What's in Slim and Sassy?

Slim & Sassy has been formulated to help balance and regulate our metabolism.  It contains pure cinnamon, ginger, peppermint, lemon and grapefruit essential oils. 

Cinnamon –  The cinnamon helps reduce the obesity factor.  Cinnamon is as antioxidant, it helps reduce damage done to the liver, it helps us metabolize sugars more appropriately, helps balance your cholesterol, and most importantly it stops your body from producing more fat cells. 

Ginger – Ginger stimulates weight loss through lipolysis (the way your body lets go of the fat in your fat cells).  It also helps your body produce more epinephrine.

Peppermint – Peppermint has been proven to curb appetite and reduce cravings.  They did a study (details on the webinar) where they compared 2 groups of people and their caloric intake.  One group didn’t change their diet, they just supplemented their meals with peppermint oil while the other group restricted their caloric intake.  They found that on average the group that took peppermint with every meal ate 2800 fewer calories per week, while those on a restricted diet consumed on average 2200 fewer calories per week.  Peppermint increases the sense of fullness after eating so that we don’t have the desire to eat as much! 

Grapefruit and Lemon – Citrus oils!  Citrus oils also help reduce appetite because of their high amounts of limonene.   Limonene interferes with your cells ability to change.  So basically, it deters your body from producing more fat cells and also inhibits tumors.
