QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse Ingredients

QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse is a 3 part system. The following are the ingredients contained in QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse.

-Iso-Burn AM Ingredients

Niacin 20 mg
Chromium 200 mcg

QT Capsimax Thermogenic Complex 244 mg
Caffeine Anhydrous is a good diet pill ingredient, but QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse does not reveal how much caffeine anhydrous it contains.
Capsimax Capsicum Fruit Extract
Metabromine Cocoa Extract is an appetite suppressant. It needs more clinical backing.
Bioperine helps the body to absorb nutrients. There is no evidence to suggest it causes weight loss.

Super Antioxidant Thermo Catalyst Complex 233 mg
Blueberry, Blackberry, Transresveratrol, White Willow Bark, Acai
These ingredients do not cause weight loss.

Iso-Burn Fatloss Activator 415 mg
Green Tea Leaf Extract does contribute to weight loss. However, in order for green tea to be effective it has to be taken in doses of 300 mg or more per day. QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse fails to list how much green tea it contains, so there is no way of knowing if it will be effective.
Raspberry Ketones has been shown to cause weight loss in mice, but more human testing is needed.
Mucuna Pruriens
Banaba Leaf lowers blood sugar levels, leading to weight loss. However, once again, QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse does not say how much Banaba Leaf it contains.
Sclareolide
Acetyl-l-carnitine
QT Detox Cleansing Complex 100 mg
Black Walnut Hull, Grapefruit Seed, Pau D’arco Bark, Pumpkin Seed, Myrrh Gum Powder, Hyssop, Gentian Root, Elecampane Root, Prickly Ash Bark, Yellow Dock Root, False Unicorn Root

None of these ingredients contributes to weight loss.

Iso-Cleanse PM Ingredients

Dietary Fiber 2 g

Iso-Cleanse Herbal Complex 2200 mg
Oat Fiber, Cellulose, Senna Leaf, Cascara Sagrada, Aloe Ferrox, Rhubarb, Prune Powder, Carob, Apple Fruit, Tamarind Extract, Date Fruit, Fig Fruit

NONE of the ingredients in Iso-Cleanse PM have been proven to contribute to weight loss.

Iso-Flush Ingredients

Vitamin B6 50 mg
Magnesium 100 mg
Potassium 100 mg
Herbal Blend 1000 mg
Buchu Leaf
Cornsilk Stylus
Couchgrass Rhisome
Hydrangea Root
Juniper Berry
Uva Ursi has been shown to cause drug interactions when combined with diuretics like Buchu Leaf.
Horsetail Extract

None of these ingredients has been shown to cause weight loss.

Proprietary Blend 156 mg
Dandelion Root
Green Tea is a very effective diet pill ingredient, but only when used in doses of 300 mg or more per day. Since QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse fails to list how much green tea it contains, there is no way of knowing if there is enough green tea to cause weight loss.
Guarana has been proven to contribute to weight loss, but only when combined with Damiana and Yerba Mate. Because QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse does not contain either Damiana or Yerba Mate, this QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse finds the Guarana in QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse will not cause weight loss.

So, overall, QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse does contain a few clinically proven ingredients, but it fails to list how much of each ingredient is included.

QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse Cost

QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse costs $59.99 for a 14 day supply. This is very expensive for a diet supplement, especially since there is no proof that QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse will actually work.

QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse Conclusion

This QuickTrim Burn and Cleanse review finds this product is not worth your time or money. It does contain a few proven ingredients, but the amounts of each ingredient are undisclosed. If you really want to lose weight, go with a diet pill that includes proven ingredients in the necessary amounts.

QuickTrim Extreme Burn Ingredients

Vitamin C (250 mg) is important to good health, but it does not cause weight loss.
Niacin (20 mg) does not cause weight loss.
Chromium (200 mcg) has shown varying results in clinical studies.

