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 Lepti•Trim 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 Lepti•Trim 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)
