Antaeus Labs are proud to present LipoMorph, a weight-management supplement at the cutting edge of scientific understanding of human physiology. LipoMorph is the first “fat burner” supplement to specifically target all known modifiable mechanisms of white fat browning, and both brown and beige fat activation.

White Fat
Ordinary white fat stores energy in the form of fat droplets, one droplet per adipocyte, which can be broken down by lipolysis into free fatty acids which are circulated into the blood stream and transported to the fuel-requiring tissue where they undergo beta-oxidation to acetyl-CoA which can be used to generate energy through the Krebs cycle. The energy stored in white fat, when liberated, is primarily burned to produce ATP to power cells.
Unfortunately, modern Western diet and lifestyle habits (consisting of excessive caloric intake typically coupled with insufficient physical activity) can cause an excessive accumulation of both subcutaneous and visceral white adipose tissue (WAT) that can have numerous adverse effects on health and health markers.

Brown Fat
Brown fat is a thermogenic tissue that turns energy (stored as triglycerides) into heat. It’s found in abundance in hibernating mammals. When the temperature drops, animals like bears “go to sleep for the winter”. They’re able to survive by burning reserves of energy which have been stored as white and brown fat. The heat produced by the brown fat, which is activated by the cold, maintains the essential core body temperature of the animal through the winter months.
It’s also found in high quantities in babies, but is present in much smaller amounts in adult humans.
Unlike adults, babies are unable to regulate their own temperature by, say, putting on a coat or moving to a warmer room, so their ability to regulate their own temperature is more vital to their survival. Accordingly, they have greater amounts of brown fat which is widely distributed viscerally and subcutaneously, decreasing as age increases until as adults brown fat is largely limited to small deposits in the lower neck and supraclavicular region. These deposits are suspected to be useful in cold weather for warming blood as it flows to the brain. Brown fat appears brown in color because of the high density of mitochondria and excellent blood supply. Certain natural conditions, like endurance exercise and cold temperatures, can encourage the human body to produce and/or activate brown fat.
Thermogenesis in brown fat is mediated by thermogenin, also known as uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1). UCP1 is specific to the mitochondria of brown fat, and functions as a proton transporter, uncoupling oxidative phosphorylation from ATP synthesis and allowing the resulting energy to dissipate in the form of heat. The thermogenic effect of UCP1 is known as “non-shivering thermogenesis”.

Beige fat
In addition to classical brown fat, which originates from the same progenitor cells as muscle tissue, brown-like fat expressing the same thermogenic genes as brown fat can be made from regular mature white fat cells and their precursors. This brown-from-white fat is variously termed “brite” or “beige” fat, and the process of its creation known as “browning” of white fat. Whereas excessive white adipose tissue (WAT) impairs health, the recruitment and activation of brown and beige adipose tissue is currently being investigated as being potentially beneficial in the fight against obesity and metabolic disorders.

Regulators of brown and beige fat

Natural regulators of brown and beige fat include external conditions like cold temperatures, and exercise, as well as internal mechanisms like thyroid hormones, beta-adrenergic hormones, retinoids, PPARγ and PPARα agonists, and the liver X receptor.


Exercise and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors
Exercise has a number of positive health benefits, particularly regular, sustained aerobic exercise. One of the mediators of the positive metabolic effects of endurance exercise is peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha (PGC-1α). PGC-1α is a transcriptional coactivator that binds to and activates transcription factors that regulate the genes involved in energy metabolism. It has a number of functions in the body, including influencing muscle fiber type determination, controlling lactate metabolism, and increasing amino acid breakdown in response to exercise stimulus.

One of the products of amino acid breakdown in muscle tissue is β-aminoisobutyric acid (BAIBA), arising from the degradation of thymine and valine. BAIBA is believed to act as a messenger signalling molecule, released into the blood stream by exercise, that helps the body respond to demands for more energy by increasing β-oxidation of fatty acids.
It’s also recently been discovered that BAIBA can induce white adipose tissue (WAT) to express brown fat-specific genes – including the all-important thermogenic UCP1.


β-aminoisobutyric acid

What is it?
BAIBA is a naturally occurring amino acid, a product of the metabolism of thymine and valine. [SUP][1][/SUP][SUP][2][/SUP]
Levels of BAIBA are increased significantly by endurance exercise, a result of PGC1α-mediated amino acid breakdown. [SUP][3][/SUP]


Target(s):

  • BAIBA exerts its effects on hepatocytes (liver cells) and white adipocytes (fat cells) through PPARalpha (PPARα). [SUP][4][/SUP] PPARα regulates the use of fat as a source of energy. [SUP][5][/SUP]
Research summary:

