Supplement FAQs

I've heard that if you eat a balanced diet you don't have to take supplements. Is that true?

It is virtually impossible to get all the nutrients your body requires on a daily basis just from food. We need at least 20+ mineral, 13 vitamins, 8 essential amino acids and 2 essential fatty acids every day.

Most people's diets tend to lack many of these nutrients particularly the vitamins and minerals and omega 3 fatty acids.

As a results, it is essential to supplement your diet with these nutrients.

XLR8 Thermogenic

How many should be taken and when?
1 capsule with breakfast and lunch or before any exercise. Do not take it later than 4:00pm

How long can it be taken for?
XLR8 Thermogenic can be taken daily for a maximum 8 weeks followed by a 2-week break.

Is it safe?
The ingredients in XLR8 Thermogenic are proven to be safe. However, people under the age of 18, the elderly, pregnant women or those predisposed to high blood pressure or who use thyroid medication or MAO inhibitors should avoid using this product.

How does it work?
XLR8 Thermogenic is a fat burner and works by stimulating the central nervous system (CNS) and the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) in the body. It boosts the metabolism which increases calorie expenditure making fat burning easier.

XLR8 Thermogenic also provides ingredients to give you that energy boost.

What results can I expect?
Results vary from person to person but most people achieve weight losses of around 0.5-1kg per week when they combine XLR8 Thermogenic and the products in MultiSlim with the nutrition and exercise advice outline in the MultiSlim weight-loss guide. Initial results often tend to exceed this figure mainly due to losses of excess fluid.

Do I need to exercise when I use XLR8 Thermogenic?
It is not essential to exercise when using XLR8 Thermogenic but for maximum results some exercise should be performed.

What makes XLR8 better than other thermogenics (fat burners) on the market?
All the ingredients in XLR8 Thermogenic are classified as ‘thermogenics’, which are designed to speed up the metabolism and help burn fat faster. Some thermogenics only contain a few thermogenic ingredients combined with cheaper ‘thermogenic-support’ ingredients.

GI Factor

What is GI Factor and how does it work?
GI Factor is a glucose and cravings manager. It is designed to help your body maintain a stable blood glucose (sugar) level by disposing of excess glucose from your blood stream. It works by making the insulin receptors on body cells more sensitive to the action of insulin.

How can GI Factor assist with losing weight?
By making your blood glucose level stable, less insulin is produced by your pancreas. By keeping insulin secretion low, your body is able to access and utilise fat as a fuel source more effectively.

Plus, since insulin promotes fat storage in the body, keeping it low will reduce your body’s tendency to store body fat. Furthermore, a stable blood glucose level means cravings will be reduced.

Cravings generally result from a low blood glucose level.

When should I take GI Factor?
GI Factor should be taken with lunch and dinner. These are likely the two largest meals of the day and generally contain the most carbohydrates. Therefore, taking GI Factor with these meals will help dispose of the excess glucose, keep insulin low and prevent the possible energy slumps and sugar cravings that often follow a few hours after these meals.

Why don’t I have GI Factor with breakfast (or other meals)?
When you wake up in the morning after fasting for 6-8 hours whilst asleep, your blood glucose tends to be low and your liver glycogen (carbohydrate) stores are depleted.

As a result, when you have breakfast, the insulin spike that results will tend to promote the replenishment of your blood glucose and liver glycogen stores rather than promote fat storage. Therefore, it is not essential to take GI Factor with breakfast.

Are there other benefits from using GI Factor?
GI Factor offers users a range of health benefits. Not only does it assist your weight-loss efforts, but it may also reduce your risk of a range of diseases associated with high levels of glucose in the blood stream.

These include stroke, heart disease, diabetes and peripheral neuropathy to name a few. It also contains ingredients that have antioxidant capabilities, which means they may reduce the impact of free radicals in your body.

Can everyone use GI Factor?
Yes. GI Factor is safe for everyone to use.

How does GI Factor get rid of cravings?
Since cravings often result from a low blood glucose level, maintaining a stable blood glucose level may reduce cravings. One of the primary functions of GI Factor is maintaining a stable blood glucose level.

Do I need to cycle its use?
No. GI Factor may be used on a daily basis.

Can I use GI Factor on its own?
Yes. You can use GI Factor on its own, however, for weight-loss purposes it best to use it in combination with MultiBoost and XLR8 Thermogenic.
