More than just a matter of beauty, being in shape is a matter of both physical and psychological health. Everybody feels more confidence after losing some excessive weight. It is of general knowledge that a diet without proper rules is at the origin of diseases such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, dyslipidemia, or even some types of cancer. These are the diseases that affect most the Portuguese population. We must face the weight loss and fat as a need for over weighted people who or with accumulated abdominal fat. In these situations, the weight loss should be encouraged, and easy solutions should be presented, in order to ensure that people decide to act, to start doing regular exercise, a balanced diet and drink at least 1,5 L of water per day.
CLA
Newsletter #1 | January 2011
Natural Sources in our diet
The animal products are the major sources of natural CLA. These products, such as milk, butter, yoghurt and cheese, contain CLA. However, with the industry processing, a decrease in the amount of CLA is noticed.CLA has an important action in the modelling of the body’s composition, acting in the silhouette, when combined with a healthy lifestyle and balanced diet. The daily intake of CLA from the diet is not sufficient to achieve the desired effect as a silhouette shaper, and supplementation is required. The therapeutic doses of CLA is ranging from 1-2 g/day, and it known that superior dosages from 3,4 g do not offer additional benefits. CLA is normally well tolerated when taken orally.
Scientific studies reveal the effectiveness of CLA in the reduction of fat and the increase of muscular mass. For this reason, in some cases, the accumulated fat can be reduced, without the occurrence of body weight reduction.
Mechanism of actionCLA acts in 2 levels:
CLA is ideal for people who intend to:
- Redefine the silhouette.- Reduce the local fat.- Firming the body.- Lose the body fat and gain muscle mass.
Muscle Cells• CLA increases the activity of Carnitine palmitoyl transferase (CPT).• Responsible for the transport of fatty acids for the interior of mitochondria where they are used in production of energy.• To enhance the activity of the (CPT) in the skeletal muscle, an increase in the production of energy from the fat occurs.
Fat Cells• Decrease of the amount of fat that is stored in the adipocytes. • Increase of the rate of deterioration of fats.• Increase of the rate of metabolism of lipids.• Decrease of the total amount of adipocytes.

DUO Blister
DUO Blister is a recent technological innovation which presents various advantages, when compared with the traditional blisters and has the intention to revolutionize the market. The main objectives of the use of DUO blister are:
In one take, we can obtain a therapeutic dosage described in the scientific studies, since most studies refer to large amounts of the active principles, which, prior to the Duo blister were not possible to obtain galenicaly.
Apart from allowing adapting the dosage schedule for scientific study, the use of Duo blister also presents advantages of pharmaceutical nature, that allow an easy use, wich is a commercial advantage.
Therefore, the use of the Duo Blister:
Allows the administration of active ingredients, whose simultaneous presence in the same pharmaceutical form causes instability or reduction of its action.
Reduces errors in dosage, avoiding mistakes that may result in therapeutic sub-dosage (relating to the lack of efficacy of the product) or over-dosage (in connection with the onset of side effects).
Offers commodity in the intake way
Presents itself as attractive and modern
Allows a distinction when compared to its competition.
Draining – A Pleasant “Goodbye” to toxins and other harmful accumulated substances. We are aware that we live in a contaminated environment (whether through the air, water or alimentation).
A recent study shows that the CLA is equally effective when taken at night. Researchers found that during sleep there is an increase of fat oxidation and release of energy (thermogenic effect), was a result of CLA supplementation. The associating of CLA, at night, with other active ingredients, taken during the day, such as a green tea, L-Carnitine, and others results in a 24 hours slimming effect.
Examples include a blood test done in late 2003, conducted in 39 members of the European parliament, which found 76 industrial toxic products that were accumulated in the their bodies. Among them was the insecticide DDT (Dichloro diphenyl trichloroethone) who’s production is banned in Europe since 1970.
