LeanFactor is a proprietary formula with a synergistic blend of ingredients important for thyroid function and the addition of lean muscle tissue:
Guggulsterones
Guggul is another name for the plant Commiphora wightii. Clinical research has shown that it can significantly reduce cholesterol and triglycerides while increasing beneficial HDL. Indian research indicates that guggul improves the actions of the thyroid and its hormones.
Coleus forskohlii Extract and Forskolin
Forskolin is the active component of Coleus forskohlii. It works to activate adenylate cyclase which in turn increases the amount of cAMP operating in cells. This increases the ability of cells to respond to signals from thyroid and adrenal hormones. Perhaps the best-researched aspects of forskolin involve its ability to encourage lypolysis. It also inhibits the synthesis of fat in adipocytes (fat cells). The end result is its ability to increase the ratio of lean to fat tissues in the body.
Potassium
Thermogenesis is strongly related to the transport of potassium ions across the cell membrane. A depressed sodium potassium pump will lead to a depressed basal metabolic rate. LeanFactor includes a particularly beneficial source of this mineral, potassium aspartate, which increases energy levels.
