Hoe helpen Voedingssupplementen bij Gewichtsverlies?

Most of us have already found ourselves wanting to lose weight (for aesthetic reasons, to be in better physical shape, for health reasons, etc.). However, weight loss is not a long quiet river on which each effort is rewarded by a few hundred grams less on the scale, as weight fluctuates according to several internal factors (water retention, development of muscle mass, etc.).

This is why, rather than the desire to lose weight and the importance of a simple number on the scale, our efforts should be focused more on slimming down (in the sense of physical measurements, BMI and fat or muscle mass index).

Today, the slimming market is saturated with so-called “diet” products, sold as miracle solutions to lose weight quickly and effortlessly, without even reviewing your diet. Why consume food supplements in the case of weight loss? Do they really make you lose weight? This is what we propose to find out.

A quick reminder of the mechanisms of weight loss

Before we even discuss the effects of food supplements on weight loss, we feel it is essential to make one thing clear: food supplements can help you lose weight, but they are by no means a miracle weight loss solution. You could take all the weight loss products (or at least those reputed to do so) that you want, but you won’t lose weight without changing your lifestyle.

Without going into a nutrition course, let’s remember that the body uses a minimum daily energy for its proper functioning (the basal metabolism) which varies according to age, body size, genetics, etc.

Thus, if you ingest more calories than your body needs to function, at best you will stabilise your weight, at worst you will gain weight. On the other hand, by slightly reducing your calorie intake through dieting (and we are not talking about a restrictive diet, but a dietary rebalancing adapted to your needs) or by increasing your physical activity, you create a deficit which will favour weight loss (provided you really have weight to lose).

It is important to know that the human body is predisposed to a certain weight, the fitness weight or the genetic weight, which is specific to each person. Without wanting to demotivate you, it is pointless to try to go below your ideal weight. The only solution would be to adopt a restrictive diet, which is not sustainable over time and is a source of weight regain (the yo-yo effect), and sometimes of eating disorders.

Moreover, this strategy can only work for a limited time, because a body that no longer receives enough energy to function will activate its energy-saving process, the “starvation mode”: slowing down the basal metabolism and storing calories at the slightest deviation.

Food supplements in weight loss

There is no such thing as a dietary supplement to help you lose weight. Although the consumption of this type of product is not necessary as part of a balanced diet, it can, however, be a definite help in the weight loss process.

Any change, even a beneficial one, disturbs the human body. Thus, even within the framework of a healthy, varied and balanced diet, losing weight will tire the body, which will be more greedy for certain minerals (such as vitamins to alleviate fatigue) or nutrients (proteins and carbohydrates in the case of resuming physical activity, for example).

This is why taking food supplements rich in nutrients, trace minerals and minerals can make up for a temporary deficiency (while the body gets used to the change).

Appetite suppressants food supplements

Appetite suppressants are often marketed as miracle supplements that reduce or even eliminate hunger. In reality, this type of product has a rather limited effectiveness.

However, they can help to reduce the feeling of hunger between meals and cravings for sweets during the day, even if in theory a sufficient diet adapted to the body’s needs is sufficient. Many foods have this satiating effect thanks to their slower digestion, as is the case with proteins, starchy foods (pasta or brown rice), apples, bananas, etc.

Fat burning food supplements

Although not essential for weight loss, fat-burning food supplements can help to eliminate fat, as their name indicates, by increasing the basic metabolism at rest and during exercise. These products have a thermogenic effect, i.e. they increase the body temperature and consequently the burning of fat as it happens during physical activity.

Certain natural substances can also facilitate the removal of fat (caffeine, cacao, L-carnitine, conjugated linoleic acid, etc.), as well as the consumption of certain foods known as “negative calorie foods”, because they require more energy to be digested and transformed into energy that can be used by the body (the process of dietary thermogenesis) than the calories they provide. Proteins are the most thermogenic nutrients (30-40% of protein consumed is converted into heat, compared to 5-8% for carbohydrates and 2-3% for fat).

Absorption blocking food supplements

Absorption blocking food supplements are known to limit the assimilation of certain nutrients by the intestine, in particular fats (lipids) or sugars consumed, thanks to their high content of natural soluble fibres which will trap these molecules.

As these fibres are soluble, they become viscous as soon as they come into contact with water, thus allowing the molecules to be carried away with them and facilitating their elimination. Oat bran, wheat bran, apple pectin, psyllium, chia seeds, konjac, etc., are the best known supplements. In addition, as they swell in the stomach, they have the secondary benefit of reducing the appetite.

Draining or “detox” food supplements

More than their action on weight loss, draining or detox products are interesting for their slimming effects on the figure. This type of product, known as diuretics, encourages the elimination of waste from the body, particularly toxins produced by the body’s natural functioning and those produced during weight loss.

Their action is largely focused on the elimination of water stored in excess by the body, the famous water retention responsible for a large part of cellulite, contributing to a feeling of lightness and deflation of the body. These food supplements also help to reduce bloating, constipation and digestive problems, so they promote a “flat stomach” effect.

Composed essentially of plants known to be diuretic (green tea, meadowsweet, cherry stem, birch, ash, etc.), they can be consumed in different forms (herbal tea, infusion, tablet, capsule, etc.). Combined with a balanced diet, draining agents contribute to the general slimming of the body.

What about Reduslim for weight loss?

Reduslim is a combination of all those kinds of food supplements. Indeed, thanks to its ingredients, we can say it is a mix of appetite suppressants and absorption blocking (with glucommanan), fat burning (with cacao), and also energy metabolism improving (with B vitamins).
