Health Natural Weight Loss Plan
We have a range of supplements and services to effectively help with the various factors affecting weight loss, including insulin resistance.
Glucomannan (Konjac): This soluble fibre effectively reduces insulin resistance and curbs appetite.
Carb-Blocker: Prevents the conversion of starch to sugar. The starches are then eliminated rather than causing weight gain.
Glucose Support: A synergistic blend of ingredients to balance and maintain healthy blood sugar levels.
Super CLA Blend: This blend is designed to increase the burning of fats and also reduce the size and number of fat storing cells in your body.
Hoodia: A very effective and safe appetite suppressant with no known side effects. However, it is a scarce desert plant and most brands of Hoodia on sale are fakes. After much careful research AFM has found a reputable and effective brand.
Dietary Advice: Get your own customised food list. E.g. is a low Glycemic Load diet right for you?
Metabolic Type Testing: Knowing your Metabolic Type and which foods suit you best, not only helps you to lose weight but also become healthier too.
