The nutrients essential for successful weight loss
To lose weight it is essential to burn fat. The combustion takes place at the heart of every cell of the body in the mitochondria, the actual furnace body.
For this combustion takes place optimally, lipid metabolism must be supported by a sufficient intake of certain vitamins and minerals, directly involved in fat burning.
Vitamins and minerals fat burners:
Vitamin C:
It plays an indispensable role in the production of norepinephrine, a hormone that can effectively burn fat for energy. Vitamin C is also involved in the production of carnitine, a substance which transports fat molecules from blood to mitochondria to be converted into energy.
It also acts on the connective tissue in the cleansing of toxins, which has the effect of improving the lymphatic circulation and helps eliminate cellulite and strengthen the skin tissue.
Tip:
Daily consumption of 1 to 2 g of vitamin C in supplement form. The ideal is to drink a glass of fresh citrus juice (with pulp) or eat an orange or a grapefruit, at the same time as we take the vitamin. You can also squeeze a lemon in the glass of water we consume to take the vitamin. In this way it provides the body good amounts of bioflavonoids, which increase significantly the action of vitamin C.
