A gastric emptying study is a procedure that measures the speed with which food empties from the stomach and enters the small intestine. This is a vital part of feeling full (satiety) and over eating.

In order to assess the connection between stomach fullness and gastric emptying, 7 subjects – who had previously fasted prior to the study – were given Zotrim formulation on one occasion and placebo capsules of lactose on another occasion in a double blinded study.

Asked to drink 20ml of apple juice followed 15 minutes later by a further 400ml, their gastric volume was monitored through ultrasound measurement every 10 minutes until their stomachs had emptied.

Zotrim: average gastric emptying 58 minutes

Placebo: average gastric emptying 38 minutes

To begin with we recommend that you take just 2 of our herbal supplements before every meal. Not only will this give your body the time to adjust to our supplement, but it will also enable you to slowly begin changing your eating habits.

After completing your 2nd week, if you wish, you can progress to taking 3 tablets before every meal, though we do recommend that you do not exceed more than 9 tablets a day.

By simply watching your calorie intake, replacing high fat foods with low fat foods and following a healthy exercise programme, you can take control of your weight loss.

The simple answer is yes. Zotrim is made from 100% organic plant extracts, making it free from all animal matter and fats

Food consumption in front of the T.V is often a big reason for excess calorie consumption. For this reason the effect of TV viewing and Zotrim on subjects energy intake was explored with the help of 11 healthy adults.

Split into 2 groups, subjects were required to either take 2 Zotrim tablets or 2 placebo tablets in the morning as well as before lunch. 2 hours after eating, subjects were then exposed to a TV video or a blank screen were given the additional option of either reading/studying or having unlimited access to sugary foods. Their total energy intake during lunch and snacking was then measured.

Zotrim: energy intake dramatically reduced when watching TV

Placebo: energy intakes was significantly higher when subjects watched TV than when they chose not to

With Zotrim we can help you to manage how much you eat, but what you choose to eat and how you prepare it is still very important. You need to take control of your calorie intake and ensure you are not eating too much fat in your diet. To help you make the right food choices, try using the following tips:

Substitute high fat foods, such as full milk, cream, butter, cheese, fried food, crisps and nuts for their low fat alternatives: skimmed milk, low fat spreads and cheese, pastas, boiled potatoes and cereals.

Grill and boil rather than fry and roast.

Read labels on all pre-prepared foods. If it is high in fat, look for a low fat option.

Begin your day with a good breakfast and try not to miss meals.

Why not include a HydroxyBurn or Body protein shake to fast track your health and lifestyle goals.

Remember: alcoholic drinks contain calories so monitor your consumption.

Following years of intensive research by Dr Lasse Hessel at Cornell University, Middlesex Hospital and clinics across Denmark and France, our herbal supplement has successfully undergone 9 clinical trials, each proving that Zotrim does work.

Our 3 plant extracts – Yerba Mate, Guarana and Damiana – have been used for centuries to help encourage natural appetite suppression, stimulation and invigoration amongst tribes in South America. At Zotrim we are the first to combine these 3 key ingredients to form what you know as Zotrim today.

Zotrim is 100% natural, meaning no matter your weight loss goals you can continue to take Zotrim for as long as you need. A healthy rate of weight loss is 0.5 to 0.9kgs, so depending on your target it could take you more than several months to reach your desired weight.

However, once you have reached this goal you can safely continue taking Zotrim to help maintain your weight loss or alternatively you can stop. Should you find that you begin to put on weight though you can start taking Zotrim again until you are confident you are back in control

As a general rule the more overweight you are, the more you can expect to lose whilst on a weight loss management programme, and vice versa. It is all dependent upon you, your body and your circumstances.

However we know from our clinical trials that whilst taking Zotrim you can experience an average weight loss of 5 kgs in 6 weeks, with a healthy rate of weight loss of 0.5-0.9kgs a week. With many of our Zotrim customers, they have begun experiencing weight loss from their 2nd week of trying our supplement.

In the study, few side effects were notated from the use of Zotrim. It does contain caffeine which can cause headaches or nausea in some individuals. Increased amounts of caffeine through sodas or coffee should be minimized while using Zotrim to avoid those side effects or even control insomnia. It is scientifically backed and does promote the slowing of stomach empting so anyone that has digestive disorders or takes in high fatty content meals on a daily basis should use caution. Zotrim is taken just before a meal and signals the brain that the stomach is full, which leads the dieter to eat much less than normal.

Remember that Zotrim can help you:

• Eat 18% less
• Lose 5% of your body weight in 6 weeks
• Reduce your waist by 4.3cm in just 4 weeks

Zotrim promotes energy through the ingredients that it contains. Guarana is a natural appetite suppressant and also helps the body burn fat faster. The greater the body’s metabolism the less calories or fat that are sent to storage, which are those love handles. Instead the body uses up the energy leaving minimal for fat stores. Yerba Mate is a natural energy source, which helps with implementing an exercise plan. Many people complain that they are tired all the time or just do not have the energy to exercise, so that is the reason that a product hosting Yerba Mate is an excellent choice. Another positive of the Yerba Mate is that it holds more antioxidants than even Green Tea, which is known to reduce cell damage within the body and promote cellular repair. Not only is that good for overall health, but also the aging process. Damiana is also found in Zotrim and has been documented to actually kill off or reduce the number of harmful bacteria found in the body. It has also been documented that Damiana has been used in Africa for decades as a diuretic, which is well documented in successful weight loss. Bacteria are a normal part of life, but when they are found in excess throughout the body and digestive system they can create a host of problems. Some even believe that the presence of high levels of bacteria can cause trouble for those attempting to lose weight. A 2001 study published in the Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics found that the combination of the three ingredients, Damiana, Yerba Mate and Guarana actually delays the emptying of the stomach and help dieters feel full longer! That is a huge breakthrough in science because hunger pains are generally what lead individuals away from a diet!
