RxLink Diet Support with Garcinia Cambogia

RxLink Diet Support with Garcinia Cambogia
DESCRIPTION
RxLink Diet Support is a combination of an herb and a mineral
specifically designed to support sensible weight management
programs such as those involving consistent, moderate dietary
restriction and regular exercise.
FUNCTIONS
Each capsule of Diet Support delivers 250 mg of
(-)hydroxycitric acid from 500 mg of a high-quality,
standardized Garcinia cambogia extract. This natural extract
comes from a tropical fruit grown in several Asian rain
forest areas. Research shows that (-)hydroxycitric acid
helps maintain a healthy balance of hepatic lipogenesis and
gluconeogenesis, thus preventing excessive conversion of
glucose from dietary carbohydrate into body fat. Further,
research indicates that (-)hydroxycitric acid plays an important
role in the regulation of normal appetite. Unlike many
commonly used diet ingredients, (-)hydroxycitric acid is not a
central nervous stimulant.
Chromium is also provided at a significant level by Diet
Support. This essential trace mineral potentiates insulin action
and thus influences carbohydrate, protein, and fat metabolism.
In its biologically active form, sometimes called glucose
tolerance factor (GTF) from brewer’s yeast, chromium is
associated with nicotinic acid (vitamin B-3). Chromium
polynicotinate closely resembles the brewer’s yeast GTF in
both biological activity and chemical composition as it also
contains chromium associated with nicotinic acid. Chromium
polynicotinate is yeast-free and has documented high
bioavailability. The typical dietary chromium intake in the
U.S. can vary considerably depending on eating habits. Most
self-selected diets contain less than 50 mcg per day, which is
below the minimum of the Estimated Safe and Adequate Daily
Dietary Intake established by the National Research Council,
Food and Nutrition Board.
