One of the big challenges when trying to lose weight is our brain. Â We may experience an exaggerated appetite or cravings, which can sabotage any weight loss goal.
Most weight loss programs are focused on caloric restriction and providing medications, one being  phentermine for appetite suppression.  A safer, more effective alternative is Amino Acid Therapy (AAT) can be very helpful for appetite suppression for weight loss.
The goal in weight loss is not to restrict calories which will only result in slowing the metabolism and rebound weight gain, but to change the metabolic hormones. Â Phentermine is amphetamine and is not only unhealthy to take, but as soon as you stop it, the appetite comes back with a vengeance.
Amino Acid Therapy (AAT) is helpful in reducing the cravings for sugar and refined carbohydrates. Â AAT influences and balances the neurotransmitters in the brain to help you avoid temptations and refined carbohydrates. When we eat refined processed foods, sweets, and desserts there is a rise in dopamine. Â This increase in dopamine makes us want to eat that same food item again and again.
If we can balance dopamine with AAT, then the cravings for the refined carbohydrates decline.  AAT also balances the serotonin in our systems as well.  By raising or restoring serotonin, you can reduce your cravings for processed foods.  AAT is a powerful tool and is also used for other conditions such as Crohn’s disease and Parkinson’s disease, helpful in weening off anti-depressants.
The AAT we utilize is based on the work of Dr. Marty Hintz. Â For more information about AAT you can visit neurosupport.com. Â AAT needs to be managed by a professional healthcare practitioner, but it is a very safe with little to no negative side effects and is not habit-forming.
