Transdermal Weight Loss Patches
Transdermal Weight Loss Patches One of the hardest aspects of trying to lose weight is the change required to your eating habits. Most diets will require you to make certain dietary changes - some fairly drastic in order to drop those unwanted pounds. If you lead a very busy lifestyle where breakfast is a cup of coffee, lunch is at the fast food kiosk, and dinner is at the all-you-can-eat buffet, your diet will surely suffer. Weight loss supplements such as diet pills to promote weight loss through increased fat metabolism, and meal replacement shakes have been designed with busy people in mind. But when these supplements are taken orally, dosage intervals may be inconvenient, and some supplements are partly destroyed or neutralized in the stomach, intestine or liver before reaching the bloodstream. Accordingly, a higher dose is needed to ensure efficacy, which in turn may increase the risk of side effects. A patch, which delivers natural weight loss ingredients through the skin into the bloodstream, is fast becoming an increasingly popular alternative for pills or capsules. These patches known as transdermal - ''through-the-skin'' delivery systems are being referred to by doctors as "the delivery system of the future." It has been discovered that ingredients contained in transdermal patches have an absorption rate as high as 95% when delivered through the skin. This means quite a lot of the supplement is getting to the cells where it's needed. The convenience of applying the patch to a non obtrusive part of the body** and carrying on with daily activities unhindered is very appealing. Not having to remember diet pill regimens or suffer with the intestinal discomfort of oral weight loss supplements is a positive for anyone looking to lose weight. The transdermal weight loss patch is based on the same technology that has been proven to help millions of people overcome nicotine addiction and control heart problems. There are four main types of transdermal patches of which the matrix system has been found to be most effective for people looking to lose weight. Each weight loss patch contains ingredients from naturally grown crops to help eliminate the sensation of hunger, increase your metabolism and promote weight loss. One hundred male and female subjects between the ages of 19 and 67 were admitted to a study of the efficacy of transdermal patches to assist weight loss. The participants, whose body weight was between 17 to163 pounds in excess of normal body weight*, had attested to trying many varied diets and weight loss programs over a period of one or more years. Approximately a quarter of the participants expressed scepticism about the effectiveness of a ''patch'' to lose weight After the first seven days, there was a 5 pound weight loss among the women and a 3 pound weight loss among the men. After the full sixty day trial, women averaged a 22 pound reduction in bodyweight, while the men experienced a 20 pound reduction. They all followed a well balanced diet while wearing one weight loss patch per day. It would appear that using drastic diet and exercise changes to achieve weight loss could be a thing of the past. If you make small changes to your diet and incorporate some form of exercise, then losing those unwanted pounds may not be the dreaded experience many have had in the past.