QT Capsimax Super Thermo Complex 225 mg
Caffeine Anhydrous has been shown to contribute to weight loss. However, QuickTrim Extreme Burn fails to list exactly how much caffeine it contains. Therefore, it is impossible for this QuickTrim Extreme Burn review to determine if there is enough caffeine in QuickTrim Extreme Burn to cause weight loss.
Capsimax Capsicum Fruit is cayenne pepper. More research is needed to determine the effect of capsicum on weight loss.
Metabromine is an appetite suppressant. This is another ingredient that needs more clinical backing.
Bioperine increases the body’s ability to absorb nutrients. There is no research to suggest that Bioperine directly contributes to weight loss, but absorbing nutrients better is probably a good thing.

Super C3G Lipolytic Complex (145 mg)
Raspberry
Blackberry
Blueberry
Acai Fruit Extract
Trans-resveratrol
Maqui Fruit
Grape
Pomegranate
Cherry
The ingredients in the Super C3G Lipolytic Complex contain anti-oxidants, which are important to good health. However, none of these ingredients have been proven to contribute to weight loss. Acai is especially popular right now, but don’t be fooled by the celebrity endorsements and bold claims made about acai. There is NO scientific evidence to show that acai does anything to contribute to weight loss.

Raspberry Ketones (75 mg) have been proven to contribute to weight loss in mice. Will it cause weight loss in humans? Possibly.

Extreme Fatloss Catalyst Complex (207 mg)
Green tea is an excellent, clinically proven diet pill ingredient. To be effective, green tea has to be taken in doses of at least 300 mg per day. QuickTrim Extreme Burn fails to list how much green tea it contains, but considering there are only 207 mg total in the Extreme Fatloss Catalyst Complex, this QuickTrim Extreme Burn review finds there is no way QuickTrim Extreme Burn contains enough green tea to contribute to weight loss.
N-acetyl-L-tyrosine causes weight loss, but only when taken in doses of 500 to 1500 mg per day. Again, there is not nearly enough tyrosine in QuickTrim Extreme Burn diet pills to cause weight loss.
Sensoril Ashwagandha
Cinnamon Bark Extract
Banaba Leaf Extract has been proven to lower blood sugar levels, leading to weight loss. Since QuickTrim Extreme Burn fails to list how much banaba it contains, there is no way of knowing if there is enough banaba in QuickTrim Extreme Burn to cause weight loss.
Gymnema Sylvestre also helps control blood sugar levels.
Sclariolide
White Willow Bark Extract is an anti-inflammatory; it does not cause weight loss.

The gist on the ingredients contained in QuickTrim Extreme Burn is that there are a few clinically proven ingredients included. However, it’s difficult to know if they are included in the necessary amounts.

QuickTrim Extreme Burn Cost

QuickTrim Extreme Burn is sold exclusively by GNC and costs $49.99. While this is a medium-high price for a diet pill, being that there isn’t much reason to believe QuickTrim Extreme Burn will actually cause weight loss, I’d say it’s too much.

QuickTrim Extreme Burn Conclusion

This QuickTrim Extreme Burn review finds QuickTrim Extreme Burn is not worth your time or money. It does contain a few proven ingredients, but not in the necessary amounts. If you really want to lose weight, go for a diet pill that contains proven ingredients in the appropriate amounts.

Lipovox Hardcore Detox Ingredients

Lipovox Hardcore Detox doesn’t just have a long name, it also has a long list of ingredients. They’ve broken them down into a few different sections:

Patented Ingredient Blend (655mg)
Tonalin Cla
Super CitriMax
Pinnothin
Advantra-Z
NeOpuntia
Phase-2
7-Keto DHEA
Forslean
FucoPure

SuperFood Blend (400mg)
Acai
Cayenne
Wheatgrass
Garlic
Lactbacillus Acidophilus
Soybean Extract
LinumLife Flaxseed Lignans
Alfalfa
Buckwheat

Instant Detox Blend (710mg)
Dandelion Root
Uva Ursi
Buchu
Celery Seed
Psyllium Husk
Lemon Balm
Couchgrass
Milk Thistle
Parsley
Ginger

Antioxidant Blend (400mg)
Green Tea (50% caffeine)
Caffeine Anhydrous
DMAE
Alpha Lipoic Acid

The short of it is that you’re getting a lot of high quality weight loss ingredients here. They’ve basically taken the SuperFood ingredient profile of the original Lipovox and added a ton of other effective ingredients. Many of them have been proven in clinical studies to aid in weight loss. I would like to see them disclose how much of each individual ingredient is included.

