Is it too good to be true that you can burn up to 500% more with fat burners? For legal issues, manufacturers are not permitted to make these bold claims on the bottles that they do work. However, companies can use other forms of strategic marketing to entice the consumer by luring vulnerable individuals with commercials, ads in newspapers and magazines.

The usage of fat burners induce thermogenesis. This is the process the body uses to burn fat by manipulating our metabolism. The derivative for thermo is heat and genesis is production. The most common ingredient on the market today is Ephedrine and referred as Ma Huang (an ancient Chinese herb). It has been around China for over 3000 years in preparation to help with colds, flu, asthma and allergies used as tea. Other common ingredients on the market are caffeine and aspirin.

I'll now be discussing about our nervous system such as our autonomic nervous system (ANS). The ANS helps regulate blood pressure, hearts activity, movement and work in the stomach, intestine/salivary glands, secretion of insulin, and sexual functions. The ANS is subdivided into 2 components which are the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and parasympathetic nervous system (PNS). The SNS is a excitatory system which meditates the body response to activity, stress, danger which includes increased heart rate, constriction of arterioles in skin, digestive system, and inhibition of digestive functions. The PNS is an inhibitory
