To help maintain weight goals, Thorne’s Weight Management Bundle contains three supplements with evidence-based ingredients that are effective for reducing hunger cravings, promoting energy, and supporting metabolism and insulin sensitivity. Metabolic Health contains curcumin and bergamot phytosomes which help to maintain a happy weight by supporting fat metabolism as well as support optimal cholesterol and blood sugar levels. Super EPA contains two omega-3 fatty acids – EPA and DHA. Omega-3s help maintain a normal inflammatory response throughout the body, including in the adipocytes (fat cells). A skewed inflammatory response in the fat cells can contribute to insulin resistance and obesity. Omega-3 fatty acids also support heart and brain health and promote a healthy insulin response. These two fatty acids support good circulation by promoting healthy blood vessels, enhancing blood flow by optimizing vascular endothelial function, and maintaining already normal triglyceride and cholesterol levels. FloraMend Prime Probiotic® contains three stable probiotic strains that promote overall digestive health and immune function. Its three probiotic strains resist destruction by stomach acid and need no refrigeration. Mounting evidence supports the positive influence of the gut microbiome in promoting weight management goals. What is the microbiome? It's the bacteria and other organisms that inhabit the gut, plus the genetic material associated with this bacteria. Animal and human studies demonstrate that lean individuals have different and more diverse types of bacteria than obese individuals. A human study on Lactobacillus gasseri (the predominant species in FloraMend) found an average 4.6-percent reduction in visceral and subcutaneous fat tissue with accompanying positive effects on body weight, waist circumference, and body mass index.
