
factors, enzymes, amino acids, vitamins, minerals and
binding proteins which work together to improve metabolic
balance. When used with enhanced levels of leptin and IgF-1,
these additional co-factors:
boost energy,
increase thermogenesis,
curb unnatural cravings,
prevent caloric storage as fat.
cambogia - is a plant that contains the active
ingredient known as HCA (hydroxycitric acid) which naturally
curbs excessive appetite and prevents the body from turning
extra calories into fat. It supports the storage of glycogen
in the liver and muscles rather than as fat and activates
thermogenesis for the burning of excess fat.
Citrus Aurantium is the fruit of the
bitter orange. It provides synephrine which stimulates fat
metabolism and increases basal metabolism through
thermogenesis.
Phaseolus vulgaris is the Northern
White Kidney Bean. Extracts from this common bean have the
ability to block alpha-amylase - the enzyme necessary to
transform starch to sugar. As a result, excess carbohydrates
are excreted - there is no conversion to sugar or storage as
fat, and the body burns excess fat for fuel.
Chromium polynicotinate - is the
active component of GTF (Glucose Tolerance Factor) which is
responsible for binding insulin to cell membrane receptor
sites. Without GTF, insulin is useless. Chromium
polynicotinate has the ability to potentiate the effects of
insulin and to help overcome insulin resistance in
overweight individuals.
Green tea - contains many
health-enhancing properties, including polyphenols and
antioxidants. It helps regulate blood sugar and insulin
levels and also promotes the burning of fat. Green tea
boosts energy, lifts one's mood and enhances mental
clarity.

Metabolic
shifts that begin in our early 30's can affect weight,
energy levels, blood sugar balance, and much more.
That's why LeptiTrim
includes complete colostrum and a unique herbal
complex - designed to support inch loss after the age
of 30.
4 Metabolic
Factors Commonly Involved In Inch Loss
Thyroid Health-
Colostrum and other ingredients
in LeptiTrim
support a normal thyroid which regulates appetite and
the burning of calories. (IGF - 1, GH, Guggle, Coleus,
Thyrosine)
Thermogenic Rate-
contains ingredients that help naturally raise the
metabolic rate (thermogenesis) for the more effective
burning of fat. (Garcinia, Yerba mate, Coleus,
Cayenne)
Blood Sugar Balance-
Growth factors and Leptin, from
colostrum, along with Gymnema sylvestria and Chromium
polynicotinate support blood sugar balance.
Energy-
Metabolic factors increase
energy efficiency. (Colostrum, Schinzandra, Yerba
mate, Garcinia, Acetyl-L-carnitine)
