A weight loss system is presented herein. In one embodiment, the weight loss system that accelerates weight loss in a subject eating a caloric restricted diet with a minimum daily protein intake of about 3 oz. and engaging in daily physical activity equivalent to about 5,000 steps per day is presented. The weight loss system can comprise an effective amount of: an antimicrobial component that includes berberine, cinnamon and curcumin; fish oil; a probiotic component that includes Lactobacillus spp., Bifidobacterium spp., and Streptococcus spp.; an antioxidant, phytochemical component that includes apple extract, grape extract, green tea extract, and olive extract; and a vitamin component that includes vitamins A, B, C, D, and E. The weight loss system can stimulate a weight loss of at least 3% more than if not administered to the subject. Further presented herein is a method of facilitating weight loss in a subject and a method of improving the health of a subject participating in a weight loss program.

An herbal water beverage containing hemp preferably includes water, sugar, organic flavoring, vitamins, and hemp oil. Organic hemp seed oil is added to a water based solution of organic gum arabic and organic maltodextrin. The solution is homogenized and then spray dried. During the drying process the hemp seed oil is surrounded by a matrix of maltodextrin and gum arabic that protects it from exposure to air (oxidation). The water is removed in a dryer through evaporation leaving hemp oil droplets surrounded by a film of gum arabic and maltodextrin matrix. The gum arabic acts as an emulsifier, retarding the separation of the hemp seed oil once it is added to the water, sugar, organic flavoring, and vitamins to form the finished aqueous beverage.
