What Is A Fat Metaboliser And How Does It Work?

12/30/2014

The name says it all. Fat metabolizing products are designed to assist the body’s ability to burn off calories and excess fat, so there is little doubt about how this product is intended to work.

The recommended dose is two capsules a day—one in the morning and one in the afternoon - and a quick look at the label reveals a few promising ingredients. Sadly, the inclusion levels are far too low to offer any real weight loss benefits, but the diet plan is not without merit because it allows just 1,500 calories a day.

Key Ingredients. There is nothing groundbreaking about this mix, especially in such low quantities, but a weak potency such as this is also less likely to produce side effects, so it isn’t all bad.

Playing Your Cards Right

Everyday is a new beginning whether we choose to notice it or not. Being the master of our own fate gives us the freedom to exercise our own will provided we hold the sufficient intrinsic power to conquer our hurdles & fears as they arise in life. Stress & worry are the main ingredients for a bad day from marital or relationship issues, demanding children and families all the way to business & economic failure and a collapse from being under pressure at the seemingly wrong time. Is there ever a good time for a problem in our life? Surely this contradicts the entire idea of a problem in itself. Those who use their intelligence & logic to fix their problems may quickly move up the ladder in life however, they often fall flat on their face in other areas due to an imbalance in the natural energy field that eternally seeks to remain in harmony. This could be described as a huge electromagnetic field that holds everything together in existence.

Desires & goals are often not reached simply because the individual has not gained enough experience to receive it, hence the term - "Good things come to those who wait." It is not a pack of cards that are dealt by the Divine order as and when it feels like, it is a state that can only materialize when conditions are suitable. A flower cannot grow without light or water - the seed is not the end result, it simply has within it the potential to become a flower wherein the surrounding elements facilitate the growth.

Every moment is a new beginning when we choose to let go of the past. When we walk through life holding onto the past we are likely to crash into oncoming traffic. Would you drive your car a mile down the road using the rear view mirror to constantly check where you have been?

You deal your own cards in life.

Problems With Belly Fat?

A common problem that most people face whilst exercising is the infamous belly fat that just refuses to disappear. This is issue arises due to applying the incorrect technique, lack of discipline and not because it is simply hard to remove. It is evident that unless you are burning fat whilst building mass your muscle will remain hidden leaving the illusion that nothing is being achieved. This is why most people give up within the first few months of training, expecting to lift weight and see instant results though never truly understanding the nature of their own body. If it is definition you are going for then fat-burning is a must along with light weight exercise. The heavier the weight you choose to lift, the more muscle mass you will gain, requiring more effort in the cardio area to define the muscle.

There are many culprits that shatter any chance of reaching your desired body such as overeating, excessive alcohol intake and lack of discipline with your exercise routine. By minimizing stress you lower your cortisol levels. Cortisol is a steroid hormone (a Glucocorticoid) which is produced by a function of the adrenal cortex. It is released in response to stress and a low level of blood glucose. Its functions are to increase blood sugar to suppress the immune system, and to aid the metabolism of fat, protein and carbohydrate. It also decreases bone formation. It is also known as Hydrocortisone in medication.

Vitamin C helps to balance the Cortisol levels when you are stressed. It is a water-soluble vitamin that is necessary for normal growth and development. Leftover amounts of the vitamin leave the body through the urine which means you need a continuous supply of such vitamins your diet. Vitamin C is essential for making Carnitine, a compund that helps your body with the process of turning fat into fuel.


It may seem logical to avoid fatty foods to remove the fat from your body however if you come to understand the role that fat plays within your body then you look at the idea in a very different light. It is necessary to have a fair amount of 'good' fat in your diet because all of the cells in the human body are made up of two layers of fats, or lipids which are made up of good or bad fats depending on which is predominant in your diet. Provinding the cell lipid layers are made up of healthy fats, they will become more sensitive to insulin and allow the receptors to fuse together with ease promoting good metabolism. Remove trans fats from your diet as they will make you fat then eventually kill you.

Sleep is an essential part of the daily routine and is the back bone of a solid workout routine. Tiredness produces a hormone called Ghrelin, triggering the craving for sugar and other components that will hinder your progress. Losing sleep alters your hormone production also which affects your Cortisol levels.


Start your day with plenty of protein and do not skip meals using logic to lose fat. Logic has no place here. Cereal is not ideal as it is usually packed with sugar an additives. Drinking around 4 cups of green tea throughout the day, along with a fair exercise routine and eating plan can help you shed around 2-3kg in 2 months as there is a compound in the brewed tea that speeds up the metabolism.
