The invention is both a composition and a method for promoting weight loss in mammals, for promoting thermogenesis in mammals, for increasing metabolism and boosting energy levels in mammals, promoting appetite suppression in mammals, for promoting lean muscle mass in mammals and for a diet supplement. The primary mechanism of action for the invention is that it increases norepinephrine levels, which promotes a rise in metabolism, thus leading to more calories burned and more energy expended primarily through the burning or metabolism of adipose tissue (fat) through lipolysis, without the destruction or metabolism of muscle tissue.
The present invention relates to a nutritional supplement composition, and the methods for the administration thereof, comprising of (1) an effective amount of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), the chemical name of which has been described as ((2R,3R)-2-(3,4,5-Trihydroxyphenyl)-3,4-dihydro-1[2H]-benzopyran-3,5,7-triol 3-(3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoate), and (2) various other substances (singly or in any combination thereof), which either (a) inhibit cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) phosphodiesterase, (b) stimulate lipolysis, (c) stimulate thermogenesis (i.e., increase metabolism) (d) and/or increase norepinephrine levels, or (e) any combination thereof.
In a preferred embodiment, the basic invention is a composition, and a method for the administration thereof, comprising effective amounts of epigallocatechin gallate, caffeine, and l-tyrosine.
本发明既是一种组合物,也是一种方法,可用于促进哺乳动物减肥、促进哺乳动物产热、提高哺乳动物的新陈代谢和能量水平、促进哺乳动物食欲抑制、促进哺乳动物瘦肌肉质量,也是一种饮食补充剂。本发明的主要作用机理是提高去甲肾上腺素水平,促进新陈代谢,从而主要通过脂肪分解燃烧或代谢脂肪组织(脂肪)来消耗更多卡路里和更多能量,而不破坏或代谢肌肉组织。
本发明涉及一种营养补充剂组合物及其施用方法,该组合物包括(1)有效量的表没食子儿茶素没食子酸酯(EGCG),其化学名称已被描述为((2R,3R)-2-(3,4,5-三羟基苯基)-3,4-二氢-1[2H]-苯并吡喃-3,5,7-三醇 3-(3,4,5-三羟基苯甲酸酯),以及 (2) 其他各种物质(单独使用或任意组合使用),这些物质(a) 可抑制环磷酸腺苷(cAMP)磷酸二酯酶,(b) 可刺激脂肪分解,(c) 可刺激产热(即 "产热")。e.,(d) 和/或增加去甲肾上腺素水平,或 (e) 以上任何组合。
在一个优选的实施方案中,本发明是一种组合物及其施用方法,其中包含有效量的表没食子儿茶素没食子酸酯、咖啡因和 l-酪氨酸。
