It also helps to support the production of energy by assisting in the metabolism of fat, proteins, sugar and other carbohydrates. Weight-loss diets are often low in nutrients that support metabolism, including folic acid, magnesium, iron, vitamin D, zinc and some B vitamins; many of these nutrients are also involved in energy production. The trace minerals iodine and selenium are required for the healthy functioning of the thyroid gland, which is one of the main regulators of metabolic rate. Iron is also involved in thyroid function, and additionally is important for energy production. Many people don’t obtain the recommended dietary intake of iron from their diets, and this may be exacerbated during dieting, resulting in lowered energy, decreased exercise capacity, and reduced thyroid function. Weight-loss diets are commonly low in calcium, which supports the body’s processes for breaking down fat in cells. If calcium levels are low, the burning of fats for energy may decrease or be inhibited. To provide extra support for people on weight loss programs, Blackmores Metabolic Advantage™ combines these nutrients with the herbs coleus and capsicum, which have both traditionally been regarded as digestive tonics that support metabolism.
