Fat Burners guide
FAT BURNERS
Bio-Synergys comprehensive guide to Fat Burners. In this short guide we explain what Fat Burners are and how to use it to your advantage to take your training to the next level.
You need more than weight training and cardio workouts to create a toned, attractive body shape. The final piece of the puzzle is perhaps the most important – your nutrition. A successful weight loss plan must focus on creating a calorie deficit – burning off more energy than you take in. At Bio- Synergy, we believe this should be a gentle, gradual process that includes a nutritionally balanced diet, supported by supplements that make your journey easier and faster.
While losing weight and burning off body fat can be a slow, frustrating process, it’s not impossible. With determination, a smart plan and some help from our expertly developed fat burners and calorie-conscious protein, you can achieve your weight loss goals. Check out our range for all the ways we can help you.

BUT HOW DOES IT WORK?
All the weight training, cardio training and endless sets of reps will not create a lean, toned physique without a well managed nutritional regime. Any fat loss programme needs to include a focus on decreasing caloripic intake while increasing caloripic expenditure (eating less and exercising more).
To burn fat we must create what is known as an ‘energy deficit’ (the result of eating less and exercising more).
When this occurs, your body is forced to break down and use its stored energy (body fat) for fuel to make up for the ‘energy deficit’. This process of releasing and burning stored body fat is called biolysis.
Some natural ingredients work by interacting with certain receptors on fat cells which signal the release of stored fat.
This interaction may help to accelerate the process of lipolysis (or the release of fat to be burned as energy). There is one other factor involved in the fat-loss battle, which is the tendency for your body to slow down its metabolism to compensate for the energy deficit. Simply put, your body is trying to conserve energy (its fat stores) because it thinks that it is starving. This is one reason why some dieters ‘hit the wall’ and seem to plateau once they reach a certain body fat %. To overcome this problem, we can use supplements to ‘rev’ up the metabolism to keep the fat- burning process continuing.
One way to speed the metabolism is through supplements that have thermogenic effects. This term means ‘heat producing’. Taking a thermogenic agent may speed up the metabolism (more calories burned) which results in an elevation of one’s core body temperature. Think of a thermogenic as a heating agent, one that creates similar effects as when you eat spicy foods.
This type of product supports a process called thermogenesis, or the process of burning calories to be released as heat.
There are many substances that provide thermogenic and metabolicenhancing effects. One of the most widely recognised thermogenic substances is caffeine. The caffeine used in thermogenic products is usually pure caffeine in a dried form and may be more potent than that found in coffee.

Developed in 2014 with two-time Olympic Gold Medallist James Cracknell, who wanted a product to help “chop the wood and reduce the timber” he cited that Bradley Wiggins Tour de France victory was in no small part a result of a reduction in body fat whilst maintaining lean muscle mass and power and wanted a product to achieve this.

Calcium has long been associated with energy metabolism. Studies conducted have been able to clearly highlight this.
Zinc like calcium can have beneficial effects on energy metabolism. Reports have shown that individuals tend to have low levels of circulating zinc in their bodies. Therefore, boosting dietary zinc can be beneficial.
Copper is a big player in this formula. Copper not only helps the normal transport of iron in the body but it also protects other cells, contributes to the function of the immune system keeping you fit and healthy.
Chromium has been to shown to reduce sugar cravings & maintain blood sugar levels which can have a positive effect on weight. Supplementing chromium into your diet can reduce fat mass, increase lean body mass and weight loss according to the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.
Green coffee & Green Tea pack a punch when it comes to boosting your metabolism and fat burning. Due to them both containing a source caffeine they are able to increase the overall temperature of your body resulting in more calories being burnt.
Caffeine has long been linked to aiding weight loss. A study by Plantega et al 2005 identified that caffeine supplementation was associated with weight loss through thermogenesis after a 4 week study providing 76 overweight as little as 150 milligrams of caffeine per day.
Cinnamon too, much like chromium, has been shown to help reduce blood sugar levels.
Alpha lipoic acid has been shown to regulate blood sugar levels aiding in weight loss. It is a compound found naturally inside every cell in the body. It’s needed by the body to produce the energy for our body’s normal functions.
Choline is a water-soluble B vitamin that has been shown to help with the metabolism of fat in the body. It is commonly insufficient in everyday diet. It can also improve the cardiovascular function of the body.
