If you live the keto lifestyle then you know that limiting your intake of carbs is the most important thing. As soon as you consume too many carbohydrates, you break ketosis. This is a big setback because it takes a lot of time to get back into ketosis.
Pure keto drops is packed with a whole lot of herbs for each 1ml droplet to help you stay on track and stay keto! The mineral chromium is a staple in this formula as it helps to reduce hunger and sugar cravings to control your appetite. Chromium plays a role in regulating glucose and insulin, assisting with the action of insulin to remove sugar from the bloodstream and put it into the muscle and boosting metabolism. Chromium has also been shown to improve insulin sensitivity which is helpful for overall weight loss as you have better control over the carbs that you eat [1]. Proper insulin control is also beneficial for when you break keto or finish your diet phase. Insulin sensitivity has also been linked to regional body fat distribution, particularly around the abdomen[2][3][4][5].
To further help suppress appetite and curb hunger we added various other herbs. Gymnema sylvestre extract to help with sugar cravings[6]. Coleus forskohlii extract helps decrease overall appetite by regulating the hormone production of ghrelin[7]. Capsicum annuum extract is part of the capsaicin family. It has been known to decrease appetite for many years. Capscicum is know to increase glucagon-like-peptide 1 supressing appetite, decrease ghrelin further supressing appetite, and acts as an anorexigenic hormone(satiety hormone) increasing satiety[8]. Grape seed extracts increase glucagon-like-peptide 1 supressing appetite more[9]. Panax ginseng root extract and raspberry ketones helps to further supress appetite[10][11][12].
To help with energy we added Eleutherococcus senticosus. Eleutherococcus senticosus helps by increasing oxygen consumption as well as the use of fatty acids as an energy source[13][14]. Guarana seeds are known as herbal stimulants containing twice the concentration of caffeine compared to a coffee bean[15][16]. Green tea extracts were added for a little added caffeine boost[17]. Maca root has been shown to increase energy in long distance athlete improving the aerobic system[18].
Finally, we added l-carnitine to help facilitate fat loss and improve blood flow. Carnitine helps by transporting fatty acids into the mitochondria for fatty acid oxidation(β-oxidation). This can be helpful because increased fatty acid oxidation is the result of entering ketosis which is the entire purpose of a keto diet.
