Garcinia Cambogia 

​

Garcinia Cambogia is from the Clusiaceae family and is used as a culinary food. Curries and Ayurvedic medicines

use Garcinia Cambogia to help activate the digestive system. Garcinia Cambogia extract comes from a tropical fruit known as a Malabar tamarind. The fruit is native to Indonesia and other moist tropical climates and looks like a smaller and greener version of a pumpkin. Garcinia Cambogia may only grow to be, about the size of a Grapefruit. 

 

Block Fat (Glucose to Fat Conversion)

The Garcinia Cambogia fruit contains the active ingredient used as Garcinia Cambogia extract, which is called hydroxycitric acid (HCA), according to Nutrients. HCA is known to inhibit the enzyme adenosine triphosphate

citrate lyase (ATPCL), an enzyme involved in the metabolization of carbohydrates. 

​

Hydroxycitric Acid (HCA) has a second function, which is to eliminate the way your body creates Fat. HCA does

this by inhibiting citrate lyase, an enzyme that converts carbohydrates into energy. Garcinia Cambogia is effective

at improving athletic performance and speeding up the body’s metabolic rate. Garcinia Cambogia HCA does block enzymes that slow down the body’s metabolism, so it is effective at aiding in Weight loss in Men and Women.

Boost your Mood Naturally with Serotonin

​

When HCA enters your body, it increases Serotonin levels instantly, (See Neurotransmitter Chemistry).

Serotonin is made from tryptophan, an essential amino acid that you can only get through food consumption.

Since HCA boosts serotonin levels, it can work to curb unhealthy eating habits and improve your overall mood. 

 

Serotonin is the key hormone that stabilizes our mood, feelings of well-being, and happiness. 

Serotonin enables Brain cells and other nervous system cells to communicate with each other.

 

Serotonin Balances the Body to treat Disorders, Diseases and Dysfunction. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter

that the body uses to send messages between nerve cells and It will improve your mood, emotions, appetite,

and digestion. As the precursor for melatonin, it helps regulate sleep-wake cycles and the body clock functions.

 

Serotonin acts as an effective Anti-depressant and regulates Blood Clotting, Bone Density & normal Sexual function.

If your brain has too little Serotonin, eventually it will lead to depression, anxiety, and sleep trouble (Insomnia) for

many people. There are foods that might help increase serotonin levels like those witha high level of amino acids:

Hemp seed, Flaxseed, Sesame seed and Pumpkin seeds. The protein in eggs can significantly boost your blood

plasma levels of tryptophan. Pineapples, Salmon, and AlmondsTurkey, Oatmeal, Plums, Bananas, Wheat grass,

Epsom Salt, Cayenne pepper, Real Cocoa, all great sources of Tryptaphan which the body converts to Serotonin.

​

A Balance of Serotonin levels treats:

• Depression

• Schizophrenia

• Anxiety disorders

• ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder)

• OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder)

• Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

​

OCD is triggered by communication problems between the brain's deeper structures and the front part of the

brain. The frontal lobe is (front) part of the brain. The frontal lobe is responsible for higher cognitive functions

such as memory, emotions, impulse control, problem solving, social interaction, and motor function. These

parts of the brain primarily use serotonin to communicate. This is why increasing the levels of serotonin

in the brain can help to alleviate OCD symptoms. Elevating serotonin restore the delicate balance

between the brain chemicals dopamine and serotonin and calms hyperactivity in ADHD cases.

​

Be Rich with Magnesium Magnesium is the “anti-stress” mineral because it works to calm the nerves and,

relax the muscles. We recommend ensuring your diet contains foods that are good sources of magnesium,

such as leafy green vegetables, black beans, avocado, dried pumpkin seeds and bananas. Maximize the

absorption of magnesium rich foods by avoiding eating foods that contain phytates (nuts and grains) at

the same time, or eliminate them as they are allergens that can cause inflammation & digestive issues.

​

What does Serotonin do for the Brain?

​

Serotonin has a number of psychological functions. Approximately 40 million brain cells in our head,

and it is estimated that serotonin impacts just about every single one of them, either directly or indirectly. 

​

• Cognition: High levels of serotonin boost cognitive abilities including memory and learning speed.

• Autonomic nervous system function: Serotonin enhances autonomic nervous system function or                      

       fight-or-flight response.

• Mood: serotonin helps to reduce anxiety and depression, regulate our emotions, and contribute to an

       overall sense of well-being. Serotonin is like a natural mood stabilizer, that eases stress, and will keep

       you calm when you're in distress.

Raspberry Ketones

There are two main forms of ketone supplements:

​

• Ketones are most often found in powder form & can be mixed with liquids (smoothies, juice, water).

• Ketone salts: These are ketones bound to a salt, typically sodium, potassium, calcium or magnesium.

• Ketone esters are ketones linked to another compound called an ester and packaged in liquid form.

• Ketone esters are used primarily in research and aren’t as readily available for purchase as ketone salts.

• Ketone supplements have been shown to increase blood ketone levels, mimicking the effects of Ketosis

       when you follow a Ketogenic diet. Even when you are not following a ketogenic plan, fasting or dieting.

African Mango

The IG extract is rich in fiber, much like the fiber in foods that can help fill you up to promote weight loss,

lower blood cholesterol, and maintain blood sugar levels. Research on African mango shows beneficial

effects for diabetes and obesity, as well as analgesic, antimicrobial, antioxidant & Glycemic Index activity. 

​

The African Mango supplement reduces appetite, cholesterol levels, and improves blood sugar control when

combined with a healthy diet and lifestyle. A growing body of evidence supports the idea that African mango

is able to regulate leptin levels. Leptin is a hormone that controls appetite and produces hunger cravings.

Leptin levels commonly decrease when following restrictive diets causing cravings to increase, and is why

so many people struggle to stick to diets. African mango is beneficial in reducing cravings promoting fat loss

over time. African mango (Irvingia gabonensis) reduces cravings and appetite by increasing feelings of fullness

due to its high soluble fibre content, which slows stomach emptying and balances hunger hormones like leptin.

​

Benefits of African Mango:

• Weight Loss

• Suppress Appetite 

• Prevents and controls Diabetes  

• Promotes Leptin (controls cravings)

• African Mango can also help reduce cholesterol levels

• African Mango seeds are full of Iron, B vitamins, calcium, riboflavin.
