About CLA
CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) is a naturally occurring, polyunsaturated fatty acid found in the meat of ruminants (cows, sheep, etc.) and dairy from these animals. CLA is also a natural part of our diet. It is formed in the rumen of grazing cattle in a process where linoleic acid from grass is transformed into CLA. Some of the best sources of CLA are beef and dairy products like milk, cheese, and yoghurt. There are many different variants of CLA and they have different effects in the body. Bio-T contains the CLA isomers t10,c12 and c9,t11. The CLA used in Bio-T is derived from safflower. CLA is a GRAS-certified (Generally Recognized as Safe) food additive.
About green tea extract (GTE)
Green tea extract is particularly popular among dieters. It has a high content of the active compound epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). Natural green tea extract with EGCG helps to enhance the body's metabolism and contributes to the fat oxidation involved in the energy metabolism.
Why and how you should take Bio-T
Avoid the “yo-yo effect”
The "yo-yo effect" of dieting is when your weight bounces up and down in connection with attempts to lose weight. You may succeed in shedding a considerable amount of weight by cutting back on your food intake, but the weight often returns because it is difficult to stick with a diet plan. A CLA supplement with green tea extract may be useful in connection with attempts to lose weight. It supports your body’s fat oxidation and may enhance your metabolism.
Combine it with exercise
It is generally a good idea to combine green tea extract with regular exercise. Exercise stimulates your muscles's fat metabolism (fat oxidation), and green tea extract also supports the body's fat metabolism by increasing the burning of fat.
Award-winning concept
Bio-T (the same product but with ahas different name) won several international prizes in European consumer and retail events aimed at selecting the best preparations in categories such as “Weight Management”.
Variations in gelatin hardness
The hardness of our soft gelatin capsules can vary. The difference depends solely on the water content of the capsule shell. We dry all our soft capsules before packaging, which makes the capsules firmer and facilitates the packaging process itself. Over time, the capsules can absorb water from the air, and this will soften the capsule shell.
The variations in the hardness of the capsule have no effect on the product quality, but if a hard capsule is a problem, a solution may be to leave the capsule outside the blister sheet for a day, whereby the capsule can absorb a little water from the air. This is generally not something we recommend, as the product will no longer be protected as when it is in the blister sheet. Another method of quickly softening the gelatin capsule is to place it in lukewarm water for one minute. However, it should be seen as an emergency solution.
