Hello:biglaugh:

anyone has used or try this stuff? that's looks impressive and powerful but seems the only company has it it`s LEF and for the proper run is expensive so any toughs maybe for bulk and good quality?

Weight Management: Reversing Leptin Resistance
Fat cells produce C-reactive protein, a pro-inflammatory compound that leads to “leptin resistance.” Overweight people given Irvingia have lower levels of CRP, and therefore less CRP is able to block the activity of leptin. Leptin is important in weight management because it promotes the breakdown of fat in adipocytes and tells the brain to turn off chronic hunger messages.

Hormones: Increasing Adiponectin
Large fat cells secrete less adiponectin, and adiponectin is a crucial hormone that helps support insulin sensitivity as well as cardiovascular health. Overweight people given Irvingia show markedly increased adiponectin levels.

Body Fat: Inhibiting the Fat Converting Enzyme
An enzyme called glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase facilitates the conversion of glucose into triglycerides that increase adipocyte size. Irvingia inhibits glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, thus reducing the amount of glucose (sugar) that is converted to fat in the body.

Diet: Reducing Carbohydrate Absorption
In order for carbohydrates to be fully absorbed, they must be broken down in the digestive tract by the amylase enzyme. Irvingia inhibits amylase, and thus reduces the amount of ingested starches that will be absorbed as sugar.

I have researched this stuff in the past. Not many companies out there want to bring it to market due to the cost... probably the best thing I have seen in a very long time.

LEF carries it and you can find it on some sites for about 20 bucks. It looks like this would work best over a long period, like an extra edge for someone who eats right and exercise, maybe even staple for long term weight management.

LEF has a product with it but is underdosed in the study the dayly dose was 3g day (1g three times a day)

from the study: one-half hour before meals (a total daily amount of 3.15 g of Irvingia
gabonensis seed extract)

Was that the study with the 10:1 extract? If so it is far from under dosing from my limited reading. Again though I might be talking about a different study.

I was ready to buy some more fat loss stuff then I just realized maybe I should just save my pennies to afford an online diet specialist/trainer which should go further in the long run.

plus Insea 2

InSea2™ [proprietary composition of demineralized polyphenols from brown seaweeds Kelp (Ascophyllum nodosum) and Bladderwrack (Fucus vesiculosus)] 125 mg

Irvingia Gabonesis + Fucoxanthin 10%=BOMB!!!

Did you use any other supps?
I use a stimulant usually and some gear with an anti-e... Not really anything else I can think of. Depending on the day/time/diet mode I throw in other things like alcar, taurine or ASGT 1-2 times a week

Actually trying nicotine gum for fat loss as well

Really why not sir?
I am all for companies backing their products with studies, and while i realize this sounds hypocritical, i don't put much stock into the studies conducted by the company pushing IG. I remember reading a while back about the guy in charge of the studies being on the payroll for the company. It just looks a little shady.

That said, i am more than willing to re-assess based on some solid empircal feedback. I've just never seen any.

I can agree with that somewhat. But we also have to realize that each study is done because someone has something to gain. If we dismiss such, then 99% of studies done will have to be dismissed due to major pharma being conspirators in such. I personally believe LEF is about as stand up a company we can find in this industry. While some information can sound far stretched alot of what LEF does is what the B side of the industry aspires to.
