My Initial Impression of ISOTRIM

Recently I asked a teenager where her favorite place was to eat; she named a fast food joint! I tried to keep my facial expression neutral as I attempted to change her mind about what constitutes as real food, my diatribe seems to have fallen on deaf ears because she still eats there several meals a week. By the way, she continues to pack on the weight to her once slender body. I feel like I’m sometimes talking to a brick wall whenever I discuss healthy food choices with other people because so many are caught up by convenience and the nearly addictive taste of sweets, high fat or fried foods or simple carbohydrates.

I came across advertising for a product that appears to be trying to help consumers break the addiction to processed foods by distributing a formula that they claim can help control insulin levels in the body, thereby controlling the persistent carbohydrate/sugar cravings that trigger so many people to overeat. ISOTRIM is advertised to prevent simple carbohydrate foods from being stored as fat and it is also claimed to raise metabolism.

Overall, the advertising was balanced in the claims made for ISOTRIM, but I feel the manufacturers could do a better job at educating the consumer on how to achieve a healthy body. They claim ISOTRIM is an excellent choice for those who want to lose weight or increase lean muscle development and it’s the former claim that I feel is misleading. The one and only way to increase lean muscle development is through exercise and weight-bearing strength training. Nevertheless, the product’s proclamation that it may regulate insulin levels shouldn’t be ignored—they make a valid point.

ISOTRIM Ingredients & What the Manufacturer Says They Will Do

Chromium, Green tea extract, Citrus Aurantium extract, Panax ginseng, Salvia sclarea, Cinnamon extract, Quercetin dehydrate, Japanese seaweed blend, Vanadium, Banaba leaf extract and Lagerstroemia speciosa leaf make up the formula in ISOTRIM. Aside from the green tea extract that is used in the formula, there really isn’t any risk in experimenting with ISOTRIM to see if it indeed will keep blood sugar levels under control.

The combination of nutrients in the formula have been shown in cited research studies to help level blood sugar, which may prevent cravings and low energy levels. There is even some thought that the ingredients might prevent some foods from being stored as fat. Nutrition science is on a relentless quest to turn the tide of lifestyle-caused diabetes and so it is no wonder we are seeing a rise in product manufacturing that targets insulin levels in the blood. However, here’s the thing, taking a supplement like ISOTRIM without supporting it with necessary diet and lifestyle changes is like getting the cart before the horse. To be fair, ISOTRIM’s advertising refers to diet and exercise as part of the equation, but they do not place the necessary emphasis on them, as one would expect from a reputable product.

The Main Drawbacks to ISOTRIM

ISOTRIM contains caffeine in the form of green tea extract and it is second on the ingredient list, which indicates there is more of that than the subsequent ingredients that could be counted on to perform as stated in the advertising. Caffeine is one of those ingredients that comes with a possible toll on the body, specifically to the central nervous system and the skeletal system (crash and burn energy and osteoporosis risk).

Would I try ISOTRIM?

Several of the ingredients in ISOTRIM may be beneficial to weight loss efforts and they may help burn some fat from the body, but in my estimation including caffeine in the formula is an unnecessary move on the part of the manufacturers.

What Others Are Saying About ISOTRIM

The effects of caffeine on the body are spelled out in numerous studies that can be located on the internet or any reliable nutrition journal. As far as ISOTRIM as a weight loss supplement, you can read up on that through diet review sites.
