Citrus polymethoxylated flavones (PMFs) and LJ100 Eurycoma Longifolia help dieters to maintain healthy cholesterol level, promote anabolic state, increase energy, reduce fatigue, improve mood during weight loss program that is essential for a successful healthy weight management program.

There are many diet programs in the market. However, most weight loss programs have high drop out rate because of it is very stressful for the body during exercise and diet programs that put the body into a catabolic state, in which the body can experience muscle loss, fatigue, reduced metabolic rate, low energy levels, binge eating, and eventual weight gain in the form of fat.

Metabolic Challenges

Metabolic syndrome (“Syndrome X” – encompassing insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension, and abdominal obesity) are reaching epidemic proportions in the United States and around the world. Excess glucocorticoids such as cortisol (a primary stress hormone) have been theorized to contribute to visceral (abdominal) obesity and diabetes. Our body undergoes major changes past 30 years of age. Science has shown a clear link between metabolic syndrome and adipose tissue. While the formation of adipose tissue results for a variety of reasons, in many adults this occurs due to changes in hormone balance. Specifically, there is a decrease in Androgen hormones (DHEA,Testosterone, etc.) and an increase in Sex Hormone Binding Globulin. While these types of hormones are primarily associated with sexuality, they act in concert with other hormones and control a wide array of metabolic functions.

Its important to understand that adipose formation is not bad because adipose tissue is actually a part of the endocrine system, creating a number of hormones to help the body support endocrine deficiencies. However, it can also over form and cause a host of health imbalances.

Anabolic vs Catabolic State

One way of categorizing metabolic processes, whether at the cellular, organ or organism level is as anabolic or catabolic. Catabolism is the part of metabolism that breaks down molecules into smaller units to generate energy and simultaneously takes measures to conserve energy. Stress, such as during weight loss program, can put the body into the catabolic state, in which the body can experience muscle loss,reduced metabolic rate with a corresponding reduced calorie expenditure and lower perceived energy levels, and weight gain in the form of fat. One aspect of the catabolic state is that it can be characterized as having high cortisol (a catabolic stress hormone) levels and low testosterone (an anabolic hormone) levels.

Conversely, in the anabolic state the body experiences muscle maintenance or growth, normal metabolic rates, and weight loss in the form of fat. The anabolic state can be characterized by relatively low cortisol levels and high testosterone levels.

We combine Citrus PMF with LJ100 Eurycoma Longifolia as the innovative nutraceutical ingredient for healthy weight management. LJ100 promotes healthy weight loss by maintaining healthy androgen and cortisol level, promote anabolic state, increase energy, reduce fatigue, while citrus PMF help maintain healthy cholesterol level. Together, they help dieter to maintain high energy levels while reducing the body's shift to a catabolic state during weight loss program.

Citrus peel extract includes Polymethoxylated Flavones (PMFs), particularly tangeretin, sinensetin,and nobilitin, which are known to have health benefits in maintaining healthy cholesterol level and promoting cardiovascular health. PMFs represent a class of “super flavonoids” extracted from citrus peels that exhibit approximately 3-fold potency in their ability to reduce cholesterol levels as compared to other citrus flavonoids. The citrus PMFs ( Polymethoxylated Flavones) help promotes healthy blood sugar control, healthy cholesterol, and healthy weight loss.

LJ100 Eurycoma Longifolia extract help to promote an anabolic state by maintaining low normal cortisol level and high normal androgen levels during the stress of a weight loss program. This hormonal control additionally provides energy by increasing ATP production while simultaneously aiding healthy weight management by increasing the body's basal metabolism rate.

Eurycoma Longifolia also known as Tongkat ali and Malaysian ginseng, specifically the Eurypeptides, have known to increase energy levels and enhance libido in older men. Eurypeptides are long chains of amino acids helps enhance weight loss and maintain high energy levels by maintaining normal levels of cortisol and testosterone during weight loss (anabolic state). More particularly, Eurycoma is used to help maintain normal (low) cortisol and normal (high) testosterone levels during the stress of weight loss. This hormonal control provides energy to a person in a weight loss phase while simultaneously helping them lose weight. As a result, effective doses of Eurycoma help prevent the body from seeking to gain weight by storing fat and increasing appetite, thereby help stop the “yo-yo” diet effect where a dieter’s initial weight loss of a few pounds sends the body into a catabolic state, leading to binge eating and fat storage. In addition, it is believed that inhibiting or reducing the cortisol spike associated with weight loss can make it easier for a person to control their appetite. Similarly, it is believed that controlling the cortisol and testosterone levels helps prevent the body from increasing fat storage and increases a person’s baseline energy.

Maintain Anabolic State

By reducing the cortisol spike and maintain high normal testosterone level, LJ100 helps dieters to better control their appetite by preventing the body's shift into a catabolic state during weight loss program, which usually involves binge eating and storage of excess calories as fat.

Maintains Healthy Androgen Levels & Reduce Cortisol

Science has shown a link between metabolic syndrome, adipose tissue, and changes in hormone balance, such as a decrease in Androgen hormones (DHEA, Testosterone, etc.), and an increase in Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG) and cortisol. LJ100 helps healthy weight management by maintaining high normal androgen levels, decreasing SHBG levels, and normalizing the release of cortisol.

Improve Energy and Reduce Fatigue By maintaining a high normal testosterone level, LJ100 helps to increase energy level by increasing ATP production, increase metabolism rate, and reducing fatigue.

Human Clinical

50 moderately overweight men and women were recruited to participate in a 6-week program of stress management, nutrition intervention and exercise. 40 were given 200mg of Citrus PMF with LJ100, and 10 were given placebo . Results showed the Citrus PMF+LJ100 supplementation together with overall lifestyle program significantly reduced body weight (BW) and body fat (BF), improve overall mood, reduced stress, reduced depression, reduced fatigue and improve overall vitality compared to placebo group. LJ100 helps to promote anabolic state by maintaining high normal level of testosterone (+14%) and low normal level of cortisol (-15%). Supplementation with Citrus PMF additionally help to reduce total cholesterol by 16% and LDL by 20%, a result not seen in the placebo group.
