Dieters experience drops in basal metabolic rate, in spite of daily exercise

Aug 8 2012

The International Association for the Study of Obesity has bad news for dieters: as reported in the New York Times, the commonly held belief that exercise is a magic metabolism booster may be largely unfounded. A new study finds that people who lost weight experienced drops in basal metabolic rate (BMR), in spite of daily exercise.    

This presents a maddening Catch-22: weight loss means lower BMR, and lower BMR means inhibited weight loss.

Does this mean weight loss efforts are doomed to fail? Not necessarily, says Scott Steil of Nutra Bridge. Nutra Bridge represents the patented ingredient 7-Keto®, which has captured national media attention for its metabolism-boosting effects. Minneapolis-based Humanetics Corporation is the exclusive patent-holder for 7-Keto®. The all-natural, stimulant-free ingredient has been clinically proven to boost metabolism rates, even among people losing weight via diet and exercise.

"It's extraordinary enough that 7-Keto® prevents drops in metabolism among these groups," said Steil. "The fact that it was actually found to increase metabolism in spite of weight loss is nothing short of groundbreaking."

How it works:

7-Keto is a naturally occurring metabolite in the human body, and it plays a key role in metabolic function by safely up-regulating key thermogenic enzymes. However, levels of 7-Keto decline rapidly with age and are 40% less at age 40, than atage 20. Supplementing with 7-Keto is an all-natural way to restore more youthful levels that can combat metabolic decline due to age or weight loss. As a supplement, 7-Keto® has been clinically shown to boost resting metabolic rate (RMR) 5.4% and produce 200% more weight loss over diet and exercise alone.

For people endeavoring to lose weight via diet and exercise, metabolic decline is certainly an unwelcome side effect. Fortunately, they don't have to passively accept metabolic decline -- not when 7-Keto® is available as a powerful partner.
