Description: Chitosan is a dietary fiber derived from the shells of crustaceans that has been shown in non-clinical studies to bind to fat and cholesterol in the digestive tract. NOW Chitosan contains LipoSan Ultra, a patented high-density form of Chitosan that binds up to five times more fat than conventional Chitosan according to laboratory testing. A published clinical study has demonstrated that LipoSan Ultra, taken as directed, may aid in the support of healthy body weight and serum cholesterol levels already within the normal range. NOW has also included Chromium in this formula. Chromium is an essential trace mineral that works with insulin to support healthy blood glucose levels and plays an important role in the proper utilization of protein, fat and carbohydrates.

Description: XFB AM is a thermogenic formula that may help promote energy and fat loss. It's perfect for anyone who wants to decrease their appetite and lose weight. XFBAM provides a premium blend of natural ingredients formulated to promote thermogenesis (fat burning), appetite control, and increased energy levels. The key ingredients in XFB AM work as follows:
Sclareolude: This is a fermented sage compound (derived from Salvia sclarea, and sometimes called Sclareolude or Norambrolide) which activates the enzyme adenylate cyclase involved in the generation of a cellular messenger called cAMP (cyclic adenosine monophosphate). The significance of this is that cAMP is involved in activating cellular enzymes and other substances that help move fat out of the fat cells and promote the weight loss process.
Hoodia Cactus Leaves: Hoodia has traditionally been consumed by South Africans for endurance and to suppress hunger.
Proprietary Thermo Blend: This blend provides Green Tea and Yerba Mate. The Green Tea and Yerba Mate both contain caffeine, which helps promote the natural thermogenic process of burning fat for energy fuel, as well as helping to control appetite.
Acetyl-L-Carnitine: Acetyl-L-Carnitine (ALC) is a source of precious acetyl groups which combine with coenzyme A (the metabolized form of the vitamin pantothenic acid) to create Acetyl-Coenzyme A (A-CoA). The A-CoA acts within the Krebs cycle helps to generate ATP and increase endurance. Clearly increased endurance is a benefit for exercising which will help promote weight loss.
Ginger & Cayenne: Research indicates that ginger (particularly the gingerol contained therein) is highly thermogenic. The mechanism of action seems to be that ginger induces the muscle tissue to consume more oxygen which is necessary for burning fat as a source of energy fuel. Likewise, cayenne's constituents have been shown to have thermogenic properties, as well as effecting metabolic rate.
