There are three components to MIC- Methionine, Inositol & Choline. They are lipotropic and help break down fat.
Methionine is a precursor to glutathione (can be converted by the body into glutathione) which helps detox your liver. Methionine can also help break down fat deposits and remove heavy metals. Methionine can potentially help prevent fat development in the body and arteries.
This nutrient helps break down fats into usable energy. It is also important in transporting nutrients across the cell membrane, maintaining transfer of energy across membranes at the cellular level and facilitates conduction of nerve signals.
This nutrient can potentially help manage cholesterol levels and can work as a fat metabolizer. It is important in liver and gallbladder function and can help flush out toxins and fat which in turn can help boost metabolism. It can also potentially help with memory and nerve cell health and is used by the body to maintain healthy membranes at a cellular level.
It does not. This medication does not instantly dissolve fat. Inositol and Choline are important in fat filtering, regulating hormone and insulin levels, and mobilizing your fat deposits. The four ingredients in our injections help maximize your body's potential.
You cannot. While you may feel more energetic with these injections, it does not boost your metabolism to an extent that you can go without any exercise to successfully reach your weight loss goals.
No it does not. All ingredients are found naturally in a balanced diet. Giving MIC injections provides your body with a concentrated boost of these helpful nutrients without having the calories and fat that you normally take in at the same time.
MIC treatments require a quick and easy injection. Injecting the medication makes sure you have faster absorption and none of the nutrient benefits are lost in the digestive process (which can occur if taken orally).
You could see up to 2 to 4 lbs lost per week.
It may take 30 days to see the first effects from the injections, but paired with proper diet and exercise, you may see effects sooner.
Most patients will have no side effects other than the desired weight loss. Although uncommon, it is possible for people experience GI upset, urinary problems, and feelings of depression following the injection.
Your liver can process fats more efficiently - making weight loss easier. It can also help increase your energy levels allowing you step up your workouts and improve mood and mental clarity.
The typical regimen is weekly injections until desired results are achieved. Patients who wish to lose more than 50 lbs may want to consider twice weekly injections.
