Description

Fat & Carb Control is an integral part of the True Essentials Weight Management System. Based on clinically tested research, this formula helps reduce the absorption of carbohydrates and fats. Studies show that the ingredients in this product block and bind approximately 30% to 40% of ingested carbohydrates and fat.

Fat & Carb Control assists in weight management, especially when used in conjunction with a program of reduced calorie intake and increased physical activity. Using extracts from kidney beans, wheat seeds and plants, it acts to reduces the digestion of starches and binds to fats in order to prevent their absorption.  By increasing the elimination of ingested fats from your body and reducing the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates, this supplement can help to reduce your caloric intake and help you to reach your weight management goals and maintain a optimal health.

Common Questions

Q: When is the best time to take the Fat & Carb Control capsules?
A: It is best to take the Fat and Carb Control supplement 30 minutes before eating, but you may also take them with your meal or soon afterward. You may take 1 to 3 capsules at a time, and up to 9 capsules per day.

Q: I have noticed an increase in intestinal gas when using this product. What can I do to prevent this from happening?
A: The production of intestinal gas is actually a sign that the product is working. With gas, the body increases its fluid intake to help move foods through the digestive system and keep the intestines clean. The body can adapt over time, and the gas will decrease. You may also notice larger stools when using this product, which is another sign that the product is working.

Q: How does Fat & Carb Control help me lose weight?
A: Fat & Carb Control contains two natural ingredients that absorb a portion of the fat you eat and two ingredients that absorb a portion of the carbohydrates. Your body does not digest the fats and carbohydrates that are absorbed by the Fat & Carb Control ingredients so that they do not contribute to your caloric intake. Neopuntia™ is a fiber sourced from the leaf of Opuntia ficus‐indica that binds with fat and helps block its absorption by the body. Cassia Nomame is a fruit from a native Chinese plant that blocks 20 to 30 percent of the fat you eat during a meal. Similarly, Phase2™, derived from white kidney beans, and Alpha Trim™, derived from wheat seed, help block the absorption of starches.

Q: Can I take this product with other True Essentials products?
A: Yes, the supplements are designed to be complementary and work together to provide you with a variety of valuable nutrients and resulting benefits.  We recommend that you review your supplement regimen with your health care practitioner.

Q: If I take three capsules per day, how many calories will get blocked?
A: There are many variables, including the ratio of fats to carbohydrates in your diet, that influence exactly how many calories get blocked. We estimate that approximately 150 calories can be blocked per day that when you take Fat & Carb Control as directed. A pound of fat is equivalent to about 3500 calories. Taken consistently, you may prevent the digestion of approximately ten pounds of weight over the course of a year. Clinical trials have shown that it is typical to lose about one to two pounds per month with this formulation.

Q: Does Fat & Carb Control contain gluten?
A: Most of the True Essentials products are gluten-free, however Fat & Carb Control may contain a small amount of gluten.

Q: Who should take the Fat & Carb Control supplement?
A: This product is designed for adults who want to manage their weight. It can help prevent that little bit of extra weight that seems to creep up on us each year as we age or it can be part of a focused weight loss program. Teenagers can also take this product under the supervision of their parents and with the approval of their doctor. People who eat fats and carbohydrates regularly will benefit the most from consistent use of this product.

Q: Is it okay to use all of the TE Weight Management Products?

A: Our suite of weight management products are intended to be used in combination. Do obtain your doctors guidance if you are taking prescription medications or have a medical condition.   Here are some suggestions for how you might use our products. 

You may take Fat & Carb Control up to 30 minutes before eating a meal with fat and/or carbohydrates in it.  You can take up to 3 capsules with a meal, up to 3 times per day.  There is no benefit to taking more than 9 per day.  This supplement helps to block the metabolism/absorption of fats and carbohydrates, so that you do not receive all the calories contained in a meal which contains these macronutrients. 
 
The suggested use for Boost & Burn is to take one mid-morning and another one with lunch or in the early afternoon.  Boost & Burn has caffeine in it, so do not take it too late in the day. 

Crave Control with Hoodia has no caffeine, so you might want to take Boost & Burn mid morning & with lunch or early afternoon - and take the Crave Control with Hoodia before lunch and then again in the later afternoon or evening if you get the munchies at those times.  These are just suggestions.  You may adjust how you take them, of course, to fit your needs and lifestyle.  I do recommend that you take both of these supplements as regularly (daily) as possible for maximum benefits.
 
The Whey Protein Shake and/or Vegan Protein Shake can be used one or two times per day.  It can be used as a snack or as a meal replacement.  Athletes often take whey protein within 20 minutes of a strength training workout in order to build maximum muscle.  Because it is advisable to get about 30 grams of protein in the morning in order to have lasting fullness throughout your day (more even blood sugar), the Protein Shake is a perfect solution.  If you mix it with some milk, then you will achieve 30 grams of protein.  If you blend the Protein Shake with some whole fruit (use frozen fruit or add some ice) and also eat an egg or a few nuts, then you will have a great, nutritious start for your day.  These ideas work for a lunch replacement as well.  When you want or need a snack to carry you between meals, then a simple Protein Shake can offer a low calorie, yet satisfying, option.   It can be the solution to a "chocolate" craving, if needed.

Energizer Tea may be used daily or occasionally.  It may be mixed to your taste preference; add more or less water to suit your taste preference.  You might like to add some additional stevia or some lemon, lime or peach juice.  Another option is to add some Energizer Tea into your Protein Shake. Keep in mind that Energizer Tea and Boost & Burn both provide some caffeine, so we do not recommend their use after about 3 in the afternoon, and we also suggest that you use them to replace other sources of caffeine in your diet.   

Fiber Powder has has a slightly sweet taste and is easy to mix into food or drink, hot or cold, such as oatmeal, yogurt, cereal, Energizer Tea, Protein Shake, etc. The recommended intake of fiber is 25 to 35 grams of fiber daily.  Each serving of Fiber Powder provides 5 grams.  It is best to ease into using the fiber.  We recommend that you begin by using one serving per day and then increase to two after your system adjusts to one serving per day.