  • Activation of PPARα in the liver and adipose tissue promotes lipolysis and beta oxidation of fatty acids. [SUP][5][/SUP]
  • PPARα activation stimulates white fat cell precursors to differentiate into beige/brite adipocytes. [SUP][4][/SUP]
  • PPARα agonism also induces mature white adipocytes to develop a beige/brite phenotype. [SUP][4][/SUP]
  • PPARα agonists increase UCP-1 mRNA levels in brown fat. [SUP][6][/SUP]
  • PPARα agonism in the small intestine is thought to be involved in the regulation of satiety (lack of hunger). [SUP][7][/SUP][SUP][8][/SUP]
  • Coadministered PPARα and β3 adrenoceptor agonists may have a synergistic effect on the browning of white fat and UCP1-mediated thermogenesis. [SUP][9][/SUP]
  • BAIBA induces human stem cells, under conditions that would normally result in white adipocyte differentiation, instead to express brown-fat specific genes like UCP-1. [SUP][4][/SUP]
  • BAIBA induced increased expression of brown/beige fat-specific genes in an in vivo experiment on mice. [SUP][4][/SUP]
  • BAIBA levels are increased after endurance exercise, and may be responsible for some of the metabolic benefits of exercise. [SUP][4][/SUP]
  • BAIBA increases hepatic fatty acid oxidation and decreases fat mass in mice [SUP][10][/SUP]
  • Some of the fat-loss effects of thymine-based prescription drugs in humans may be due to an increase in utilization of free fatty acids resulting from the production of BAIBA as a metabolite. [SUP][10][/SUP]
  • Rats and mice treated with BAIBA and other PPARα agonists lose more body fat and gain less body weight than control animals. [SUP][11][/SUP][SUP][7][/SUP][SUP][9][/SUP][SUP][10][/SUP][SUP][4][/SUP]

Cold Temperatures and beta-adrenergic hormones

The thermogenic effects of brown fat can be activated in several ways; in hibernating animals and babies the trigger is cold temperatures. Cold temperatures trigger a release of norepinephrine into the blood stream, an adrenergic hormone which has several important roles, one of which is to activate brown fat via the beta-3 adrenergic receptor (β[SUB]3[/SUB] adrenoreceptor).
Unlike other beta adrenergic receptors, which are widely distributed about the body, being found in cardiac tissue, skeletal and smooth muscle, and adipose tissue, distribution of β[SUB]3[/SUB] receptors are restricted to a few tissues – including brown fat, where activation increases energy expenditure.
Brown fat also expresses heat-sensing receptors of its own. The receptor that detects cold temperatures is the cold and menthol receptor 1 (CMR1), more formally known as the transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 8 (TRPM8).The transient receptor potential channels (TRPs) help the peripheral nervous system detect important variations in temperature; TRPV1 detects and regulates heat, but can also be activated by things like capsaicin (which is why chili peppers taste hot), and TRPM8 detects cold but can also be activated by compounds like menthol (which is why peppermint tastes cold).

Thermogenesis in brown fat can be triggered by TRPM8 activation or norepinephrine release (β[SUB]3[/SUB] adrenoreceptor agonism). Human white adipose tissue also expresses the cold-sensing receptor TRPM8, which, when activated, transdifferentiates to a brown-like phenotype expressing UCP-1.


Octopamine

What is it?
Octopamine is a naturally-occurring endogenous amine found in plants such as bitter orange as well as vertebrates and invertebrates. [SUP][12][/SUP][SUP][13][/SUP]


Target(s):

  • Octopamine is a selective agonist of the mammalian beta-3 adrenergic receptor (β3 adrenoreceptor). [SUP][14][/SUP][SUP][15][/SUP]
  • Beta-3-adrenoceptor agonism is one of the primary regulators of brown fat activation and beige fat recruitment. [SUP][16][/SUP]
Research summary:

  • Beta-3-adrenoceptor activation is believed to be required for the transdifferentiation of mature white fat cells into brite/beige adipocytes. [SUP][16][/SUP]
  • Octopamine stimulates lipolysis in white fat cells and increased oxidation in brown fat cells in several mammal species. [SUP][15][/SUP]
  • Octopamine stimulates fatty acid oxidation in the liver, which may help prevent free fatty acids being reabsorbed into adipocytes. [SUP][17][/SUP]
Menthol

What is it?
(−)-Menthol is a naturally-occurring compound found in wild mint and peppermint.


