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.

Celebrities aside, what does MetaboSpeed have to offer? This MetaboSpeed review will help you find out.

Ingredients

Calcium 35 mg
Phosphorus 25 mg
Guarana Extract 800 mg – Has been shown to be an effective appetite suppressant when combined with yerba mate and damiana. Since MetaboSpeed doesn’t include yerba mate and damiana, it’s difficult to say how effective it will be at helping you to eat less.
Bitter Orange Extract 200 mg – Contains synephrine which is a stimulant that has been shown to be effective in weight loss. We know that there is 200 mg of bitter orange, but that doesn’t tell us how much synephrine is in there. Bottom line: it may or may not be an effective amount.

Proprietary Blend: 160 mg

Cellulose
Green Tea – An effective fat burner that also has many other health benefits.
Korean Ginseng – Some research suggests that it may aid in weight loss, but as of yet, it’s not looking too promising.
Garcinia Cambogia – Garcinia cambogia’s main component is hydroxycitric acid (HCA). HCA may be the reason why the FDA issued warnings against Hydroxycut branded products for the potential health dangers relating to the liver. See the Hydroxycut review for more information.
Bee Pollen
White Willow Bark
Vanadium

The amount of the proprietary blend (160 mg) is much too small for the ingredients in the blend to be of much use. Green tea is effective, but not at the levels I’m assuming is in the proprietary blend. The bitter orange may be effective depending on how much synephrine is in there and I’d like to see more research on guarana by itself before I suggest that it will be effective on its own.

In addition, MetaboSpeed includes HCA which is possibly under scrutiny by the FDA.

MetaboSpeed’s Marketing

It’s fairly obvious that MetaboSpeed is relying heavily on the celebrity image to market to their product. I see this as a flawed tactic. Unfortunately, it may work. But why does the fact that a celebrity tried a product all of a sudden make it more effective or legitimate?

On top of that, I’m not totally convinced (even by the ‘magazine articles’) that the celebrities pictured used the product in the first place.

I liked their small disclaimer:

“*These celebrities have been associated with products we sell, or specific ingredients contained within our products. This does not imply that they either endorse or promote any of these products unless otherwise specified.”

Also, I wasn’t too impressed with the MetaboSpeed website in general. They provide almost no information about the actual product itself – I had to go to Lab 88’s website just to get the ingredient list.

MetaboSpeed’s Price

For a one month supply of MetaboSpeed you’ll pay $39.99 (plus $9.95 shipping and handling). While this isn’t a bad price for an effective diet pill, MetaboSpeed isn’t that effective diet pill. The amounts of the ingredients are simply too low to be effective.

MetaboSpeed’s Guarantee

I was glad to see that they at least offer a 30 day guarantee….until I started reading about it. But I’ll simply quote some of it so you can see for yourself:

This guarantee policy allows you to get your initial payment back via a 100% credit for your purchase (excluding shipping and handling) towards the purchase of other nutraceutical dietary supplement products.

So the ‘guarantee’ is only for credit to buy other products made by their company.

Also, here’s the loops you have jump through just to get that:

1. Make a written request via email for your credit within 30 days from the date of your order.
2. Obtain a return authorization code and ship back within 30 days from the date of your order all bottles and products shipped to you in sale-able and sealed unopened condition within its original packaging.
3. You must purchase a multi-bottle offer(s) with a minimum purchase price of $74.88 + shipping/handling to be eligible for this offer. Single bottle orders are excluded.
4. Include your order number, full name and contact information including phone number.
5. You must be a first time customer of any of our sites and you must have purchased our product(s) directly via metabospeed.com.

And it only gets worse:

A restocking fee will be the difference between the price of a item that is under the recurrent billing plan and a price of a single bottle order. The restocking fee shall be applied for any returned products with the above guidelines, and deducted from the credit provided. The restocking fee shall also be applied if the recurrent plan is cancelled before the second order was been shipped out.

As per United State Federal Law, we cannot refund or exchange any open bottles or packages.

