THE BIG SECRET THE FITNESS INDUSTRY DOESN'T WANT YOU TO KNOW ABOUT FAT BURNERS

To achieve a state of where your body is using fat for energy you need to burn more energy (calories, kilojoule) then what you are consuming, this is referred to as an energy deficit and can be tracked from day to day. To achieve a daily energy deficit this will happen through your dietary intake and exercise. Even with the strongest fat burning supplements or drugs if you are not in a calorie deficit fat loss will not occur. If you have ever taken a fat burning supplement and felt that it didn’t work as well as you have wanted then recording your dietary intake through applications such as “My Fitness Pal” is necessary, simply put eating huge volumes or burgers, soft drinks, ice cream and donuts then thinking of taking a fat burner to help with your body not putting on fat will not work.
