Blocking Hunger Cravings with All-New Attain®
The statistics are staggering! Over 60% of U.S. adults are now overweight or obese, and childhood obesity has tripled since 1980. Fortunately, Americans are waking up to
the seriousness of the issue, and they're opening their wallets in hopes of finding help. Sales of diet products were predicted to amount to $50 billion in 2007. Meal replacement shakes amounted to $ 2.36 Billion in 2006, up 2.7% compared to 2005. And nutrition bar sales amounted to $2.03 Billion in 2006, up 4.2% compared to 2005. All-new Attain with patent-pending CraveBlocker™ technology gives those struggling with their weight a natural tool
in the fight against obesity.
GRUMBLINGS FROM WITHIN
Ask anyone who has ever tried to lose weight, and they'll tell you that one of the biggest hurdles to overcome is their own hunger cravings. Eating right and exercising are the road to long-term success, but hunger cravings can create devastating detours. Recognizing that fact, Melaleuca set out to find a natural way to reduce hunger cravings, and the results were extremely appetizing.
WHERE DO CRAVINGS COME FROM?
Before you can overcome hunger cravings, you have to understand where they come from. Hunger cravings can actually come from two places-your stomach and your brain. When your stomach is empty for prolonged periods of time (usually two hours or more), you can experience hunger contractions that are signal to the rest of your body that it is time to eat. In addition, outside stimuli such as smells and sights can generate craving chemicals in the brain even when there is food in your stomach.
In Melaleuca's quest to help fight hunger cravings, we looked to solutions that addressed hunger cravings at their source and developed the revolutionary patent-pending formula known as CraveBlocker. CraveBlocker is unique in that it addresses the two main causes of hunger cravings, and helps stop them right where they start.
STOMACH
An empty stomach can lead to overeating. CraveBlocker's combination of natural oat and barley-derived Beta Glucan and Inulin Fiber swell in your stomach, helping create a physical feeling of fullness that fights hunger cravings and helps you avoid unnecessary snacking, nibbling, and overeating.
BRAIN
Whether our bodies need the food or not, sights and smells can create strong cravings. Using the power of natural whey protein isolates and potato protein extract, CraveBlocker fights the crave by promoting the release of cholecystokinin (CCK), a hormone that tells your brain to turn off hunger cravings by inducing feelings of fullness and satisfaction.
A REVOLUTIONARY FORMULA IN TWO DELICIOUS FORMS
Melaleuca has taken the hunger-fighting power of CraveBlocker and made it the driving force behind the all-new Attain Bars and Shakes. Available in three delicious flavors, Attain Bars and Shakes make an excellent addition to a healthy breakfast or lunch, and make great snacks on their own. Supercharged by the patent-pending power of CraveBlocker, Attain Bars and Shakes help you take control of your eating.
CraveBlocker is just one more example of using the best of science and nature to create incredible products you'll only find in Melaleuca Country.
