Lipodrene Ingredients

Lipodrene contains the following ingredients in a proprietary blend (they do not disclose how much of
each ingredient is included):

Sida Cordifolia Extract (leaves) (supplying 25mg)
Citrus Aurantium 10% (fruit)
U.S.P. Caffeine 100mg
5-Hydroxytrptophan
5-Methoxytryptamine
Green Tea Extract (leaves)
Cassia Nomame (whole plant)
Hoodia 12:1 Extract (Cactus)
Yohimbe 8% Extact (bark)
Naringen (fruit).

Sida Cordifolia has been used for centuries to treat various health issues including asthma, flu,
and cough. However, the stem of the Sida Cordifolia plant contains high levels of Ephedrine, which has been banned in the U.S. Although the Lipodrene website does not list Ephedrine as an ingredient, it is very possible that Ephedrine is included as part of the Sida Cordifolia Extract. There is no clinical
evidence to show the effectiveness of Sida Cordifolia in weight loss.

Citrus Aurantium contains synephrine, which has been shown to contribute to weight loss. However,
Lipodrene fails to disclose the amount of citrus aurantium contained in their formula, so there is no way for this Lipodrene review to determine the effectiveness of citrus aurantium in Lipodrene diet pills.

Caffeine is a great ingredient in contributing to weight loss. However, you should be aware of your
personal reactions to caffeine before taking Lipodrene or any product containing caffeine. Unfortunately, once again Lipodrene fails to tell you how much caffeine it contains so you won’t know whether it will be effective or not.

5-Hydroxytrptophan (also known as 5-HTP)is an amino acid included in diet pills for its mood enhancing effects. While studies have shown 5-HTP does enhance mood, studies have not shown what the side effects of 5-HTP are.

Green tea has been proven to contribute to weight loss by increasing metabolic rate. However, Lipodrene fails to list how much green tea is contained in their “proprietary blend”.

Cassia Nomame is supposed to be a lipase inhibitor. Unfortunately, the only studies showing weight loss due to Cassia Nomame tested rats; studies have not been done on humans.

Hoodia is simply an overhyped waste of money. There is NO clinical evidence to prove that Hoodia actually contributes to weight loss. Don’t be fooled by outrageous claims–Hoodia is not worth your money.

Yohimbe, in addition to contributing to fatty acid mobilization, is also used to treat erectile dysfunction.

The Lipodrene diet pills sold on the Lipodrene website do not list ephedrine as an ingredient. However,
many websites are selling the older version of Lipodrene diet pills, which do list ephedrine as an ingredient.

Lipodrene Marketing

Lipodrene makes several interesting claims which they fail to back up. The Lipodrene website talks
about clinical studies done on Lipodrene. However, they do not mention who performed these studies,
when they were performed, or where/if the results are published anywhere.

Lipodrene offers a “Risk free trial”. They claim, “We are the Only Company Online that Offers this (RISK FREE TRIAL)” (website). The truth is there are several diet pill companies that offer almost exactly the same trial offer.

The Lipodrene trial offer says, “Simply try our product for at least 30 days. If you are not completely
satisfied – for any reason – return the product to us within 90 days for a complete refund less
shipping/handling fees” (website).

We do like that Lipodrene gives 90 days for customers to return products. We also like that Lipodrene
allows customers to return open bottles.

Lipodrene Cost

Lipodrene diet pills cost $39.95 for 100 tablets. If you take the recommended 2 tablets per day,
one bottle will last 50 days. This is quite inexpensive for a diet pill. However, since Lipodrene
does not disclose how much of each ingredient is included in their formula, it is impossible to determine how effective Lipodrene will be. Thus, any amount is too expensive for Lipodrene.

Lipodrene Conclusion

This Lipodrene review finds that Lipodrene diet pills are not worth the money. While they do contain
several proven diet pill ingredients, Lipodrene fails to disclose how much of each ingredient they
include in their blend. We recommend you look for a diet pill that includes proven ingredients in
proven amounts.

Xenistat Ingredients

Xenistat contains a proprietary blend of the following ingredients:

Lipstatin, Green Tea Extract 45% ECGC, Cassia Nomame Extract (25% Lipase Inhibitors), White Kidney Bean Extract

Lipstatin is supposed to keep fat molecules from being absorbed.

Green tea has been well proven to contribute to weight loss by increasing metabolic rate. However, Xenistat fails to disclose how much green tea it actually contains.

Cassia Extract is thought to be a lipase inhibitor. Some studies in rats have shown fat loss, but no studies have been performed on humans.

White kidney bean extract has been shown to decrease starch absorption. One study found that participants who took 1500 mg of white kidney bean extract daily averaged 3.79 pounds of weight loss after eight weeks, while their placebo taking counterparts averaged 1.65 pounds of weight loss. http://www.phase2info.com/pdf/white_bean_extract.pdf  Unfortunately, Xenistat includes white kidney bean extract in their proprietary blend (they don’t want you to know how little of it is included). This makes it impossible for this Xenistat review to determine whether the amount of white kidney bean extract in Xenistat diet pills will be effective.

The proprietary blend is only 525 mg per serving; it is very unlikely that the amount of any individual ingredient is enough to provide effective results (the proven effective amount of green tea is 300 mg). Companies include ingredients in proprietary blends to keep you from knowing how little of the proven ingredients they actually include.

Xenistat Guarantee

The Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals website (Xenistat manufacturer) explains that they give refunds only if the product is unopened and is returned within 30 days. Shipping fees are not refunded. So… basically if you try the product and it makes you vomit, gives you uncontrollable gas, or just plain doesn’t work, you can’t get a refund.

Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals–the company behind Xenistat

Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals also sells Stimerex, Stimerex-ES, Lipodrene, Lipodrene Xtreme, Anavar, Dianabol, Stamina-RX, and Fastin. These are all mediocre products. If they had a stellar, effective product they would not have to make so many different products.

The Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals website is pathetic to say the least. It is very amateurish and makes us question the company. They tout that they are endorsed by the American Weight Loss Clinic, which no longer exists.

Xenistat Cost

Xenistat diet pills cost $39.95 for 120 tablets. If you take the maximum recommended dosage of 3 tablets per day, one bottle will last you 20 days. This is too expensive for this product; there is no evidence that Xenistat actually works.

Xenistat Conclusion

This Xenistat review finds Xenistat diet pills are not worth your time or money. You will only be disappointed by using this product. Save yourself some grief and look for a diet pill with proven ingredients in proven amounts; our list of recommended products is a great place to start!
