Phentermine is most popular diet pill supplement on market today. Phentermine is generic name for ADIPEX-P and IONAMIN and it’s available in immediate release or time-release formulas. Immediate release pills enter your blood stream as soon as you take them and opposite time-release capsules release their medication into your body over an extended period of time, around 8 or 12 hours.

Always discuss your weight loss options with your doctor before taking any form of supplements or diet pills. Some weight loss pills react with commonly used over-the-counter medications and may have deadly side effects for users with certain health conditions.

Carbohydrates, especially simple carbs like sugar and starch, are quickly turned into sucrose by body entering blood stream quicker thereby causing release of large amounts of insulin. The fewer carbs are eaten, less insulin is produced by body, and fewer calories are stored as fat. Less fat storage equals less weight gain and fewer carbs eaten equals less insulin in blood and body using its fat stores for fuel.

The premise behind every low-carb diet plan is that a body that produces less insulin burns more fat than a body that produces lots of insulin. Some plans encourage a period of extremely low carbohydrate intake so that body will enter a state of ketosis and more quickly burn fat stores.

These are usually called induction periods. The length of extreme carb control varies from seven days to however long it takes you to reach your ideal weight. After this period of extremely low carb dieting, maintenance levels of carb consumption are followed to prevent weight gain. The amount of carb you can safely eat will depend on your unique body system. And you will probably have to experiment to find out what level of carb intake is best for you.

No matter what your carb intake, it will be lower than norm and you will still eliminate white flour and white flour products and certain other sugary and starchy foods. This is why these diet plans are known as low-carb lifestyles.

Low-carb success requires that you be willing to give up simple carbs for long-term.
