There are hundreds of different fat burning supplements, but how can you tell which are best? Well that is easy, you can tell by the ingredients. Just like with protein powders, pre workouts, and more, it depends on the ingredients that are in the actual product. Let’s take a look at the ingredient breakdown found in Cellucor’s Super HD:
IFAS503™
IFAS503™ is a novel ingredient comprised of three Fatty Acid Synthase (FAS) inhibitors: Camellia sinensis extract, Tuber Fleeceflower extract and Chinese Mistletoe extract.*
Fatty acid synthase is regulated by insulin and glucose. Fatty acids once produced are esterified and stored in fat cells as an oily substance called triacylglycerol.
Inhibiting FAS may interrupt this process and reduce the body’s ability to store fat.* In addition, several clinical trials suggest inhibiting FAS also exerts numerous indirect properties particularly on hypothalamic neurons, which may help support a healthy appetite level.*
CAPSIMAX™
Capsimax™ is a patent-pending encapsulated form of premium, highly concentrated natural capsicum extract. Using a proprietary matrix of excipients and coatings, Capsimax™ capsicum extract gives users the maximum effectiveness of capsaicinoids while reducing the chance of oral or gastric irritation, thus erasing the negative side effects of traditional capsicum supplementation.*
In several clinical trials Capsimax™ capsicum was suggested to help increase diet-induced thermogenesis, manage appetite and support healthy body composition.*
TOOTHED CLUBMOSS [AERIAL PARTS](1% HUPERZINE A)
Toothed Clubmoss is a natural source of Huperzine A, an active compound which may help support memory, learning, and concentration.*
Huperzine’s effectiveness may be attributed to its ability to strongly inhibit acetylcholinesterase, the enzyme that breaks down acetylcholine in the brain. By inhibiting the enzyme that breaks it down, more acetylcholine may become available to stimulate neurons, supporting several of the brain’s functions.*
RHODIOLA
Rhodiola is a natural adaptogen, a compound that promotes mental energy, endurance and focus while providing support against mild stress.*
Rhodiola may also have several positive effects on exercise output. In recent studies, Rhodiola has been suggested to promote fatty acid utilization and improve body resistance to strenuous physical exercise.*
RAUWOLISCINE
Rauwoliscine is alpha-yohimbine, an analogue of yohimbine. Rauwoliscine amplifies energy levels and supports the body’s fat-burning process.* Alpha-yohimbine has a more targeted effect than yohimbine without the side effects.*
PAUSINYSTALIA YOHIMBE EXTRACT
Yohimbe Bark Extract is the extract of the African Yohimbe tree. Yohimbe may help promote dopamine, decrease serotonin, and prevent the breakdown of norepinephrine in the body.* Yohimbe may help support a prolonged adrenaline-like responses in the body.*
Yohimbe may act as an adrenergic receptor agonist, inducing fight or flight responses in the body such as increased heart rate and lipolysis.* Yohimbe also supports vasodilation, which may help promote blood flow to the muscles and oxygen use by the body.*
N-ACETYL-L-TYROSINE
N-Acetyl-L-tyrosine is a more rapidly absorbed and bio-available form of L-Tyrosine.* L-Tyrosine is an amino acid precursor to the adrenal and growth hormones epinephrine, dopamine and norepinephrine.* These hormones support growth hormone release, and may help contribute to higher energy levels, awareness, and mental alertness.*
CAFFEINE
Caffeine is a powerful psychoactive stimulant. Caffeine stimulates the central nervous system, warding off fatigue and promotes increased alertness and energy levels.*
AMLA FRUIT EXTRACT
Amla Fruit Extract, also known as Indian Gooseberry, contains several active compounds that support mental energy and memory.*
DANDELION EXTRACT
Dandelion Extract is a natural diuretic.* In addition to its possible health-supporting benefits, dandelion contains powerful diuretic compounds called taraxasterols that increase the secretion of excess water.*
EVODIAMINE
Evodiamine is a plant extract that may help limit fat storage, support metabolism, and promote positive energy.* Evodiamine supports body heat production and raises resting core temperature, increasing the calories and fat that are burned for energy.* Evodiamine is a mild diuretic.*
NIACINAMIDE
Niacinamide is a water-soluble B-complex vitamin. Niacin, or nicotinic acid, also known as Vitamin B-3, supports joint mobility, muscle strength, and nervous system function.* Niacinamide helps decrease muscular fatigue and increase maximal muscle working capacity.*
PYRIDOXAL PHOSPHATE
Pyridoxal Phosphate, commonly known as P5P, is the active Form of Vitamin B6. P5P does not require any conversion in the liver and is therefore a preferable supplement form of this nutrient. Vitamin B6 supports several bodily functions including energy metabolism, neurotransmitter functions and muscle growth and repair.*
VITAMIN B12
Methylcobalamin is a form of Vitamin B12, an essential B-vitamin. Vitamin B12 supports cellular metabolism and energy production and aids in the production of fatty acids—broken down fats that are then easily burned.* Vitamin B12 also supports healthy nervous system function and blood formation.*
So basically a lot of B vitamins, caffeine, tyrosine, etc are found in this product. The ingredients found in this product does help promote fat loss.