Target(s):

  • Menthol is an agonist of the TRPM8 receptor, also known as the cold and menthol receptor.
  • TRPM8 activation triggers thermogenesis in brown fat by mimicking long-term cold exposure. [SUP][18][/SUP]
  • Menthol is also an agonist of transient receptor potential A1 (TRPA1) in humans, [SUP][19][/SUP] another thermosensitive (cold-sensing) receptor that has been linked to brown fat activation in animal models. [SUP][20][/SUP]
Research summary:

  • Dietary menthol induced non-shivering thermogenesis in mice without influencing metabolic markers such as heart rate or thyroid hormone levels. [SUP][18][/SUP]
  • Human white adipose tissue also expresses the cold-sensing receptor TRPM8, which, when activated by menthol, transdifferentiates to a brown-like phenotype expressing UCP-1. [SUP][21][/SUP]
  • A human clinical trial is currently recruiting participants to determine the metabolic effects of menthol. [SUP][22][/SUP]

Retinoids and LXR



Ilex Kudingcha Extract


What is it?
Ilex Kudingcha (Ilex kaushue) is a species of the holly genus of plants. In China the leaves are dried and brewed into a tea called Kuding. The bitter-tasting Kuding tea has been used for millennia as a traditional chinese medicine (TCM) for a variety of ailments.


Target(s):


  • Kuding has the ability to suppress the activity of the Liver X Receptor beta (LXRβ) through antagonist activity. [SUP][23][/SUP]
  • LXRβ antagonism results in decreased transcriptional activity of the enzyme sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1c (SREBP-1c), which is required for lipogenesis. [SUP][24][/SUP]
Research summary:

  • LXRβ is believed to be a regulator (repressor) of UCP-1 activity. [SUP][25][/SUP]
  • LXRβ antagonism may cause UCP1 transcription to be activated through an increase in PGC1α expression. [SUP][25][/SUP]
Vitamin A


What is it?
One of the forms of vitamin A is retinol. This animal-derived retinoid is essential for healthy skin, bone, and teeth. The main active metabolite of vitamin A is retinoic acid.


Target(s):

  • Retinoic acid binds to and activates the retinoic acid receptor (RAR).
  • The vitamin A metabolite 9-cis-retinoic acid is an endogenous ligand of the retinoid X receptor (RXR)
Research summary:

  • Retinoic acid activates transcription of uncoupling protein-1 (UCP-1) both in vitro and in vivo. [SUP][26][/SUP][SUP][27][/SUP]
  • Retinoic acid is necessary for induction of human UCP1 by beta-adrenergic agonists. [SUP][28][/SUP]
  • Retinal (retinaldehyde), another retinol metabolite, induces browning of white fat through activation of the retinoic acid receptor (RAR). [SUP][29][/SUP]

Other regulators of beige and brown fat



Fucoxanthin

What is it?
Fucoxanthin is a naturally-occurring xanthophyll found in brown algae and edible seaweed.



Target(s):
Some of fucoxanthin’s putative anti-obesity effects may be via downregulation of PPAR-γ. [SUP][30][/SUP]


Research summary:

  • Fucoxanthin increases the metabolic rate, induces the browning of white fat, and upregulates UCP1 (thermogenin) expression in mice. [SUP][31][/SUP]
  • Mice fed a high fat diet and supplemental fucoxanthin had increased expression of β3-adrenergic receptor mRNA in white fat tissue. [SUP][32][/SUP]
  • In in vitro experiments, fucoxanthin and its metabolites suppress adipogenesis via downregulation of PPAR-γ. [SUP][30][/SUP]
  • Fucoxanthin increases phosphorylation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) and decreases the expression of SREBP1c in mouse adipose tissue, promoting β-oxidation of fatty acids and reducing lipogenesis [SUP][33][/SUP]
  • A human study on obese non-diabetic women given a commercial product containing fucoxanthin and pomegranate seed oil found that it increase the resting energy expenditure of the participants and promoted weight loss. [SUP][34][/SUP]
Stearoyl Vanillylamide

What is it?
Stearoyl vanillylamide is a naturally-occurring capsaicin analogue found in red pepper species. Capsaicin is responsible for the hot/burning feeling caused by chili peppers. Unlike capsaicin, stearoyl vanillylamide is nonpungent, meaning it does not impart the “spicy” or irritative effects of capsaicin.


Target(s):
Stearoyl vanillylamide, capsaicin and similar compounds activate the transient receptor potential cation channel V1 (TRPV1).


Research summary:

  • TRPV1 activation stimulates the release of catecholamines such as adrenaline and noradrenaline from the adrenal medulla. [SUP][35][/SUP] Noradrenaline is a major regulator of brown fat activation, through β3 adrenoreceptor activation.
  • Nonpungent capsaicin analogs have been demonstrated to activate brown adipose tissue and increase energy expenditure in a human clinical trial. [SUP][36][/SUP]
  • A systematic review of human clinical trials observed that regular consumption of capsaicinoids increased energy expenditure, and significantly reduced abdominal adipose tissue levels. [SUP][37][/SUP]
  • Chronic TRPV1 activation by dietary TRPV1 agonists can increase phosphorylated levels of protein kinase A (PKA) and endothelial NO synthase (eNOS), causing peripheral vasodilation and a decrease in blood pressure in hypertensive rats. [SUP][38][/SUP]
  • The oral administration of TRPV1 agonists prevents adipogenesis and obesity in mice fed a high-fat diet. [SUP][39][/SUP]
  • Stearoyl vanillylamide increased lipolysis and oxidation of free fatty acids in rats, resulting in increased capacity for exercise [SUP][40][/SUP]
  • Some non-pungent capsinoids have also been found to activate TRPA1, another receptor that may be involved in cold detection. [SUP][41][/SUP]

