Product Description

If this negatively impacts your ability to maintain a healthy weight‚ you may want to take control of your eating habits. You can do this by counting calories and limiting your intake of simple carbs that don't fill you up; however‚ this is unlikely to completely subdue the cravings that make you want to head for the bag of chips or box of cookies. Fortunately‚ there are some natural supplements that may be able to help. CarbCrave Complex by Pure Encapsulations has been specifically designed to support a healthy appetite. Some of the ingredients work by improving mood‚ which may decrease stress-related eating.Recommended use: 2 capsules, 3 times per day, with or before meals, or as directed by a healthcare professional.

**What Is It?** CarbCrave Complex is designed to help lessen appetite and curb excessive carbohydrate intake by supporting healthy brain chemistry and mood.*
Uses For CarbCrave Complex Lessens Cravings: CarbCrave Complex supports healthy neurotransmitter metabolism, affecting the appetite and mood centers of the brain. 5-HTP is a precursor for serotonin, the same neurotransmitter released by the consumption of carbohydrates and associated with enhanced mood. At the same time, dl-phenylalanine supports dopamine and epinephrine production, responsible for the sensation of well-being. Vitamin B6 is integral as a cofactor for neurotransmitter synthesis. Rhodiola and ashwagandha are believed to encourage the activities of these neurotransmitters while strengthening the body's resistance to stress and fatigue, common triggers for undesirable eating behaviors. Research indicates that SensorilTrim ashwagandha promotes relaxation and maintains healthy cortisol levels. It is these actions that may be responsible for its supportive effects on glucose and fat metabolism. Both chromium picolinate and Relora have demonstrated the potential to promote more healthful patterns of carbohydrate and energy intake in adult subjects. In one study involving 49 volunteers prone to eating under stress, Relora helped reduce stress-related snacking of sweets by 76%. In another trial, chromium picolinate supplementation helped reduce carbohydrate intake and mood fluctuations.* Cravings and appetite are influenced by many factors, only some of which may be affected by the ingredients in this formula.
