Does Betalean Hp Work
If you're
like most people who've flipped through a fitness magazine and
seen an advertisement for EAS's Betalean
Hp, you've probably asked yourself "I wonder... does
Betalean Hp work?"
As you probably
guessed, there's no simple answer to that question. Why? Because,
like any diet pill, Betalean Hp works for some people and doesn't
for others. It's not that the product is bad, it's just that everyone
responds differently to diet pills.
Let's take
a look at Betalean Hp's two primary mechanisms of action: 1) Thermogenesis,
and 2) Appetite Suppression.
BetaLean HP
and other ephedrine/caffeine fat burners
seem to mimic and intensify the adrenergic hormones (a heat modulator
in the body), which mobilize fatty acids from our triglyceride
stores and force the skeletal muscles to use more fatty acids
for heat production. The ephedrine/caffeine stack can therefore
be a good aid to weight loss, but it can also cause side effects
if not used with care.
Thermogenesis
Ephedrine
Ephedrine has been shown to increase the effectiveness of thermogenesis
(fat burning) in the body. It has powerful effects on the cellular
mechanisms that control fat release from fat cells. Some of these
effects include contributing to the release and blocking the re-uptake
of the neurotransmitter norepinephrine. This gives norepinephrine
the ability to continuously stimulate receptors in your body,
causing fat cell "flood gates" to open and facilitate
fat loss. The Chinese herb ma huang (Ephedra sinica) is the chief
natural source of the ephedrine family of compounds, although
there are other minor sources, such as Sida cordifolia.
Caffeine
The second key thermogenic ingredient caffeine is
a methylxanthine that stimulates hormone-induced fat burning.
Green tea extract and caffeine anhydrous are the caffeine sources
in BetaLean HP. Caffeine works by increasing free fatty-acid concentrations
and adrenaline levels. This results in greater lipolysis (oxidation
of fats for energy), which can drain your fat stores over time.
This change in a muscle's utilization of energy substrates can
have a profound effect on fat loss. Caffeine also heightens mental
alertness, which can positively affect your motivation to exercise
and create the caloric deficit needed to lose body fat.
BetaLean HP contains naringin, which extends the life span of
caffeine before the body degrades it to the inactive metabolite
paraxanthine. The prolonged presence of caffeine allows it to
do its job better for a longer period of time. This results in
a higher average metabolic rate and therefore a greater amount
of fat burning.
Coleus forskohlii
Coleus forskohlii promotes thermogenesis through its stimulation
of thyroid function. It also helps liberate fatty acids from the
adipose tissues by increasing the level of cyclic adenosine monophosphate
(cAMP) in the cell. These properties enhance the effects of the
basic ephedrine/caffeine combination.
Appetite Suppressant
The ephedrine/caffeine stack reduces appetite, which seems to
account for about three-quarters of the weight loss you might
experience. The other one-quarter is accounted for by increased
thermogenesis.
At fairly high doses, versions of this stack can cause a significant
increase in the number of calories burned each day. In one trial
published just this year, 50 mg of ephedrine was given to volunteers
three times per day. Under these controlled conditions and using
very precise monitors to measure energy expenditure, it was found
that 3.6% more energy was expended in a 24-hour period.
The
only way to really find out the answer to the question "Does
Betalean Hp Work" is to actually try it out for yourself.
