| According to the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention, an astonishing two of every three
American adults are overweight. Simply put, being overweight
poses grave health risks for aging adults. Excess fat can
unleash a cascade of pathological effects in the body,
damaging every cell and organ system while increasing the
risk of age-related health problems.
A recently published study in the Journal of
the American Medical Association found that overweight
adults who followed a program of modest caloric restriction
achieved significant reductions in body fat mass in just six
months, while improving the ability of cells to normally
utilize insulin.1
A natural plant extract discovered in
Europe has been found to dramatically suppress appetite
without stimulatory effects. Extracted from the nuts of the
Korean pine, (Pinus koraiensis), pinolenic acid stimulates
the release of two of the body's most powerful hunger
suppressing hormones: CCK (cholecystokinin) and GLP-1 (glucagon-like
peptide-1).*2
This not only helps the body digest fats better, but also
sends a feeling of satiety or "fullness" to the brain,
decreasing the desire to eat and helping to control
excessive calorie intake.*
Life Extension's Natural Appetite Control
formula was developed for adults seeking to lower their
calorie intake and maintain a successful, long term weight
management program. Each softgel of Natural Appetite Control
provides 1000 mg of a standardized extract of Korean pine
nuts containing the highest concentration of pinolenic acid
found in any pine nut species.
This supplement should be taken in
conjunction with a healthy diet and regular exercise
program. Results may vary. |
