TOXICOoLOGY!!

I'm pretty sure almost everyone dreams of having that sexy body, a body that’s fit, beach body type, having that nice curves and cuts, having a lean body that's almost 0% of body fat!! 6 pack abs, a sexy back and butt... haha

And I admit that I'm one of that everyone who dreams of having that dream body!!

Having this dream body is not easy... you have to work your butt up in the gym, have a strict diet, a healthy lifestyle, and it takes a lot of discipline in achieving this goal!!

Nowadays people want everything fast and instant..

So some people who would like to lose weight in an instant would undergo surgical procedures with Belo, others take steroids which enhances their performance and have that bulky, scary muscles, and some take supplements..

In my case few years ago I found myself unhealthy. So I set up my goal and that is to have a fit and healthy body and have a 0% body fat haha if possible. So after months of working out and doing cardio exercises I still can't achieve having that kind of body so it came to my mind to use thermogenics or commonly known as fat burners.

Thermogenics from its word are supplements which increases the body’s temperature. Therefore it helps in burning calories and fat the same time.

So one time I thought of using hydroxycut a thermogenic supplement which has a fat burning mechanism and at the same time it increases your energy and stamina for workouts, also helps in increasing your metabolism, mental alertness, and reflex activity and decreases your appetite.

And after a few weeks of using this product my weight was still the same but the difference is that I felt leaner and stronger than before and since I love running I can run the oval 5 rounds. So I can say that the results were great and the product really works.

But there comes a time that I’ve found out about the adverse effects of thermogenics in our body if it is being abused. Since the primary component of most thermogenics is ephedrine(which is mostly used to prevent asthma attacks) its side effects would include insomnia, stroke, heart attacks due to increased in blood pressure and heart rate, increased sweating, having head aches, light-headedness, dizziness, feeling jittery and restless which is pretty uncomfortable.

And other thermogenics would include xanthinol nicotinate which side effects includes flushing, nausea, heartburn, itchy skin, and vomiting. Lack of hydration can lead to overheating, with potentially dangerous results.

And even worse are it’s severe side effects which includes severe anxiety and thoughts of suicide have been reported, in combination with burning and tingling sensations on the head, sometimes accompanied with skin that is hot to the touch. The worst of these symptoms usually last approximately an hour, but can take as long as 24 hours to dissipate completely.

And thank God. The great thing about the product I’ve been using is ephedrine free and xantinol nicotinate free..

The main component of these stuff is xenadrine.

The main ingredient of xenadrine are: acetyl tyrosine (an amino acid which is a precursor for a no. of neurotransmitters), green tea extract (antioxidant), phenylethylamine (relieves depression), yerba mate ( consist of caffeine which boost the energy with vitamins, minerals, and 15 a.a.).

So my advice is that before taking any supplements better research first on it’s side effects before using it.. or else nasa huli ang pagsisisi..
