PinnoThin™ is a new and effective appetite suppressant produced by Lipid Nutrition. It suppresses the desire to eat and targets weight reduction at the source. PinnoThin™ helps to lower calorie intake and is 100% natural, vegetable-based product.

How does it work?
The active ingredient of PinnoThin™ is pinolenic acid, which is extracted from the nuts of the Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis). PinnoThin™ stimulates the release of the hunger-suppressing hormone CCK (cholecystokinin) and GLP1 (glucagon like peptide), which not only helps the body digest fats better but also sends a "full" feeling to the brain, decreasing the desire to eat.

Clinical research has already confirmed the effectiveness of PinnoThin™.
When Lipid Nutrition tested PinnoThin™ in a randomized, double blind cross-over trial, the results were immediately apparent: PinnoThin™ effectively suppresses appetite and promotes a feeling of fullness.

Thirty minutes after taking PinnoThin™, the test subjects reported significantly less desire to eat than subjects who had taken an olive oil placebo. Within 30-60 minutes, PinnoThin™ had also significantly increased the amount of CCK and GLP1 hormones in the blood.

PinnoThin™ has been proven to:

• Significantly increase the release of CCK and GLP1
• Promote a feeling of satiation or "fulness"
• Suppress the desire to eat
• Help reduce excessive caloric intake

The beneficial effects of PinnoThin™ have been demonstrated at a dosage of 3 grams.

PinnoThin™ is available as an oil, which means it can be used in many applications. This makes it possible to easily include it in a wide variety of food products, offering food producers the perfect means to differentiate their products from the competition and to command higher margins. PinnoThin™ enhancement can provide added value to almost any food or beverage - and because it's a 100% vegetable ingredient, it' also ideal for vegetarian products.

• Beverages: milk, fruit juices, yogurt drinks, etc.
