Capsimax Clinical Research

Over 90 human clinical studies have studied the natural properties of capsaicinoids and draw the same conclusion – when used alone and/or in combination with other ingredients capsaicinoids support healthy weight management. However, to gain the bene?ts associated with capsaicinoids from food alone one would need to ingest 10 grams of red hot peppers every day. Capsimax solves that problem.

Capsimax Technology

Proprietary Capsimax Capsicum Extract employs OmniBead Beadlet Technology – a patented “smart” coating system that encapsulates the bene?cial heat of concentrated, highly active, natural capsicum to deliver effective levels of capsaicinoids without the oral and gastric burning sensation of unprotected red hot peppers.

Capsaicinoids – Naturally functional ingredients for healthy weight management

Capsaicinoids are the bioactive and pungent principles in red hot pepper. Over 90 human clinical studies with more than 1000 subjects of varying ages, body weights and populations have studied the naturally functional properties of capsaicinoids and draw the same conclusion – when used alone and/or in combination with other ingredients capsaicinoids support healthy weight management.

Capsaicinoids are natural but they’re hot…too hot to handle.

Capsaicinoids are hot and consuming 10 g daily for their health bene?ts can severely irritate the GI tract. Unprotected capsicum extract is also difficult to handle in formulations and production, as airborne particles can irritate of the eyes, skin and respiratory system and may lead to cross-contamination during the formulating and manufacturing processes.

Get all the weight management benefits of capsaicinoids without the burn. Just 2 mg of capsaicinoids from 100 mg of clinically-studied Capsimax delivers bene?ts such as helping to promote lipolysis and supporting the mobilization of fats for energy production.