Lipomorph: 5 reasons why BETA is BETTER


  • Beta-aminoisobutyric acid
Antaeus Labs LipoMorph is the only supplement to contain this exciting new ingredient that is believed to function as an exercise mimetic and fat browning agent.

  • Beta-oxidation
In addition to liberating fatty acids from fat cells through lipolysis, LipoMorph ingredients stimulate beta-oxidation to prevent free fatty acids being reabsorbed into adipocytes.

  • Beta-3-adrenoceptors
Octopamine is one of the only known selective agonists of the mammalian beta-3 adrenergic receptor (β3 adrenoreceptor). β3 adrenoreceptors on adipocytes are key activators of brown and beige fat potential.

  • Liver X Receptor Beta (LXRβ)
The Kuding in LipoMorph suppresses lipogenesis through antagonism of LXRβ.

  • Beta-hydroxybutyrate
BAIBA stimulates the production of ketone bodies like beta-hydroxybutyrate in the liver. Not only are ketone bodies an excellent fuel source for the body and brain, but they may also contribute to the browning of white fat themselves.

Cool, I'll grab a bottle when I place my Fourth of July order at Nutraplanet if they have it up for sale. :fing02:
Can't promise anything, but better stock up, if there is a sale I'll be buying 4, I have a feeling even as a rep it'll be hard to get.

Looks cool. Never heard of most of the ingredients before. Could this be stacked with anything that's currently popular? (Norcodrene, Alphamine, etc.)

Yes, it'll be great to stack with most current products out there, since it operates via different mechanisms.

Placed my order for 2 bottles today! Should I see something in an 8 week run? It seems like you would need to run this at least 812 weeks to see some results, but I am just guessing.

Yes, certain products should enhance results. 11-ketotestosterone (for one) for a nice fat loss stack. Alternatively, there are other non-hormonal options you can find.

Do you recommend cycling this too?
No more than 12 weeks is AL's recommendation. For a first run I would recommend you cycle it for nothing less than to ascertain some of its effects.

so this turns my white fat into brown fat?
The product induces the browning of white fat and activation of brown and beige fat tissue.

why arent women recommended to take this?
Where did you hear this?

roughly how much time would it take or would i need to see changes?
To 'see' changes is probably user dependent, but I would give it 6-8 and go from there.

i saw it on nutra, under lipomorph warning
i was thinking that my sister could benefit from this
There's no reason for that warning. Lipomorph is suitable for women. We'll get that taken off.

Are there any other supplements that we should avoid while using Lipomorph?

When my order arrrives I want to run Lipomorph with a ECY stack.

That'll be fine to stack with lipomorph

So 4 caps is the maximum per day dosage?
Well this isn't a stim product nor are any of the ingredients known to cause severe sides or anything of the sort, so really you'll probably be fine going a little higher. The main concern would be that since it's a new product, and many of the actives haven't been used before, there are many unknowns, so it's better to be safe than sorry. There's also the matter of diminishing returns. While we can't condone it directly, if you do try to go above 4 caps/day, please share your results with us.

Oh I plan on running 4 caps max. I always stick to label instructions so that everyone who ends up using the product can relate to any reviews/logs that I post up.

I would, but the thing is, I'm stacking it with Reduce XT/Alphamine. Seems like it'd be hard to tell if it really accelerated fat loss or not
I would still like to follow that log with those stacked wit it.

I always wanted to give reduce Xt a try. Never got to it. Alphamine is amazing.

First time running them? If not I'm sure you can tell what it's doing.

I've run Alphamine before. Never Reduce XT. I've been on Reduce XT already for two days now...my joints are feeling a little crappy though so I might lower the dosage. I might log Lipomorph just cause it's new and it's better to have some feedback rather than none for those who are on the fence (sorta like my Follidrone stack run)

I'm 217 lbs so should I just start out at 3 caps a day and not even mess with 2?

Just started a bottle of it today, running it with Vanillean and DMAE. If anyone is interested I'd log it, otherwise I'll just post a review when I finish the bottle.

Yeah.

hmm what about side effects ? if this stuff is good and i suspect that is { i already tried achilles / oneiromancer and love it } will be something no pain no gain...
I think side effects are unlikely. You might feel a bit warmer but that's about it. I'm glad you like our other products.
