Science Behind CitruSlim
Scientific Proof For Citruslim
CitruSlim is made of ingredients that are proven to help you manage your metabolism so you can lose weight. Keep scrolling to learn more about the science behind CitruSlim. This includes Stress, Cortisol and Weight, AMPK and Weight, and Hunger Hormone.
The Science: How it Works
CitruSlim® works by supporting healthy cortisol levels, thereby decreasing the desire to binge eat due to stress.*
CitruSlim® works by activating the AMPK metabolic enzyme to help fight unwanted belly fat
CitruSlim® works by supporting healthy signaling of gut hormones (Ghrelin) responsible for hunger & satiety to manage hunger*

Life isn't going to stop, and neither is stress.
Millions of Americans simply accept stress as part of their modern lifestyles. But stress can have a measurable effect on your body. Emotional eating is a pattern of eating where food is used to deal with stressful situations.
Initially, stress causes the appetite to decrease so that the body can respond appropriately to the stressful situation. If the stress continues, a hormone called cortisol is released. Cortisol increases appetite and can cause someone to overeat. High cortisol levels from stress can increase food cravings for sugary or fatty foods. Stress is also associated with increased release of ghrelin, the hunger hormone, which often contributes to cravings for unhealthy foods.
In a randomized, placebo-controlled study, Adapticort® Eurycoma longifolia root extract (an ingredient in CitruSlim®) helped to modulate cortisol release, significantly improve mood state, support broad-spectrum stress response, and support already-healthy cortisol levels.*

Target Abdominal Fat
AMPK is an enzyme that is known as the body’s “master regulator of energy metabolism,” and is found in every cell in your body. AMPK plays a central role in regulating healthy glucose, lipid metabolism and energy production. Adiponectin is a collagen-like protein found in the adipose tissue. Adiponectin stimulates fatty acid oxidation through the activation of AMPK and plays an important role in glucose and lipid metabolism. Overweight individuals have significantly lower adiponectin levels than individuals in a healthy/normal weight range.
As we age, AMPK activity significantly slows. This is one reason why we experience changes in appetite, body weight, energy levels, etc. Declining AMPK levels can cause the accumulation of abdominal fat. Studies showed that increasing AMPK activity can encourage cells to stop storing fat and start burning it for energy.
Not all fat is the same
Abdominal fat is one of the worst types of fat. That’s where AMPK comes in: it doesn’t just promote a healthy weight, but actually targets abdominal fat.
Benefits of AMPK Activation:
• Regulates energy balance and metabolism*
• Supports healthy weight management*
• Supports healthy inflammation function*
• Improves metabolic pathways*
• Supports autophagy and healthy aging*
Studies show that bergamot flavanoids activate AMPK. In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, Bergamonte® (the other key ingredient in CitruSlim®) significantly increased adiponectin by 18.65% and 21.76% after consuming 650mg and 1300mg, respectively, of the full-spectrum Bergamonte® extract for 12 weeks. As a result, body weight was reduced by 10.04% in the 650mg group and 14.91% in the 1300mg group*. BMI was also reduced by 10.12% and 15.85%, respectively*.

Ward off the snack attack.
Did you know that hunger and satiety are controlled to a large extent by hormones? CitruSlim® helps you resist the urge to snack by supporting healthy signaling of key gut hormones involved in hunger signaling, ghrelin and leptin.
Ghrelin is a hormone produced in the gut, and its main function is to send a signal to your brain to increase appetite when your stomach is empty. It makes you consume more food, take in more calories and store fat. The higher the ghrelin levels, the hungrier you are. The lower the levels, the fuller you feel and easier it is to eat fewer calories.
Leptin is a hormone that is produced by your body’s fat cells. It inhibits hunger and regulates energy balance, so your body does not trigger hunger responses when it doesn’t need energy. Leptin helps your brain to regulate how much energy to burn throughout the day. When the body is functioning properly, excess fat cells produce leptin that signals the brain to reduce the appetite, allowing the body to dip into the fat stores to feed itself.
Leptin is your own personal trainer. It controls appetite by signaling your brain to stop eating.

Because fat cells produce leptin in proportion to their size, people who are overweight also have very high levels of leptin. However, their leptin signaling is impaired, causing the brain erroneously to think that the body is starving — even though it has more than enough energy stored. This makes your brain change its behavior to regain body fat:
• Eating more: Your brain thinks that you must eat to prevent starvation.
• Reduced energy expenditure: In an effort to conserve energy, your brain decreases energy levels and makes you burn fewer calories at rest.
In a randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled study, Bergamonte® (a key ingredient in CitruSlim®) significantly reduced ghrelin by 6.89% and 14.90% and reduced leptin by 12.30% and 21.36% after consuming 650mg or 1300mg of Bergamonte® extract respectively, for 12 weeks.
