Xylacor Ingredients

Chromium 200 mcg
Ma Huang (167 mg) is ephedra. Although ephedra has been shown to contribute to weight loss, it has been known to cause very serious side effects including death. Because of the dangerous nature of ephedra, it has been banned by the FDA.
Proprietary Herbal Blend (325 mg)
Guarana seed extract has been proven to contribute to weight loss, but only when combined with Damiana and Yerba Mate. Xylacor does not contain Damiana or Yerba Mate. Thus, this Xylacor review finds the Guarana in Xylacor is not effective in causing weight loss.
White willow bark is an anti-inflammatory. It does not directly contribute to weight loss.
Siberian Ginseng root has not been proven to contribute to weight loss.
Astragulus root does not cause weight loss.
Bee pollen does not cause weight loss.
Bladderwrack kelp (Fucus Vesiculosus) is often used as a laxative; it does not directly contribute to weight loss.
Ginger root has healthy benefits, but it does not contribute to weight loss.
Gotu cola leaf does nothing for weight loss.
Licorice root has not been shown to cause weight loss.
Rehmannia root does nothing for weight loss.
Reishi mushroom does nothing for weight loss.
You will note Xylacor diet pills contain only one proven ingredient (Ma Huang), and it is a dangerous ingredient. Therefore, we cannot recommend Xylacor.

Xylacor Cost

Xylacor costs $49.95 for 60 capsules (a one month supply). There is a discount for buying in bulk. This is quite expensive for a diet pill. Although ephedra is an effective diet pill ingredient, given its dangerous possible side effects, any amount is too much to pay for Xylacor diet pills.

Xylacor Website

The Xylacor website is very basic and does not provide information on the company behind Xylacor. Additionally, they fail to list any information about a guarantee for Xylacor diet pills. Usually this means there is no guarantee.
Like many other diet pill websites, the Xylacor site has several testimonials touting the effectiveness of Xylacor. With the inclusion of Ma Huang, we do not doubt Xylacor will cause weight loss, but the Xylacor website fails to say anything about the risks associated with Ma Huang.

Xylacor Conclusion

This Xylacor review finds Xylacor is a rare diet pill that can actually back up its weight loss claims. Unfortunately, the only effective ingredient in Xylacor is Ma Huang, or ephedra. Ephedra can cause seizures, death, or other serious medical problems. Therefore, we cannot recommend using Xylacor. If you want a diet pill that will effectively cause weight loss without the safety concerns associated with Xylacor diet pills, look through our recommended products.

Thermo Phen Phen Gold Ingredients

Proprietary Herbal Blend 2284 mg

MaHuang Extract (standardized for 20 mg Ephedrine)contains ephedra. Ephedra does contribute to weight loss, but it has been banned by the FDA due to its very serious side effects.

Guarana Seed Extract has been shown to contribute to weight loss but only when combined with Damiana and Yerba Mate. Thermo Phen Phen Gold does not contain Damiana or Yerba Mate. Thus, this Thermo Phen Phen Gold review finds the Guarana in Thermo Phen Phen Gold is ineffective.

Green Tea Leaf Extract has been proven to contribute to weight loss when used in doses of 300 mg or more per day. Since Thermo Phen Phen Gold hides the amount in a proprietary blend, there is no way of knowing how much green tea it contains.

St. John’s Wort (0.3 % hypericin)

L-Phenylalanine is found in chocolate. It is supposed to make you feel good, but it does not cause weight loss.

White Willow Bark is an anti-inflammatory. More research is needed to determine if it contributes to weight loss.

Thermo Phen Phen Gold Cost

Thermo Phen Phen Gold diet pills cost $44.99 for 120 capsules. If you take the maximum recommended dosage of 12 per day, one bottle will last 10 days. This is an outrageous price for this product! We cannot recommend a product containing ephedra.

