Proto-‐col Thermo-‐Slim

Proto-‐col Thermo-‐Slim is a progressive product that uses thermogenesis to boost your energy levels and break down the fat contained in your food. As a result, it can help you to shed extra weight and feel more energised.

• Effectively lose weight

• Increase your metabolism

• Boost your energy levels

• Uses thermogenesis to burn fat

What is Thermo-‐Slim ?

Thermo-‐Slim is a top quality, all natural metaboliser that utilises a highly effective combination of herbs and vitamins to boost your energy levels whilst increasing the metabolic rate. With the additional use of thermogensis (a process by where the body burns fat to produce heat) you will stand a greater chance of shedding pounds whilst feeling more energised.

This successful product will also work to break down the fat content in meals, in the same way the body processes food. This will serve to reduce your appetite and the temptation to snack before and after meals. It is free of Ephedrine, a drug banned in sport due to its addictive nature, and has also been subject to stringent testing. It was shown to markedly reduce excess fat levels, improve blood circulation and even relieve stiff muscles.

How does Thermo-‐Slim work and what is thermogenesis?

The primary functions of Thermo-‐Slim are to increase metabolism and boost energy levels. The active ingredients have been proven to accelerate the reduction of fat storage by using an all natural herbal mechanism called thermogenisis. This is essentially a process where the body will burn fat, in order to produce heat (energy). As a result the metabolic rate will increase, this is referred to as the thermogenic effect. The thermogenic properties in Thermo-‐Slim will work against the body’s fat storage mechanisms, by causing it to maintain a higher metabolic rate, increasing your internal temperature, which then burns fat faster.

Thermo-‐Slim also works as an effective appetite suppressant, thus further reducing the temptation to eat between set meals. Equally, through its concentration of beneficial vitamins, minerals and herbs, it can help to increase energy levels.

How do I use Thermo-‐Slim ?

To gain the full benefits of Thermo-‐Slim simply take two capsules in the morning and afternoon.

As a precaution, you are advised to drink two litres of water a day, as this product will work to encourage the body to overheat, which can leave you dehydrated.



Are there any side effects?

Comprised of entirely natural ingredients, there have been no reported side effects. However, if you are aware of any allergies to its active ingredients, you are advised to avoid this product.

Although it is without any known side effects, you are advised to consult with your doctor in the event that you are already taking an additional course of medication. Equally, if you are aware of any allergies, to any of the active ingredients, you are advised to avoid the product.

What are the ingredients in Thermo-‐Slim ?

The active ingredients include:

• Guarana powder extract -‐ laboratory studies have shown it to have shown it to have antioxidant and antibacterial effects, and also in fat cell reduction.

• Pyridoxine Hydrochloride powder – Which assists in the balancing of sodium and potassium as well as promoting red blood cell production. It is positively linked to cardiovascular health.

• Caffiene anhydrous powder – Which stimulates the central nervous system and provides greater control over caffeine intake than beverages and soft drinks, which vary in caffeine content.

• Gelatine capsule – The capsule itself.

• Magnesium Stearate powder – which helps time the release of the active ingredients in the product.

BioEnergiser Cell-‐U-‐Patches

The BioEnergiser Cell-‐U-‐Patch contains a combination of herbal extracts, which can improve your skin's texture and reduce the appearance of cellulite. This anti-‐cellulite treatment works fast to combat the signs of fatty deposits on your body. By applying a single BioEnergiser Cell-‐U-‐Patch to your arms, legs or waistline, you can enjoy smoother, toned, rehydrated skin within weeks.

• Fights the signs of cellulite • Reduces fat on your arms, thighs and midsection • Tones, smoothes and cleanses your body • Helps you to achieve a slimmer, streamlined figure

What are BioEnergiser Cell-‐U-‐Patches?

Each BioEnergiser Cell-‐U-‐Patch is an effective anti-‐cellulite treatment which contains herbal extracts that can treat areas of cellulite by smoothing, toning and cleansing. The Cell-‐U-‐Patch also uses caffeine, which acts as a catalyst for speeding up your metabolic rate.

How do BioEnergiser Cell-‐U-‐Patches work?

Each BioEnergiser anti-‐cellulite patch stores a significant amount of caffeine. The caffeine is used to help to melt away the fat within your body in areas such as the stomach and bottom. A small swelling may first appear on your skin, although this is a temporary side effect and will soon disappear. The same technique is used when performing liposuction, although Cell-‐U-‐Patches are much safer, cost-‐effective and guarantee no physical scarring.

