EHPlabs OxyShred Thermogenic Fat Burner

SUMMARY - OXYSHRED AND FAT BURNING

In essence, you have 2 specific types of fat stores - subcutaneous fat, meaning it sits just below your skin; and visceral fat, which sits around your organs to protect them. 

Within these fat stores, you have two different types of adipose (fat) tissue; brown and white fat - long story short, brown fat keeps you warm when you’re cold and white fat is the result of excess calories that are stored to be used as energy at a later time.

OxyShred targets your subcutaneous fat stores, leaving your visceral fat stores untouched as these are crucial for safety and health. By targeting your subcutaneous fat stores, OxyShred targets your white fat cells resulting in an increase in thermogenesis and lipolysis.

It does this by working with your mitochondria (core of muscle fibre cells) to help metabolize fat in your body, converting fat cells into energy. 



The combination of ingredients also helps to slow down calorie absorption, and kick starts your metabolism for the day.

Finally, the stress hormone (and enemy of weight loss) Cortisol is kept under control by the natural boost in energy and immunity boosting ingredients, helping you to stay focused throughout the day.

WHAT SEPARATES OXYSHRED FROM THE OTHERS?

- Optimal dosage of ingredients that work in synergy (instead of huge doses of a single ingredient)

- Uses active sections of ingredient extracts

- Chromium for blood sugar balance

- Not over-caffeinated  

- The purpose of a thermogenic is separate to a pre-workout...you don’t want to be sitting there so full of energy, sweating and getting jittery

IS EHPLABS OXYSHRED VEGAN?

While not certified vegan, OxyShred contains no animal-based ingredients. According to vegan certification regulations, none of the EHPlabs products are vegan as they are manufactured in a facility that also processes our whey protein.

WILL I DEVELOP A TOLERANCE TOWARDS OXYSHRED?

OxyShred contains caffeine, and for products containing caffeine you should take a 1 week break after consuming the product for a consecutive 4 week period. With OxyShred, we recommend taking a 1 week break each time you finish a tub.

DO I NEED TO TAKE A BREAK FROM USING EHPLABS SUPPLEMENTS?

All EHPlabs products are researched, formulated and carefully manufactured to ensure that they deliver results.

Although there is no rule about when you should start and stop taking supplements, you need to listen to your body. If you feel like you need to take a break, then you should take a rest from using any nutritional supplement products for 3 consecutive days and drink plenty of water to flush out your system.

With OxyShred, we recommend taking a break each time you finish a tub.

WHAT EHPLABS PRODUCTS CAN I MIX TOGETHER WITH OXYSHRED FOR CARDIO?

As suggested in the Directions, Acetyl L-Carnitine is best taken with OxyShred to maximize the breakdown of fat cells.

If you're doing fasted (empty stomach) cardio, the ideal energy and metabolism booster and recovery cocktail is to mix 1 scoop of Beyond BCAA with 1 scoop of OxyShred and 2 scoops of Acetyl L-Carnitine with 20 oz (600ml) of chilled water.

It's fun experimenting with the delicious fruity flavor combinations.

WHAT IS THE BEST FLAVOR FOR OXYSHRED?

If you don't have a sweet tooth, pink grapefruit flavor is fantastic as it has a subtle fresh citrus flavor. Wild Melon and Kiwi Strawberry are well balanced and on the sweeter fruitier side, and Guava is a smooth natural tropical flavor.

Our newest flavors are Passionfruit and Mango, both of which have been very popular. All the OxyShred flavors are delicious, but it really depends on your taste preference.

CAN I USE OXYSHRED AS PRE-WORKOUT? 

Yes! OxyShred will give you a natural boost of energy and put you in a positive and focused mindframe to conquer your workout.  Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned pre-workout consumer, you’ll love the natural positive effects of OxyShred during your workout.

CAN I STACK OXYSHRED WITH OTHER PRODUCTS?

Oxyshred can be stacked with Acetyl L-Carnitine to increase its already potent ultra thermogenic ability. OxyShred can also be stacked with our non-stimulant based pre-workout PSI.

PSI contains optimally dosed ingredients that have been extensively studied and proven to synergistically promote vasodilation, enhance nutrient and oxygen delivery to working muscle, and increase cell hydration for incredible pumps while also helping to improve mental focus.

Combining OxyShred and PSI pre-workout will give you the energy and focus you need to push through your workout while maximizing fat loss.

SWEETENERS IN OXYSHRED

OxyShred uses the sweetener Sucralose, as it's been FDA-approved for 20 years, and shown to be safe and stable. Sucralose has been extensively studied and more than 110 safety studies were reviewed by FDA in approving the use of sucralose as a general purpose sweetener for food.


NEUROCOGNITIVE FUNCTIONS

The combination of L-Tyrosine, Taurine have been shown in EHPlabs studies to provide a mood enhancing effect.

By also including Caffeine and L-Theanine, this helps to provide optimal central nervous system and adrenal gland stimulation to trigger a positive homeostatic energy release, which can also help improve cognitive ability.

WHY ARE THERE NO JITTERS? 

Unlike some other thermogenics on the market, you shouldn’t get jitters from OxyShred if used as directed as it’s not over-caffeinated.

The R&D team at EHPlabs has focused on the optimal synergistic dose of ingredients within OxyShred to provide the best effect, so that they interact and complement each other, instead of pumping it full of stimulants - there is no need to add huge amounts of caffeine and other stimulants to make you itchy - this is the purpose of a pre-workout like RP Max.

The caffeine level in OxyShred is slightly higher than a strong cup of coffee.


FIGHTING THE CRAVINGS - MORE ON THIS AND WHY?

OxyShred helps to reduce cravings by a couple of different methods;

1) it helps to suppress your appetite and enhance your mood, which is a large contributor to cravings. 


2) it helps to promote blood sugar balance by the addition of chromium which has an effect on regulation of blood glucose control. Chromium is lacking in most people’s diets, and chromium levels decrease with age - Chromium picolinate is the most efficacious form of chromium supplementation


3) It boosts your metabolism so that you have clean, long-lasting energy from your fat stores, which again helps to reduce cravings as you’re not low on energy

WHAT IS THE SCIENTIFIC ACTION FOR FAT MOBILIZATION FUNCTION?

The scientific action behind fat mobilization and fat utilization is two-fold;

1) you have to activate the fat from storage


2) you have to then take it from storage and transport into the mitochondria to be burned off as energy. 

WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THERMOGENIC? 

Thermogenic by definition just means to produce heat - however, in terms of a supplement this means increasing heat through an increased metabolic rate, which results in increased amount of fat burning.

By keeping your metabolism elevated for periods of time, this results in more production of heat, and therefore more burning of fat - this means you have more clean natural long-lasting energy from your body so that you have energy throughout the day, even while on a calorie-restricted diet.
