		<description><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.criticalorie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/lipovoxhd.jpg" alt="lipovoxhd" title="lipovoxhd" width="77" height="150" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1410" />The makers of the original Lipovox have upped the ante by packing in even more ingredients and creating an even better diet pill: Lipovox Hardcore Detox.  Where Lipovox claims to &#8220;burn up to 400% more fat than with just diet and exercise alone&#8221;, Lipovox Hardcore Detox now claims to burn up to 900% more.  But just how different is new Lipovox Hardcore Detox formula?  Very different!</p>
<h2>Lipovox Hardcore Detox Ingredients</h2>
<p>Lipovox Hardcore Detox doesn&#8217;t just have a long name, it also has a long list of ingredients.  They&#8217;ve broken them down into a few different sections:</p>
<p><strong>Patented Ingredient Blend  (655mg)</strong><br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/tonalin-review/">Tonalin Cla</a><br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/super-citrimax-review/">Super CitriMax</a><br />
Pinnothin<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/advantra-z-review/">Advantra-Z</a><br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/neopuntia-review/">NeOpuntia</a><br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/phase-2-review/">Phase-2</a><br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/7-keto-review/">7-Keto DHEA</a><br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/forslean-review/">Forslean</a><br />
FucoPure</p>
<p><strong>SuperFood Blend (400mg)</strong><br />
Acai<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/cayenne-review/">Cayenne</a><br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/wheatgrass-review/">Wheatgrass</a><br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/garlic-review/">Garlic</a><br />
Lactbacillus Acidophilus<br />
Soybean Extract<br />
LinumLife Flaxseed Lignans<br />
Alfalfa<br />
Buckwheat</p>
<p><strong>Instant Detox Blend (710mg)</strong><br />
Dandelion Root<br />
Uva Ursi<br />
Buchu<br />
Celery Seed<br />
Psyllium Husk<br />
Lemon Balm<br />
Couchgrass<br />
Milk Thistle<br />
Parsley<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/ginger-review-is-ginger-effective-in-diet-pills/">Ginger</a></p>
<p><strong>Antioxidant Blend (400mg)</strong><br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/green-tea-review/">Green Tea</a> (50% caffeine)<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/caffeine-anhydrous-review/">Caffeine Anhydrous</a><br />
DMAE<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/alpha-lipoic-acid-review/">Alpha Lipoic Acid</a></p>
<p>The short of it is that you&#8217;re getting a lot of high quality weight loss ingredients here.  They&#8217;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.</p>
<p>You can click on the ingredients above to read the full reviews of the ingredients.</p>
<p>With so many ingredients packed in, it&#8217;s no wonder they had to go from 60 capsules to 180!</p>
<p><strong>***Note***</strong></p>
<p>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.”</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>For more information on the FDA’s warning against Hydroxycut and possible dangers to the liver due to HCA, see the <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/hydroxycut-review/">Hydroxycut Review</a>.</p>
<h2>Great Money Back Guarantee</h2>
<p>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.  </p>
<h2>Not a Big Fan of the Marketing</h2>
<p>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.</p>
<h2>Price</h2>
<p>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.</p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>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&#8217;m not able to recommend the diet pill.  The price is good and the guarantee is stellar.  If it weren&#8217;t for the HCA, I&#8217;d give Lipovox a green light.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/lipotrox.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-786" title="lipotrox" src="http://www.criticalorie.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/lipotrox.jpg" alt="" width="90" height="150" /></a>Lipotrox is a diet pill of &#8220;pharmaceutical quality&#8221; (website). It supposedly causes the following:</p>
<p>&#8220;Appetite suppressant</p>
<p>Weight loss</p>
<p>Anti aging</p>
