Morosil: a natural active that offers benefits beyond weight loss

A new name has gained prominence when it comes to weight loss: Morosil, a dry extract obtained from the juice of Moro oranges, grown in the Mediterranean, exclusively in the area around the Etna volcano in Sicily (Italy).

Best of all is that the darling of the moment is a natural asset, that is, it is not a medicine and does not offer side effects.

Morosil® is an authentic product from Galena, a company that distributes raw materials to compounding pharmacies. It can be used in capsules, sachets or incorporated into recipes such as chocolate, smoothies, juices and shakes.

Composition of Morosil

In the table below you can see the main nutrients present in Orange Moro (or Red), the active ingredient in Morosil.

Morosil, in fact, emerged based on the Mediterranean diet (already well known for the numerous health benefits it offers), since the Moro orange is an important component of this diet.

Claudia Coral, pharmacist and vice-president of Galena, points out that, as they live in an inhospitable environment (which makes it difficult for animals and plants to survive), Moro oranges had to adapt to the different conditions in which they are exposed and , because of these different climatic and environmental characteristics, they have a unique composition.

“Studies show that Moro oranges are the main source of a kind of red pigments called anthocyanins, a potent antioxidant responsible for weight loss. This pigment is not found in other citrus fruits. In addition, it contains a high concentration of vitamin C, flavonoids and hydroxycinnamic acids”, explains pharmacist Claudia.

And it was taking into account the specific benefits of Moro oranges that Morosil was created – which stands out especially for helping with weight control, but also promises other advantages.

Morosil benefits

According to Gilberto Kocerginsky, an orthomolecular physician, and Andreia Barros, a nutritionist, from the Linnus Institute (RJ), the main benefits of using Morosil are identified as:

• weight management;
• Increased insulin sensitivity;
• Reduction of triglycerides and total cholesterol;
• Reduction of abdominal fat;
• Powerful antioxidant action.

Claudia explains that, due to the action of anthocyanin C3G in the body, Morosil becomes an important ally in the management and reduction of measures.

“In just 90 days, there is a loss of up to 50% of abdominal fat. However, in 60 days the results are already noticeable.”

But, according to the drugmaker, the benefits go far beyond weight management. “By decreasing the levels of fat in the body, the active contributes to a greater synthesis of adiponectin, helping to increase insulin sensitivity, being of great value for glycemic control.”

Morosil also helps to reduce triglycerides and total cholesterol, as Claudia recalls. “And more: recent studies show that in addition to the benefits in weight management, Morosil helps in the care of hepatic steatosis (accumulation of fat in the liver)”, he adds.

Does Morosil really lose weight?

Due to the action of anthocyanin in the body, Morosil has stood out as an important ally in the management and reduction of measures, especially in the abdominal region.

Claudia cites that a study, published in the renowned International Journal of Obesity, showed that Moro extract, obtained from enriched juice, can neutralize weight gain and induced fat accumulation in animals fed a high-fat diet, with a reduction in abdominal fat. from 25 to 50%.

Kocerginsky and Andreia emphasize that no method used in isolation for weight loss purposes (exchange of fat mass for lean mass) is effective by itself. “The use of Morosil is an important tool associated with other tools. The individual interested in using it should always seek a qualified health professional.”

How to use

Morosil® is found in compounding pharmacies. Kocerginsky and Andreia point out that it can be administered in capsules, sachets and added to functional foods (such as solid and instant drinks) for weight management.

The most common form of its use has been in capsules, with the active associated or not with other actives. Claudia highlights that the usual recommended dosage is 400mg to 500mg a day, which can be divided or not. “Morosil does not have a specific time to be administered”, she says.

Contraindications

Contraindications, according to Kocerginsky and Andreia are:

It is always interesting to consult a professional you trust before starting the use of Morosil, although no side effects have been pointed out in the studies.

Morosil and Actgym

The association of Morosil®+Actgym™ has attracted a lot of attention. According to Claudia, this is a complete solution for body modulation, as the administration of In (internal use) and Out (external use) assets acts synergistically, enhancing the action of the actives.

“Morosil®, use In, has many benefits. Actigym™, use Out, is an active obtained by marine biotechnology that promotes the integrity of type I muscle fibers and increases mitochondrial activity, defining the body and giving tone to the abdominal region, arms and buttocks”, highlights the pharmacist.

“The indication is to apply Actigym™ in the desired regions (arms, thighs and abdomen or as needed) twice a day”, explains Claudia. Morosil, on the other hand, is worth remembering, is consumed through capsules, sachets or added to functional foods.

Morosil and other associations

Morosil can still be manipulated along with other assets. Therefore, the ideal is to seek professional guidance to ensure a personalized formula that best meets your needs, thus ensuring even better results.

Claudia cites some examples of internal uses (In use):

• Morosil® + Cacti-Nea™: aid in reducing abdominal fat and fluid retention.
• Morosil® + Saffrin: collaboration in reducing measurements and reducing anxiety.
• Morosil® + ID-alG™: reduction of measures with different and complementary mechanisms.

It is worth remembering that no product “works miracles”. For really significant results, the ideal is to associate the use of Morosil (alone or with more actives) with a healthy diet and the practice of physical activity.
