Lean Xtreme™
Reformulated Lean Xtreme™ and built upon the enduring 7-OH base that so many love, in order to formulate the next generation in non-stimulating fat burning products. While the original was undoubtedly effective, the new and improved Lean Xtreme™ targets multiple pathways to assist fat loss while also maintaining adequate testosterone levels and optimizing immune function in order to promote the ideal fat burning, muscle sparring environment.
Cortisol and Glucocorticoids
Cortisol is the body’s chief stress hormone, released constantly by the adrenals to deal with day to day stressors and released in excess during demanding situations of mental and physical strain.
Amongst its many functions, cortisol instructs the liver to release catabolic enzymes that breakdown fatty acids from fat stores and sugar from muscle cells in order to provide quick energy for the organs that need it. Similarly, mental stress can also lead to excess cortisol release, however unlike the fight or flight scenario which elevates cortisol for as long as it is required, the elevation of cortisol tends to be chronic. This is damaging to the body for a multitude of reasons.
The Damaging Side of Cortisol
Cortisol alters the way your body stores fat, essentially increasing levels of what is known as visceral adipose tissue (VAT), or in layman’s terms the solid belly fat that overweight men with tend to have. VAT is very difficult to lose when cortisol levels remain excessive and the issue is further compounded by cortisol’s effect on the thyroid gland.
As most people know, thyroid output is directly correlated with metabolic rate, governing both muscle building (via protein synthesis) and also fat burning. High stress levels from increased cortisol levels can exhaust the adrenals and negatively impact the release of thyroid hormones T3 and T4.
Cortisol can also have a pronounced impact on appetite,affect bone density, suppress the immune system, and negatively affect cognitive performance such as memory and quick thinking.
Introducing the New & Improved Lean Xtreme™
The brand new Lean Xtreme™ is designed to combat all of the issues outlined above, while also enhancing fat loss efforts and lean muscle preservation. The formula comprises of the tried and true as well as the new and advanced. First, 7-OH for cortisol control and thyroid enhancement. Next, we have added 5-AT™, another cortisol controller that works by influencing cytokines responsible for inflammation and cortisol signalling. Additionally, Forslean™ is added to improve body composition and signal optimal testosterone levels, and green tea extract is included for the myriad of benefits it confers and further immune enhancement.
Summary

7-OH™ is a versatile active ingredient in a product that should be regularly cycled in and out of your supplementary regimen.

Making use of Lean Xtreme™ during bulking phases removes the one step back, allowing you progress at an accelerated rate.