Thermo Phen Phen Gold Affiliate Program

Thermo Phen Phen Gold has an “Affiliate Program.” Basically you sign up to sell the product for commission. We generally find companies using affiliate programs have something to hide (like a really bad product). Don’t get suckered into it.

Thermo Phen Phen Gold Guarantee

The Thermo Phen Phen Gold website says they offer a full refund for bottles that are at least half full. They require that you use the product for at least 10 days before returning it. They do not specify if they have a restocking fee.

Thermo Phen Phen Gold Conclusion

This Thermo Phen Phen Gold review finds this product is overpriced and possibly dangerous. We cannot recommend any product containing ephedra. There are safer, effective alternatives (like Synephrine). Read through our recommended products to find a safe product that will give you great weight loss results.

Ephedra Hoodia Fusion Ingredients

The following are the ingredients found in Ephedra Hoodia Fusion diet pills. This list is NOT on the Ephedra Hoodia Fusion website. We obtained this ingredient list by calling Customer Service.

Vitamin B6 4 mg
Vitamin B12 12 mg
Chromium Picolinate 120 mcg
Ephedra 10 mg
Hoodia Gordonii 5 mg
Caffeine 250 mg
Salicylate 150 mg (willow bark)
Bitter orange 100 mg
Proprietary Blend 400 mg
Green tea
Ginger root
Bladderwrak
Citrus

Vitamins B6 and B12 contribute to a healthy diet, but they have not been shown to contribute to weight loss.

Chromium is an ingredient with controversial results from clinical studies. Some studies have found chromium to contribute to weight loss while other studies have found it does not.

Ephedra is a very effective weight loss ingredient. However, ephedra has been banned by the FDA because of its serious and sometimes even deadly side effects. We cannot recommend any diet pill containing ephedra. Make certain you understand all the possible risks and side effects of ephedra before choosing a product containing ephedra.

Hoodia gordonii is a very overrated diet pill ingredient. There is NO scientific proof that hoodia actually contributes to weight loss.

Caffeine has been proven to contribute to weight loss, but only when used in a dose of 300 mg or more per day. Thus, this Ephedra Hoodia Fusion review finds the amount of caffeine in Ephedra Hoodia Fusion diet pills is not enough to cause weight loss.

Green tea is a proven diet pill ingredient. Unfortunately, Ephedra Hoodia Fusion includes green tea in a proprietary blend, making it impossible to know if there is enough green tea to be effective.

Ephedra Hoodia Fusion Free Sample

Ephedra Hoodia Fusion offers a free sample if you pay $4.97 for the shipping. By signing up for the free sample, you also become enrolled in autoship (they automatically ship the product every month and charge your credit card $69.45). You can cancel within 14 days to avoid being charged.

The details of the free sample are hidden in the small print. Customers could easily be mislead by the wording on the main page and be surprised when they are charged for Ephedra Hoodia Fusion diet pills.

Ephedra Hoodia Fusion Customer Service

The Ephedra Hoodia Fusion website lists a Delaware mailing address to contact the company. Interestingly, their customer service number has Pacific Standard Time hours. When you call the customer service number, the recording that picks up is a woman with an English accent.

The customer service agent I spoke with had little or no knowledge about Ephedra Hoodia Fusion. When I asked him what the ingredients were, he put me on hold for several minutes. When he came back on the line, he tried to read the list of ingredients but could not pronounce them. Although I have written nearly 200 diet pill reviews, I could not figure out what the ingredients were he was trying to say. I had to have him spell nearly every ingredient.

I asked if there was a non autoship option. He told me there is a non autoship option (although it is not listed on the website), and he even offered it to me for half price. I guess this means if you are considering Ephedra Hoodia Fusion diet pills, call customer service to get it for half price.

Ephedra Hoodia Fusion Conclusion

This Ephedra Hoodia Fusion review finds this is a product that definitely should not be taken without serious consideration. The side effects of ephedra can be extremely serious and possibly deadly. The amounts of the other proven ingredients are not enough to cause weight loss. The deceptive and uninformed nature of the Ephedra Hoodia Fusion website and customer service are enough to keep us from recommending this product. Look for an alternative diet pill, perhaps one containing synephrine.

