Boost Fitness, Health, and Happiness with Three Proven Ingredients

Boost Fitness, Health, and Happiness with Three Proven Ingredients

Living a healthier, fitter, and happier life is a universal goal, and science-backed ingredients can play a vital role in helping you achieve it. Among the most researched ingredients for wellness are GreenSelect® green tea phytosome, KSM-66® Ashwagandha, and Chromax® chromium. Each of these ingredients has been shown to contribute to physical fitness, mental health, and overall vitality and happiness.

1. GreenSelect® Green Tea Phytosome

GreenSelect® green tea phytosome is a patented, caffeine-free green tea extract formulated with lecithin to enhance the bioavailability of its polyphenols by 3X, particularly epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG).

Key Benefits

  • Weight Loss: Participants taking GreenSelect® combined with a reduced-calorie diet lost three times more weight than the placebo group over 90 days, averaging 30.2 pounds (13.7 kg) compared to 10.3 pounds (4.7 kg).¹
  • Metabolic Syndrome Recovery: Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of conditions—high blood pressure, elevated blood sugar, abnormal cholesterol levels, and central obesity—that together increase the risk of heart disease, diabetes, and stroke. In a 24-week study, a stunning 68% of participants no longer met the criteria for metabolic syndrome, compared to only 20% in the lifestyle-only group.²
  • Lipid and Blood Pressure Improvements: The same study showed significant reductions in LDL cholesterol, total cholesterol, systolic blood pressure, and diastolic blood pressure in the GreenSelect® group.²
  • Antioxidant Support: Catechins in GreenSelect® reduce oxidative stress, supporting cardiovascular and metabolic health.²

2. KSM-66® Ashwagandha

KSM-66® is a highly bioavailable, full-spectrum Ashwagandha extract renowned for its adaptogenic properties, aiding in stress reduction and overall well-being.

Key Benefits:

  • Stress Reduction: Participants taking 300 mg of KSM-66® twice daily experienced a 27.9% reduction in cortisol levels, improving mood and resilience.³
  • Enhanced Strength and Stamina: A clinical trial found a 13.6% increase in muscle strength and 9.8% improvement in VO2 max for participants using KSM-66®.⁴
  • Improved Sleep: KSM-66® supplementation improved sleep efficiency by 28% and reduced insomnia symptoms by 32%.³
  • Improved Female Sexual Satisfaction: A randomized, placebo-controlled study found that KSM-66® improved sexual satisfaction, arousal, and desire in women, with significant increases in Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) scores compared to placebo.⁵

3. Chromax® Chromium

Chromax® is a patented form of chromium picolinate developed by Nutrition21, clinically proven to support glucose metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and energy levels.

Key Benefits:

  • Improved Insulin Sensitivity: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial demonstrated that Chromax® significantly improved insulin sensitivity in adults with metabolic syndrome, measured by a 24% improvement in the Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) compared to baseline.⁶
  • Blood Sugar Regulation: Participants experienced a fasting glucose reduction of 0.4 mmol/L compared to placebo.⁶
  • Appetite Control: Chromax® supplementation has been shown to reduce hunger levels and cravings, supporting healthier eating habits and weight management.⁷
  • Mood Enhancement: Chromax® reduced depressive symptoms by 17.6%, attributed to its role in stabilizing blood sugar levels.⁷

Synergistic Benefits

GreenSelect®, KSM-66®, and Chromax® complement each other to create a powerful synergy. GreenSelect® promotes fat oxidation, Chromax® stabilizes blood sugar to prevent cravings, and KSM-66® reduces cortisol to combat stress-related weight gain. Together, they amplify weight loss and improve overall physical and emotional well-being, providing results far beyond what each ingredient can achieve individually.

Conclusion

GreenSelect® green tea phytosome, KSM-66® Ashwagandha, and Chromax® chromium are scientifically validated ingredients that can help you achieve a fitter, healthier, and happier life. Their combined benefits target key areas of wellness, making them a powerful trio for anyone striving to enhance their quality of life.

*Fifty overweight people (BMI 28-36) using a key ingredient in ZipSlim®, along with a lower calorie diet (1350 calories for women/1850 calories for men), lost 30 pounds in just 13 weeks, compared to just 10 pounds for those following the lower calorie diet alone.
