Frequently Asked Questions about
ZyMelt
What is ForsLean®?
ForsLean® is a standardized extract from the root of the Coleus forskohlii
plant, a member of the mint family. Coleus forskohlii is the only known
plant source of forskolin, a compound that may increase lean body mass and
optimizes body composition.*
How does ForsLean®
help me with my weight?
The key compound in ForsLean®, forskolin, facilitates a cascade of
biochemical events in the body that allow fat cells to be used as energy and
helps utilize hormones to maintain and/or increase lean body mass. This
provides the means to maintain or improve body composition. Specifically,
forskolin activates an enzyme called adenylate cyclase, the main enzyme
involved in the production of a metabolic molecule called cyclic adenosine
monophosphate, or cAMP. cAMP is indispensable to many bodily functions –
triggering metabolic processes and thermogenesis (the body’s main fat
burning mechanism) as well as increasing muscle building hormones.
Direct benefits:
- Allows fat cells to be used as energy
- Maintains and/or increases lean body mass
- Utilizes muscle building hormones
- Optimizes body composition
What is lean body mass?
Lean body mass consists of muscles, vital organs, bone and bone
marrow, connective tissue and body water. Lean body mass is expressed as the
percentage of your total body weight that is not fat.
Why is it important to increase lean
body mass?
Lean body mass helps regulate the body’s metabolism and actually helps to
maintain healthy body fat levels. Plus, the higher your percentage of lean
body mass, the better your body’s aesthetic appearance. Lean body mass is
also an index of physical fitness, health status and susceptibility to
disease.
How does ZyMelt™ differ from most
weight loss aids?
Most commercially available weight loss aids are designed to decrease the
amount of body fat in an individual by decreasing your appetite, reducing
intestinal digestion of fats or slowing down the rate of fatty acid
synthesis.
However, while you may lose body fat, you also lose lean body mass and the
increased metabolism it provides.
ZyMelt™ takes into account the importance of
maintaining and/or increasing lean body mass in the process of weight loss.
Diminished lean body mass:
- slows down your metabolism
- makes it harder to lose weight and
maintain your weight loss.
Increased lean body mass:
- regulates body metabolism
- helps in losing weight
- helps you maintain your weight loss long
term
And, don’t forget, higher lean body mass is
better for your overall health and improves your body’s aesthetic
appearance.
Is Green tea a ‘magic bullet’ for
weight loss?
The majority of research on Green tea has focused on its antioxidative and
chemopreventive effects. The newest area of research focuses on Green
tea’s potential to promote weight loss. Animal and human studies have
demonstrated Green tea’s potential to:
- enhance thermogenesis
- promote fat oxidation
- increase the burning of calories and fat
needed to lose weight(1)(2)(3)(4)(5)
It appears Green tea has the potential to
influence body weight and body composition. Although the data is promising,
Green tea should not be used as a ‘magic bullet’ for weight loss. You have
to use it in combination with other lifestyle changes, including reducing
your calorie intake and increasing your physical activity.
