Dietary supplements in powder form in capsules are very easy to use, but many involuntarily compare them with tablets that are not so pleasant to swallow. Sprays and drops in the form of dietary supplements have appeared relatively recently, and many people treat innovations with caution. Ready-to-use fat burning and thermogenic drinks have a limited shelf life and contain sugar and preservatives, which certainly does not add to their benefits. But powdered weight loss products are becoming more and more popular. Convenient sticks have appeared, the contents of which, when dissolved in water, turn into a cocktail that can replace a full-fledged meal. Guarchibao FatCaps, DietDrink, Slimmer, Turboslim Express Weight Loss, Turboslim, Vita la Vita, Eatless New, XLS Medical – and this is not a complete list of the assortment. Manufacturers of sports nutrition have also taken the trend into account – they offer their customers dry protein cocktails in powder form in jars and tetra paks. And powdered ordinary products with fat burning or other useful properties can also be used for weight loss. For example, mustard, cinnamon, kelp, ground ginger root. The advantages of this form are obvious – the powder retains the highest possible concentration of nutrients, does not require preservatives and dyes, has a long shelf life, and you can take a stick with you and make a drink at any convenient time.
