Phytobase Nutritionals forms strategic alliance with Gencor Pacific Group
Under the partnership, Phytobase has signed an exclusive agreement to use Gencor's Slimaluma(TM) - Caralluma Fimbriata extract in ChocoLeans.
16/02/06 Thanks to a new strategic alliance between ChocoLeans(TM) and LeanCaffe(TM) creator Phytobase Nutritionals, Inc. and leading herbal research and manufacturing company Gencor Pacific Group, the popular ChocoLeans will now also contain Slimaluma(TM), a clinically proven appetite suppressant that works synergistically with Hoodia Gordonii.
Under the partnership, Phytobase has signed an exclusive agreement to use Gencor's Slimaluma(TM) - Caralluma Fimbriata extract in ChocoLeans.
That may not sound too exciting, but for anyone that wants to shed some pounds this year, Caralluma Fimbriata is a gift of nature. A succulent, edible cactus, Caralluma Fimbriata grows across India and has been used for centuries there as a vegetable and famine food. In semi-arid regions of India, Indian tribals are known to chew chunks of Caralluma Fimbriata to suppress hunger and enhance endurance on a hunt.
Used in Ayurvedic practice for centuries, Caralluma Fimbriata has no known toxicity. And in the first study of its kind, Gencor's Slimaluma(TM) was tested by a double-blind, randomized clinical trial on sixty volunteers in one of the largest hospitals in India; clinical trials were subsequently conducted in the U.S. as well. The standardized extract has been studied extensively for its use in appetite suppression leading to clinically significant weight loss.
Slimaluma joins the powerhouse ChocoLeans ingredient mix, including: Hoodia Gordonii, an African cactus-like succulent used by the Kalahari's San Bushmen for thousands of years to stave off hunger on long hunting trips and known to produce a feeling of satiety; Goji berries, favored by Chinese medicine for millennia for its high vitamin and mineral content; and dark chocolate, a delicious way to lower heart disease.
