Compared to most supplements for weight management on the market, TLS CORE Fat & Carb Inhibitor was created to deal specifically with the issues related to leptin sensitivity. TLS CORE Fat & Carb Inhibitor may help promote appetite suppression and may inhibit the body from converting excess sugar into fat.

Dealing with leptin sensitivity can be an important step for people continually losing and gaining weight. When these people lose fat through diet and exercise, the brain thinks it is starving and tells the body - through the hormone leptin - to hold on to its fat stores.

Inevitably, the weight they once lost comes back because the body fights harder against losing fat. As someone gains weight, the body adjusts to its new heavier weight, making it harder to slim down again. Thanks to its unique formula including the clinically-tested ingredient LeptiCore, TLS CORE Fat & Carb Inhibitor may help suppress your appetite and inhibit the absorption of carbohydrates, helping you with weight management and feel great.

This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

Chromium 
Dietary chromium is an essential trace mineral assisting in the metabolism and use of carbohydrates and fat. Chromium promotes the delivery of blood sugar to cells, thereby helping to maintain normal blood sugar levels.  Chromium also helps maintain healthy levels of cholesterol and other blood lipids. 

Phaseolus Vulgaris (White Kidney Bean Extract) 
Research has shown that supplementation with white kidney bean extract can promote a greater reduction in body weight, body mass index (BMI) and fat mass. Scientifically known as Phaseolus vulgaris, white kidney bean is classified as an amylase inhibitor. Amylase is an enzyme that breaks down starchy carbohydrates into more easily absorbed sugars such as glucose. As individuals age, the ability to use carbohydrates from the diet slows down, causing increased glucose in the blood stream, leading to excess storage in the form of fat. Amylase plays a role in the digestion of carbohydrates and, subsequently, in the absorption of unwanted calories. Supplementation with white kidney bean extract allows certain carbohydrates to pass through the body undigested, stopping them from eventually being converted into fat. This bypass of undigested carbohydrates may reduce and normalize levels of simple sugars (glucose) in the blood.

LeptiCore™**
LeptiCore has been clinically proven to help support a healthy weight. LeptiCore – a proprietary, safe and natural complex of plant-based polysaccharides and esterified fatty acids – has demonstrated the ability to support weight management. LeptiCore targets critical mechanisms involved with body fat storage. LeptiCore supports the normal activity of leptin, a hormone involved with hunger signals. Imagine leptin as a mail messenger. Now imagine the brain as a mail box. With LeptiCore, leptin sensitivity is supported. LeptiCore supports the ability of leptin to enter the brain and signal the stomach that it is full.

Bitter melon (Momordica charantia) fruit extract
Bitter melon (Momordica charantia) grows in tropical areas and is cultivated throughout South America as a food and for its health properties. It has been shown to have antioxidant properties, as well as a role in maintaining normal blood sugar levels. Charantin, one of several constituents in bitter melon, is believed to act as its primary mechanism to helping the body maintain normal blood sugar levels.

In considering the TLS Weight Management Solution, how important is calorie counting?
The TLS Weight Management Solution is based on low-glycemic eating and portion control, not calorie counting. Therefore, each person, regardless of size, can follow the system to achieve optimal results. The TLS Weight Management Solution is based around eating the right kinds of foods to help nourish and fill your body. Counting calories is not a priority when you follow the TLS Weight Management Solution.

Are fat free and low fat foods the solution to being overweight?
These foods can definitely play a part in an overall effort to manage weight, but consuming them will not undo a myriad of other dietary downfalls or make up for a lack of physical activity. Successful weight loss and weight maintenance depends on achieving the right mix of diet and physical activity. To lose weight, you need to take in less energy (eat fewer calories) than you expend (or work off) through physical activity. Combining dietary modifications to reduce calories and fat with a consistent physical activity plan is the most effective way to lose weight. Also, focusing on eating a wide variety of lower-glycemic index (GI) foods is a great way to appease the senses, as well as gain a greater range of vitamins and nutrients in the diet. When you consume an assortment of foods, eating healthier becomes easier and more gratifying. Fat free and low fat does not always mean low calorie, and these foods are usually not very satisfying.

What are carbohydrates?
Carbohydrates, protein and fat are the body’s three main sources of fuel. All three of these sources contain calories; carbs and proteins supply four calories per gram, and fats supply nine calories per gram. When the body burns a calorie – whether from a carbohydrate, a protein or a fat – energy is released. Carbohydrates, however, have the distinction of being the body’s predominant and most efficient source of energy.

What roles do carbohydrates play in the body?
Different types of carbohydrates are processed differently by the body and, consequently, have different effects on blood glucose levels. The glycemic index, or GI, ranks carbohydrate-rich foods according to their effect on blood glucose levels. Carbohydrates provide the body with the fuel it needs for physical activity and proper organ function. The best sources of carbohydrates – fruits, vegetables and whole grains – deliver essential vitamins and minerals, fiber and a host of important phytonutrients. The digestive system handles all carbohydrates in much the same way; it breaks them down (or tries to break them down which is the case for fiber) into single sugar molecules, since only single sugar molecules are small enough to cross into the bloodstream. It converts carbohydrates into glucose (also known as blood sugar) because cells are designed to use this as a universal energy source.

The glycemic index measures how fast and how high blood sugar levels rise after consuming foods that contain carbohydrates. White bread, for example, is a high glycemic index food and is converted almost immediately to glucose, causing blood sugar levels to spike rapidly. Brown rice, in contrast, has a low glycemic index and is digested more slowly, causing a steadier and overall lower change in blood sugar levels.

Are reduced-fat foods always low in fat?
These types of food are lower in fat than the original, but that does not necessarily mean they are low fat. To know the facts, read the nutrition label and compare the fat content of two similar products with the same serving size.

As I lose weight, will the elasticity in my skin adapt to the weight loss?
When you lose weight as body fat, you maintain the muscle, and over time through exercise most people find that their excess skin will adapt to their new body and tighten up. It is important that you exercise to improve your muscle mass and tone, and help target body fat loss as well. 

Do I have to exercise to see results?
As with most weight management supplements, this product was designed to be taken in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise. This is the best and proven way to lose weight. Exercise and healthy eating are essential for optimal results. 

How does TLS CORE Fat & Carb Inhibitor support weight management?
In weight management, starchy carbohydrates can really pack on the pounds. Starchy carbohydrates can also trigger leptin resistance. Starchy carbohydrates lead to higher blood sugar levels, increasing insulin causing the body to store fat.

When you work towards your weight management and healthy lifestyle goals, TLS CORE Fat & Carb Inhibitor works as hard as you. TLS CORE Fat & Carb Inhibitor contains the active ingredient, white kidney bean extract. White kidney bean extract inhibits the enzymes that normally break down starch into glucose within the small intestine. White kidney bean extract uses a calculated approach to affect the utilization of carbohydrates once they enter the body. As a result, the absorption of glucose from carbohydrate-rich foods, such as bread, potatoes, rice and pasta is inhibited. This gives you an advantage by minimizing the effects of surplus carbohydrates that are waiting to be converted into fat within the body.

TLS CORE Fat & Carb Inhibitor contains Bitter melon (Momordica charantia) fruit extract, a South American health food medicine. Bitter melon is known for its antioxidant, antidiabetic, and immune-enhancing abilities. It also promotes improved glucose tolerance. 

Are there any warnings/contraindications associated with this product?
