Weight management Ingredients
Capsimax is a concentrated extract of capsaicinoids from red chili peppers (Capsicum annum)—the naturally occurring compounds that cause the sensation of heat when consuming spicy foods. It is a unique ingredient because it targets several key areas of weight management, including appetite control, lipolysis (breakdown of fat stores), thermogenesis, and resting energy expenditure in a small, daily dose. Capsimax is produced with Omnibead, a controlled release encapsulating technology that delivers effective levels of capsaicinoids without stomach upset that may result from unprotected extracts of red chili peppers. No other brand of encapsulated capsicum on the market delivers all these advantages in a single ingredient:

A multifunctional solution for healthy weight
Capsimax makes weight management easier by targeting multiple key areas in one small dose:
Capsimax can boost resting energy expenditure—the number of calories required by the body at rest and accounts for approximately 60% of calories burned daily.
Capsimax supports lipolysis, especially when exercising. In a clinical study, Capsimax increased the breakdown of stored fat as evident in increased serum levels of free fatty acids and glycerol, which can be used as energy substrates.
A key to maintaining healthy weight is balancing calories consumed and calories expended. When examining its effect on food consumption, Capsimax has been shown to reduce appetite, caloric intake, and the desire to snack.
The waist-to-hip ratio (the proportion of stored fat in the waist and hips) is an important predictor of metabolic health. Higher fat levels in the waist are associated with higher risk of diabetes, hypertension, and CVD. In a clinical study, Capsimax improved body composition by improving the waist-to-hip ratio (i.e., reducing stored fat in the waist).