A horrible restocking fee policy. Also, just fyi, there are plenty of companies that offer refunds on opened bottles so the “per United States Law” bit is rediculous.

Conclusion

MetaboSpeed contains a few good ingredients, but the amounts of those ingredients are likely to be much too small to be effective. I’m not a huge fan of how they’re marketing the product, but that’s just me. The price is decent, but the guarantee is as close to ‘not a guarantee’ as you can get. I suggest looking elsewhere.

Weightloss 16 is a diet pill that claims to cause:
“-Unbelievable energy
- Proven appetite suppression
-Noticeable, weight loss and size loss or your money back.
- Improved mental clarity and concentration during that ‘after lunchtime’ crash” (website).
This Weightloss 16 review will explore the ingredients contained in Weightloss 16 diet pills and help you realize what you can (or cannot) expect from this product.

Weightloss 16 Ingredients

Chromium Polynicotinate has shown varying results in clinical trials.

Vitamin B12 is important to good health, but it does not cause weight loss.

Caffeine increases metabolic rate, leading to weight loss. However, Weightloss 16 fails to disclose how much caffeine it contains. Therefore, it is impossible to know if Weightloss 16 contains enough caffeine to cause weight loss.

Xanthinol Nicotinate has not been shown to cause weight loss.

Inositol Hexaniacinate helps transport fats from the liver; it has not been proven to directly contribute to weight loss. Inositol is used to treat Panic Disorder, ADD, and Depression.

Green tea causes weight loss when used in doses of 300 mg or more per day. Again, Weightloss 16 does not say how much green tea is contained in each serving.

Bitter orange (citrus aurantium) is an excellent diet pill ingredient. The important thing to note with citrus aurantium is the concentration it contains–the higher the concentration the better. There is no indication of the concentration of citrus aurantium in Weightloss 16.

Brown seaweed extract is an antioxidant, but it has not been proven to cause weight loss.

Enzyme blend containing:

Acid Protease

Amylase

Cellulose

Glucoamylase

Lactase

Lipase

Bromelain is an anti-inflammatory; it does not cause weight loss.

Lactobacillus Acidophilus

Weightloss 16 Cost

Weightloss 16 diet pills cost $15.95 per month. This is quite inexpensive as diet pills go. However, since Weightloss 16 contains only a few proven ingredients, and since the amounts of these ingredients is undisclosed, there is no way of knowing if Weightloss 16 will help you lose weight. Therefore, this Weightloss 16 review finds that any amount is too much to pay for Weightloss 16 diet pills.

Weightloss 16 Guarantee

Weightloss 16 claims to have a “100% NO QUESTIONS ASKED LIFETIME Money-Back Guarantee” (website). Unfortunately, there are no details given about the guarantee. This is quite common with diet pills. It usually means there is a lot of fine print they don’t want customers to know about.

Weightloss 16 Website

Weightloss 16 has a very unprofessional website. There was obviously very little time or money put into this site. In addition, the website is vague about the ingredients, dosage directions, and possible side effects associated with Weightloss 16.

There are several testimonials on the Weightloss 16 website. The before and after photos are low quality, and it is hard to tell if it is the same person in both photos.

Weightloss 16 Conclusion

This Weightloss 16 review finds that Weightloss 16 is not worth your time or money. There is no evidence to show Weightloss 16 actually contributes to weight loss. Do yourself a favor and use one of our recommended products; they contain proven ingredients in the necessary amounts.

LipoFlush diet pills supposedly “dramatically decrease body fat, increase energy levels, preserve skeletal muscle, and provide major health benefits” (website). This LipoFlush review will dissect the exhausting ingredient list and reveal the truth about the research done on LipoFlush to show you that LipoFlush is not the product you are looking for.

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.

LipoFlush Ingredients

Vitamin D3 (100 IU) does nothing for weight loss.

Vitamin B5 (10 mg) does nothing for weight loss.

Vitamin B6 (25 mg) does nothing for weight loss.

Vitamin B12 (1000 mcg) does nothing for weight loss.

