Slim Body System (replace the Slim Extreme)

Nutricode Slim Extreme is a composition of ingredients which support weight loss by reducing appetite. Our unique „All day weight control” system is designed for those who wish to reduce their weight in a rational way. It also keeps your skin beautiful while following a weight reduction diet.

The package of Slim Extreme contains two jars with 90 tablets each and two tubes with 15 effervescent tablets each.

The coated tablets are based on an innovative ingredient – plant fibre called glucomannan, which – in combination with a low-calorie diet – facilitates weight reduction. Chromium helps to maintain a proper glucose level in the blood, reducing the craving for sweets and snacks between meals. Zinc also supports a balanced diet and helps to keep proper metabolism of carbohydrates, fatty acids and macronutrients, as well as synthesis of proteins involved in the metabolism. A Garcinia cambogia extract is a source of hydroxycitric acid (HCA), which slows down the production of fat in the body. Effervescent tablets are a perfect addition to a weight reduction diet: a set of carefully selected ingredients, necessary for maintaining beautiful skin. Vitamin C promotes collagen production, which ensures proper functioning of the skin. Biotin facilitates proper metabolism and together with vitamin B2 (riboflavin) helps maintain a healthy complexion. Copper is responsible for maintaining proper pigmentation of the skin and hair. Calcium influences proper functioning of digestive enzymes. The effervescent tablets also contain vitamin B1 (thiamine), B6, B12 and folic acid, magnesium and potassium.

The supplement facilitates weight loss and decreases appetite. The unique „All day weight control” system is designed for those who wish to reduce their weight in a rational way. The effervescent tablets replenish vitamins and minerals that we lack when we reduce the amount of food we eat. Also, some diets cause a deficit of vitamins and minerals.

Glucomannan and chromium. A great candidate for the role of an „extender” of the sensation of fullness is glucomannan. It is a macromolecular polysaccharide, water-soluble fibre. The human body does not have the capacity to break bonds in its molecules and therefore consumed glucomannan is not digested. Instead, it passes in an unchanged form through the gastrointestinal tract to the colon. There it is fermented by the intestinal flora. A unique feature of the glucomannan powder is its ability to bind large quantities of water. Under its influence, it swells in the stomach and significantly increases in volume. The resulting gel fills the stomach and presses on its walls, which signals to the brain that it is full. Moreover, due to the activity of gastric muscles, the glucomannan gel is mixed with the ingested food forming a viscous mass, which takes longer to leave the stomach. The effect? After a meal we feel full for a longer time. Additionally, chromium contained in the tablets influences a proper blood glucose level and when the glucose level does not fall we do not feel like eating and our craving for sweets and snacks between meals decreases. Glucose is responsible for the feeling of hunger: when the blood glucose level falls, the appetite increases and vice versa: when the blood glucose level increases, the appetite decreases.

According to the Regulation No. 1924/2006 of the European Parliament all information concerning the effects of the ingredients of food supplements must be approved by the European Commission. Scientific studies regarding their activity are subject to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). Out of more than 160 submitted applications for approval of statements pertaining to the reduction of body weight, until now only the scientific evidence for the effectiveness of glucomannan (and special meal replacement products) received a positive opinion of the EFSA and were approved by the European Commission. It should be noted that in the case of products containing glucomannan, the statement „it contributes to weight reduction in persons using a low-calorie diet” applies only to products containing 1 gram of glucomannan per dose, which allows for receiving a daily dose of 3 grams. This dosage regimen is based on the positive results of the studies on the use of glucomannan in overweight persons. There are many studies proving the effectiveness of glucomannan. At the University of Milan a study was carried out on two groups of 25 patients suffering from severe obesity. They participated in the tests for 3 months: one group followed the same low-calorie diet and the other group used a diet combined with taking glucomannan (approx. 4 g in 3 doses per day). A comparative analysis of the results obtained in both groups showed that in the case of persons who were taking glucomannan the weight loss was more significant. Thus, glucomannan supplements were found to be particularly effective and well tolerated, even in a long-term treatment of severe obesity (Vita PM., Restelli A., Caspani P., Klinger R., „Chronic use of glucomannan in the food treatment of severe obesity”, Minerva Med. 1992 Mar; 83(3): 135-9). Other studies demonstrated that using glucomannan together with a low-calorie diet by overweight persons leads to a body mass reduction of 3 kg a month on average (Birketvedt GS. „Experiences with three different fiber supplements in weight reduction”. Med Sci Monit. 2005 Jan; 11(1): PI5-8).

