100% Plant-Based: the Ingredients of Success
A Quick Look at Calocurb’s Ingredients
A quick look at Calocurb’s ingredients list (and it will be quick!) is all you need to figure out why it’s just a bit special natural food appetite suppressant.
Plant-Based Appetite Suppressants: The Usual Categories
The world of plant-based appetite suppressants can be a murky one, we’ll be the first to admit that! Most products fall into one of three categories:
- Fillers (fibre compounds that expand in your stomach and are generally associated with bloating)
- Fasters (or metabolic stimulators – think caffeine and other nasties that give you the jitters)
- Farters (or laxatives that … you get the idea)
Where does Calocurb fit into this mix of plant-based appetite suppressants? It doesn’t. You can count the number of plant-based ingredients found in Calocurb on one hand.
Each capsule contains only:
- Hops flower extract (sourced from New Zealand)
- Rosemary extract (a natural preservative)
- Canola oil (which makes Calocurb easy to absorb)
That’s it.
You probably already know a bit about hops, rosemary and canola oil—but there’s still plenty more to learn about each of these ingredients. So let’s take a closer look at them.
Hops
Most people’s experience with hops involves a cold beer on a hot summer’s day. Hops—the cone-shaped flowers from the female Humulus lupulus plant—have long been used to cut through the sweet flavour of beer, adding a much-needed bitter taste to a brew. As well as delivering the aroma and flavour that beer aficionados know and love, hops act as a natural preservative, extending a beer’s shelf life.
Historical Uses of Hops
Dried hops have long been used for medicinal purposes, most notably for supporting sleep, with sufferers stuffing the plant into their pillows at night. Hop flower extracts have also been traditionally used in the treatment of leprosy and pulmonary tuberculosis.
Hops have even been used to nourish the hair follicles. Historical documents mention washing hair daily with hops tea—the oil, it’s been said, can restore a full head of hair! Unfortunately, the exact formulation of these historic remedies remains a mystery.
Health Benefits of Hops
Before the weight-management properties of Calocurb’s specific hops extract were discovered by Kiwi scientists, hops were also used for other health purposes. There are many health benefits of hops: hops tea can help with digestion, and recent studies show evidence that hops can support sleep and relaxation.
Where It Grows
Hops were introduced to New Zealand around the 1840s by settlers from the UK and Germany. Today, about 20 varieties grow there—mostly in Motueka and Riwaka, near Nelson on the South Island.
And Did You Know…?
- Once upon a time, hop field workers would tire more quickly than other farm workers—thought to be due to the calming effects of hops resin.
- Britain’s King George III is said to have had hops-stuffed pillows to keep him calm.
- The hops plant is a botanical cousin to cannabis (but without the THC!).
Rosemary
Best known for pairing with lamb or adding fragrance to soaps, rosemary has had many uses over the last few thousand years.
Historical Uses of Rosemary
Rosemary has long been used in herbal medicines, most notably for supporting mental clarity. During the Middle Ages, sprigs were placed under pillows to ward off nightmares and evil spirits.
Health Benefits of Rosemary
Rosemary is prized for its antioxidant properties and is used today for digestive issues, uric acid balance, clearing the head, liver and gallbladder support, easing muscle stiffness, and wound healing.
Where It Grows
This woody, perennial herb is native to the Mediterranean but is now grown worldwide.
And Did You Know…?
Ancient Greek scholars wore rosemary wreaths during exams to improve mental clarity.
Canola Oil
Canola oil, which aids Calocurb’s absorption, was developed in the 1970s by Canadian scientists and is made from pressed canola seed.
Health Benefits of Canola Oil
Favoured by health-conscious cooks for its low saturated fat and high plant-based omega-3 content.
Where It Grows
Grown in the US and Canada for over 30 years, canola thrives as a cool-season crop on the prairies, where hot days and cool nights prevail.
And Did You Know…?
“Canola” is a contraction of Canada + “ola” (oil). Products must meet an international standard before using the name “canola.”
The Holy Grail of Natural Appetite Suppression
When you want to suppress appetite naturally, you can count on Calocurb. It is a clinically proven plant-based appetite suppressant free from synthetic chemicals. Amarsate, extracted from hop flowers, is the magic ingredient. With Calocurb, you get no synthetics, no caffeine, and no jitters.
The Amarsate in Calocurb activates sensory cells in the upper intestine. Upon sensing bitterness, these cells release natural gastric peptides, sending a stop-eating signal to the brain.
Calocurb is scientifically proven to reduce hunger and calorie intake by 18 percent. Try the best natural appetite suppressant and say goodbye to cravings.
