Thread: Some supplement for fat loss

Carnitine: Carnitine is important for coordinating fat an carb use in muscles. People with type 2 diabetes an obesity often have poor carnitine metabolism. Carnitine supplementation decreased carb use, but increased fat breakdown. It also increased glycogen storage, which is important for intensity training. Carnitine supplements may be particularly effective for weight loss it promotes fat for fuel.

Chromium: Prevents weight gain an improves blood sugar control.
Lack of exercise an poor diet cause problems with blood sugar and insulin regulation. Insulin resistance is extremely common in America an is linked with the metabolic syndrome- a group of health problems that include type 2 diabetes, abdominal fat deposition, high blood pressure, abnormal blood fats (high cholesterol an triglycerides, an low HDL). About 15 years ago a nutritionist found that chromium picolinate works like insulin to move sugar into cells an improves the sensitivity of insulin receptors. It was found that 1,000 mcg per day for three months helped prevent weight gain and improved insulin resistance in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Please feel free to add other supplements that help with weight loss I left a bunch out so we can all discuss our views an how the supplents we use have effected us with results.

tried chromium-useless for me. Best thing I ever used was lean fuel extreme and herbal burn...altough I dont know if the herbal burn dropped water only or what. Carnitine, not bad.
Currently using BCAAs, and so far I have noticed a positive result. Heard these are great for muscle sparing during dieting.
