Caffeine
Caffeine is known as a stimulant that helps many Dutch people to get up in the morning. But it can also be used as a supplement that can help with weight loss. Caffeine stimulates fat burning and metabolism. This means that your digestion goes faster both at rest and after consuming a meal. Your body uses extra calories for this, so that you lose weight faster.
Caffeine also has a thermogenetic effect: it ensures that your body is slightly warmer and it needs more energy to produce this heat. This also burns more calories. And finally, caffeine stimulates the body to get more energy from stored fat, rather than carbohydrates. That is of course very beneficial if you want to lose weight!
If you want to use caffeine as a supplement, Guarana is a great option. Guarana is a climbing plant that produces seeds that contain twice as much caffeine as the coffee bean. An additional advantage is that guarana releases the energy much more slowly, so you don't get a worked-up feeling. Furthermore, this supplement also helps to suppress appetite.

Kanna can therefore also help to prevent emotional eating.
CBD
One of the other supplements that can help with weight loss is CBD. CBD stands for cannabidiol. This is a cannabinoid that comes from the hemp plant.

This can promote weight loss.

It turned out that the highest dose had the most effect, but both doses led to weight loss in the rats. CBD is therefore also a good option if you want to support your weight loss with a supplement.
Maitake
Maitake is a medicinal mushroom and can be used if you want to lose weight. Maitake, also known as egg tenderloin, counteracts the storage of body fat and has an inhibitory effect on appetite. This is also shown by research. There were 30 people who took Maitake every day during the 2-month study. They lost an average of 12 kilos.
How to choose the right supplement?
Each supplement has its own unique effect, but it is also the case that every person has a unique body with a unique digestive system. What works for one may not work for you. It is therefore advisable to try a supplement for one or two weeks and see what effect it has. All of the above supplements are safe to use. Kanna alone should not be used in combination with SSRIs and MAO inhibitors. Otherwise, first consult with your doctor whether a remedy is suitable for you.
It is also very important that you look at your lifestyle and diet. Try to avoid unhealthy snacks, cookies, chocolate and licorice. Cook healthy with fresh vegetables and prepare your meals yourself. What can also help is to eat more fibre and protein. These provide a long-lasting feeling of fullness, so that you will have less appetite for snacks between meals. We wish you good luck with losing weight and hope that the supplements mentioned can help you with this.