<p>Acne&#8221; (website).</p>
<p>This Lipotrox review shows that the claims made about Lipotrox are too good to be true; Lipotrox does not live up to its claims. It contains ineffective ingredients and the Lipotrox customer service is pitiful.</p>
<h3>Lipotrox Ingredients</h3>
<p>Proprietary Blend (735 mg)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/green-tea-review/" >Green tea</a> does contribute to weight loss. However, Lipotrox fails to disclose how much green tea it contains. Therefore, it is impossible for this Lipotrox review to determine if there is enough green tea to cause weight loss.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2007/hoodia-gordonii/" >Hoodia</a> is a gimmicky ingredient. It is endorsed by celebrities, but there is NO scientific evidence that hoodia does anything for weight loss.</p>
<p>Acai Extract is another ingredient that is all hype. Acai does NOT contribute to weight loss.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/alpha-lipoic-acid-review/" >Alpha Lipoic Acid </a>(ALA) produces energy. However, your body makes plenty of ALA on its own; you don&#8217;t need to supplement with it.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/garlic-review/" >Garlic</a> Extract is used to treat a variety of maladies, but it does not cause weight loss.</p>
<p>Barley Powder and Buckwheat both have healthy benefits, but they do not cause weight loss.</p>
<p>DMAE is supposed to enhance mood. Studies have shown DMAE could have dangerous effects. DMAE does not contribute to weight loss.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/flaxseed-review/" >Flaxseed powder</a></p>
<p>Lactobacillus Acid</p>
<p>Salmon Powder</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/wheatgrass-review/" >Wheat Grass</a> Extract has healthy benefits, but it does not cause weight loss.</p>
<p>Alfalfa Extract</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/cayenne-review/" >Cayenne Pepper</a> Powder may contribute to weight loss by increasing energy and lowering food intake, but more research is needed to substantiate these claims.</p>
<p>Soybean Extract</p>
<p>The Lipotrox website says Lipotrox diet pills are also available without caffeine (meaning it does not contain green tea). Well, green tea is the only proven ingredient in Lipotrox.</p>
<h3>Lipotrox Cost</h3>
<p>Lipotrox diet pills cost $19.95 for a one month supply. According to the Lipotrox website, Lipotrox normally costs $34.95 for a one month supply. Companies often do this to make you think you are getting a great deal so you are more likely to buy the product. Don&#8217;t get suckered into buying Lipotrox; there is no reason to believe Lipotrox will actually work.</p>
<h3>Lipotrox Customer Service and Guarantee</h3>
<p>There is no customer service phone number for Lipotrox. They do have a customer service email address. We emailed Lipotrox to find out about their guarantee, but we only got an auto response. They did not answer any of our questions. Thus, as the Lipotrox website says nothing about a guarantee or refund policy, we can only assume there is no guarantee with Lipotrox.</p>
<p>It is concerning that there is no good way to get a hold of Lipotrox customer service. That is enough itself to keep us from recommending Lipotrox.</p>
<h3>Lipotrox Conclusion</h3>
<p>This Lipotrox review finds Lipotrox diet pills are just another ineffective, overpriced diet pill. Don&#8217;t bother with this product; you will end up wanting your money back and you won&#8217;t be able to get it back. Do yourself a favor and go with a diet pill that includes proven ingredients in proven amounts.</p>

Ghreleptin diet pills supposedly stops cravings and &#8220;normalizes&#8221; leptin and ghrelin hormone levels. These hormones are &#8220;the single biggest factors of body fat levels&#8221; (Ghreleptin website). Ghreleptin diet pills make very lofty claims including &#8220;Lose 35 pounds, and keep it off for good!&#8221; They also claim the average person loses 12 pounds per month when taking Ghreleptin. This Ghreleptin review will test the validity of these claims and help you decide if it is worth taking.</p>
<h3>What are the ingredients in Ghreleptin diet pills?</h3>
<p>The following is the ingredient list for Ghreleptin, as listed on their website<br />
Supplement Facts<br />
Servings: 60<br />
Serving Size 2 Capsules<br />
Ingredients:<br />
Leptin Activating Blend<br />
Guarana Fruit<br />
Acai<br />
Bitter Orange<br />