Glucomannan is not digested, swells in the stomach, fills it and thus signals to the satiety centre in the hypothalamus, they we are not hungry. This allows us to reduce the number and size of the meals. To do its job, glucomannan tablets should be taken with a lot of water, which will cause them to swell in the stomach. Beneficial effects occur when we take 3 g of glucomannan per day, in 3 doses of 1 g (3 x 2 tablets), with 1 or 2 glasses of water, before meals and during a low-calorie diet.

It is necessary to strictly observe the instructions for use of glucomannan tablets. 2 tablets should be taken with a large quantity of water (1–2 glasses). Taking glucomannan without this amount of water could cause the closure of the intestine, constipation and the need to take appropriate drugs to stimulate peristalsis.

Absolutely not. The amount of water drunk with the tablets is a part of the daily intake.

Glucomannan is fibre that is not absorbed by the body, but only swells and increases in volume in the stomach, therefore it is safe for diabetics. However, every diabetic should – even when using safe substances – control the blood sugar level to eliminate any potential danger. Should the blood sugar level rise, discontinue use of the supplement.

Glucomannan was prepared in the form of tablets precisely to act in the stomach and to swell there. If you observe the instructions for use and take the tablets with a sufficient amount of water, there will be no problems.

Pregnant and breastfeeding women must not go on a weight reduction diet. Therefore, the product is not designed for this group.

Fibre interferes with the absorption of some medicines, including contraceptive pills. Therefore, you must first take your medicines and only after 20–30 minutes the glucomannan tablets. After ingestion of tablets containing fibre, you should wait for about an hour before taking any medicines. Using oral medicines more frequently than once a day is a contraindication to Slim Extreme and in such a case you should consult your doctor.

The contraindications include taking oral medicines more frequently than once a day, as well as taking type 2 diabetes medicines.

Yes, because a person who is taking Slim Extreme will have a decreased appetite.

They are designed to supplement vitamins and minerals, as their deficiency often occurs during a weight reduction diet. It keeps your skin beautiful during slimming.

The product contains aspartame and acesulfame. All substances used in our supplements are legally permitted, according to the EU regulation on food additives (what substances can be used and in what quantities).

The Internet is full of references on the subject. When selecting ingredients for our supplements we relied on facts and food research experts. All of these substances are legally allowed for use under the EU regulation on food additives (which substances can be safely used and in what quantities). For reliable information about them go to the website of the European Food Safety Authority EFSA www.efsa.europa.eu, where you will also find studies and opinions on safety of aspartame: www.efsa.europa.eu/en/press/news/131210.

In 2006, 2009, 2011 and 2013 the European Food Safety Authority EFSA conducted a number of studies, all of which proved that the use of aspartame in foodstuff, including dietary supplements and foods does not result in exceeding the toxic, cytotoxic levels of this substance. There is therefore no reason for concern about carcinogenic properties of aspartame or its metabolites in the body. Aspartame has been used all over the world for over 30 years and no reliable research proved its carcinogenic properties. The level of consumption of aspartame as a food additive are monitored constantly and no excess of the minimum level of safe intake (the so called ADI, Acceptable Daily Intake) has been found in any age group, including babies and pregnant women. Internet campaigns that depreciate this food additive do not reflect the study results.

Our supplements couldn’t exist in their forms if it wasn’t for the auxiliary substances. Tablets, capsules or soluble powder have to contain some substances that will allow to form e.g. a tablet that will not fall apart too quickly but at the same time will disintegrate at the destination, that is where the substances are absorbed into the body. Pure active ingredients are present only in the form of loose herbal infusion. Any other form requires the use of additives.

The coated tablets should be taken orally, 2 tablets 3 times a day, with a large quantity of water (1 or 2 glasses), to ensure that the substance reaches the stomach.
