Citrus Aurantium by Another Name
Citrus Aurantium (the second word is pronounced oh-RAN-see-um) is more commonly known as the herb bitter orange. Today it is usually seen as an ingredient in weight loss products, although traditionally it has been used as a medicine by the Chinese for chest and stomach illnesses.
Citrus Aurantium and Advantra-Z
If you have been shopping for a weight loss supplement, chances are you have run into products containing Advantra-Z. Advantra-Z actually is made from immature citrus aurantium fruit, and has been shown to be very effective, perhaps even more effective than ephedra in producing weight-loss results. It is also safer than ephedra (which has now been banned by the FDA) because citrus aurantium does not affect blood pressure. Nevertheless, the consumer should always beware; only purchase products with some independent verification of quality, such as a PDR listing.
Citrus aurantium is effective in some people to increase fat-burning and speed up the metabolism, which makes it an excellent natural product for weight loss supplementation.
Citrus Aurantium in BioLean II
BioLean II is a weight loss supplement that contains citrus aurantium-based Advantra-Z. In addition to the thermogenic fat-burning and metabolic benefits mentioned above, ingredients in BioLean II help with appetite suppression and an overall increase in energy.
