How DLPA Suppresses Hunger

When you feel stress, do you feel a natural reaction to reach for a potato chip or piece of chocolate? If you do, then your body is working properly, but maybe not in a way that helps you attain your weight loss goals. Your body is protecting itself, although it is depleting some of its essential amino acids, resulting in the cravings you are experiencing.

What is an Amino Acid?

An amino acid is the basic building block of proteins. Our body produces around twenty of them. Of those, eight or nine (depending on the research you read) have been deemed "essential." A combination of the foods we eat and our body's activities creates these essential amino acids. All amino acids help the body build proteins that are important to our existence.

What is DLPA?

DL-Phenylalanine (DLPA) contains two forms of the amino acid phenylalanine. The "L" form is found naturally in protein rich foods. The "D" form is synthetically created. Much research has been conducted on DLPA, showing how it naturally helps with pain management and, as we are going to find out, with stress-related hunger management.

Now, Back to the Potato Chip

If you feel stress on a regular basis and find your hand in the snack jar, DLPA can help. When stressed, your body creates a hormone called cholecystokinin also known as CCK and pancreozymin, which provides the signal to eat. DLPA naturally counteracts that mechanism, controlling your body's natural reaction to eat.

Appetite & Craving Suppressants Now up to 20% Off

Dr. Chad Prusmack's CravePruTect Nutritional Supplement and WeightLossPruTect Weight Loss Bundle Are Now on Sale for a Limited Time

Highlands Ranch, CO— May 30, 2013—PruTectRx, the leader in supplying nutritional supplements to accelerate surgical recovery, optimize daily wellness and to naturally suppress the appetite and cravings for patients and consumers, today announces that CravePruTect and WeightLossPruTect are now up to 20% off, for a limited time.

CravePruTect: Feed Your Brain, Not Your Body
CravePruTect is a nutritional supplement that reduces cravings by replacing the essential amino acids 5-Hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP), DL-Phenylalanine (DLPA) and L-Tyrosine. These amino acids are depleted due to stress and/or a low calorie diet, particularly for those on restricted diets.

• 5-HTP: occurs as a natural precursor to serotonin, and certain serotonin receptors have been shown to reduce appetite
• DLPA: regulates the release of the brain's hunger signaler, cholecystokinin
• L-Tyrosine: counteracts the effects of elevated stress levels, which deplete the body's resources of certain neurotransmitters which suppress appetite

CravePruTect boosts 5-HTP, DLPA and L-Tyrosine levels in the brain, which satisfies our "reward cascade." This feeling of satisfaction keeps you from craving calorie-rich carbohydrates, alcohol and other things that we do not need.

WeightLossPruTect: CravePruTect + WeightPruTect
The product bundle, WeightLossPruTect, consists of two PruTectRx nutritional supplements: CravePruTect and WeightPruTect.

WeightPruTect consists of highly potent green tea extract (600 mg), which helps to suppress your appetite and increase your body's metabolism, giving you a thermogenic metabolism boost. Each WeightPruTect capsule is equivalent to drinking about 10 cups of green tea.

On Sale Now
A 60-day supply of CravePruTect is now available for $31.95. A 60-day supply of WeightLossPruTect is now available for $89.95. Both nutritional supplements are sold exclusively on www.prutectrx.com.

How Boosting Serotonin Levels Can Lead to Weight Loss

Low Serotonin Levels & Weight Gain

What makes us happy? Surely, the people in our lives and our environment play major roles, but so too does the neurotransmitter serotonin.

For some, low serotonin levels may help explain why some may feel down when there is no other obvious reason. For many, low serotonin levels can simply have us feeling unsatisfied, leading to cravings for food when we are not necessarily hungry. This is why people with persistently low levels of serotonin may struggle to maintain a healthy weight.

Low serotonin levels in most are caused by stress. Take away the stress and serotonin levels may normalize on their own. However, since we live in the real world, people may need help from nutritional supplements to boost serotonin levels in addition to seeking a less stressful lifestyle.

The Role of Nutritional Supplements

Why do we need nutritional supplements to boost serotonin levels instead of making simple dietary changes? Because serotonin is not found in the food we eat. Instead, serotonin is derived from 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP), which is also not found in food but is found in tryptophan, an essential amino acid.

While tryptophan is well known as being found in turkey, and largely responsible for that feeling of sleepiness after Thanksgiving dinner, it is not found in a high enough quantity in any food to elevate serotonin levels. However, nutritional supplements that contain at least 100mg of 5-HTP are able to increase serotonin levels.

How an African Plant Can Boost Your Serotonin Level

5-HTP found in nutritional supplements is typically derived from the seeds of a plant called Griffonia simplicifolia, an ivy-like shrub found in West and Central Africa. These seeds are then ground into a powder and packaged in a vegetable gel capsule. Once ingested, the body converts the seed powder into 5-HTP and then serotonin. Elevated serotonin levels then help to give us a feeling of well-being that can lead to improvements in mood, sleep and happiness and decrease feelings of hunger, anxiety and depression.

CravePruTect: Now 20% Off (for a limited time)

As part of the PruTect Series of nutritional supplements, CravePruTect features 150mg of 5-HTP, derived from Griffonia simplicifolia seeds, and can only be found on the PruTectRx website here—for 20% off.

The Appetite Suppression of Green Tea without the Restroom Visits

Green tea has long demonstrated many health benefits, including appetite suppression. However, to experience them, it would be necessary to almost constantly be drinking a cup of tea. It's for this reason that the primary components of green tea have been extracted to provide 10 cups worth of green tea in a single capsule of the new PruTectRx product, WeightPruTect, thereby providing you with excellent antioxidant power without all of the trips to the restroom.

What is Green Tea Extract?
Green tea extract is essentially all of the key constituents of green tea in a more potent form. The biochemical properties of green tea extracts can be generally divided into four aspects – antioxidant, anticarcinogen, anti-inflammatory, and anti-radiation. Through a purification process, however, it is possible to extract those primary benefits to acquire a higher content of tea catechins, the "magic" piece of the green tea puzzle.

Catechins are part of a group of polyphenols called flavonoids that are found naturally in plants and help to stimulate thermogenesis, the process by which the body generates heat therefore increasing metabolism.

Why Green Tea?

From the antioxidant perspective, green tea extracts are, generally speaking, more effective than black tea extracts due to the better preservation of catechins because in black tea the catechins are fully oxidized and converted to theaflavins. In other words, the good stuff isn't destroyed through the purification process.

Green Tea Extract Trivia
Did you know that green tea extract is 20 times more antioxidant-active than Vitamin C? Now that's what we call packing a punch!

Green Tea & Weight Loss

Along with its incredible antioxidant properties, green tea also supports a healthy metabolism. It is for this purpose that WeightPruTect was created. WeightPruTect is specifically formulated to support proper weight maintenance and control while still providing the benefits associated with antioxidants including immune system function and endocrine system function.

To maximize results and achieve your weight-loss goals, use WeightPruTect with in conjunction with CravePruTect as part of our WeightLossPruTect bundle.