You can click on the ingredients above to read the full reviews of the ingredients.

With so many ingredients packed in, it’s no wonder they had to go from 60 capsules to 180!

***Note***

Because of the recent concern and newly found evidence that the ingredient Hydroxycitric Acid (HCA) may be linked to certain health concerns dealing with the liver, we are no longer recommending Lipovox Hardcore Detox. Lipovox Hardcore Detox contains Super CitriMax, whose active component is HCA. The FDA, in a recent warning about Hydroxycut-branded products, said: “The agency has not yet determined which ingredients, dosages, or other health-related factors may be associated with risks related to these Hydroxycut products.”

While FDA hasn’t specifically identified HCA as the culprit, some believe that it may responsible for the health problems. One can never be too cautious. As such, all products containing HCA are no longer recommended on this website.

For more information on the FDA’s warning against Hydroxycut and possible dangers to the liver due to HCA, see the Hydroxycut Review.

Great Money Back Guarantee

One the things that really impressed me with Lipovox Hardcore Detox is their money back guarantee. In the diet pill industry, a good guarantee is anything from 60 to 90 days. Lipovox HardCore Detox offers a Lifetime guarantee on all unopened bottles AND on one empty bottle. This kind of guarantee is rarely seen in this industry.

Not a Big Fan of the Marketing

The same as the original Lipovox website, Lipovox Hardcore Detox still has the magazine covers posted near the top of the site. This is a common tactic used to add perceived credibility. It implies that the product was either feature in or endorsed by the magazine or celebrity. For example, the SuperFoods were definitely covered in both the Oprah magazine and TV show, but in no way did they endorse the Lipovox Hardcore Detox product.

Price

The Lipovox Hardcore Detox website has the product listed at $49.99 (only $20 more than the original Lipovox). If the product is effective, this is a decent price for a diet pill.

Conclusion

Lipovox Hardcore Detox is definitely a step up from the original Lipovox formula. The inclusion of so many proven ingredients should add quite a bit to its effectiveness. Since the appearance of possible health issues associated with HCA, however, I’m not able to recommend the diet pill. The price is good and the guarantee is stellar. If it weren’t for the HCA, I’d give Lipovox a green light.

Phentarmine is a diet pill trying to pose as an equal to Phentermine (a prescription weight loss medication with excellent results). Don’t be fooled; Phentarmine is NOT the same as Phentermine and has not been proven to cause weight loss. This Phentarmine review will explain the ingredients contained in Phentarmine diet pills and will help you see if this is the right product for you. Phentramine comes in tablets and capsules, each with different ingredients. Thus, this Phentramine review will detail only the Phentramine tablet.

Phentarmine Ingredients

Phentarmine proprietary blend (532 mg)
L-Phenylalanine is a feel good ingredient. There is no research to show Phenylalanine actually causes weight loss.
Synephrine HCL has been shown to contribute to weight loss. The important thing to note with Synephrine is the concentration–the higher the concentration the more effective it is. Since Phentarmine fails to list the concentration of Synephrine it contains, there is no way of knowing if the Synephrine in Phentarmine is enough to cause weight loss.
Theobromine is another mood enhancer; it does not contribute to weight loss.
Caffeine Anhydrous is simply dehydrated caffeine. Caffeine increases metabolic rate, leading to weight loss. However, Phentarmine dies not list how much caffeine anhydrous it contains.
Copper Sulfate
7-Keto (DHEA) contributes to weight loss when used in doses of 100 mg or more per day. Phentarmine does not say how much 7-Keto it contains, but it is extremely unlikely that Phentarmine contains enough 7-Keto to be effective in causing weight loss.
L-Carnitine has not been proven to contribute to weight loss.
L-Taurine is supposed to increase energy, but research does not prove it.

