I met Lauren from Pacific Health Labs at the last WCF event, and she gave me a a couple weeks worth of Forze GPS, and I have been hooked ever since. It’s rare that I get excited about any supplement, especially supplements in bar form…but this one seems to be a real winner. Before I post the information I received from PHLI, I want to fill you in on my experience with the product in the past week. I started a new job recently, and I’m always on the road…eating right is tough, and I never know when I’ll find time for a meal. I’ve been eating a Forze GPS bar for breakfast, and when they say that that it “helps tame the hunger flame for up to 3.5 hours” they aren’t kidding. They only have about 160 calories per bar, and I’ve been eating a bar every morning before 8:00AM, and I haven’t been hungry until 12:00-1:00…and it wasn’t a flukey day that I was too busy to be hungry. Literally everytime I eat one, it kills my hunger for 4 hours…and they taste awesome. For those of you who know me, you know I like to eat…so yeah, eating 160 calories and being full for 4 hours just doesn’t happen for me…until recently anyway.

Here is the info they sent over..some is from an email, and some is from their marketing material.

From the email:

Our newest innovation platform (FORZE GPS) delivers a benefit insight that resonates not only with our core endurance athlete, but that could also resonate with an audience actively engaged in studying, training, and competing in mixed-martial arts.  Both sets of consumers (though slightly different demographically) understand intuitively that the leaner a body becomes, the greater its potential for speed and endurance.

The endurance athlete and the MMA competitor inherently value speed and endurance and they are both looking for tools (not magic bullets) to help them achieve their athletic goals.  The concept of a tool is important because just like in endurance events where it can take an individual several years to develop the athletic capability to compete at the highest levels, one does not become a master in a particular school of martial arts without years of training and hard work.  What you put in is what you get out.  There are no short cuts.

 FORZE GPS is the first appetite management tool designed specifically for athletes allowing them to get more out of their hard work. Though a patented blend of natural fats, protein, and calcium, FORZE GPS activates the body’s natural appetite control signal to help tame the hunger flame for up to 3.5 hours and help decrease subsequent food intake up to 20%.  Athletes, like the average consumer, wrestle with hunger: the 10am cravings, the late-night snack binges, etc. etc. However, athletes, unlike the average consumer, recognize that optimal weight is directly linked to optimal athletic performance.  And, they are just as engaged—if not more engaged—than the average consumer in managing their nutritional choices.  Unlike the average consumer, a 5-10lb weight loss for an athlete is not about fitting into a new pair of designer jeans or looking good in a particular bathing suit.  It’s about a faster mile split.  It’s about being able to have a higher lactate threshold to be able to withstand and outlast your opponent.  It’s can be the difference between winning and losing.  Get leaner.  Get faster.

From the marketing material:

   FORZE GPS is the first appetite management tool designed specifically for athletes. With a patented† blend of natural fats, protein and calcium, FORZE GPSTM activates the body’s natural appetite control signal. Designed to be taken before or between meals as a snack replacement, FORZE GPSTM helps control your hunger so you can achieve your performance goals. With FORZE GPSTM you now have a nutritional tool to help tame your hunger flame.

One of the keys to getting leaner is appetite regulation. Most people, and even many athletes, find it difficult to satisfy their appetite each day without eating more calories than they need and consequently accumulating excess body fat stores.
