Metabolism stimulants
What are metabolism stimulants?
Metabolism stimulants are food supplements formulated to support energy metabolism, increase caloric expenditure and promote the use of fat as an energy source during physical activity. They are designed for anyone looking to improve their body composition and optimise training performance, always as part of a varied and balanced diet and an active lifestyle.
What are the main ingredients and product types?
This category brings together supplements based on natural compounds with thermogenic and stimulant properties, including:
- Caffeine: one of the most researched stimulants, it helps improve concentration and endurance during exercise.
- Green tea extract (EGCG): rich in catechins and caffeine, it supports energy metabolism and has antioxidant properties.
- Guarana: a natural source of slow-release caffeine, useful for sustaining energy and vitality throughout the day.
- Bitter orange (synephrine): a thermogenic ingredient often found in weight management and muscle definition formulas.
- Capsaicin and cayenne pepper: natural active compounds that support thermogenesis and normal lipid metabolism.
- Multi-ingredient formulas: thermogenic stacks combining multiple stimulants in synergy for an enhanced effect.
When and how should you take them?
Metabolism stimulants are generally taken in the morning or before training to make the most of their energising and thermogenic action. It is advisable to avoid taking them in the evening to prevent interference with night-time rest. Always follow the directions on the label, do not exceed the recommended dose and consult a healthcare professional if you have any health conditions. Remember: food supplements are not intended as a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