You will notice Phentarmine does include several great, proven diet pill ingredients. Unfortunately, Phentarmine fails to list how much of each ingredient is included so it is impossible to determine how effective it will be.

Phentarmine Cost

Phentarmine tablets cost $89.95 for a one month supply (which is supposedly a great deal from the regular price of $159). This is way too much for a diet pill, not to mention a diet pill that does not list how much of each ingredient it includes.

Phentarmine Marketing

The Phentarmine website tries to make it seem that Phentarmine is equal to Phentermine. Don’t be fooled by their lofty claims; there is NO scientific research to show Phentarmine contributes to weight loss.

Phentarmine Conclusion

This Phentarmine review finds Phentarmine tablets contain some great ingredients, but since the amounts are not listed, there is no way of knowing if they will work. Phentarmine tablets are way too expensive. Save yourself some time and money by taking a diet pill that includes proven ingredients in proven amounts.

Hydroxycitric Acid Update

On May 1, 2009 the FDA issued a warning to consumers to stop taking Hydroxycut-branded products. Over more than 7 years they have received 23 reports of health related issues with those taking Hydroxycut-branded products. The main health concern appears to be serious liver-related problems. Iovate Health Sciences Inc., the makers of Hydroxcut, have voluntarily recalled all of the products under question in the FDA’s report

Common symptoms of liver complications include:

• jaundice (yellowing of the skin)
• brown urine
• light colored stools
• unusual tiredness
• stomach pain
• itching
• loss of appetite
• weakness
• vomiting

In light of the recent FDA warning concerning the possible dangers of Hydroxycut-branded diet pills, many believe that the associated health risks are likely due to the inclusion of the commonly used ingredient Hydroxycitric Acid, or HCA. And while according to the FDA, “The agency has not yet determined which ingredients, dosages, or other health-related factors may be associated with risks related to these Hydroxycut products. The products contain a variety of ingredients and herbal extracts.” you can never be too cautious.

So, while further study and research is needed to confirm the link between HCA and the liver problems, until proven otherwise any products that contain HCA are no longer recommended on this website.

Thermo Cuts Ingredients

Chromium (300 mcg) has shown conflicting results in clinical trials.

Proprietary Thermo Cuts Blend (2970 mg)

Garcinia Cambogia Extract (Fruit)(65% HCA) does contribute to weight loss. However, Thermo Cuts hides the amount of Garcinia Cambogia it contains, making it impossible to know if there is enough to be effective.

NeOpuntia� Extract

Caffeine Anhydrous is simply caffeine. It does contribute to weight loss, but again Thermo Cuts diet pills fail to list the amount contained.

Phase 2® Brand White Kidney Bean Extract (Phaseolus Vulgaris) has been shown to contribute to weight loss. However, studies included 1500 mg of white kidney bean every day. It is extremely unlikely that Thermo Cuts contains enough white kidney bean to cause weight loss.

Green Tea Extract (Camellia Sinensis L)(Leaf)(40% EGCG/22% Added Caffeinea) does contribute to weight loss, but only when included in doses of 300 mg or more per day. Since green tea is included in a proprietary blend, it is impossible for this Thermo Cuts review to determine if there is enough green tea in Thermo Cuts diet pills to cause weight loss.

Promilin™ (Trigonella Foenum-Graecum)(Seed)(20% 4-Hydroxyisoleucine)

Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) does contribute to weight loss, but there is no way of knowing how much CLA is contained in Thermo Cuts.

L-Carnitine does not contribute to weight loss.

Grapefruit Extract (Peel)(20% Naringin)

White & Purple Willow Bark Extract (Salix Alba)(Bark)(15% Salicin)  supposedly enhances the thermogenic effect, but more research is needed to prove this.

Bioperine® (Piper Nigum & Longum L)(Fruit) helps the body absorb nutrients; it does not cause weight loss.

