    How Do Fat-Burners Actually Make You Loose The Weight?

    Does it mess with your hormones in any way? How does the process work?

    Most aim to help curb appetite, raise body temp as well as aid in the release of FFA's into the bloodstream. Aide from T3 which is not OTC, most do not effect hormones.

    actually most stimulants (beta adrenergic and Camp) do affect thyroid hormone conversion (metabolites)- though t3/t4 conversion in particular- this is generally considered to create an environment less catabolic to muscle tissue. T3 and other thryroid derivates are hormones and can have wide ranging impacts on hormone production (can but not necessarily will)

    though agree that appetite suppression and fatty acid utilization (+ increased availability) are a big part of their "magic".

    components often have specific actions: for instance

    yohimbine has particular benefit in those with high alpha 2 adrenoceptor ratios/concentrations in tissues (this can be due to both genetic and hormonal- estrogenic influences)
