Hot-Rox Extreme Review
Hot-Rox Extreme is a fat burning diet pill. According to their website, “We’ve one-upped previous versions of HOT-ROX — and once again, blown away the competition “. This Hot-Rox Extreme review will explore the validity of these claims and show what, if anything makes this product different from the competition.

A7-E is an ingredient found only in Hot-Rox Extreme diet pills. The Hot-Rox website says the following about A7-E
“A7-E is the longest acting and most effective fat-burning compound known to science. We’ve tested and tested and tested it. We know A7-E works and we know it keeps on working, day and night, 24/7. Simply put, A7-E is the master key that unlocks your thermogenic blast-furnace:
A7-E increases (thermogenic) malic enzyme, which produces oxaloacetate – the rate-limiting fuel of fat metabolism.
A7-E stimulates mitochondrial uncoupling, an extremely thermogenic process that’s fueled by fat metabolism.
A7-E increases thyroid-hormone levels (T3), the body’s thermogenic backbone.”
Too bad they give no information on the findings of their “tests”. This Hot-Rox Extreme review has no way to rate A7-E because Hot-Rox Extreme does not provide enough information about this ingredient, nor do they disclose exactly how much A7-E is contained in the formula. This smells like a sham.
One study on coleus forshkohli (Forskolin) found:
“Oral ingestion of forskolin (250 mg of 10% forskolin extract twice a day) for a 12-week period was shown to favorably alter body composition while concurrently increasing bone mass and serum free testosterone levels in overweight and obese men. The results indicate that forskolin is a possible therapeutic agent for the management and treatment of obesity.”
Since the amount of Forksolin in Hot-Rox Extreme is not disclosed it’s difficult to know if you’re getting the 25mg of forskolin that the study suggests.
Piperine is called a “thermonutrient” because it “enhances the body’s natural thermogenic activity.” I don’t know if the ability to absorb more nutrients will directly translate into lost weight, but the added health benefits of Piperine should not be overlooked.
Yohimbine comes from the bark of an African evergreen tree. It has been shown to increase fatty acid mobilization. It is also used to treat erectile dysfunction.
Caffeine is a clinically proven ingredient which increases metabolism. However, Hot-Rox Extreme does not tell you how much caffeine they have included. Thus, it is impossible to know if there is enough caffeine included to be effective.
Hot-Rox Extreme Side Effects
The side effects of Hot-Rox Extreme diet pills include rash, hot flashes, and headaches.
Hot-Rox Extreme Cost
One bottle of 110 capsules of Hot-Rox Extreme diet pills will cost you $69.99 ($39.99 online). At the maximum recommended dose of 4 capsules per day, one bottle will last about 27 days.
Hot-Rox Extreme Conclusion
This Hot-Rox Extreme review sees Hot-Rox Extreme diet pills as being very similar to many other diet pills. They include some proven ingredients, but they hide how much of each ingredient they have included. They do not give enough information on their main ingredient, A7-E. We recommend looking for a diet pill with proven amounts of proven ingredients.
