Breaking the Cycle of Weight Gain with Trim 7

The cycle of weight gain is affected by the choices you make on an everyday basis. In a previous blog, we discussed the role of nutrition and how poor diets and eating habits are key factors that drive weight gain. These unhealthy habits initiate a chain of events in your body (e.g., biological cycle of weight gain), which may become progressively worse over time unless the cycle is broken (Figure 1).

On the other hand, healthy habits, such as a nutritious diet, mindful eating techniques, and exercise, break the cycle of weight gain and are the cornerstones of weight management. Supplements, including certain plant extracts, antioxidants, and vitamins found in Trim 7, may also be helpful to break the cycle as explained next (steps 1-4):

1. BODY FAT GAIN. Excess sugars and fats from your diet are absorbed from your gut, which stimulate hormone release (read more about carbs, fats, insulin, and insulin resistance here). This causes fat from your food to be stored rather than broken down for energy, leading to your fat cells to swell in size and your waistline to increase.
   Trim 7 impact:  Natural polyphenols (CGA and EGCG), caffeine, and cAMP enhancers from green tea, green coffee, (all found within Trim 7) and mint (forskolin) decrease fat absorption and enhance fat breakdown.
2. CELL DAMAGE. When fat cells swell in size, they overproduce highly reactive chemicals called reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS are mainly released by the ‘furnaces’ of your cells, called mitochondria (basic and advanced videos on mitochondria), when making energy. Excess ROS may damage your cells and even the mitochondria themselves.
   Trim 7 impact:  Trim 7 is loaded with Antioxidants (polyphenols, CoQ10, and α-lipoic acid) and vitamins (vitamin E) which act in concert to scavenge and neutralize ROS and cell damage.
3. Progressive buildup of cell damage leads to release of pro-inflammatory factors into your bloodstream that may cause chronic activation of your immune system and inflammation.
   Trim 7 impact:  Antioxidants, polyphenols, and vitamins within Trim 7 dampen inflammation by mitigating damage and immune activation.
4. METABOLIC IMPAIRMENT. With body fat, cell damage, and inflammation building up, your metabolism (ability to make energy from food) is gradually impaired and the cycle of weight gain worsens over time.
   Trim 7 impact: Antioxidants, polyphenols, and vitamins within Trim 7 protect from damage, enhance the ability of the mitochondria to make energy and ultimately improve your metabolism.