Vanadyl Sulfate

Thermo Cuts Cost

Thermo Cuts diet pills cost $25.99 for 200 capsules. If you take the maximum recommended dose of 12 capsules per day, one bottle will last about 16 days. This is quite expensive, especially considering the proven ingredients in Thermo Cuts are included in “proprietary” amounts (in other words, they put in very little of each ingredient just to say it is in there). Don’t bother with Thermo Cuts. Go with a diet pill that includes proven ingredients in proven amounts.

Thermo Cuts Guarantee

The Thermo Cuts website explains their 30 day guarantee. To get your money back, you have to have purchased Thermo Cuts through the website. Also, you have to call their customer service department and get a Return Authorization Number. At least 75% of the product has to be left for you to return the product. This return policy is a joke! If you only take 25% of the capsules, how will you possibly know if it works? Just one more reason to stay away from Thermo Cuts.

Thermo Cuts Conclusion

This Thermo Cuts review finds Thermo Cuts diet pills are really no different from countless others. They contain a few proven ingredients but hide them in a proprietary blend. They gouge you with the price and then make it next to impossible to return the product.

This Leanfire Inferno review tells the real story about this product. The company website has glitches and there is no way to contact the company. On top of that, Leanfire Inferno is too expensive.

Leanfire Inferno Ingredients

Niacin 30 (mg) does not cause weight loss.

Synephrine (20 mg) has proven itself to be an effective diet pill ingredient. The most important thing about synephrine is the concentration–the higher the concentration the more effective the synephrine. Leanfire Inferno does not say the concentration of the synephrine it contains.

Yohimbine (4.5 mg) causes weight loss by mobilizing fatty acid.

Green tea (300 mg) has been proven to contribute to weight loss when used in doses of 300 mg or more per day. This Leanfire Inferno review finds Leanfire Inferno diet pills do contain enough green tea to cause weight loss.

Caffeine anhydrous (200 mg) is dried caffeine; it has the same effects. Caffeine has been shown to contribute to weight loss. Leanfire Inferno contains a large amount of caffeine (green tea contains caffeine as well). Carefully consider your own reactions to caffeine before taking Leanfire Inferno; it could cause side effects associated with caffeine (jitters, sleeplessness).

E and G Gugglesterones (15 mg) do not cause weight loss.

Sclareolid 20 mg

Incinerator blend 50 mg

Cayenne pepper improves digestion and circulation; more research needs to be done to determine the effect on weight loss.

Black and white pepper

Leanfire Inferno Cost

Leanfire Inferno diet pills cost $39.99 for 92 liquid-caps. If you take the recommended 4 liquid-caps per day, one bottle will last 23 days. This is quite expensive for a diet pill, especially since it basically contains caffeine and yohimbine. You can find these ingredients in more effective diet pills for less money; look through our recommended products for some ideas.

Leanfire Inferno Marketing and Website

The links on the Leanfire Inferno website were not working at the time of this review. I was only able to view the website by using the links from a search engine. In addition, there is NO customer service information on the Leanfire Inferno website. They list only a contact address. There is no customer service phone number or email, so there is no good way to contact the company.

The Leanfire Inferno website says nothing about a guarantee, and I had no way of asking the company about their return policy. This leads me to believe there is no guarantee with Leanfire Inferno diet pills.

I am always skeptical about companies that make it impossible for customers to contact them; it makes me think they must have something to hide.

Leanfire Inferno Conclusion

This Leanfire Inferno review finds Leanfire Inferno is not worth your time. Although it does contain a few proven ingredients, the fact that the company does not want customers to contact them is troubling. Look through our recommended products; they contain proven ingredients in proven amounts, and their manufacturers have good customer service.

HydroxyRip Extreme Ingredients

Caffeine anhydrous (300 mg) is the same as regular caffeine. It does contribute to weight loss. However, this HydroxyRip Extreme review finds HydroxyRip Extreme diet pills contain a very high amount of caffeine (since there is caffeine in green tea as well). You should consider your own reaction to caffeine before deciding to take HydroxyRip Extreme or any other diet pill.

Green tea (270 mg) has been proven to contribute to weight loss when taken in doses of 300 mg or more per day. Thus, you will only get enough green tea to cause weight loss if you take the maximum recommended dose of HydroxyRip Extreme.

