BetaLean HP combines the original ephedrine and caffeine combination along with a unique proprietary formula consisting of L-Tyrosine, Naringin, Coleus Forskohli and Green Tea to enhance the overall thermogenic effect. Additionally, to improve insulin sensitivity, a common problem associated with excess fat accumulation, alpha-lipoic acid has been included. Utilizing Precision Release Matrix™, BetaLean HP delivers 80% of the active constituents initially and the remainder over the following two hours. This technology takes the "edge" off preliminary effects of traditional thermogenics and optimizes the thermogenic effect over the course of the day. When taken in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise program, BetaLean HP is designed to not only increase fat burning but support a healthy metabolic rate; your "total body transformation solution."
Q and A:
Q: How and when should you supplement with BetaLean HP?
A: Using BetaLean HP is simple. For maximum fat burning effects, take one serving of BetaLean HP two times daily about 30 minutes before meals and/or exercise. Do not fast when taking BetaLean HP; it’s designed to be integrated into a comprehensive program of regular exercise and proper nutrition.
If you are working out in the morning, it’s recommended you consume one serving about 30 minutes prior to exercise, then another serving before a mid-afternoon meal. Most people on this type of morning schedule do best by taking their supplements, including ephedrine-containing supplements, 30 minutes prior to exercise. Doing this in conjunction with cardiovascular exercise seems to be best for optimal fat loss.
If you workout during the afternoon, researchers recommend you take one serving in the morning before breakfast and another before you workout. If you prefer to workout in the evenings, it’s recommended you take one serving in the morning and one serving in the mid-afternoon, both 30 minutes prior to meals. Be sure to stay properly hydrated and drink plenty of water when using any thermogenic supplement, including BetaLean HP.
Q: Is there anyone who should not take BetaLean HP?
A: Do not take BetaLean HP if you have any type of heart disease, high blood pressure, thyroid disease, diabetes, enlarged prostate, or if you are taking MAO-inhibitor drugs for depression or appetite suppression. In addition, people should not use ephedrine-containing products in combination with any other ephedrine group alkaloid or caffeine alkaloid or other ingredients that have a known stimulant effect. Such products may include prescription or over-the-counter drugs or weight-control and certain dietary supplements and herbal or botanical products that have a stimulant effect. Most important, you should never exceed the recommended serving of these products. The reason some people experience side effects from using these compounds is likely because they take much more than the recommended serving. These compounds are strong and should be used with caution, so, as always, check with your physician before starting any supplement or training program. Check out the warning to the left for further information.
Q: How will BetaLean HP affect my sleep? Will it keep me up at night?
A: EAS product designers considered this when they developed BetaLean HP release pattern. As such, the release pattern is programmed to allow the stimulatory effects of the ephedra to dissipate after about three to four hours. With this in mind, BetaLean HP should not interrupt sleep so long as it’s not taken within four hours of bedtime.
Q: What is contained in BetaLean HP?
A: Each serving of BetaLean HP contains an ample amount of L-tyrosine (500 mg), a precursor to the critical neurotransmitters epinephrine and dopamine required for fat burning; 20 mg of ephedrine alkaloids, which studies have shown increased thermogenesis (the burning of fat to produce heat); and 150 mg of caffeine, which works synergistically with ephedrine to amplify the thermogenic effects. Each serving also contains 50 mg of a compound called coleus forskohli, which can effectively block the breakdown of key chemical messengers responsible for optimal fat burning; 100 mg of naringin, which has been shown to extend the half-life of caffeine, thus prolonging the thermogenic effect; and 100 mg of alpha-lipoic acid, which allows the body to divert glucose into muscle tissue and away from being deposited into fat cells. Last, BetaLean HP contains 300 mg of standardized green tea, which studies have shown reduces blood glucose levels and may contribute to thermogenesis in some people.
Q: Is using BetaLean HP a good way to lose fat without having to exercise or pay attention to proper eating habits?
A: No. A “fat burner” is not the key to fat loss. Any successful fat-loss program must be centered on decreasing calorie intake and/or increasing calorie expenditure through regular exercise and proper nutrition. Now, this isn’t to say certain “metabolic-support” supplements, like BetaLean HP, won’t help support fat burning. Clinical studies suggest thermogenic supplements can make a difference, but they work best if you are working out regularly and following a structured nutrition plan.
Q: What makes BetaLean HP different from other thermogenic fat loss products on the market today?
A: BetaLean HP combines a unique blend of ingredients that deal with multiple pathways in the fat loss process. BetaLean HP also utilizes a Precision Release Matrix that consistently delivers 80% of the active constituents initially and the remainder over the following two hours. BetaLean HP's "next generation" delivery system helps take the "edge" off of stimulants like ephedrine.
Q: Do I have to take BetaLean HP every day?
A: The simple answer is no, and here’s why. There is a process known as "tachyphalaxis," and it’s a good process to understand when talking about the optimal use of ephedrine. Tachyphalaxis is what the medical community calls it when you become numb to the stimulation of a substance. In other words, when individuals who are chronically exposed to substances over time, they become less sensitive (or more immune) to it.
Well, ephedrine is no exception. One of the best ways to avoid building up a "resistance" to BetaLean HP is by taking breaks between cycles of use. By taking a break every five days, with two days off, and then a longer break of two weeks after no more than 12 continuous weeks of use, your body will regenerate its receptors.
Q: Can I use BetaLean HP in the Body-for-LIFE Challenge?
A: Yes. Although ephedrine containing products were not allowed in challenges from 2000, the current 2001 Body-for-LIFE Challenge allows the use of BetaLean HP. Also, Phen-Free is a non-ephedrine alternative for those people who are looking for effective ways to enhance their fat burning efforts stimulant-free.
