Thermogenics

When it comes to supplements, one of the best-selling categories are thermogenics (or you may know them more commonly referred to as “fat burners”). A survey conducted showed that of those who were trying to lose weight, more than 30% used a thermogenic supplement of some sort to help speed up their weight loss progress. What exactly is the purpose of thermogenics? As the name would imply (thermo), they are used to increase heat production in the body, or also known as thermogenesis. This generally takes place by increasing the metabolic rate so that energy is produced from the utilization of food consumed and also from what is stored in the body (such as body fat for example).
