Clenbuterol in weight reduction and body building

Clenbuterol

Clenbuterol is a b2-agonist that acts on the b2 receptors and is used by asthmatic patients. It is one of the potent bronchodilators and thus relieves bronchoconstriction. Chemically, it is an amine containing nitrogen in its chemical structure. Due to its extra improved oxygenation capacity, it is also used by athletes for increasing stamina. It reduces body fat by increasing the metabolism of body. That is why it is also used to reduce body fat. It is also considered as an anabolic steroid because it increases the muscle mass of the body. Due to this property, it is widely used by body builders globally.


Clenbuterol as a weight loss drug:

Weight can be reduced by various methods like; by taking food supplements, by taking herbal products, by joining the gym or by adhering to a strict dieting plan. Most of the people want to reduce their weight by means of gym. It is a good method for weight reduction but it gives results after very long time. Clenbuterol is an ideal method of weight reduction. Clenbuterol produces excellent results with in no time. It reduces the weight by increasing metabolic rate of the body. It has proved clinically that a drug which increases the metabolic drug can reduce body weight. All obese people are overweight and have an excessive amount of fat. Fat in obese people is distributed most commonly in the thighs and visceral region. When clenbuterol is taken in the body, it increases metabolism of the body. It has proved in the research that for every degree increase in temperature, metabolic rate of the body is increased up to 5%. This increased metabolic rate, increases the burning of fat. This excessive burning of fat leads to rapid weight loss. In addition to this effect, clenbuterol also increases the heart rate. When taken in high concentrations, it becomes non selective and increases heart rate. Increase in heart rate also leads to increased metabolic rate which leads to reduction in the body weight. In certain cases, thyroid hormones are also taken concomitantly to get better results.


Clenbuterol as a body building drug:

Most of the people use anabolic steroids to reduce weight and to increase the muscle mass of the body. Clenbuterol is one of the legally used anabolic steroid used for body building. Anabolic effect of clenbuterol is produced when it acts on the b3 receptors. These receptors are present in high concentration in animals but are present in lesser concentration in human beings. It has a small anabolic effect as compared to anabolic steroids. Clenbuterol exerts its anabolic effect by stimulating b3 receptors. B3 receptors stimulation increases insulin secretion and sensitivity. This stimulation of b3 receptor increases transport of glucose and amino acids towards the skeletal muscles. This increased transport is the ultimate mechanism of all the anabolic drugs. All of the anabolic drugs reduce the body fats and also increase protein or muscle mass of the body and ultimately leads to muscular body.

Anabolic effect of clenbuterol appears very late. However it has been seen that after few weeks, clenbuterol's efficacy is decreased because of the down regulation of beta receptors.