White willow (60 mg) is an anti-inflammatory. It does not cause weight loss.

Deanol acetamidobenzoate hydrogentartrate (45 mg)

Inositol Hexaphosphate (45 mg) transports fat from the liver. It is used to treat ADD and depression.

Xanthinol Nicotinate (45 mg) is supposed to increase blood flow. Studies have shown Xanthinol Nicotinate DOES NOT contribute to weight loss.

Codonopsis pilosula extract 5:1 (30 mg)

Evodia Rutaecarpine Extract (30 mg) has been shown to cause weight loss in mice, but more human studies need to be done.

Inula racemosa extract (30 mg)

Yohimbe bark extract (30 mg) increases fatty acid mobilization, leading to weight loss.

Aspidosperma quebrachoblanco extract (15 mg)

Troxerutin sophora japonica extract (15 mg)

Cinidium monnieri extract (12 mg) has anti-anxiety effects; it does not cause weight loss.

Bioperine (3 mg) increases the body’s ability to absorb nutrients. More research is needed to determine if Bioperine actually contributes to weight loss.

HydroxyRip Extreme contains only three proven ingredients (caffeine, green tea, and yohimbine). You can find a much more effective diet pill.

HydroxyRip Extreme Cost

HydroxyRip Extreme diet pills cost $19.99 for 120 capsules. The NSI (HydroxyRip Extreme manufacturer) website claims the retail price of HydroxyRip Extreme is $74.99. This is common among diet pill companies; they want you to think you are getting a great deal so you will buy their product. If you take the maximum recommended dose of 6 capsules per day, one bottle will last 20 days. This is not especially expensive for a diet pill, but you could get a much more effective diet pill for the same price.

HydroxyRip Extreme Guarantee

The NSI website says nothing about a guarantee for HydroxyRip Extreme. This usually means there is no guarantee. If you purchase HydroxyRip Extreme from another website or retailer, they might have their own guarantee or return policy. Be sure you know what the return policy is before purchasing any product.

HydroxyRip Extreme Conclusion

HydroxyRip Extreme does contain some good proven diet pill ingredients. However, you can find these same ingredients in more effective diet pills for about the same price. Look through our recommended products to find a diet pill that will work for you.

“The clinically proven, proprietary thermogenic blend in GNC X12™ has been shown to help you burn 12 times more calories. It also helps increase your metabolism before, during and after exercise; helping burn up to 278 more calories cumulatively” (website).

This GNC X-12 review will reveal the truth behind the claims made about GNC X-12, specifically detailing the ingredients and supposed research done on GNC X-12.

GNC X-12 Ingredients

Niacin (20 mg) does not contribute to weight loss.

Proprietary Thermogenic Blend (238.34 mg)

Caffeine Anhydrous is dehydrated caffeine; it has the same effects. Caffeine has been proven to contribute to weight loss. However, GNC X-12 does not disclose how much caffeine it contains, making it impossible for this GNC X-12 review to determine if there is enough caffeine in GNC X-12 to cause weight loss.

Capsimax Capsicum Fruit Extract is cayenne pepper. More research is needed to determine the effectiveness of capsicum on weight loss.

Bioperine Black Pepper Extract helps the body to absorb nutrients. There is no research indicating a direct link between bioperine to weight loss.

There is only ONE proven ingredient in GNC X-12 diet pills (caffeine), and GNC X-12 fails to disclose how much caffeine it contains. You would be much better off going with a different diet pill, one that includes proven ingredients in the necessary amounts.

GNC X-12 Research

The GNC website claims research done on GNC X-12 has shown great weight loss results. However, they do not say when or where the study was conducted or who conducted the study. This usually means one of two things: 1. No study was done or 2. It was an “in-house” study (conducted by GNC itself) so they could tweak the results to make them seem better.

We give little or no weight to companies who do not give enough information about their research.

GNC X-12 Guarantee

GNC does offer a guarantee for GNC X-12 diet pills. You must take GNC X-12 for at least 10 days. If you still are not satisfied, you can return the unused portion to the store (with the proof of purchase) for full refund. There is no mention of how long you have to return the product. We do like that you can get a full refund and that you can return it to the store for an immediate, in person refund.

