ZYLENE 1.1 Reduce CRAVINGS Control APPETITE Lose WEIGHT

Ingredients:
Chromium:
is an essential trace mineral that aids in glucose metabolism, regulation of insulin levels, and maintenance of healthy blood levels of cholesterol  and other lipids. Chromium forms part of a compound in the body known as glucose tolerance factor (GTF), which is involved in regulating the actions of insulin in maintaining blood sugar levels and, possibly, in helping to control appetite. Increases insulin sensitivity*

Resveratrol:
is a naturally occurring phytoalexin produced by some higher plants in response to injury or fungal infection. Phytoalexins are chemical substances produced by plants as a defense against disease. It occurs in the vines, roots, seeds, and stalks, but its highest concentration is in grape skins and red wines. Resveratrol interferes with all three stages of cancer formation: initiation, promotion and progression. It is believed that Resveratrol is the reason that proves the French paradox, stating that despite the French having diets high in saturated fats, they suffer relatively low incidence of coronary heart disease. It is extracted from the shrub, Polygonum Cuspidatum.

Hoodia Gordonii:
is a cactus-like plant that grows primarily in the semi-deserts of South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, and Angola. The chemical constituents in Hoodia, P57, work within the satiety center by releasing a chemical compound similar to glucose, but are up to 100,000 times more powerful. The hypothalamus receives this signal as an indication that enough food has been consumed and this in turn stunts the appetite.

Garcinia Cambogia:
is a natural form of Hydroxcitric acid (HCA) which can inhibit an enzyme in cells, citrate lyase, which is needed for the conversion of carbohydrates into fat. In the cell, carbohydrates are broken down into citrate compounds, which are then converted (by citrate lyase) into another compound; acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl CoA)- the metabolic building block for fat synthesis. Garcinia can inhibit fat production and suppress appetite.

Eleutherococcus Senticosus:
is termed an adaptogen. An adaptogen is defined as a therapeutic and restorative tonic generally considered producing a balancing effect on the body. In general, an adaptogen can be thought of as a substance that helps the body to deal with stress. Its action in the body is due to its stimulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis to secrete adrenal corticotropic hormone (ACTH). ACTH has the ability to bind directly to brain cells and can affect a variety of behaviors in the body. These behaviors might include motivation, vitality, performance and arousal.

In the traditional Chinese medicine, it is said to soothe the heart, strengthen vital energy, and assuage agitation. One of the reasons Poria Cocos is so highly valued is because, as with other mushrooms, the active compounds are extremely easy to digest and assimilate.

Cassia grows both wild and cultivated in hot, wet climates in a minimum of fifty-nine degrees Fahrenheit, and thrives in moist, well-drained soil in sun or partial shade. Its one of the oldest spices known to mankind.

Lotus Leaf:
is better known as the water lily. Its considered sacred in Asian religions for its ability to stay dry and clean. When water drops on the leaf, it beads up and rolls off the waxy surface, washing away dirt as it goes. Scientists have worked to mimic its water-repellent, self-cleansing properties, developing a simple, inexpensive ways to create similar synthetic coatings. The surface of the lotus leaf is not perfectly smooth, but rather porous much like that of a sponge. The air trapped in the crevices prevents water from adhering to the solid.

Cumquat:
was originally assumed to be a citrus but was later revealed to have a somewhat simpler structure than citrus and was allotted its own genus, Fortunella. Cumquats have a good measure of Vitamin C, plus potassium, and beta-carotene. And because the fruit is usually eaten whole, there is an extra nutritional boost from the peel and seeds.

It yields in most parts of China, collected during the frost season, dried in sunlight, and used unprepared or stir-baked. Mulberry leaves are thin, glossy, and light green in color. The shape of the leaf can be quite variable even on the same tree, and are a popular food source to the silkworm.

Methionine:
is a sulfur containing essential amino acid and belongs to a group of compounds called lipotropics. It is important in the process of methylation where methyl is added to compounds as well as being a precursor to the amino acids cystine and cysteine. Improper conversion of methionine can lead to atherosclerosis. Methionine can occur at other positions in the protein, but during the creation of amino acid chains, methionine is always created first.

Green Tea:
contains catechins, which are known to possess potent antioxidant activity. They may provide beneficial health effects by protecting the body from the damaging effects of oxidative damage from free radicals. The powerful antioxidant activity is about 25-100 times more potent than vitamins C and E. A number of chronic disease states have been associated with free radical induced oxidative damage, including cancer, heart disease, and suppressed immune function and accelerated aging.

Pyruvate:
is a salt form of pyruvic acid- a 3-carbon molecule derived from the breakdown of glucose. In the body, glucose (6 carbons) is split into two pyruvic acid molecules in the end stages of cellular glycolysis. When enough oxygen is present, pyruvic acid can be converted into acetyl CoA in the mitochondrion of the cell to produce energy. Because glucose (the chief sugar used by cells for energy) is broken down body into pyruvic acid, an increased level of pyruvic acid in the body can enhance a cells ability to generate energy.

These seeds provide food for many butterfly larvae, and the leaves are used as food and in herbal medicines.
