Be sure to look for these
important ingredients in your energy supplement:
We all need a perk every once in a while—something to give us a little extra energy throughout the day. But if your daily cup of joe isn’t doing the trick and you simply have no time for a cat-nap, energy supplements may help. Here are some key ingredients you should look for and one you should stay away from:
Fat burners: Fat burners increase the body’s natural metabolic rate so that everything is processed faster. It is a direct path to both energy and effective weight loss. But be sure to avoid fat burners with risky substances like ephedra. Stick to something with hoodia or green tea leaf extract. (more…)

We’ve been spending a lot of time this month talking about Res-Q Trim System and all its great benefits for weight loss.
But, today, I’d like to focus on “green tea leaf extract,” which has always been an integral ingredient in Res-Q Trim System, and which is studied extensively for its weight-loss abilities.
Green tea leaf extract is an all-natural ingredient that provides weight loss benefits in three ways. Let’s take a look.
Green tea has the ability to slow the absorption of sugar from the digestive tract. This encourages weight loss, and more importantly, reduces blood sugar spikes, insulin secretion, and allows the body to make better use of raw “energy.” (more…)

The entire body is made up of cells and these cells need antioxidants for optimal balance. Excess amounts of free radicals can harm cells. Neutralizing multiple types of free radicals promotes better cell health and arterial health.
The antioxidants in green tea promote good health by neutralizing free radicals. Green tea is very effective at neutralizing hydroxyl radicals, harmful free radicals. Green tea binds with hydroxyl radicals thus neutralizing them. Green tea also helps inhibit the formation of free radicals.
The leaves of green tea contain beneficial active constituents called polyphenols, phytochemicals with antioxidant benefits. Phytochemicals are beneficial compounds present in plants, vegetables and fruits. One of the most well-known active constituents in green tea is EGCG, also called epigallocatechin-3-gallate, a polyphenol present in green tea leaves.

Increasing the metabolic rate is important for weight loss. The metabolism becomes sluggish in overweight and obese subjects placed on low calorie diets. Here are three fabulous fat-burners for weight-loss:
Forslean
Manufactured with a proprietary process, Forslean is a patented extract of the roots of the plant Coleus forskohlii, a perennial herb with fleshy fibrous roots that grows in the wild in warm subtropical areas.
Unlike some other types of fat burners, Forslean works differently by directly activating the release of body fat while bypassing the need for direct hormonal activation in order to do so. Since Forslean works at a later step in the process of releasing fats to be used as energy, Forslean can safely and effectively burn fat and calories, and promote lean body mass.

Bitter Orange
Citrus aurantium is an immature fruit extract also known as Bitter orange, Seville orange, or Sour orange. Bitter orange (Citrus aurantium) is made from from the peel of this citrus fruit. Unlike ephedra, Bitter orange has a shorter half life and safely encourages the breakdown of fat for energy.
Since Bitter orange affects only select cell surface receptors, it achieves the same results of fat burning yet without the side effects. Unlike harsh stimulants, the fruit extract contains a family of organic compounds that do not readily cross the blood-barrier resulting in less stimulation of the central nervous system. Therefore, this fruit extract provides the benefits of fat burning without the high occurrences of side effects. According to a clinical study published in Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, “..acute CA ingestion increases metabolic rate while not affecting the cardiovascular indices of heart rate and blood pressure.”
Green Tea Extract
We also use green tea leaf extract. Green tea, made from tea leaves of Camellia sinesis, contains active components called flavonols that have potent antioxidant (free radical scavengers) abilities that promote good health an
d wellness.
Weight loss claims are now being made by retailers of green tea. The components that comprise green tea may work together having
a synergistic effect to help combat weight gain, help prevent body fat formation, help you burn more fat and calories, and increase energy expenditure.

Green tea extract supplements have been shown to be effective in clinical studies. A study published recently in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition showed that absorption of flavanols from green tea supplements was superior to that of green tea beverages. Furthermore, green tea beverages may contain sugar which would go against the purpose of a weight loss regimen.
Res-Q TrimSystem , an ephedra-free product, consists of only the finest, high-quality fat burners (green tea, forslean and bitter orange) to support the metabolism. The ingredients have been tested and have science standing behind them. Additionally, this Res-Q product is manufactured in accordance with current good manufacturing practices: FDA regulatory guidelines for the safe manufacturing of supplements.

Green Tea
In March, 2008, a placebo-controlled study examining the effects of green tea on exercise, was published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Fat was burned at a faster rate for those who took the Green tea supplement. The study also showed that green tea can play a role in insulin function and blood sugar tolerance, and increase the rate of fat oxidation.
Green tea promotes fat burning both at rest and during exercise. According to studies on green tea, weight loss can be achieved by increasing energy expenditure, which can be achieved by adding exercise and by taking Green tea. These findings suggest that green tea can help you burn more fat than exercise alone, and burn more fat faster during exercise. Even if you are not exercising, Green tea has also been shown to “promote fat oxidation in humans at rest.” (more…)
