1. Does 1 gram of
Phase 2® really "block" 2250 starch calories in humans?
Early studies showed Phase 2® reduced the absorption of approximately
2,250 starch calories in the laboratory-not in humans. Human starch absorption
studies showed that Phase 2® reduced the absorption of starch calories
by as much as 66%. However, individuals may experience different results
based on body type, eating habits, and lifestyle.
2. Does Phase 2® actually block or inhibit anything?
That sounds dangerous!
Phase 2® is considered a temporary alpha amylase "neutralizer".
Alpha amylase is the enzyme that digests starch. Phase 2® temporarily
"neutralizes", the enzyme allowing some dietary starch to pass
through the body undigested, like fiber. Since it stays in the GI tract,
Phase 2® does not enter the blood stream or affect the body's organs.
No adverse side effects have been observed in several human studies.
3. What is Phase 2® (Phaseolamin 2250®)?
Phase 2® is the first, non-stimulant, clinically-studied, standardized,
all-natural starch "neutralizer." It is extracted from a fraction
of the Great Northern white kidney bean
using proprietary processes developed by Pharmachem Laboratories.
4. How does Phase 2® work?
Phase 2® is formulated to "neutralize" the digestive enzyme,
alpha amylase, and may temporarily reduce the caloric impact of starch rich
foods.
5. What scientific evidence do you have that shows Phase
2® is effective?
Additionally, a recently completed California study demonstrated that patients
who took Phase 2® brand bean extract, lost nearly a half pound per week
(3.8 lbs. over eight weeks), on average, or better than 200% more than those
on placebo. Patients on the starch neutralizer also lost 1.5 inches around
their waists, on average, or 43% more than those on placebo.
6.
Are there any negative side effects to using Phase 2® ?
No adverse side effects were clinically observed in the starch absorption
study. In the weight loss study, participants reported “good tolerability,”
Some people may experience excess gas.
7.
How much Phase 2® should I take?
Our clinical studies suggest efficacy at dosage levels between 500 mgs.
and 1500 mgs., taken before eating starchy meals. Since everyone's metabolism
is different, people may have to experiment on themselves to find the right
levels.
8. Do I need to change my diet
while taking Phase 2® ?
You should be able to eat more of the starch-rich foods you love. This does
not mean you can eat all the carbs you want! However, any consistent, safe,
healthy weight control program should include a sensible, balanced diet
and exercise.
9. How much weight can I
expect to lose in a month by taking Phase 2® ?
Everyone's system is different and results will vary. In a 60-subject weight
loss study, those taking Phase 2® lost an average of 6.45 lbs. in 30
days, compared to those on placebo who lost less than 1 lb., on average.
This is consistent with physician recommendations for slow, steady, safe
carb control. In an 8-week 50 subject clinical trial conducted at Northridge
Hospital (UCLA), subjects lost 1/2 - 2/3 pound per week on average, with
some subjects reporting substantially greater weightloss. During this same
time period, subjects' triglycerides were markedly reduced on average as
well (see clinical studies on this site).
10. Do I need a prescription for Phase 2® ?
No. Phase 2® is sold as a nutritional supplement.
11.
How does new Phase 2® differ from the old Starch Blockers and other
bean extracts?
Phase 2® has been clinically studied several times, and has proven to
be effective in humans. Phase 2® is a brand new, highly-concentrated
standardized extract made from
a specific fraction of specially-sized Great Northern white kidney bean
through proprietary processes. The so-called amylase inhibitors of the 1980's,
and typical bean extracts, are simple whole bean powders or extracts with
little or no clinical background.
12.
How Do I Know That Phase2® is Really Working for Me?
This is the most common question we get and a very good one. We have made
a very large investment in clinical studies to prove that this product works.
And we have made this data available for you on this website. Please rest
assured that Phase 2® is working if taken properly. Understand that
their is no magic pill when it comes to losing weight. If we are consuming
the same amount of calories that we are burning, then our weight will stay
the same. However, Phase2® has been clinically proven to significantly
reduce the amount of starch calories our body will absorb thereby allowing
us to enjoy more food without gaining weight (within reason), or to lose
weight.
