Diet and slimming with fat burners – can it work? Fat burners are special supplements that help reduce fat levels in the body, most often simply by affecting its metabolism. However, can you lose weight with fat burners alone, or is it a good way to lose weight? Is it safe?
Fat burners and diet
A healthy way to lose weight is to start a proper diet along with exercise and physical activity. Fat burners can be a great addition here, but they should not be used as the only way to lose weight. This may have health consequences, and the effects of such weight loss will certainly not be quick, good and satisfactory. Even the strongest fat burners do not give results if a slimming person does not follow the basic principles of a balanced diet and does not practice any sports activity.
So how do fat burners work?
- They add energy and strength to the cannon;
- Increase training opportunities;
- Regulate thyroid hormones;
- They increase the metabolic rate;
- They help to suppress the appetite, so we have less desire for additional snacks.
Fat burners for women and men
On the market you can find special fat burners dedicated to women and men. Those that are dedicated to women more often consist of natural ingredients, e.g. L-carnitine or green coffee. Women will be burdened with less physical effort during exercise, supplements dedicated to them focus more on increasing metabolism and body temperature, rather than on the effect of adding energy. Weight reduction in women and men should, however, primarily rely on the use of an appropriate diet and physical activity matched to your weight and endurance.
Different types of products
Fat burners are often thermogenics that are recommended to women. Products of this type consist of natural substances. Often it is green coffee, caffeine or even aspirin. Other types of fat burners affect the thyroid gland and the hormones it secretes. The substances contained in these products also have an additional effect. They activate enzymes whose task is to “burn fat”, participating in the breakdown of fat cells in our bodies. There are also less commonly used carbohydrate blockers. As the name suggests, they block the absorption of carbohydrates by the body in the digestive process, thanks to which less of them from food will be absorbed by the body.
