ActivAMP AMP-K Stimulator 225 mg - 60 capsules

Introducing a new herbal extract that activates the body's metabolic master switch to help burn fat and provide greater energy and vitality: Swanson's ActivAMP AMP-K Stimulator. Scientists have discovered that many of the benefits of various types of exercise stem from the activity of a single enzyme known as 5' adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase, or AMP-k, often referred to as the "metabolic master switch." During exercise, physical stress on muscles and bones triggers the upregulation of a series of proteins known as sestrins, which in turn activate the enzyme AMP-k. When AMP-k is activated, it sets off a cascade of metabolic effects that affect fat burning, cholesterol synthesis, and insulin sensitivity. The net result is improved muscle performance, reduced body fat, and optimized metabolic activity.

ActivAMP is a powerful herbal extract that activates the enzyme AMP-k, similar to exercise. It is derived from the plant Gynostemma pentaphyllum, an adaptogenic herb used for centuries as a longevity tonic in the mountainous regions of Southern China and Northern Vietnam, where it is known as the "herb of immortality." Scientists have identified natural saponins in gynostemma, known as damulins, that have been shown to activate AMP-k in phytochemical studies. In a double-blind study involving 80 overweight individuals, patients taking ActivAMP showed significant reductions in body fat, weight, and abdominal fat compared to placebo patients. But the benefits of ActivAMP go beyond expectations. By activating AMP-k, you can enjoy many of the metabolic benefits that you could otherwise only achieve through vigorous exercise.