Cellulite appears as trapped fat cells that have formed a network in your body. These fat cells are constantly cleansed by your body fluids and if you suffer from poor circulation, your cleansing process becomes less efficient. Waste materials accumulate, thicken slowly and become hard pockets of immovable fat. This process causes the orange peel affect and dimpling of the skin, otherwise known as cellulite, which may appear on your underarms, thighs, bottom, stomach or hips. BioEnergiser can help remove these areas of trapped fat.

How do I use BioEnergiser Cell-‐U-‐Patches ?

Make sure your skin is clean and dry before you use the treatment. Apply a single patch once a day in the morning to your stomach, back, arms or thighs to allow the ingredients to be gradually released in to your system. Choose a different place to put the patch each day to avoid any skin irritation. Continue to use this anti-‐cellulite treatment for the full 30-‐day course to achieve the best results for reducing cellulite and achieving smoother, cleaner skin.



Are there any side effects?

Before application, test a patch on a small area of your skin. Wait 24 hours and if any sensitivity occurs, discontinue use. BioEnergiser Cell-‐U-‐Patches are not suitable to use if you have a pre-‐existing medical condition, or if you are pregnant. While using the BioEnergiser Cell-‐U-‐Patch treatment you may experience a slight tingling after removing each patch. If your skin turns red, do not reapply the patch to this area. If redness or irritation is prolonged, you should seek medical advice.

What are the ingredients in the BioEnergiser Cell-‐U-‐Patches?

BioEnergiser Cell-‐u-‐patch contains:

Fucus vesiculosus: Used to increase the metabolic rate, and when combined with a calorie controlled diet, it can significantly reduce body weight.

Dandelion: A general stimulant to the system, but especially to the urinary organs, and is chiefly used in kidney and liver disorders.

Guarana: A gentle excitant and serviceable ingredient used when the brain is irritated or depressed by mental exertion, or where fatigue or exhaustion is brought on by hot weather.

Symptoms that TENS can alleviate

The Electroflex foot circulation machine uses TENS technology, which can alleviate many complaints.

Poor circulation is the root cause of a number of other symptoms. Improving circulation through the Electroflex blood circulation machine can help alleviate many other symptoms and common complaints. These include:

Chronic Pain: Multiple studies have shown TENS to be effective in alleviating chronic pain. Chronic pain is defined as persistent pain that lasts for longer than 6 months.

Acute Pain: As an effective pain reliever, TENS can also help with acute pain. Acute pain is familiar to us as the short lived pain that comes from day to day accidents.

Muscle Pain: Also known as myalgia, the most common symptom of muscle pain is overuse or over stretching of a muscle or muscle group. It can also be caused or exacerbated by certain drugs or diseases. This can be alleviated with a TENS administered via a blood circulation machine.

Soft Tissue Injuries: Soft tissue injuries include sprains, strains and other stresses on joints and ligaments. These have shown to be very receptive to healing effects of TENS through a foot circulation machine.

Numbness/Tingling/Pins and Needles: By stimulating the sensitivity and reinvigorating trapped areas, a blood circulation machine using TENS can relieve numbness or tingling.

Limb Cramping: Cramping of limbs, caused by poor blood flow to the region in question can be greatly alleviated by the improved circulation bought about by TENS.

Aching and Fatigued Limbs: Aching and fatigued limbs can also be a symptom of restricted blood flow. A blood circulation machine such as Electroflex can help with this probem.

Lymphedema: Lymphedema, localized swelling which can be caused by a blockage of the lymph nodes, and can be alleviated by the improved circulation of the lymphatic system.

Osteoarthiritis and Musculoskeletal Pain: Musculoskeletal Pain is often sensed as a full body ache. Its causes are many but improving the blood flow to the body can help in many cases.

Postoperative Pain: Postoperative pain is common, and is the result of invasive surgery. Though it varies in severity, TENS has been proven to have an alleviating effect for postoperative patients.

Symptoms that TENS can alleviate through massage

Peer reviewed studies have shown alleviation of the following symptoms through massage.



One of the features that Electroflex , as a foot circulation machine, offers is an invigorating massage, provided through detachable, muscle stimulating pads.

Anxiety: By its relaxing process, massage has been shown to reduce feelings of long term anxiety both during and after treatment.

Blood Pressure: Peer reviewed research has shown massage as an effective way to lower blood pressure, which in its self may help with various other symptoms. High blood pressure is correlated with developing coronary heart disease and damage to the internal organs, among other symptoms.

Attention: Massage has been shown to increase the attentiveness and performance of test subjects tackling complicated mathematical challenges. This is thought to be due to a reduction in stress hormones.

Depression: Massage has been shown to reduce subclinical depression.

Immune System: Massage has been shown to boost the immune system by boosting numbers of Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes (PBLs) in the bloodstream.

As you can see, through stimulating proper circulation and relaxing muscular tension, TENS technology and the Bioflex foot circulation machine has a powerful range of benefits.

