Supplement Efforts - to increase weight loss... - If you're searching for a pill that magically melts away the pounds safely and quickly, allowing you to pig out on cookies and chips every night without having to walk a step or lift a weight, keep looking-- it doesn't exist. (If anyone tells you it does, lace up those high-tech sneakers and run in the opposite direction.) That being said, there are supplements that some folks find helpful in addition to (not instead of) a healthy diet and adequate exercise:
Calcium: Increased intake has been linked with lower body weight and fat; this vital mineral tends to fight the fat that magnifies your middle at middle age.
CLA (Conjugated Linoleic Acid): Helps shepherd fat and blood sugar into muscle cells instead of fat cells.
Garcinia Cambogia: Contains HCA, which gums up the carbs-to-fat conversion process; may also affect brain chemicals that control appetite.
Green tea: Thought to increase the rates at which energy is created and fat is burned; also serves as a mild diuretic, blocking water retention.
L-Carnitine: Helps the body turn fat into energy; may also help ease exercise-induced fatigue.
Don't forget a good, all-purpose multivitamin/mineral to make sure you're not missing anything nutritionally. (For in-depth information on another weight-loss option, Coleus Forskolii.) It's always a good idea to get a knowledgeable health practitioner's assistance in designing a supplementation program, especially if you are looking to lose weight because of a pre-existing health condition.
