Fat burning and supplements

When looking at supplements thats gonna give you bang for your bucks there are a few things to consider...

CLA- (conjugated linoleic acid) this is a natural facilitator for fat loss by increasing the enzyme Lipoprotein Lipase, wich breaks down fat and also very effective at blocking estrogen and interferes with estrogen signalling in breast cancer cells, therefore slowing down even preventing breast cancer and gynocomastia in male bodybuilders. Effective dose - 2500 - 3500mg a day

Green Tea Extract - fatburner and powerful antioxidant
Green tea has many health benefits but for this segment im only gonna touch on fat burning. Green tea significantly increases thermogenesis and calorie expenditure over 24 hours by increasing the respiration rate of brown fat cells...
Effective dose - 75-90mg per serving 2-3 times a day with meals.

Guarana Extract (caffeine)
Energy boost and fat burning.
Caffeine as you know is a central nervous system stimulant,  increased alertness and more focus. Caffeine enhances energy and power output to increase fat metabolism and delaying onsets of muscle fatigue.
Effective dose- 200mg twice daily 6 hours apart.

L-Carnitine - cellular and mitochondrial energiser.

Carnitine is a potent fat burner because it is responsible for the transport of fats into the cells to be used for energy in the body. By raising the level of muscle carnitine, you support the fat burning process, and because your body becomes more efficient at processing fuel, it will increase your energy levels. Elevating carnitine will also improve physical performance by burning more fat, sparing glycogen, clearing muscle lactate, and increasing anabolic hormone response but that foe another time.
Effective dose- 500mg 2-3 times a day

These are all save and effective supplements for fat loss,  you can use them alone or in a fatburning combo by supplement companies, just make sure its all there and at the effective dosages; -)
