Thermogenesis is the creation of heat in the body. It occurs when you eat and when you exercise, but also through an extraordinary mechanism involving brown adipose tissue (BAT), which permits the production of heat directly from body fat by bypassing the steps of the energy cycle (1).
A hibernating bear, for example, can lose 300 pounds of fat while it sleeps through the winter. Its body converts body fat to BAT, then creates the heat required to prevent freezing Continue reading → Thermogenesis for Visceral Fat Loss

One of the main reasons people do Cleanse Days is to accelerate fat loss, and it is well known that exercise can boost these efforts. So it seems intuitive that exercise would be a good thing, right? Not necessarily. It turns out that intense exercise on Cleanse Days may do more harm than good.
Because low-calorie Cleanse Days do not provide protein and carbohydrates in levels that support optimal post-exercise repair and recovery, exercising at a very high intensity can potentially bring

Listen in as Dr. Eric Gumpricht reviews the details of the clinical study using Isagenix products that was performed by researchers at UIC. This study has been published in two prestigious academic journals and recently earned recognition at a renowned scientific conference. The science supports what we have known all along--the Isagenix 30-Day Cleansing and Fat Burning System works!

Dermatologists have long advised the use of sunscreen to protect the skin from sun damage and indicate the importance of wearing it daily (see here and here). Now, a new study offers even more undeniable reason to slather on the protecting lotion every day—to help preserve our skin's youthful glow.
The study, published in the Annals of Internal Medicine, is the first of its kind done in humans to show sunscreen's actual effect on the appearance of skin over time.

Vitamin B12 is the big man on campus. That’s to say that when compared to other vitamins, B12’s chemical structure—containing a bulky metal ion of cobalt at its center—is huge and elaborate.
The vitamin, also known as cobalamin, can even bend, twist, and fold leading scientists to stare in awe at its fantastic abilities through 3-D imaging (1). Yet, despite its size, B12 is crucial for chemical reactions in both metabolizing food for energy and for detoxifying the potentially harmful
