​QNET launches Belite Weight Management Programme in Time to Combat Holiday Binge Eating

The festive season is a time to reconnect, relax, and enjoy much needed respite from the travails of the day-to-day work routine. This is especially so during the year-end when the holiday season rolls around and healthy diets and exercise plans are replaced by big meals, drinks, and relaxing with friends and family. According to a study published in the International Journal of Obesity, the holiday season results in most people gaining weight as a result of holiday parties and a more relaxed approach to diet and lifestyle.

International e-commerce based direct selling company QNET is launching Belite 123, a weight management product, for its global customer base to help them manage their dietary habits and weight during this holiday season and beyond. Belite 123 is an innovative weight management product that harnesses the dual power of nature and science.

Belite 123: Weight Management in Three Steps

Belite 123 comprises three components that work in tandem to offer a weight management plan that can be easily integrated into one’s daily lifestyle.

• Belite 01 is a natural tea that acts as a morning booster to increase metabolism and regulate blood pressure. It includes a unique blend of natural green tea, chrysanthemum flowers, and kaffir lime leaves that help kickstart the day before the festivities are in full swing.
• Belite 02 is the star of the Belite 123 range, featuring the African Mango species known as Irvingia Gabonensis, an ingredient renowned for its weight-loss properties. Popular American Health expert Dr Oz calls it a “breakthrough supplement” and a “miracle in your medicine cabinet”.According to a 2009 study in in Lipids in Health and Disease the Irvingia Gabonensis acts a natural appetite suppressant. Participants of the study experienced significant improvements in body weight, body fat, waist size, cholesterol levels and blood sugar levels. This natural ingredient works by improving the functions of Leptin and Adiponectin, which are hormones associated with appetite, thermogenesis, and weight loss.

Belite 02 also contains DNF-10, a patented yeast peptide that helps lower calorie intake and reduce body fat mass. This ingredient also helps to inhibit the deposition of fat around internal organs, leading to reduced risk of obesity. This is especially useful during the Holiday Season as a pre-lunch cuppa to suppress appetite and reduce food intake naturally, thus avoiding overeating at lunch and snacking (and enjoying guilt-free dinner celebrations).

• Belite 03 is a natural tea consisting of cinnamon bark, senna leaves, and peppermint leaves, aimed at detoxing the body and improving digestion. This tea serves as the perfect end to the day, as it can calm the senses and heal the body during sleep.
• Most people don’t realise that our homes are filled with objects that can release toxins over an extended period of time. Personal care products, plastic containers, and non-stick coating on kitchen utensils are just a few of the items that may release toxins that can disrupt hormones and indirectly cause weight gain. A cup of Belite 03 before bedtime helps with promoting detoxification, soothing inflammation, and inducing calm allowing the body to get complete rest and heal internally.

In summary, Belite 123 can detox the body and boost metabolism, supress appetite, downregulate the obesity gene, inhibit fat deposition, lower cholesterol, reduce inflammation, and improve bowel movement. Regular use of the Belite 123 weight management system delivers a holistic solution to anyone concerned about their weight.

QNET CEO Malou Caluza says the launch of Belite 123 is timely. “Pandemic weight gain is a real thing as people under lockdown are snacking more, exercising less, sleeping at odd hours, and not moving enough. Now that the holiday season is upon us and some of the restrictions have been eased in many countries, it is bound to lead to a surge in social gatherings and holiday binge eating which will only exacerbate the issue.”

“The Belite 123 weight management system is the result of years of research and is supported by four different U.S. patents* and 9 clinical studies** that prove its efficacy. It uses a holistic approach towards weight loss that looks beyond diet as the cause of weight fluctuation and takes into account a combination of factors such as gut health, genetic influences, and lifestyle habits”, Caluza explains.

The introduction of Belite 123 is the perfect addition to QNET’s Health and Wellness portfolio of products that aims to provide its customers with solutions for healthy, holistic living. With Belite 123, QNET’s customers can prepare for a guilt-free holiday season.