GNC X-12 Cost

GNC X-12 diet pills cost $24.99 for 45 capsules. If you take the recommended dose of one capsule per day, one bottle will last about a month and a half. This is quite inexpensive for a diet pill. However, since there is only one proven ingredient in GNC X-12 and it the amount of it is hidden, there is no reason to believe GNC X-12 will actually cause weight loss. Thus, any amount is too much to pay for GNC X-12.

GNC X-12 Conclusion

This GNC X-12 review finds GNC X-12 is nothing special. They hide how much of the ONE proven ingredient is included. Their research is suspect. Don’t waste your money on this product. Instead, look through our recommended products; they include proven ingredients in the necessary amounts to cause weight loss.

• “BURNS FAT
• CARB ABSORPTION
• SUPPRESSES APPETITE
• INHIBIT FAT/CARBS
• INCREASE ENERGY” (website).

This Thermoloid review will challenge the claims of Thermoloid and reveal the distasteful marketing practices of Thermoloid to show you what you can really expect from this product.

Thermoloid Ingredients

Chromium (180 mg) has shown differing results in clinical trials. Until more conclusive research is done, we cannot recommend chromium as a diet pill ingredient.

Proprietary Thermogenic Blend (990 mg)

Green tea has been shown to contribute to weight loss. However, Thermoloid fails to disclose how much green tea it contains so there is no way of knowing if the green tea in Thermoloid diet pills will be effective.

Caffeine anhydrous is no different from regular caffeine. It does contribute to weight loss when included in the correct amount. Since Thermoloid includes caffeine anhydrous in a proprietary blend, this Thermoloid review cannot determine if there is enough caffeine anhydrous to contribute to weight loss.

Yerba mate has been shown to contribute to weight loss only when combined with both Damiana and Guarana. Thermoloid does contain Guarana, but it does not contain Damiana.

Guarana has been shown to contribute to weight loss only when combined with both Damiana and Yerba Mate. Thermoloid does contain Yerba Mate, but it does not contain Damiana.

Theobromine is used as a diuretic; it does not cause weight loss.

Citrus Aurantium contains Synephrine, a clinically proven diet pill ingredient. The important aspect of Synephrine is the concentration–the higher the concentration the more effective the Synephrine is at contributing to weight loss. Unfortunately, Thermoloid fails to list the concentration of the Synephrine it contains.

White willow is an anti-inflammatory; there is no evidence that it contributes to weight loss.

L-Carnitine supposedly breaks down fats; however, there is no evidence to prove this.

Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) helps the body produce energy. Your body produces plenty of ALA on its own; you do not need to supplement with it.

Gugglesterones supposedly increase thyroid function. However, studies have shown conflicting results.

Bioperine helps the body absorb nutrients; it does not directly cause weight loss.

Fat/Carb Blocking and Appetite Suppressant Blend 432 mg

Chitosan has been proven to contribute to weight loss, but it has to be taken in doses of 3 grams per day. Thus, this Thermoloid review finds it is impossible for Thermoloid to contain enough Chitosan to be effective.

Hoodia gordonii does nothing for weight loss.

CLA contributes to weight loss. However, Thermoloid does not say how much CLA it contains.

Cha de bugre is supposed to be a miracle cure for everything from curing herpes to healing wounds. Research has NOT shown cha de bugre contributes to weight loss.

Evodia has been shown to cause weight loss in mice. More human research is needed.

You will notice Thermoloid diet pills do contain several proven ingredients. However, since Thermoloid does not say how much of each ingredient is included, this Thermoloid review cannot recommend Thermoloid.

Thermoloid Price

Thermoloid diet pills cost $29.95 for 60 capsules. If you take the recommended 6-10 capsules per day, one bottle will last 6-10 days. This is EXTREMELY expensive for a diet pill. There is no evidence that Thermoloid will actually cause weight loss.

