Naturra recently launched their Natural Fat Burning Tea to the market. Naturra – Natural Fat Burning Tea has been carefully formulated using a combination of 100% natural ingredients that include pure Ceylon Green Tea blended with Garcinia Cambogia (Goraka), Cinnamon Licorice to give you the best results in achieving your dream figure and a healthy life.

Green Tea can easily be named as one of the healthiest drinks in the world. Its natural and is widely known for its antioxidant benefits, which kill harmful free radicals in the body by flushing toxins out of the body. Catechins that are abundant in green tea give amazing antioxidant powers. Green tea also aids in boosting one’s metabolism (Epigallocatechin Gallate – EGCG), thus making it effective for weight loss. It helps the liver to process fats better, hence decreasing stored body fats. Research indicates that consuming 3 to 5 cups of green tea each day can help in the reduction of body fat by 5 to 10% in three months and helps to lower your risk of heart attack by 11%.

Garcinia Cambogia extract has gained recognition as an amazing weight loss supplement. Garcinia Cambogia, a tropical fruit also known as the Malabar tamarind and it blocks your body’s ability to make fat and it puts the brakes on your appetite. It could help keep blood sugar and cholesterol levels in check too. The active ingredient in the fruit’s rind, Hydroxycitric acid, or HCA, has boosted fat-burning and cut back appetite in studies. It appears to block an enzyme called citrate lyase, which your body uses to make fat. It also raises levels of the brain chemical serotonin, which may make you feel less hungry. Apart from Hydroxycitric Acid (HCA) it also includes Potassium, Chromium, and Calcium. Garcinia Cambogia extract is extracted in its pure form which keeps the supplement pure.

Cinnamon has a regulatory effect on blood sugar levels and simultaneously increases insulin levels in the body. It imitates the biological activity of insulin and increases the metabolism of glucose. Since high blood sugar levels can lead to increased storage of fat by the body, cinnamon helps prevent this increased storage of fat and enables you to lose weight. In addition, it influences the manner in which sugar is metabolized by the body and prevents the transformation of the metabolized sugar into fat. Cinnamon also delays the passing of food from the stomach into the intestine. Hence, you feel satisfied for a longer time and eat less. This helps you lose weight. Cinnamon also helps the body to process carbohydrates more efficiently and this assists you in losing a few pounds. Studies show that abdominal fat is more sensitive to the effects of cinnamon than fat from other parts of the body.  Licorice root is known as a remedy for indigestion, ulcers and aids in cleansing of the digestive system.

Paddy Weerasekera, Chief Executive Officer – Consumer, George Steuarts Co said “we are happy to introduce a product that combines ingredients of highest quality that are carefully selected to give optimal effectiveness and are 100% natural to ensure there will be no short term or long term side effects in using our product. Naturra will help in promoting a number of benefits including fat burning weight loss, soothing cleansing the digestive system and improving the immune system thus promoting a much healthier lifestyle”. Naturra – Natural Fat Burning Tea combined with a balanced diet and exercise will get you to your dream figure in no time.

Naturra – Natural Fat Burning Tea does not contain laxatives or diuretics. Laxatives make you move your bowels more frequently. Long-term use of laxatives is not only unpleasant, it can become dangerous. Continual use can cause your body to become dependent on the laxative, which is especially problematic when you stop taking them. Dehydration and severe electrolyte imbalance can also occur.

Diuretics make you urinate by stimulating the body to excrete increased water and sodium. This can lead to short-term loss of water weight, giving you the illusion of having lost weight or feeling slimmer. This type of weight loss is not from a reduction of fat stored and is not a sustainable method of weight loss. As soon as you stop using the tea or hydrate properly, you will regain the water weight. Losing water weight can also lead to dehydration.

Naturra is manufactured and marketed by George Steuarts Teas (Pvt) Ltd and will be available at all leading pharmacies and supermarkets across the island. The manufacturing processed follows ISO 9001:2008 , ISO22000:2005, HACCP, GMP standards and  it is also certified by the Department of Ayurveda of the Ministry of Health, Nutrition and Indigenous Medicine.

Dr. Oz is getting called out again over a “magic weight-loss cure” he touted on his TV show … this time in a class action lawsuit. 

The suit is all over weight loss supplements containing Garcinia Cambogia … which is green coffee bean extract. They’re sold by a company called Labrada, and Dr. Oz covered the products on an episode called “Five Biggest Fat Busters for Five Body Types in Just Five Days.”

The suit, filed by a consumer on behalf of all purchasers, says Oz described Garcinia Cambogia as a revolutionary fat buster which “could be the magic ingredient that lets you lose weight without diet or exercise.” The suit says the “Oz Effect” caused sales to skyrocket.

Oz already had to testify about this product for a Senate panel in 2014, and during the grilling he leaned on evidence from a scientific study. But the lawsuit points out that study has since been discredited.

According to the suit, “all credible scientific evidence” shows Garcinia Cambogia simply doesn’t work. The plaintiffs are going after Oz, Labrada, Harpo Productions and others to get their money back plus damages.

A rep for Oz’s show says the lawsuit attacks his right to free speech and, “As we have always explained to our viewers, the Dr. Oz Show does not sell these products nor does he have any financial ties to these companies.”
