Meet the New Way to Activate GLP-1 – No Injections Required

In partnership with Calocurb. Editor’s Note: We only select and work with partners that meet our quality standards, so you can rest assured we only endorse products we believe in.

There's no denying it: GLP-1 activators are everywhere. At first, flagship offerings like Ozempic felt unfathomable, inaccessible; secretive serums traveling through the whisper networks of Hollywood. These days, most brands have their own TV commercial (including one starring none other than Serena Williams). Yet that doesn't mean GLP-1s are available to everyone who wants help controlling their cravings. The vast majority are still prescription-based, which requires doctor consultations to determine if you qualify.

Enter Calocurb ($76.54/month with subscription), the clinically proven, 100% natural appetite control suppressant that sidesteps all that red tape and then some. Since Calocurb works naturally instead of pharmaceutically, the brand is able to ship directly to consumers without a prescription – but not due to any shortcuts on the clinical research side. In fact Calocurb screened over 900 plants to find the most powerful, natural appetite suppressant there is: a New Zealand-grown bitter hops flower extract called Amarasate. By delivering this extract in capsule form, Calocurb triggers your body to release its "feel full hormones," namely CCK, PYY and yes, GLP-1.

That makes Calocurb not just unmatched when it comes to convenience, but a welcome alternative to a process otherwise full of injections, medical hurdles and supply shortages. If, like us, you're hoping to fill your New Year with moderation over excess, there's no easier, more homeopathic way to support those goals. Gone are the days of relying on white-knuckled willpower alone. Read on to find out more about our new favorite paradigm shift. 

A Is For…

Amarasate, the ground-breaking, patented active ingredient at the heart of Calocurb. Though its origins are humble – it comes from a variety of hops flower native only to New Zealand – its effects are beautifully potent. Across a plethora of clinical studies, Amarasate has been proven to reduce hunger by 30%, reduce cravings by 40% and reduce caloric intake by 18%. And if that's not enough, all of that upsides come when ingested just one hour before eating. If that sounds too good to be true, the proof is in the three clinical trials run for both men and women.*

Best of all, the effects of Amarasate – the active ingredient in Calocurb – are a natural response in the body, triggered only by 100% plant-based, gluten-free, non-GMO ingredients. For that we have Plant & Food Research (PFR) to thank, New Zealand's largest Crown Research Institute. A result of the 15 years and over $30 million that PFR spent on innovation, Calocurb stands as a truly unique product on the market, made up of only two other ingredients: rosemary leaf extract (a natural preservative) and a small amount of vegetable oil (for dispersal upon contact with the gut surface). No additives, no stimulants; nothing to hide behind the curtain.

Simple as 2x2 

As mentioned above, getting started on Calocurb is as easy as ordering your first shipment or subscribing for even better savings. Once it's arrived, the dosage on-ramp is spread out over five days. On Days 1 and 2, you'll take one capsule one hour before a meal; on Days 3 and 4, you'll take one capsule twice daily, also one hour before meals; and from Day 5 and beyond you'll keep that cadence of twice a day but go up to two capsules each time. The best results come when taken on an empty stomach, which leads to GLP-1 activation within an hour and the appetite-suppressing effects lasting from four to six hours.

The beauty of this gentle approach is that it doesn't require you to radically reshape your relationship to food. Feeling fuller faster simply allows us to stop eating when we've had enough, instead of being driven by compulsion or boredom. Research shows that the results are best when paired with healthy habits, which makes Calocurb the perfect companion for a myriad of resolutions – if you're starting to intermittently fast, eat less carbs, or even just limit snacking, you've got a new tool in your corner. 

Of course, everyone's body is different, but Calocurb users tend to report reduced hunger and fewer cravings within the first four days. Within the first two weeks, this can lead to initial changes in eating patterns and portion sizes, which can start to positively influence weight health goals. All sorts of inputs, from exercise to your individual metabolism, can influence these results, but Calocurb's support team is on-hand to offer guidance through any adjustments that may be needed. And no matter the circumstance, the protocol is easy to remember: just two capsules, taken twice a day.

The Natural Way

Taking a natural, non-pharmacological approach pays so many other dividends too. Calocurb is completely non-addictive and safe to stop at any point, with no dependency or withdrawals to worry about. It also doesn't lose any effectiveness over time, working to support natural GLP-1 release in such a way that doesn't elevate tolerance. Its user-friendliness makes an ideal fit for anyone brand new to the world of GLP-1, but also for those looking to maintain weight loss while transitioning off of injectables. 

That means there's no "ideal user" for Calocurb – and why should there be, when all of us grapple with managing our cravings? With Calocurb, you get a simple, all-natural solution to an age-old problem, one that still allows you to love what you eat while taking control of your health. As a science-led, clinically-proven product used by over 20,000 people around the world, it has everything in the way of pedigree (including our seal of approval). Add to that a price tag that's much lower than virtually every competitor, and what's not to love?
