Caffeine: A Fat Burning Supplement

Caffeine is one of the most effective weight loss supplements. It is a performance enhancer, and also accelerates the rate at which fat is broken down within the body. This helps burn a higher percentage of calories from fat during exercise. In addition to this, when your body uses fat while exercising, rather then glucose, your glucose levels remain stable. This makes you feel less hungry. Don't just head straight down to the local Starbuck's for a latte however; when it comes to caffeine, you must take the right kind, at the right time, in the right amounts, with the right blend. Caffeine in coffee is actually ineffective for fat burning, because the other ingredients in coffee interfere with its performance enhancing effects. The most effective form of caffeine for weight loss is and herb called guarana. Guarana comes from a tropical plant from the Amazon jungle. Guarana contains a compound nearly identical to caffeine, but is more effective for weight-loss. Unlike caffeine, which produces and energy surge with a sudden rush and quick drop-off, guarana is not readily water-soluble and therefore absorbed less quickly. Guarana's effects are released over a period of hours producing an energy boost that escalates more gradually.
Guarana is most effective in fat burning when combined with white willow bark. This combination naturally elevates energy expenditure (calorie burning) by interfering with prostaglandin production and inhibiting norepinephrine breakdown.
The most effective way to take guarana for weight loss is to ingest 5 mg of per pound of body weight 40 minutes prior to exercise. For best results take a supplement that combines guarana and white willow bark.
