How does activating AMPK support healthy weight management?
AMPK is an enzyme found in every cell in the body that can detect energy levels within the cell. The decline of AMPK levels over time is associated with the accumulation of abdominal fat. Activating youthful AMPK levels encourages cells to burn fat as energy rather than store it.
How can I lose belly fat?
When it comes to undesirable fat deposits, belly fat probably ranks #1. Reducing abdominal fat is also good for your health. Nutrients such as the citrus flavonoid hesperidin or G. pentaphyllum (Jiaogulan) extract can promote activity of an enzyme called AMPK. Activating the AMPK enzyme tells your body to start burning stored fat for energy—and that includes the fat around your abdomen.
What are the best “fat burner” nutrients?
Simply put, the best fat burner is regular exercise. Exercise promotes healthy weight by increasing the calories you burn, both during the exercise itself and while you’re at rest. But if you’re looking for some help, specific nutrients like 7-keto (a metabolite of the DHEA hormone) and green tea can encourage sitting energy expenditure. This may increase the number of calories you burn in a day, giving you that extra edge on your journey to a healthy weight.
