fücoTHIN™ is a natural, whole food based supplement that is made with a proprietary concentration of fucoxanthin combined with pomegranate seed oil, for a patent-pending formula that is naturally thermogenic. fücoTHIN™ has been studied by leading scientists for many years and is the only formula that has human clinical research to confirm its thermogenic effect.

Who will benefit from using fücoTHIN™? Anyone who is seeking to manage body fat and support a healthy metabolic rate while following a balanced diet and a regular exercise regimen.

What is thermogenesis? Thermogenesis is the process by which the body increases its metabolic rate, requiring utilization of internal stores of energy, such as fat. fücoTHIN™ supports the metabolism or breakdown of fat in white adipose tissue, including belly fat, without stimulating the central nervous system. (Along with a calorie conscious diet and exercise.)

What is fucoxanthin? Fucoxanthin is a carotenoid (like lutein and lycopene), which is a powerful antioxidant that protects cells from free-radical damage. It is the pigment that gives brown seaweed its characteristic color and also participates in photosynthesis (the conversion of light into energy). It is found in several different types of brown seaweed. Marine vegetables (edible seaweed) have long been considered among the most nutritious vegetation on Earth, and have been included in the diets of various Asian cultures since ancient times. Epidemiological studies strongly suggest that the consumption of marine vegetables in this population may be a contributing factor to their good health. Fucoxanthin is the first marine algae-derived ingredient with clinically proven thermogenic effect. It is also known for its powerful antioxidant effect that protects cells from free radical damage. fücoTHIN™ contains an all-natural food concentrate of fucoxanthin from specially cultivated strains of brown marine vegetables grown in pristine waters off the Canary Islands.

What are the benefits of pomegranate seed oil? Pomegranate fruit seeds are the source of an oil that has a unique fatty acid composition. This unusual fatty acid, punicic acid or conjugated linolenic acid, works synergistically with fucoxanthin to support natural thermogenesis.

FucoThin (Garden of Life) - Average rating (2 reviews)  - Write a review Show Reviews Reviews February 10, 2008 Reviewer: A customer in Massachusetts I was pleasantly surprised that this product actually worked and although I don't like the "do nothing and still lose weight attitude", that is what actually happened. I was extremely busy at work this past month, and had no time to exercise and pay a lot attention to what I was eating (I know, bad excuse), and I still managed to lose 3.5 lbs in two weeks which is fantastic for me (I never lose weight otherwise without exercising and easting healthy). Basically, I was taking this product diligently as is says you should take it for 6 weeks before you see an effect; So I figured by the time my busy season was over at work and I would hit the gym again, this product should be kicking in and accelerating my results if it worked as well as advertised. Well, I was pleasantly surprised that it worked earlier and without much effort as evidenced by my 3.5 lbs loss... So now, with my busy season finally over, I just started working out again. I don't know the effect yet of taking this while working out, but I am hopeful it will give me an extra edge based on my previous results... Was this review helpful to you? Yes  No February 16, 2008 Reviewer: Angela in Illinois I realize everyone's biochemistry is different but I have to tell ya, all I lost with this stuff was 35.00 bucks from my wallet. I wasn't expecting miracles. I follow a healthy low carb regimen and walk 2 miles daily. I just wanted something to augment my weight loss program. I didn't see any difference after taking the full bottle and increasing dosage over time as recommended. Was this review helpful to you? Yes  No
