JYM Supplement Science : Shred JYM Fat Burner

Shred JYM is the all-powerful new fat burner by JYM Supplement Science. It harnesses the effects of six research validated ingredients to enhance your body’s ability to reduce your body-fat beyond regular dieting and exercise. The six ingredients include carnitine, tyrosine, green tea leaf extract, caffeine anhydrous, cayenne pepper and synephrine. All of these key ingredients attack your fat cells by a different approach, providing a comprehensive strategy to maximise fat loss efforts. Shred JYM differs from certain other fat burners as it doesn’t contain a propriety blend of ingredients and each individual ingredient is clinically dosed.

Carnitine

Carnitine works through the pathway of increasing fat oxidation and by reducing fat synthesis. It predominantly is responsible for transporting the fat cells from the cytosol to the mitochondria to be used as energy. The mitochondria are the power plants of cells in the body and are the place where the majority of ATP is derived for energy. Once fatty acids move into the mitochondria, they can be used up as fuel to generate ATP. This process is not possible if there isn’t a sufficient amount of carnitine present. Shred JYM packs a powerful 1.5g of Acetyl-L-Carnitine HCl as this can be better absorbed by the body compared to regular carntine.

Green tea leaf extracts

Green tea leaf extracts contain compounds call catechins, including epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), the most important catechin responsible for its thermogenic effect. These catechins have a beneficial effect on body-weight management, especially by sustained energy expenditure, fat oxidation, and preservation of fat free body-mass. The catechins also counteract the decrease in metabolic rate that occurs during weight loss- being of great importance when trying to maintain a specific weight after periods of weight loss. Supplementing with green tea allows the body to intake a higher dosage and has a better absorption level compared to tea form. Green tea also provides multiple health benefits including reducing your risk of certain cancers, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, type two diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Shred JYM contains 500mg of green tea leaf extracts, including 45% epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG).

Caffeine

This is a naturally occurring alkaloid that is found in the beans, leaves, and fruits of more than 60 plants. Some common sources of caffeine are found in kola nut, cacao bean, yerba mate, although roasted coffee beans and tea leaves are the most commonly consumed sources of caffeine. Caffeine anhydrous helps speed up fat loss by increasing your energy expenditure by 5-10% and by decreasing energy intake. It works through having a thermogenesis effect on the body, increasing fat oxidation and by decreasing energy intake. As well as its ability to wage war on fat, caffeine is beneficial to general health as it helps improve cognitive function, reduces the risk of cognitive decline with aging, reduces the risk of diabetes as well as being beneficial to multiple disciplines in sport- from explosive events such as powerlifting or sprinting to long distance event such as running a marathon at a dosage of 2-3mg per kilogram of bodyweight. Shred JYM provides 200mg of caffeine per serving.

Capsaicinoids

These are a group of chemicals naturally occurring in chilli peppers with bioactive properties that help to support weight management. Capsaicin helps you to burn any unwanted fat by increasing the amount of calories and fat your body burns. It also contributes to weight management through reducing your energy intake. Therefore, being a suitable supplement to use to support long-term natural weight loss. Other health benefits of this alkaloid of red pepper include cardio protective effects, antilithogenic effect, antiinflammatory and analgesia, thermogenic influence, and beneficial effects on gastrointestinal system. Shred JYM contains 50mg of Cayenne pepper fruit extract helping to get rid of that stubborn unwanted fat.

Bitter Orange

This derives from the dried immature fruits of Citrus aurantium (bitter orange). It utilises its effects through multiple mechanisms, primarily enhancing thermogenesis by binding to β-3 adrenergic receptors, resulting in an increase in the body’s ability to breakdown fats- increasing the amount metabolised to produce energy. Shred JYM provides 20mg of bitter orange per serving. Tyrosine- This amino acid provides a mental edge when dieting as it helps with mental focus, energy and maintains alertness during those periods of difficult dieting. It plays a key role in producing several hormones- such as dopamine, epinephrine, norepinephrine and thyroid hormones. Having a high level of these hormones also helps to support fat loss. Shred JYM provides a healthy dose of 500mg of tyrosine per serving.
