Ever take a fat burner and then sit around waiting to “feel” something? Ever get jittery from as thermogenic only to crash two hours later? Or take the latest-greatest fat burner and not lose an ounce of fat? Those days are over now that N2Burn is here! Our new formula contains ingredients proven to:
You may have noticed that there’s never been a fat burner under the Need To Build Muscle name before. We’ve jumped in the ring with a product in every other category, from creatine to carbs to preworkout formulas, but we’ve never released our own premium fat burner until now. The reason for that is simple: We wanted to make sure we got it right the first time. Plenty of good companies have come out with really great proteins, preworkout formulas, and test boosters, but fallen flat on their faces when it came time to put out a really great fat burner.
Of course, the same can be said about any category, but the fat burner market is probably the most competitive one (think about it: it’s one of the only nutritional categories that you see television commercials for). So we knew that we needed to bring out A-game before we put our name on the product.
We knew we could formulate a great fat burner, and put tons of potent, high-quality ingredients into a capsule, but part of the problem is the capsule itself! Drop a capsule in a glass of water and what happens? After a few minutes, it dumps all of the ingredients into the glass at the same time. This is what causes that huge stimulant rush followed by a severe crash that you find with most fat burners.
That’s why we decided to use a time-release tablet (not a capsule, but an actual tablet). But we didn’t stop there – the coating on the capsule itself is thermogenic, and you’ll feel it working as soon as you take it – the coating is Cinnamaldehyde, a potent appetite suppressant and insulin regulator.
This way, N2Burn starts working as soon as it hits your tongue, and continues working throughout the day, because of our special time-release tablet and formula. We’ve designed this product to work alone as your only fat burner (2-3 tablets no more than 3x/day), but also to be used with a less complete, or faster-acting, formula (1 tablet along with your regular thermogenic).
In other words, maybe you crash after a couple of hours on your favorite fat burner – take one capsule of N2Burn with your current product, and you’ll enjoy a longer acting stimulant effect, thanks to our caffeine-amplifying and extending ingredients. Or maybe you still have stubborn bodyfat in the abdomen (guys) or legs (women)…N2Burn contains a special blend of yohimbe and Alpha-yohimbe that will target those areas. So even if you’ve already found a fat burner you like, you can use a single cap of N2Burn and turbo boost its effects!
The key here is the synergy between our ingredients. We built this formula from the ground up, to give you the best possible results, using only the highest-quality, scientifically-proven ingredients:
N2X (Caffeine) blend:
First we started with caffeine – a xanthine, and probably the most widely consumed fat loss agent in the world; whether it’s in your morning coffee or your fat burner, it’s been shown in studies – too many to even start mentioning – to burn fat through several mechanisms. It aids the muscle’s ability to contract, increases mental focus and clarity (blocking adenosine receptors) and it helps liberate and mobilize fatty acids for use as fuel instead of carbs and protein.
Caffeine is so important that we see it in nearly every fat burner on the market, and that’s because it not only elevates your resting metabolic rate – the degree to which your body burns calories while at rest – but it also boosts the amount of calories you’ll burn while exercising. This is why the time-release aspect of N2Burn is so crucial – it doesn’t hit you just drank a six-pack of energy drinks. It provides a clean, focused stimulant effect, with energy that doesn’t go sky-high, then leaves you crashing a few hours later.
Next, we added Naringin to the formula, based on a 1993 study showing that it could extend the effects of caffeine by up to 23% – again, this was to make our product last longer than the competition. Then we added Mangosteen, another ingredient that we believe acts synergistically with caffeine, by inhibiting certain enzymes that may degrade the caffeine molecule in the bloodstream.
Remember, we wanted this to be a time-released formula…we could have loaded it up with a ton of caffeine, but we didn’t need to, because our other ingredients will extend and amplify its effects, and make it feel like you’re using a much higher dose (but without the jitters). Evodia Rutaecarpa, which not only increases the metabolism of caffeine, but also acts similarly by influencing the secretion of catecholamines, from the adrenal glands and reducing the uptake of fat and increasing the body’s natural rate of burning fat and heat production.
There’s no reason to take a teeth-chattering, insomnia-inducing 400 milligrams of caffeine, when we can take advantage of synergistic ingredients that can make a lower dose work even better.
N2 Phenyl blend:
Phenethylamine (PEA) is an amine found in chocolate, thought to provide the “good” feeling that results from a candy bar – but without the fat gain! It is also an important neurotransmitter and “clean” feeling stimulant that works (*you guessed it) synergistically with caffeine.
But it also works to increase fat loss by stimulating the all-important release of norepinephrine, which is (as you know) a potent lipolytic (fat-burning) hormone. To boost it’s effects, we’ve included two related ingredients: tyramine (4-hydroxy- phenethylamine) and hordinine (N,N-dimethyl-4-hydroxyphenylethylamine). Together, these three ingredients act in unison to stimulate fat burning while elevating your mood. If you’ve never tried PEA before, do yourself a favor and try N2Burn! And even if you’ve tried it, you’ve never tried it with our unique blend of PEA analogues and synergists…
N2 BAT blend:
Originally, it was believed that humans didn’t retain much of their so-called Brown Adipose Tissue (BAT) after childhood – which is speculated, in part, to help explain why children have such fast (eat-anything-and-not-get-fat) metabolisms. Babies and infants have large amounts of brown adipose tissue, which is critical to their body’s ability to produce heat.
