weight loss physiology

Yes, we are different

Differing from males for obvious reasons, a female’s genetic makeup and physical attributes enable her to carry a baby to term if pregnancy occurs. As a result, women have more enzymes for fat storage and less for fat burning. So naturally there is a predisposition for women to carry more body fat than men.

It’s not fair but that’s what makes us unique! Adding to the potential for additional body weight, we have to deal with monthly menstruation cycles, water retention and bloating – all of which impact our overall weight-loss efforts. Luckily, SLIMQUICK® Weight Loss caplets, Weight Loss packets and All Natural were designed with females in mind. Many of these unisex weight-loss aids are far too high in certain stimulants for a woman’s body and as a result, female users can end up experiencing that uncomfortable jittery feeling, even after their very first serving!

Most weight-loss pills don’t account for the differences in vitamin and mineral requirements women have. New research shows specific vitamins and minerals are needed to optimize weight loss. For instance, the daily intake requirement of calcium for a woman is 1000 mg and by skimping, your body may not look, feel or perform at its best. Accordingly, studies show that a diet higher in calcium supports optimum weight loss. Since it’s evident that men and women differ, don’t you think our supplements should be equally diverse?
