Healthy weight loss support. For those seeking a more streamlined silhouette, Shape Shifter helps to increase the body’s metabolic rate safely, by increasing thermogenesis and insulin sensitivity, and controlling appetite without causing any stimulant-associated side effects.
Bitter Orange Extract – contains an active ingredient synephrine, which has been standardized and purified to primarily contain the naturally-occurring component p-synephrine while having negligible amounts of the synthetic compound m-synephrine. P-synephrine is widely used to increase fat burning during exercise helping to achieve effective body fat/weight loss reduction1. Unlike p-synephrine, m-synephrine is undesirable because it can lead to unwanted side effects.
Green Tea Extract – natural herbal extracts demonstrate powerful antioxidant and antiinflammatory properties which support the body’s natural defenses against oxidative damage. It also helps to support thermogenesis and the metabolic rate while also reducing fasting blood glucose levels2,3. Our green tea extract is decaffeinated, which makes this formula suitable for individuals with sensitivity to caffeine.
Naringin & Citrus Bioflavonoids – antioxidant-rich compounds found in grapefruit and many other citrus fruits. Research shows that these bioflavonoids may be able to modulate signalling pathways involved in glucose uptake and insulin sensitivity4.
