Help Ditch Weight With Celsius Products
Winnie McCroy READ TIME: 5 MIN.
If your New Year's resolution was to lose weight and get in shape, the makers of Celsius are ready to help you with the world's first negative-calorie beverage.
"Celsius�, Your Negative Calorie Drink�, is a great tasting drink for your active, healthy lifestyle. First there were low calorie drinks, and then came zero calorie drinks. But why stop at zero?," asked the company.
For men and women at all levels of training, from extreme weight loss to maintaining a figure, Celsius could be a game-changer for those people looking to truly succeed at their health goals this year.
Backed by seven clinical studies, Celsius is shown to accelerate your transformation by burning up to 100 calories and more per serving, boosting metabolism, reducing body fat, increasing endurance and providing lasting energy.
All of the clinical studies show that Celsius has thermogenic properties. Thermogenics are substances that increase metabolism and push the nervous system to be more active. This speeds up body functions such as heart rate and breath rate. In turn, this causes you to burn more calories than you normally would. The increase in metabolism from thermogenics results in the body burning fat as fuel.
In one of seven scientific studies, the scientist's objective was to measure the results of drinking Celsius 15 minutes prior to moderate exercise and determine if Celsius stimulates the fat burning mechanism in previously sedentary adult men that begin a moderate exercise regimen.
The 10-week study of 37 college-age men consisted of 5 days a week of moderate exercise and compared participants who consumed a single serving of Celsius 15 minutes prior to moderate exercise, with participants who did moderate exercise only.
The Celsius group on average experienced the following benefits:
� 78% greater body fat loss
� 114% greater decrease in percent body fat
� 79% improved endurance performance
� 32% greater resistance to fatigue (increased energy)
� 5.5 lbs of fat loss
The scientific studies were conducted on the Celsius product as a whole, not just the ingredients contained in Celsius, and showed that drinking Celsius results in burning calories and providing lasting energy. When drinking Celsius before exercise, it reduces body fat, increases endurance and provides greater resistance to fatigue (increased energy).
"These are very interesting findings that, in my opinion, will set the tone for how people maximize their workouts. Now it can be scientifically supported that, by consuming a pre-workout calorie burning beverage, a person can improve their response to exercise; however, these claims are unique to Celsius," said Jeffrey R. Stout, Ph.D., chief researcher on one of the studies at the University of Oklahoma.
Celsius is powered by MetaPlus�, a blend of ingredients designed to work together to increase calorie burning over a three-hour period. The formula is the result of years of research and testing and while the mix is proprietary, consumers readily recognize and trust the healthier blend of its ingredients such as: Green Tea with EGCG, Ginger, Calcium, Chromium, Caffeine, Guarana, and Vitamins B & C.
"Celsius is my secret weapon to staying fit and gives me the energy to get me through my busy day," said celebrity Mario Lopez. "Drinking Celsius before I exercise, I know I am going to get the best workout. I feel stronger and work out harder and longer, with plenty of energy left. Celsius is my ultimate fitness partner."
Drinking Celsius will also help keep you hydrated this winter. Most people assume that you can only be dehydrated in the summer when you're feeling hot and sweaty, but winter dehydration can be even more serious because people are not recognizing the signs and symptoms of thirst.
Hydrating the body is vital to overall function, including carrying nutrients and oxygen into the body and helping avoid making the heart work too hard. The eight cups of water your body loses each day needs to be refilled; here's a few ways to ensure you get enough H2O.
Carry around a water bottle: Seeing water in front of you will help you remember to take sips throughout the day
Eat water-rich fruits and vegetables: Think watermelon, lettuce, cucumbers!
If you're trying to lose some lbs. along the way: Celsius is a clinically-backed beverage that can help boost your energy, increase metabolism, and burn up to 100 extra calories as well (drink and shrink!)
If you're pregnant: The nutrient-rich prenatal beverage from Bump Water contains 100% of the RDA of folic acid, Vitamins A, D, B6, and B12, Niacin, Biotin, Zinc, and Magnesium-and comes in FOUR yummy flavors.
Celsius is available on Amazon.com, with a 4-pack running $8.29.
