Description
Gaspari Nutrition's Cytolean delivers a unique, patent pending fat loss formula. It contains a proprietary blend of glucuronolactone, green tea extract, phenylalanine, tyrosine, phyenylethylamine, caffeine, evodia rutaecarpa, hordenine, ginkgo biloba and uncaria rhynchophylla (cat's claw). Cytolean works to burn fat, curb appetite and cravings, increase energy levels and promote positive mood.
Caffeine and green tea boost the metabolism, enhance energy levels and promote fat breakdown and thermogenesis (calorie burning). The addition of the plant evodia rutaecarpa promotes energy and reduces body fat by stimulating thermogenesis.
Phenylethylamine and hordenine synergistically stimulate the thyroid, which raises the metabolic rate and increases fat burning. Phenylethylamine, an alkaloid isolated from the botanical acacia rigidula, also enhances mood and feelings of well-being. Hordenine (an alkaloid derived from grains and grasses) induces the release of the neurotransmitter norepinephrine. This stimulates the central nervous system and increases metabolic rate, lipolysis (fat breakdown) and energy levels. The amino acids tyrosine and phenylalanine build neurotransmitter levels in the brain and promote energy, enhance alertness and increase feelings of well being.
Glucuronolactone, a natural metabolite, improves mental performance, concentration and memory. Gingko contains potent bioflavonoid antioxidants (glycosides) and terpene lactones (ginkgolides) that support brain circulation and memory. Cat's claw contains alkaloids and glycosides that have been shown to reduce inflammation and improve immunity.
