Consumers know “eating less and exercising more” is easier said than done. They often seek natural products to help them manage their weight. Many want to believe that one pill will let them eat pizza and be thinner the next day… and too many marketers sell that false hope in a bottle.

The good news is helpful options do exist. Research shows there are dietary supplement ingredients that successfully help consumers manage their weight. Phase 2 Carb Controller® is the ingredient leading the pack. It’s the one researched with more than a dozen published clinical studies for nearly two decades, showing its effectiveness in aiding people’s weight management efforts. 

A Promising Solution: Phase 2 Carb Controller®

Phase 2® is derived with a proprietary process from Phaseolus vulgaris, the white kidney bean, and reduces the amount of carbohydrates absorbed by the digestive system. The body uses the enzyme alpha-amylase to digest the carbohydrate molecule. This enzyme converts carbs into sugar to use for energy, or store as fat. Phase 2® acts on amylase, reducing the digestion and absorption of starches as much as 66%.

The One Ingredient with More Than a Dozen Studies

There are more than a dozen well-constructed studies dating back nearly two decades, which have proven Phase 2® to be an integral ingredient in the weight management supplement marketplace. One such impressive study is published in Obesity Journal. The safety and efficacy of Phase 2® in weight management study was conducted in a 12-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study at two centers in Berlin. This was followed by a weight maintenance study over 24 weeks.

Subjects were sixty-six overweight Caucasian adults, aged 18 to 60 years old, who followed a strict diet plan. Two Phase 2® tablets containing 500 mg each, were administered three times per day with meals. Subjects in the Phase 2® group lost significantly more weight than those in the placebo group; they lost at least 5% of their baseline body weight compared to the placebo group. Over 24 weeks, 73.5% of the subjects maintained their weight without dietary restrictions.

Did You Know:

Phase 2® has Accepted Claims in the USA?

Since 2001, numerous studies have proven
Phase 2®’s safety and effectiveness. In 2006, the US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) conducted an extensive review of clinical data and information on Phase 2®. The FDA announced that it does not object to weight control and starch reduction claims for Phase 2® and supplements containing it. With this announcement, Phase 2® became the 1st nutritional ingredient with two permitted structure/function claims:

  • “May assist in weight control when used in conjunction with a sensible diet and exercise program.”
  • “May reduce the enzymatic digestion of dietary starches.”

Phase 2® also has official weight loss claims/permissions in Canada, Europe, and Asia.

A Widespread Concern

The increasing rate of obesity in the world is alarming. Doubling worldwide since 1980, obesity has now replaced hunger as the #1 global health crisis. The statistics for obesity are becoming all too familiar:

  • Over 2 billion people worldwide are significantly overweight.
  • 600 million individuals are obese.
  • 41 million children under the age of five are overweight.
  • Medical costs for obese individuals are 42% higher.
  • It’s a major risk factor linked to a half-dozen leading causes of death.

These factors alone don’t motivate people to address their excess weight. Quality of life is a more immediate concern, which is why people of all walks of life seek solutions to manage their weight. Phase 2 Carb Controller® is a promising solution that can help.
