I Am Going To Guess That You Have Been On The Internet Before, And Thus You Have Seen Plenty Of Ads For Treatments That Supposedly Help You Lose Weight, "Using one weird trick". Or you might have seen recent news about research claiming to have discovered what is been described as "exercise in a pill". Unfortunately there is very scientific evidence that any drug will make you lose weight in a significant amount, safely and healthy. However There Really Are Some Promising Treatments In Development Right Now That Do At Least.
Something to help people lose weight based on new insights into how your body absorbs nutrients, and uses energy. So Enjoy Your Little Bacon Sandwich There While We Walk You Through The Facts And Fictions Of Weight Loss In A Pill. Let's started with what your doctor can do for real today. Because you actually can get medications for weight loss, by prescription and they come in two basic categories: appeatite suppressants and fat blockers. Appettite suppressants work by blocking your body is re-absorb the chemical signals that your brain uses, called neurotransmitters to regulate hunger.
You have probably heard of couple of these neurotransmitter serotonin and norepinephrine, they are released by your hypothalamus make you feel full. So if a chemical can block your body is ability to reabsorb those chemical, you would feel more full, and eat less. Do they work? Well, sort of. And only for a while when combined with diet and exercise studies have shown that prescription appetite suppressants can lead to losing around one and half to maybe a little over 2 kilograms of extra weight. But after six to eight weeks, the appetite controls center in your brain adjusts to the new levels of those neurotransmitter, and the weight loss benefits disappear.
Fat blockers work differently, the inhibit an enzyme called lipase. When you eat food that has fat in it, those fat malecules need to be broken down into their constituents parts, glycerol and fatty acids, before they can pass through the walls of your intestines. That is because fat molecules are too big to pass through the membranes of your cells on their own. Lipases Are Enzymes That Break Down Those Fat Molecules. And In Order To Do That They Need To Bind With t
Them. Fat blocking drugs work by bonding with lipases which prevent them from bonding with fat.
And without lipases to break it down, fat passes through your intestines and out of your body without ever being obsorbed. So do they work? Pretty well, actually studies have shown that they stop about 30% of the fat in your food from getting taken into your body. And over th course of two years people who took a fat blocking drug lost, on average about two and half kilograms more than people who didn't. But there can be some serious and kindar gross.. Side effects. Because Fat Blockers Keep The Fat In Your Intestines, Using The Toilet Can Become A Messier, Oilier Business. So those are you current prescription options.
Then you have got your over the counter weight loss supplements. And i am going to be honest with you here, nearly all of these are bogus. There is very little good science that suggests that any of them will halp you lose weight. At all. According to the office of dietary supplements at the national institutes of health, the only yes only one of these that has stoof up to reputable trials and is legal in the United States is green tea. Green tea contains both caffeine and organic compound known as catechin. Separately, these two things don't contribute to any statisically significant amount of weight loss but when you put them together, they appear to act synergistically.
Caffeine stimulates the nervous system, which has a thermogenic effect, basically heating up your body by getting your nervous system to tell everything to go a little faster. And catechins inhibit the action of lipases wich gives them a minor fat blocking effect. They also stimulate the production of norepinephrine, which helps with hunger control. So together these compounds have a mild appetite suppressant effect that works the same way as prescription appetite suppressants.
