Plexus Slim is:
PRODUCT ACTIVE INGREDIENTS
Leveraging the research and experience of one of the world’s largest natural ingredient compounder, Plexus Slim harnesses the beneficial essence of 2 plant extract concentrates, provides proven effectiveness in slimming and provides beauty benefits. Compounded using a proprietary process, Plexus Slim possesses a unique composition. Its effectiveness has been clinically proven. The two principle active ingredients in Plexus Slim are derivatives of chlorogenic acid and oxypregnane steroidal glycoside. Among other mechanisms, these two ingredients provide:
Fat metabolism – Chlorogenic acids are one of the major classes of phenolic compounds. They are present in a large variety of fruits and vegetables. They largely occur conjugated with quinic acid as in chlorogenic acid.
Appetite management – Oxypregnane steroidal glycoside is a benign plant extract. Several varieties of the plant exist, however, one species in particular exhibits extraordinary appetite management qualities. 3β-[β-d-thevetopyranosyl-(1→4)-β-d- cymaropyranosyl-(1→4)-β-d-cymaropyranosyloxy-12β-tigloyloxy-14β-hydroxypregn-5-en-20-one.
Chlorogenic Acid
The benefits of Chlorogenic acids to our health have been demonstrated in numerous scientific studies. The study by Richelle et al. confirms the anti-oxidant power of Chlorogenic acids. Furthermore, it shows that the anti-oxidant power is approximately twice as superior to that of dark chocolate. The works of Bandyopadhyay et al. and Jiang et al. equally confirm the benefits of Chlorogenic acids to our health. Studies have shown that caffeic acid possesses a strong anti-oxidant power, notably limiting the oxidation of lipids in the liver. The Chlorogenic acid in Plexus Slim is a particular and unique composition and is guaranteed free of cafestol and kahweol and other harmful elements.
Oxypregnane Steroidal Glycoside
The hypothalamus is the part of the brain that regulates certain metabolic processes and other activities of the autonomic nervous system. It synthesizes and secretes neuro-hormones, often called hypothalamic-releasing hormones, and these in turn stimulate or inhibit the secretion of pituitary hormones. Its basic function is to control body temperature, hunger, thirst, fatigue, anger and circadian cycles (the body’s clock).
When food is consumed, blood sugar (glucose) levels increase, prompting the body to start sending signals to the brain that it is full. This causes the hypothalamus region of the brain to cease sending out signals that the body needs a further source of energy. Scientists in cooperation with the British company Phytopharm isolated a steroidal glycosie active ingredient they designated as P57. They discovered that the brain interprets the molecules in the chemical structure of P57 as molecules of glucose. This has the same effect on the hypothalamus as consuming large quantities of food.
The unique steroidal glycoside extract used in Plexus Slim is estimated to be 100,000 times more potent than glucose, so as soon as it is sensed by the hypothalamus, the body is ‘told’ that it is full, thus inhibiting overeating.
SUMMARY OF MOST RECENT CLINICAL TEST
A clinical study was conducted in 2008 from June through October. The study was conducted with 8 type 2 diabetes patients of mixed gender and age. While all patients carried excess weight to varying degrees, the primary purpose of this study was to see how well the product reduced glucose levels in Type 2 diabetics. The weight loss was a secondary consideration.
Study Results: All patients experienced improvement in the above listed areas and categories. Many times shedding the final 5–10 pounds of excess weight is the most difficult. It is important to note that even patients with relatively little excess weight (5–10 lbs) were able to shed these excess pounds.*

Block:
Experts typically point to the over consumption of simple
carbohydrates, sugars and starches as a primary culprit in our declining state
of health. The problem with these foods is that they are quickly converted to
glucose in the body, which spikes blood-sugar levels and ultimately contributes
a range of health problems, particularly over the long-term.
Plexus Block does just what its name suggests—it blocks
starches and sugars from converting to glucose in the body, thereby promoting
healthy blood sugar levels and contributing to an enhanced state of overall
wellness. Block slows the absorption of
starch and sugar for healthy glucose levels and reduces starch and sugar from
converting to glucose in the body by up to 48%.

Proprietary Blend
o
White Kidney Bean Extract – also known
as Phaseolus vulgaris, has been shown to inhibit the digestive enzyme amylase.
Amylase plays a key role in the digestion of foods. As a digestive enzyme,
amylase is required for the metabolism of starchy carbohydrates. Research
suggests that Phaseolus vulgaris extract, when taken before meals, may produce
decrements in body weight and decrements in fat mass in the face of maintained
lean body mass
o
InSea2® Brown Seaweed Blend (Ascophyllum
Nodosum, Fecus Vesiculosus) – is the only product on the market with a dual
mechanism of action that targets enzymes involved in carbohydrate digestion and
assimilation. Its dual action is a result of its ability to uniquely slow
carbohydrate digestion through interaction with both alpha-amylase
(starch-degrading enzyme) and alpha-glucosidase (sucrose-degrading enzyme).
This twofold activity helps reduce the impact of high-glycemic foods.
o
Brown Seaweed InSea2 is a clinically
tested blend of 20% purified polyphenols—more precisely phlorotannins
(PHTs)—sourced from Ascophyllum nodosum (kelp) and Fucus vesiculosus
(bladderwrack), two species of brown seaweed. Like many sea plants, these brown
seaweeds are a rich source of antioxidant phenolic compounds and iodine. The
ability of naturally occurring polyphenols and PHTs, including those from brown
seaweed, to affect the activities of alphaamylase and alpha-glucosidase enzymes
in vitro has been repeatedly demonstrated.

Other Ingredients
o
Microcrystalline Cellulose - is a term
for refined wood pulp and is used as a texturizer, an anti-caking agent, a fat
substitute, an emulsifier, an extender, and a bulking agent in food production.
The most common form is used in vitamin supplements or tablets.
o
Gelatin – is used for the capsules.
o
Magnesium Stearate – is a solid,
white powder at room temperature. It is a FDA-approved inactive ingredient
commonly used in the pharmaceutical industry as a diluent for the manufacture
of tablet, capsule, and powder dosage forms.
Magnesium stearate exists as a salt form and is used to help prevent
pharmaceutical ingredients from adhering to industry equipment. Magnesium stearate may be derived from both
plant and animal sources.
o
Silicon Dioxide - also known
as silica, is a chemical compound that is an oxide of silicon with the chemical
formula SiO2. It has been known since ancient times. Silica is most commonly
found in nature as quartz, as well as in various living organisms. In
pharmaceutical products, silica aids powder flow when tablets are formed.*
