Lipotropic Diet Injections – Diet Plan
Lipotropics are used by many as diet injections. They are catalysts for breaking down and metabolizing fats that may be stored in the body. The Huntington College of Health Sciences published a report indicating the benefit of certain Lipotropic agents, as well as their beneficial effects on fat mobilization, cholesterol levels, and overall heart health. The Lipotropic products come in two forms, MIC and the LIPO product which contains MIC as well as vitamin B12 in the form of Cyanocobalamin. The addition of B12 in the LIPO product may aid in metabolism and energy when on a calorie restricted diet. The diet plan is a 1200-1300 Calorie diet for women and 1500-1600 calorie diet for men, which can be followed safely and has several variations. It is designed to aid in weight loss as well as promote a body and heart and is recommended by the US Department of Health and Human Services and the National Institution of Health. The plan is less restrictive than other low calorie plans and pays special attention to whole grain carbs, fruits and vegetables, and lean portions of meat and portion sizes.
