Aminogen and Weight Loss


Aminogen is a patented enzyme derived from plants which enhances the bodies absorption of protein.

During digestion protein is broken down into 22 amino acids which are building blocks for the body. Of these, 8 are essential as our bodies can not make them. Just because you are eating your lean protein portions does not mean that you are adequately absorbing it. In fact many people fail to fully digest and absorb all the proteins in their diet.

Protein provides the building blocks for the body and is essential for health and weight management. It is essential that you are getting at least 20% of your daily calories from protein, more if you do intensive work outs or are on a weight management program. Protein helps to build muscle and also raises the metabolism which in turn burns fat faster.

Unlike fat and glucose our bodies do not store protein efficiently. With insufficient protein in our diets our bodies will start to break down muscle for it's needs and in turn lower our metabolism which can lead to weight gain.

Green Tea For Weight Loss

Green Tea For Weight Loss.   Shrink While You Drink

Green tea has long been recognised as having many health benfifts. The Chinese have used green tea since ancient times as a herbal remedy & health tonic. A rich source of antioxidents, green tea is also effective in lowering cholesterol and limiting the negative effects of fatty diets.

Green Tea to Burn Fat
Green tea contains high amounts of polyphenols which activate the enzyme that is responsible for dissolving excess Triglyceride. Triglyceride is a substance that is synthesised by the liver and small intestine from sugars and fats and are essential for the body. Diets high in sugar and fat have excess Triglyceride which is stored as fat.


In the long run, this means that green tea effectively aids in burning fat.

Green tea and Metabolism
Green tea contains powerful antioxidants called catechin polyphenols that are responsible for many of the health benefits. One in particular, epigallocatechin gallate (or EGCG for short)is resposnible for stimulating the metabolism and accelerating weight loss.

This combined with the naturally occuring cafeine found in green tea stimulates the central nervous system which causes fat to be released in to the blood stream where it can be used to fuel the body. This process of fat being used for energy is call thermogenisis, it provides energy to the body, sheds water and ultimately results in the burning of body fat.

The catechin polyphenols found in green tea stimulate the conversion of fatty acids to fuel for your muscles during exercise thus increasing endurance and accelerating weight loss.