TENS technology for massage

As TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) technology has advanced, it can now be used for many other beneficial purposes. Today, it is utilized by healthcare professionals and athletes to promote and improve good health. Circulation massagers use TENS technology to administer safe and relaxing electrical massages in the comfort of your own home.

How TENS works

TENS stimulates bloodflow by sending harmless electrical pulses at different frequencies to the surface of the skin. These pulses work with the central nervous system. This has a host of benefits. These include increased circulation, and the release of pain relieving receptors in the body. The benefits are completely natural bodily responses. TENS through a circulation



massager is a convenient, cheap and safe way to get the benefits of improved energy circulation , and unlike some other treatments is completely non invasive.

Benefits of Massage

In use before recorded history, and by cultures the world over, it is commonly known that massages are extremely beneficial, and have positive effects even beyond the relaxation and feelings of wellbeing they induce.

Massages have been proven to reduce pain, stimulate the immune system, treat depression and reduce susceptibility to anxiety, among a host of other benefits.

It’s important to make time for relaxation and sometimes it is not always practical, for time or financial reasons, to employ a masseuse. This is where a circulation massager can help you.

Benefits of a Circulation Massager

In many ways, the action of TENS is quite similar to massage.

Based on the principles of traditional reflexology and acupuncture, the electro flex circulation massager sends a series of low frequency electro waves, these stimulate your reflex zones, acupuncture points, and lower leg blood circulation. This stimulates your body’s natural healing powers.

The invigorating stimulation is applied directly to the muscles, much like a hand massage. Modifying the level of the electrical activity changes the level of intensity and simulates different massage strength. Whether soft and soothing, or strong and invigorating, the choice is yours.

The circulation massager rejuvenates and tackles aches and pains, and allows the tightness in your body to unwind, bringing about a calm and relaxing feeling.

Using this technology, the electro flex circulation massager has proven to help with a number of conditions, which include poor circulation, fluid retention, fibromyaglia and diabetes.

The electro flex circulation massager is also convenient. It is small and can easily be fit at times into the modern, busy lifestyle. Use the electro flex circulation massager when it suits you. It can be used sitting, standing or lying down. The strength can be fit to suit your needs. What’s more it’s far cheaper than any form of beauty therapy and completely safe!

Poor Circulation Symptoms

Poor circulation can be experienced in a number of different ways. These symptoms can vary, they depend upon which artery is affected and how much of your blood flow is reduced. Some of the symptoms you may experience include;

• A feeling of numbness or tingling in your feet or toes/ ‘Pins and Needles’



• Cyanosis: which is changes in skin tone (for example, the skin becomes more pale, bluish or reddish), often caused by a lack of oxygen getting to the right areas.

• Skin breakages, sores and other small flesh wounds healing slower than normal

• Changes in skin temperature – for example, hands and feet that are cold more often than normal.

• Feeling colder than normal: as above, poor circulation may not be confined to your extremities

• Swelling in the feet or legs:

• Varicose and spider veins:

• Limb cramping and aches:

• Lymphedema: Localized swelling caused by lymphatic system blockage.

• Migraines and headaches caused by a lack of blood to the brain.

• Dizziness upon standing up quickly.

• Vision disorders also caused by a lack of oxygen.

• Affects on extremeities, such as toes, fingers and nails, or white spots on your nails

• Brittle nails

Causes Of Poor Circulation

Any condition or disease that affects the blood flow in the body can cause poor circulation, which means that there are a lot of possible culprits for the condition. One of the most common causes is a progressive blockage of the arteries in the leg (atherosclerosis). This is often a symptom of coronary heart disease. Diabetic individuals often develop poor circulation, and other risk factors include smoking, high blood pressure, a lack of physical activity and high cholesterol.

Additional causes of poor circulation may include injuries to the feet, excessive alcohol consumption, and the side effect of certain drugs, such as beta blockers.

Many people are looking for cheap and effective poor circulation treatment and a new technology has arrived which offers the solution.

TENS technology as a treatment

T.E.N.S (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) technology is a strong candidate for poor circulation treatment. T.E.N.S uses small electrical charges to stimulate the thousands small nerve endings on the bottom of your feet. These promote small muscle contractions, and the blood is circulated through the foot and back up to the legs. This improves in the lower leg area and near the ankles. This can deliver pain relief and boost lower leg circulation as the



process is applied. TENS is a completely non-‐invasive and safe nerve stimulation of the nerves.

The effects of electrical pulses in improving health and as poor circulation treatment have been known for thousands of years. As early as 63 A.D it has been reported by historical sources that this method was used by the Ancient Greeks.

Of the many options available today for poor circulation treatment, T.E.N.S offers one of the cheapest, safest, easiest and most convenient.
