I have to admit I am not easily surprised but I am often shocked by some of the questions I am asked.  They come almost as statements not even questions.

I get a lot of clients and even complete strangers asking me point blank without hesitation what are the “best supplements for fat loss”.

Why should this surprise you and even shock me? Well quite simply its not about the “magic” pills and powders.  Its not about counting on one more product to make your life all fat into a skinny little box, size 0 jeans or XS bikini.

Fat Loss is more about using supplements wisely to enhance your fat loss, not to be the answer to fat loss.

You must first get your diet in order.  Only good nutrition will set you on your way to true fat loss.  The “magic” pills, powders and potions are there for 1 of two reasons and both will work for you.

Supplements are designed to do two key things for fat loss:

1. Kick Start Your Fat Loss Program to Move You Toward Your Fat Loss Goal
2. Burn Down the Last Few Pounds or Percent Body Fat to Accomplish Your Goal

OK so I have avoided the question for now, and I am going to avoid it a bit more.  Now I want you to think about when you should take your supplements.

You will want to take any supplements (in this case, multivitamins and fat burners) 2-3 times per day for best results.

WHAT?! Take how many pills how many times a day you say!

I know this is against the “once a day” multi vitamin marketing you are reading about, but would you rather hear pie in the sky or hear the truth no matter how ugly it sounds from someone you can trust.

Once a day multi’s fat burners, joint formulas, whatever the supplement may be are a load of crap.  They don’t exist.  All that is happeining is you are getting more stuff crammed into a tighter bundle with more fillers, glues and binding agents that take longer to break down.  Reality is half the time if you just turn around and look in the toilette there goes your “one-a-day” and your hard earned cash.

To avoid flushing your multi down the drain, you need to take a pill, powder or liquid 2-3 times per day.

Think of it this way, you feed yourself several times a day right.  Well supplements are no different than food… 1, 2, 3 plus times per day.

I recommend taking your supplements with or near food.  Most products are absorbed better with food.  Others are designed to reduce hunger and cravings etc… to create a response in the body as is the case with fat burners, taken on empty stomach can be a bit trying on your system, but 30 minutes before a meal or workout will reduce cravings and hunger and increase fat burning.  Taking a Multi Vitamin with food is essential since it is better absorbed by the body with the presence of food and other natural vitamins, which reminds me… buy natural version supplements, not tiny pills from pharmaceutical manufacturing companies.  The body knows the difference and assimilates natural versions better.

I want you to take your supplements first thing in the morning and again mid afternoon for best results.  Everyone can tailor their supplement schedule to their needs, but this is optimal for assimilation, energy and keeping it simple.

OK so here we go.  Now you know when to take your supplements for fat loss, how about what to take. Here’s my no nonsense approach to fat loss supplements…

MUST HAVE SUPPLEMENTS:

1. Protein Powders – 2 to  times per day – Whey protein is the safe choice for all your needs, but I would even step up and recommend a full spectrum blending protein as a solid back up.
2. Multi Vitamin and Mineral Formula – It is essential to get a good multi.  Of course I can recommend many products, I can support only a few and I can take even fewer myself and if I won’t take it, then you shouldn’t either.  Without a doubt I am going to shamelessly self promote here, but try our Essential Multi’s as they are powders in an instant desolving capsule.

3. Thermogenics / Fat Burners – Well this one is the easiest to answer.  Get one. They are great aids in fat loss.  Remember this is not a “magic” pill, but rather a supplement or aid in your fat loss goals.  Note: there are burners for guys and weight loss products or women.  There is a BIG difference!  Some formulas for guys are too darn strong and all about the BUZZ for girls and it can leave you (women) felling wired and wigged out.  Again a powder in a capsule is the ticket, take it 2+ times per day and don’t waste your money.

SUPPLEMENTS OF BENEFIT:

• Creatine – yeah that sounds odd, but if you are into extreme dieting you need muscle retention to keep the metabolism pumping
• Flax Seed Oils
• Fish Oils
• L-Carnitine
• Coffee, coffee, coffee, buzz, buzz, buzz
• Green tea
• Green tea extract
• Yohimbine
• 5-HTP
• Synephrine
• HCA
• ALA

This list can honestly be exhaustive and go on and on, but you get the idea.  Designer blends are your best bet for fat loss supplements.  The reason, they have done all their research and bring pretty potent fat burners to market to save you time and money searching for the right ingredients, blends and bottles so you don’t have to.

You can get great products all over the place online, offline, from a buddy or MLM program, but I recommend this.  Don’t buy the cheapest product, don’t buy the most expensive product you will be “ripped off” (not ripped) at both ends,  But middle of the bunch in terms of brand and price and you tend to be getting exactly what you are paying for.