Folic Acid (1000 mcg) does nothing for weight loss.

Biotin (100 mcg) does nothing for weight loss.

Potassium (99 mg) does nothing for weight loss.

Calcium (415 mg) does nothing for weight loss.

Magnesium (200 mg) does nothing for weight loss.

Zinc (10 mg) does nothing for weight loss.

Chromium (50 mcg) has shown varying results in clinical studies.

Choline (650 mg) supposedly reduces body fat, but studies do not back up this claim.

L-Carnitine (450 mg) has not been proven to contribute to weight loss.

Bioperine (4 mg) increases the body’s ability to absorb nutrients. It does not directly contribute to weight loss.

Citrus Aurantium (300 mg) contains Synephrine, which is a great, proven diet pill ingredient. The important aspect with Synephrine is the concentration–the higher the better. LipoFlush does not disclose the concentration of Synephrine it contains. Therefore, it is impossible for this LipoFlush review to determine if the Synephrine in LipoFlush diet pills is enough to contribute to weight loss.

Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) (100 mg) does contribute to weight loss, but 100 mg isn’t going to do much.

Cordyceps Sinesis (100 mg)

Garcinia Cambogia (400 mg) does contribute to weight loss.

Hawthorne Berry (100 mg) does nothing for weight loss.

Caffeine (99 mg) is a good weight loss ingredient, but there is not enough caffeine in LipoFlush diet pills to be effective.

LipoFlush Proprietary Complex 4000 mg

Acanthopanax Senticosus

Alpha Lipoic Acid(ALA)  helps produce energy. However, the human body makes plenty of ALA, so there is no need to supplement.

Banaba Leaf

Beta Sitosterol

Betaine

Capsicum

Cellulose

Cinnamon

Damiana has been shown to contribute to weight loss when combined with yerba mate and guarana. LipoFlush does contain yerba mate and guarana, but it does not list how much of each is included.

Genistein

Ginger

Grape Seed

Guarana has been shown to contribute to weight loss when combined with yerba mate and damiana. LipoFlush does contain yerba mate and damiana, but it does not list how much of each is included.

Guggul extract is supposed to increase thyroid function, leading to weight loss. However, research does not support these claims.

Glycine

Hoodia does absolutely nothing for weight loss.

Inositol transports fat from the liver. Again, LipoFlush hides how much Inositol it contains.

Kelp

Kola Nut

Lecithin

L-Histidine

L-Tyrosine is effective when included in doses of 500 to 1500 mg per day. It is unlikely that LipoFlush contains enough L-Tyrosine to be effective.

Green Tea is a very effective ingredient, but LipoFlush does not list how much green tea it contains.

Magnesium

Mucuna Puriens

Panax Ginseng

Phosphatidylserine

Quercetine dihydrate

Siler extract

Theobroma Cocoa Complex

White Willow Bark is an anti-inflammatory. It does not cause weight loss.

Yerba Mate has been shown to contribute to weight loss when combined with guarana and damiana. LipoFlush does contain guarana and damiana, but it does not list how much of each is included.

LipoFlush Cost

LipoFlush costs $69.95 for 120 capsules. If you take the recommended 8 capsules per day, one bottle will last 15 days. This is an outrageous price for a diet pill! You can find a more effective diet pill at much less cost. Check out our recommended products.

LipoFlush Research

The LipoFlush website claims there has been research done specifically on LipoFlush. The supposed research was done in-house (which usually means they have altered the results to make them more favorable). Also, there is no formal write-up on the research results; they have not been published anywhere. This makes us very skeptical of the LipoFlush research.

LipoFlush Conclusion

This LipoFlush review finds LipoFlush is really no different from dozens of other diet pills. They do include a few proven ingredients, but in most cases they fail to list how much of each ingredient is included. They try to impress consumers with a very lengthy list of ingredients. The price of LipoFlush is ridiculous. Don’t bother with this product. Instead, go with one of our recommended products; they contain the necessary amount of proven ingredients and they won’t break your bank.