Thermoloid Guarantee

The Thermoloid website says nothing about a guarantee, which means there probably isn’t one. If you buy Thermoloid from another website, there might be a guarantee through that specific website. If you choose to buy Thermoloid, be sure you know what the return policy is; you will probably need it.

Thermoloid’s Racy Marketing

Thermoloid is made by Goliath Labs. They use nearly pornographic images to try to sell Thermoloid. If they had any confidence in Thermoloid, they wouldn’t have to use such demeaning marketing tactics. If you choose to buy or even research Thermoloid diet pills, make sure your children aren’t in the room.

Thermoloid Conclusion

Thermoloid diet pills contain some impressive proven ingredients. Unfortunately, they hide how much of each ingredient is included. If these ingredients were included in appropriate amounts, Thermoloid would be a great diet pill. However, since there is no way of knowing how much of each ingredient is included, this Thermoloid review cannot recommend Thermoloid.

Hydroxycitric Acid Update

On May 1, 2009 the FDA issued a warning to consumers to stop taking Hydroxycut-branded products. Over more than 7 years they have received 23 reports of health related issues with those taking Hydroxycut-branded products. The main health concern appears to be serious liver-related problems. Iovate Health Sciences Inc., the makers of Hydroxcut, have voluntarily recalled all of the products under question in the FDA’s report

Common symptoms of liver complications include:

• jaundice (yellowing of the skin)
• brown urine
• light colored stools
• unusual tiredness
• stomach pain
• itching
• loss of appetite
• weakness
• vomiting

In light of the recent FDA warning concerning the possible dangers of Hydroxycut-branded diet pills, many believe that the associated health risks are likely due to the inclusion of the commonly used ingredient Hydroxycitric Acid, or HCA. And while according to the FDA, “The agency has not yet determined which ingredients, dosages, or other health-related factors may be associated with risks related to these Hydroxycut products. The products contain a variety of ingredients and herbal extracts.” you can never be too cautious.

So, while further study and research is needed to confirm the link between HCA and the liver problems, until proven otherwise any products that contain HCA are no longer recommended on this website.

Avesil Ingredients

Calcium (150 mg) is healthy, but it does not cause weight loss.

Chromium (133 mcg) has shown varying results in clinical studies.

Potassium (210 mg) does not cause weight loss.

Garcinia Cambogia (1500 mg) has been proven to contribute to weight loss.

Green Tea (150 mg) has been shown to cause weight loss when used in doses of 300 mg or more per day. This Avesil review finds if you take the recommended dosage of Avesil diet pills, you will get enough green tea to contribute to weight loss.

Caffeine anhydrous (50 mg) does cause weight loss by increasing metabolic rate. However, this relatively low amount of caffeine will not do much.

I must give a hand to Avesil on one point. They’ve fully disclosed the amounts of each ingredient in the pill which is something that’s not seen very often in this industry. If more companies did this, the industry as a whole would be much better off.

Avesil Price

Avesil diet pills cost $89.95 for 180 capsules (a one month supply). Although Avesil does contain a few proven ingredients in appropriate amounts, $89.95 is an outrageous price. You can find multiple diet pills that are just as effective (or more effective) at causing weight loss for a much lower price. Look through our recommended products for one.

Avesil Side Effects

Side effects of Avesil include headaches and increased heart rate.

Avesil Guarantee

The Avesil website says they have a “no-questions-asked 100% money-back guarantee.” The website gives no other information on their guarantee other than that you have to have a Return Merchandise Authorization in order to return Avesil. They do not specify how long you have to return the product.

Avesil Free Trial

Avesil has a “risk-free” 14 day trial. It is typical of free trials offered by multiple diet pills. You have to read the fine print or you will be in for a shock. If you don’t cancel the free trial within the 14 days window, you will be charged $89.95and enrolled in autoship (they automatically ship you more product every month and charge your credit card).

Avesil Conclusion

This Avesil review finds Avesil diet pills do contain a few proven ingredients in proven amounts. It will cause weight loss. However, Avesil is way too expensive. You can get the same (or better) weight loss results for much less with several other diet pills.
