Phentermine

Phentermine should be taken with a combination of a reduced calorie diet and increased physical activity.
Improve
Metabolism
These medications improve metabolism by increasing your muscle cells’ sensitivity to insulin and regulate fat cell development. They also help regulate blood sugar levels through decreasing glucagon when blood sugar levels are high, and increase insulin in the body.
Regulate
Digestion
These medications signal your body to move food slower from the stomach to the intestines, allowing you to feel satiated throughout your day.
Control Hunger Cravings
By regulating sugar absorption in the intestines, you feel full longer thus inhibiting the feelings of hunger and also cravings.
