FAQ

What is FightCaps?

The FightCaps formula started out as a pill to save lives in case of a food shortage; to extend life in situations that would otherwise lead to starvation. The formula and dose were designed to simulate food and use stored body fat for energy metabolism. Of course, with no calorie intake, users testing the pill discovered that they were losing weight without the unwanted side-effects of a starvation diet or fast.

An avid MMA fan (co-founder, Pat Gorman) realized that the formula might work well for fighters, who often need to shed several pounds quickly to make weight for fights. The formula was revised and optimized to maximize weight loss, and FightCaps was born.

As a result, FightCaps fills the following diet supplement roles:

  • Multivitamin Supplement
  • Diet Pill
  • Natural Appetite Suppressant

What does it do?

FightCaps supplies your body with natural, pure nutrition. FightCaps was formulated to be easy to digest. Once released, the nutrients bond with a trivial amount of pure cane sugar, which helps your body recognize the nutrients as food so that your cells can absorb and consume them properly.

The nutrients work together to:

What is it not?

FightCaps contains no stimulants, and it’s safe for men, women, and children.

It is not a good source of calories, protein, or fat. That makes FightCaps great for weight loss, but we recommend pairing it with a diet containing small portions of healthy fats, such as nuts, avocado, and fish.

How does it help me lose weight?

In combination with a low carb diet that includes healthy fats, FightCaps provides the nutritional signals your body needs in order to burn stored fat instead of carbohydrates to supply your body with energy. When your body is getting proper nutrition in a form that it can recognize and use, you will lose the hunger pangs and low-blood sugar problems that drive you to eat too much.

Users of FightCaps frequently report losing four pounds in four days – but don’t take our word for it. Take the FightCaps Challenge and see for yourself!

Why is it better than the competition?

  • No glues or binders – Many nutritional supplements come in the form of tablets, which require glues and binders to stay together. Those binding ingredients make tablets difficult to digest, and can mask the nutritional properties of the formula from the body. If your body can’t detect or make use of the nutrition, what good is it?
  • The right dose at the right time – Most other vitamin supplements try to pack a full day’s worth of vitamins into a single dose. The problem is, your body isn’t designed to process nutrition that quickly. We spread the dose throughout the day so that your body has time to process and absorb the nutrients gradually – the way it works with real food.
  • No harmful stimulants – Most other dietary supplements contain stimulants such as caffeine, ephedra, or obscure herbal ingredients that could have unwanted side-effects. In particular, stimulants commonly found in many supplements and energy drinks have led to heart attack, stroke, and death.
  • No mystery ingredients – Maybe you’ve heard of acai berry or hoodia being marketed in weight loss products. Unfortunately, there is little evidence that either of them plays any significant role in weight loss. The Journal of the American Medical Association published a study (JAMA 280 (18): 1596–600) showing that hydroxycitric acid (one of the key ingredients in the recalled Hydroxycut formula) had no effect on weight loss or reduction of fat mass. That ingredient is suspected to be a cause of reported liver failures and deaths.

FightCaps was designed to look like food to your body, using natural ingredients, and a complementary blend of nutrients that your body can actually make use of. There are no harmful stimulants, and every ingredient has been thoroughly tested.

Unlike most weight loss supplements on the market, it works and it’s safe to use.

What’s in FightCaps?

FightCaps contains no stimulants. Only natural vitamins and minerals are used, along with well-researched ingredients generally recognized as safe. See the complete list of FightCaps ingredients for more information.

Why is Vitamin D important?

Vitamin D may play a crucial role in weight loss, according to several recent scientific studies. In one study, for every unit increase of vitamin D, subjects lost about a half-pound more while on their diets.

Vitamin D deficiency can lead to rickets in infants and children and osteomalacia in adults. Rickets was a common problem prior to the 1930′s, and was almost eliminated in the United States following a program to fortify milk with Vitamin D. Calcium and vitamin D intake throughout life in a healthful diet are essential to reducing osteoporosis risk.

On top of that, vitamin D has been linked to improved immune system function, potential cancer prevention, and a wide range of other benefits. Current research suggests that Vitamin D may have an impact much broader than the bone health issues that prompted the FDA’s recommendations for Vitamin D intake.

Vitamin D is naturally synthesized when your skin is exposed to sunlight – however, most people in developed nations don’t get enough sun to sustain adequate levels of Vitamin D. What’s more, there are very few foods containing Vitamin D, and most foods that do supply Vitamin D contain inadequate amounts. See the National Institute of Health Dietary Supplement Vitamin D Fact Sheet for more information.

There are two forms of oral Vitamin D. D2 (ergocalciferol) and D3. Studies show that D3 may be up to three times more effective at maintaining adequate levels of Vitamin D in the body – however, both forms occur in natural food, and they are metabolized differently. Both may play an important role in health. FightCaps contains 105% of the DV for D2, and 400% for D3.

Why do fighters like it?

We frequently receive feedback from fighters saying that they feel more energy, without ups and downs, or jitters. They can also take FightCaps on an empty stomach before and after workouts – something you don’t want to try with other multi-vitamin supplements.

FightCaps helps fighters stay sharp between meals, or whenever food is not available. It really shines during fast weight-cuts leading up to weigh-ins.

Is it just for fighters?

Fighters love FightCaps because they need to cut weight fast to make fighting weight, but FightCaps also makes a great daily multi-vitamin supplement that’s safe and effective for anyone. You can take it to lose weight (a little or a lot), or just to stay healthy. Diabetics have reported that it helps maintain proper blood sugar levels, and migraine patients have reported fewer and less severe migraine attacks. (FightCaps is not intended to diagnose or treat any disease – as with any dietary supplement, you should consult with your doctor about possible medical benefits. See the “Ask Your Doctor” question below for a handy guide).

What should I eat?

If you’re trying to lose weight, you need to eat fewer calories than you burn.

  • Dark green leafy vegetables
  • Fruits (especially low-carb fruits like berries and avocado)
  • Healthy fats and oils found in nuts (such as almonds), eggs, and olive oil
  • Fish and poultry
  • Small amounts of whole grains

What should I avoid eating?

  • Processed junk food
  • Soda
  • Any product that contains high fructose corn syrup

Is FightCaps Safe for Diabetics?

FightCaps has a free diabetic exchange. It won’t make your blood sugar drop or spike. The tiny amount of sugar in FightCaps is there to help your body recognize and absorb the nutrients in the product in a manner that is safe and healthy for everybody.
