"If you're struggling to maintain healthy body weight, you're not alone.
Up to 65% of Americans face the same challenge. Even a modest increase
in fat pounds can have an impact on overall health, especially when
it's stubborn belly or visceral fat. The problem is that conventional
methods to combat age-related changes that predispose to weight gain
have proven ineffective. Adjustments in diet and lifestyle alone are
often not enough.
To help maturing individuals deal effectively with this serious health
issue, Life Extension introduces a new, clinically validated solution:
Advanced Anti-Adipocyte Formula with AdipoStat and Integra-Lean African
Mango Irvingia. After careful scientific analysis of over 1,000 plant
extracts, researchers identified the two species included in AdipoStat
that target adipocytes: Sphaeranthus indicus flower and the mangosteen
fruit (Garcinia mangostana). Optimal results were shown in studies when
these two plant extracts were combined.
Through multiple pathways, AdipoStat targets the mechanisms by which
fat-storing cells or adipocytes become bloated and metabolically
dysfunctional. This widely overlooked cellular condition leads to excess
fat accumulations in the belly and throughout the body.
AdipoStat functions via the following mechanisms to support healthy body weight.2
1.AdipoStat targets adipocyte (fat cell) creation.
2.AdipoStat impedes adipocyte growth (adipogenesis).
3.AdipoStat induces fat in adipocytes to break down (lipolysis).
AdipoStat's performance in clinical studies indicates it can safely
deliver impressive results. In a key study, 30 adults with difficulty
maintaining healthy body weight ingested 800 milligrams per day of
AdipoStat while following a 2,000 calorie per day diet and were asked to
walk just 30 minutes five days a week. A group of equal size was given
placebo. After just eight weeks, the AdipoStat group:
– Lost 4.05 inches of harmful belly fat 2.0 times the amount lost by the placebo group.
– Experienced a 2.05 drop in body mass index (BMI) 3.9 times over placebo.
– Shed 11.4 pounds of total body weight 3.7 times over placebo.
These improvements began to emerge after just 14 days. After eight
weeks, the AdipoStat group saw a noticeable drop in waist-to-hip ratio,3
indicating they experienced fat loss in the abdominal area, where
excess fat mass is associated with serious health issues. They also
exhibited favorably elevated levels of a hormone called adiponectin.2
Adiponectin sends command signals that determine how big your fat cells
get, how much they break down (lipolysis), and how often they are
produced (adipogenesis).4
A second human clinical trial yielded similar results, confirming AdipoStat's beneficial effects.
