Weight loss supplements such as Fenphedra are trying to get consumers to lose weight by increasing the metabolism using powerful compounds such as caffeine, synephrine, phenylethylamine, and chocmaine.
However, taking pills is not only the solution to increase metabolism. Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners or TCM physicians claim that acupuncture can help you to lose body fat by increasing the metabolic rate which means burning more calories to speed up weight loss. These practitioners claims that acupuncture stimulates the production of a hormone called endorphins and this hormone helps to lower body fat, insulin and lipid levels in the bloodstream thus less insulin is converted into body fat.
This business idea may be something for those who are interested in alternative medicine.
