Summer is here and the time is right to get serious about your weight loss goals. Here are some of my recommendations: 

EGCG – Containing the highest-potency pure green tea extract available, EGCG enhances thermogenesis (fat-burning) and is a natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory.

L-Carnitine – Carnitine ushers fat into the mitochondria (the “powerhouse”) of cells, enhancing fat-burning. 

NT Factor – Promotes metabolism, maintains the integrity of cell membranes, and supports optimal mitochondrial function. 

Orthomega – Essential fatty acids are depleted by the standard American diet, which contains unhealthy fats. Orthomega provides EPA and DHA, crucial to proper biochemical functioning; it has been shown to combat insulin resistance which leads to fat accumulation around the mid-section. 

Capsiate Natura – Enhances metabolism with the help of capsinoids. In numerous clinical studies, Capsiate has been shown to increase metabolism without any side effects. 

Chromemate Chromium GTF – A critical trace element which helps facilitate uptake of glucose into the cells, stabilizing blood sugar and cravings. 

Dimpro – A dietary supplement that restores hormonal balance which may help to reverse hormonal weight gain. 

L-Glutamine – A critical amino acid in the maintenance of gut integrity with the added bonus of helping to alleviate sugar cravings. 

PGX Granules – A proprietary soluble fiber complex and sugar blocker. 

5 HTP – 5 hydroxytryptophan is a direct metabolic precursor of serotonin, a neurotransmitter responsible for mood regulation and satiety. 

You can find these and many more in Dr. Hoffman’s Fullscript dispensary
