Supplements can prove to be an easy remedy to all the weight gain woes. Many people who have used them, swear by the results they have received. But one must be wary of the variety of supplements being sold over-the-counter. Every supplement has its pros & cons. Here are a some ways they can be useful:
Some are appetite suppressants. They influence hypothalamus, the appetite regulating part of the brain. They block serotonin and norepinephrine, thus giving one a feeling of being full. When one feels full, he eats less.
Still others inhibit lipase. Lipase is responsible for the breaking down of fats after one ingests food laden with fats. Lipase inhibitor helps in getting rid of a good portion of the fats via bowel movement and thus fats do not get absorbed into the body.
Polyphenols present in some are capable of boosting the body’s metabolism by up to 17 percent. An increased metabolism helps in burning up the fat cells faster. Polyphenol found in green tea, EGCG, blocks weight gain. The body warms up as the cells lose calories in the form of heat. This checks any hunger or cravings felt.
Appetite suppressants such as soluble fiber too is found in some supplements to aid in weight loss.
And now here are some well known weight loss supplements:
