“A CLOSER LOOK AT SUPPLEMENTS” – VOLUME I: Pro Metabolic Enhancer (PME)

One of the most common questions I get from my nutrition clients is about supplementation in addition to nutrition.  It always comes up as a question because I rarely volunteer the idea on my own.  I believe that a proper approach to nutrition prioritizes overall caloric intake, then macronutrient balance, then micronurrient and vitamin balance, followed by nutrient timing, and FINALLY supplements (see chart below).  As I often explain at my seminars – “it is like watching your house burn down and worrying about what cable channels you have access to”.  If we don’t prioritze the basics of nutrition, no supplement in the world will help us.

After explaining that, I then explain that I do take a line of supplements, and I do believe in them (otherwise I would not be taking nor promoting them).  I use an array of products that TEN Performance has developed.  This company is pretty unique and their products are developed by doctors through a top notch process that is different from many other companies.  My daily bundle includes: Hydrocell Enhancer (HCE), Bound B Vitamin Complex (BBC), Velvet Deer Antler Extract (AGF), Regenabolic PM Nightime (RPM), and Pro Metabolic Enhancer (PME).  All of these supplements come in liquid form and are either taken sublingual, or can be added in your water.  I also use their grass fed whey protein (from cows not treated with hormones) if I am short of my protein goal for the day, as well as their BCAA which are unflavored and as pure as you can get.

My intentions with this “A Closer Look at Supplements” series is to highlight each of these products a bit in order to help my clients and blog followers understand a bit more about my personal supplement regiment.  Hopefully, these efforts will allow you to decide which products could benefit you personally – as everyone’s needs and wants are slightly different.

VOLUME I: Pro Metabolic Enhancer “PME”

When/How?! – I take PME immediately upon waking, usually while making a pot of coffee.  I take one serving, sublingual (2/3 of a dropper of liquid under my tongue) and let it sit there and absorb for two full minutes before swallowing.  I try not to eat or drink anything for 10 minutes after taking it.

TEN Performance has created an amazing product in their Pro Metabolic Enhancer (PME).  As a nutrition coach and consultant, many of the issues I see with my clients come from a metabolism that is damaged, or off track.  That damage is not often severe and simply needs a kick start and a bit of resetting to get back on track.  A properly balanced and timed diet, along with TEN’s PME supplement can help remedy this metabolic issue in a fairly short period of time.
PME is a formula of concentrated lipotropics.  Lioptropics are best known for their work as liver decongestants where they promote the breakdown of stored fats in the liver.  In the modern American way of life, stored fats in the liver are a common issue that can lead to sluggishness and weight gain.  By breaking them down, we are making the stored fat cells more mobile and able to be used as energy by your body.  Aside from the very important lipotropics, PME is filled with a very high potency B vitamin complex (B6 and B12) which is known to naturally boost metabolism and energy levels.  I find that this helps my clients to push through workouts on days where they would have been exhausted and decided to skip a training day.

The very crucial combination of these lipotropics, B vitamins, and Guarana extract (natural energy source that allows the body to recognize being “full” sooner) provides a thermogenic effect to your body, increasing BMR (basal metabolic rate) and your body’s capability to burn fat.  It also will enhance energy levels and endurance by allowing your body to produce higher amounts of oxygen in your blood.  All of this, in turn, will help burn fat and improve lean muscle retention.

I use this product daily, and love to recommend it to my clients because the benefits are too great to keep it a secret!  Almost everyone I come in contact with can benefit from the effects of PME – especially my female clients.  Along with a daily well balanced diet, proper timing of meals, and a consistent training program, using PME will be an amazing addition to your life in order to help you reach your goals!