White fat cells store energy from the food we eat, but brown fat consumes calories to generate body heat. So you can see why we wanted to include something that helps stimulate this tissue. BAT stimulation has been shown to have incredible effects on fat loss, originating at the mitochondrial level; but only recently have those effects been shown to apply to human adults, who (it turns out) have a significant amount of this type of fat.
Green Tea Extract (EGCG) contains polyphenols and catechins, and was shown to significantly boost metabolism in a study published by the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. This is thought to be through Brown Adipose Tissue stimulation. Both Undaria pinnatifida (brown seaweed) and Norsynephrine Hydrochloride have been included as well, and both have also been shown to have considerable effects on brown adipose tissue.
N2 Heat blend:
Ever eat spicy food and find that you’re sweating halfway through the meal? Well that’s your body reacting to the spices by increasing thermogenesis, or the rate at which your body produces heat (and burns calories). Capsicum annum, or chili pepper capsinoids are often to blame for this reaction, and that’s exactly why we’ve included it in N2Burn. But not only does it boost your body temperature, it also helps with suppressing the appetite. Think about it: you can’t eat a ton of spicy food, not only because it’s hot, but also because you stop eating sooner. This is because of the appetite suppression found in hot spices. But even better is the fact that capsinoids can not only reduce overall bodyfat, but can also produce a site-specific reduction of abdominal fat.
Ginger (Zingiber officinale) is a mild spice that has been shown to enhance energy metabolism and reduce lipogenesis (body fat accumulation)…even with a high-fat diet. We think this is important because we want people to think about this product for year-round use, not just for getting cut. Think about it: we’ve included a ton of fat-burning ingredients, but also a ton that prevent you from gaining body fat. This way, you can use a lower dose of this product while bulking, and make sure that your gains are lean body mass and not fat.
N2alpha blend:
Alpha receptors are like the traffic cops of fat loss. Without their signal to go, fat loss gets stopped in its tracks. Unfortunately, these receptors are abundant in so-called “problem fat” areas, i.e. the abdomen for men and the hips and thighs for women. Yohimbe hydrochloride and Alpha-Yohimbe (a more potent analog) are alpha-2 receptor antagonists –they deactivate the alpha-2 receptors and allows norepinephrine to mobilize stubborn fat stores. Both of these alkaloids are potent stimulants as well, and help contribute to the overall energy you’ll get from N2Burn.
Unfortunately, not all fat burners contain these alpha-receptor antagonists, which makes other products even more effective if you stack a single pill with your current (non-Alpha-stimulating) fat burner.
N2 Balance blend:
We consider Ashwagandha to be a must-have ingredient in any fat burner. It has been shown in peer-reviewed medical research to elevate T3 and T4 levels, while also lowering markers of oxidative stress, and boosting testosterone at the same time. Research also indicates that it is a potent anabolic compound, and because the body is typically stressed while we’re trying to lose fat, this is very important. One of the first things to go on a diet is optimal thyroid levels, as your body attempts to readjust to a lower caloric intake, to maintain body weight. Testosterone levels also take a beating on a diet, as does performance. Ashwagandha can single-handedly tip the scales from losing muscle instead of fat to burning fat and actually gaining muscle!
If your current fat burner doesn’t include this ingredient, you need to start adding N2Burn into your supplement stack. Whether you’re bulking, or trying to gain muscle while keeping body fat off, this herb is essential to your success.
Finally, to balance the formula out, we included Coffee Arabica, Fenugreek, and R-ALA were added to help with insulin levels. As you probably know, elevated insulin levels can lead to the accumulation of adipose (fat) tissue, so we thought to include several ingredients that aid with insulin management. Coffee Arabica reduces the amount of carbohydrates stored by the body, fenugreek has been shown to favorably alter blood sugar, and R-ALA balances insulin and glucose levels.
And because the thyroid can take a beating while you’re dieting, we’ve added olive leaf, which can elevate active thyroid (T3) levels. And we’ve included N-Acetyl L-Tyrosine, which is an epinephrine precursor, but also promotes a healthy thyroid gland, along with the known-thyroid stimulator Diiodotyrosine and gugglesterones. These ingredients will all help you achieve optimal thyroid levels, and therefore, optimal fat loss.
Phytosterol Extract and L-Theanine have both been shown to aid digestion, and because we suggest using this product before meals, we couldn’t imagine not including them. If you recall, the coating of our tablets is Cinnamaldehyde, which helps you eat less and control insulin. Therefore, taken right before a meal, N2Burn will help to curb your appetite, control insulin, and even help digestion – we’ve got you covered from your first bite to your last, whether you’re bulking, cutting, using N2Burn alone or in conjunction with a another fat burner.