What are the ingredients contained in Stimerex-ES?

Proprietary Blend: with Thermo-RX 510mg and Extend-RX Technology

• 25mg Ephedra Extract(leaves)
• Acacia Rigidula 70% (leaves)
• Theobroma
• Cocoa Extract
• Phenylethylamine HCL
• Citrus Aurantium Extract (25mg Synephrine)
• Green Tea Extract (leaves)

Other Ingredients: Microcystalline Cellulose, Dextrose, Sodium Starch Glucolate, Magnesium Stearate, Stearic Acid Silica, FD&C Blue #1, FD&C Red #40

Ephedra is a stimulant which has been proven to increase metabolism, thus leading to weight loss. However, due to the serious side effects of ephedra, it has been banned by the FDA. However, it is still available on the internet. Side effects from ephedra include irritability, dizziness, headache, insomnia, perspiration, irregular heartbeat, seizures, heart attack, stroke, or death. This Stimerex-ES review finds you should educate yourself on the effects of ephedra if you are considering taking it.

Citrus Aurantium contains synephrine. One study performed in December of 2007 looked at the lipolysis (fat loss) effects of Satsuma mandarin orange (Citrus unshu Mark) peel on the fat cells of rats (I know, it’s always rats). A high concentration of Synephrine was present in the peel and lipoloysis effects were present.

The overall conclusion

These results suggest that the segment wall, an edible fraction, from Satsuma mandarin orange might be useful as a functional food, especially as a fat-reducing material ((J Nutr Sci Vitaminol (Tokyo). 2008 Dec;53(6):547-51.))

Acacia Rigidula is included in many diet pills. However, there is no scientific evidence showing it contributes to weight loss.

Phenethylamine is an alkaloid that functions as a neurotransmitter in the brain. Some people call Phenetyhlamine “The Love Drug” because it is included in chocolate but the question arises as to the validity of that claim because Pheneythlamine is metabolized so quickly, it’s doubtful that any significant amount would reach the brain quickly enough to cause an effect. More human research is needed on phenethylamine.

Green tea is an ingredient which has been proven to contribute to weight loss.

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 has been shown to contribute to increased metabolic function and we readily support it as long as you pay attention to your own body’s reaction to it. There are a minority of people that react too much toward caffeine and are asking for sleepless nights if they ingest too much of it. Note: Don’t be impressed; Caffeine anhydrous is simply dehydrated caffeine.

How much does Stimerex-ES cost?

If you purchase Stimerex-ES diet pills on the manufacturer’s website (Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals) you will pay $69.95 for 90 capsules. You can find it online for $39.95. If you take the recommended dosage of three capsules per day, one bottle will last one month. At $1.33 per day, Stimerex-ES isn’t especially expensive, but because of the “Proprietary Blend”, there is no way to know if this product really is effective.

Is there a guarantee with Stimerex Thermo Rx?

The Hi-Tech Pharmaceuticals website (Stimerex Thermo Rx manufacturer) explains that they give refunds only if the product is unopened and is returned within 30 days. Shipping fees are not refunded. In other words, if you buy one bottle, try it, and it makes you sick or something, you don’t get a refund. The only way you could get a refund is if you bought multiple bottles, opened one, but sent the other back. This is the classic no-guarantee guarantee.

Stimerex-ES Conclusion

This Stimerex-ES review finds we cannot recommend this product for the following reasons: 1) Stimerex-ES diet pills contain ephedra, which has been banned by the FDA. It has been classified as a dangerous ingredient. 2) Stimerex-ES does contain some proven ingredients, but they fail to tell how much of each ingredient is included. We recommend looking for a diet pill which contains safe, proven ingredients in clinically proven amounts.
