Lean Out™ by Beverly International Fat Transport System Take a look at the label on most of today's weight loss products and you will see little or no mention of "fat transport", despite the fact that this process is essential to getting lean. To get leaner, you need to lose weight, but not just any kind of weight. You need to reduce your fat weight -- what scientists term "fat mass"-- while holding onto your muscle mass. Most of your fat mass is stored in adipose tissue. To reduce it, the fat needs to be (1) extracted from adipose tissue and (2) transported to tissues like muscle and the liver where it can be (3) burned for energy. Beverly's R&D scientists have assembled a meticulously balanced cast of ingredients in Lean Out that supports all three of these essential processes and more. What: Lean Out belongs to a new category of supplements known as "fat transporters", so-named because it contains ingredients that support the extraction of fat from adipose tissue (the tissue where almost all fat is stored in the body) and its transport to tissues like the liver and muscle where it can be burned for energy. It provides a mega dose of natural occurring lipotropics (fat mobilizers), fat catalysts and related insulin stabilizing cofactors that are instrumental in the metabolism of fats. In a nutshell, the nutrients in Lean Out help your body retrieve fat out of storage and utilize it as energy. Who: People who want to reduce body fat, improve their body mass index (BMI), increase their energy level, and who want to hold on to their lean body mass while they lose fat. Why: The Lean Out formula is specifically designed to assist your body in (1) extracting fat out of adipose tissue and (2) transporting it to various metabolic "hot spots", highly active tissues like your liver and muscles that can (3) burn it up. Beverly's research and development scientists recruited together 9 ingredients for the purpose of achieving these three goals including: * * L-Carnitine * * Chromium Picolinate * * Choline Bitartrate * * Inositol * * DL-Methionine * * Vitamin B12 * * Biotin * * Betaine HCl * * Co-enzyme Q10 Leading the charge is L-carnitine, which has been found to reduce fat mass, increase muscle mass, and reduce fatigue even in 100-year-old subjects. The older you get, the harder it is to build muscle. That supplementation with L-carnitine was able to help these very elderly subjects lose fat and gain muscle -a great feat at any age- is impressive indeed. L-carnitine's best known role involves transporting fat deep inside the "power companies" of your cells, the mitochondria. It executes one of the final splashes of biochemistry before the fat is actually burned, releasing usable energy and heat (thermogenesis) in the process. Each ingredient in Lean Out covers a different specialty, some in close proximity and others far apart. They have been combined in quantities and proportions intended to create a critical mass required for the fastest possible extraction, transport and burning of fat. Lean Out ensures that while on a diet you'll activate stored bodyfat for extra energy and caloric needs instead of muscle. Even if not restricting calories, Lean Out still offers great benefit by stabilizing your insulin levels to prevent excessive fat gain and allow for fat loss. How: Lean Out can be taken with or without food but most find they are more consistent when they take it with meals. Take 1 capsule with each meal/shake for the first two weeks, then increase to 2 capsules at each meal/shake.