Noni<br />
Mangosteen<br />
Wolfberry<br />
Pomegranate<br />
Bitter Melon<br />
Raspberry Ketones<br />
Grapeseed</p>
<p>Ghrelin Deactivating Blend<br />
Spinach Extract<br />
Broccoli Extract<br />
Garlic 100:1<br />
Celery Seed Extract<br />
Carrot extract<br />
Wheat Grass Extract<br />
Asparagus Extract<br />
Tomato Extract<br />
Shiitake Mushroom<br />
Mustard Seed Extract<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/guarana-yeba-mate-and-damiana-gyd-review/" >Guarana </a>contains caffeine, which has been proven to increase metabolism.<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/synephrine-review/" >Synephrine </a>can be found in the citrus aurantium fruit, also known as bitter orange.</p>
<p>Is Synephrine effective? 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:</p>
<p>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.<br />
Punicic acid is derived from pomegranate seed oil. It has been proven to help eliminate fat cells (see the study abstract here). <a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12396127">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12396127</a></p>
<p>Studies show <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/raspberry-ketone-review-effectiveness-of-raspberry-ketone-in-weight-loss/" >raspberry ketones</a> induced weight loss in mice with a diet containing 2% of the total diet as raspberry ketones. No studies have been done on humans. Note: in order to take in 2% of raspberry ketones as your total diet you would have to take a ton of these Ghreleptin diet pills.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/garlic-review/" >Garlic </a>does help regulate blood sugar levels, which can aid in weight loss.</p>
<p>This Ghreleptin review has found the ingredients in Ghreleptin can contribute to weight loss if they are used in the appropriate amounts. However, Ghreleptin fails to disclose how much of each ingredient is included in the diet pills. This makes it virtually impossible to know whether the amounts are sufficient to produce positive results.</p>
<h3>How much does Ghreleptin cost?</h3>
<p>One bottle of Ghreleptin (120 capsules) will cost you $29.95. If you take the recommended maximum dose of 8 per day, one bottle will last 15 days. That makes Ghreleptin $2 per day. This is very expensive, especially for a product that does not provide adequate information about ingredient amounts.</p>
<h3>Does Ghreleptin have a money back guarantee?</h3>
<p>This is a good question. Ghreleptin can be purchased only from their official website. The website is very basic and provides extremely limited information. There are break-off websites with addresses similar to Ghreleptin. These websites have the same look of the official website, but they are run by individuals. The break-off websites claim there is a money back guarantee, but the official website has no such information.</p>
<h3>What are the side effects of Ghreleptin?</h3>
<p>The side effects of Ghreleptin include increased heart rate and increased blood pressure.</p>
<h3>Ghreleptin conclusion</h3>
<p>Ghreleptin diet pills are all hype. They have a lengthy list of ingredients. Some of these ingredients actually can contribute to weight loss. However, this Ghreleptin review finds that due to the undisclosed ingredient amounts, we cannot determine how effective this product is. We recommend using a diet pill that has been proven to be effective.</p>

<p>Leptorexin&#8217;s ingredient profile contains both quality, proven ingredients as well as some that aren&#8217;t likely to do much.  Often when we see a long list of ingredients such as this our first reaction is to assume that they aren&#8217;t able to fit enough of each ingredient in the pill to be effective.  With Leptorexin, however, this may or may not be the case.  They use proprietary blends, which is a big turnoff.  But the amounts of those blends (or at least a couple of the blends) appears to possibly be sufficient to be effective.  With all proprietary blends, however, it&#8217;s extremely difficult to give a solid answer as to its probable effectiveness.</p>
<h3>Leptorexin Marketing</h3>
<p>The first that we noticed is that <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/goto.php?a=leptorexin" rel="nofollow">Leptorexin</a> looked incredibly familiar.  Well if you look at PatenTrim, you may feel the same way.  It looks like Leptorexin has copied many of the design features of PatenTrim.  I&#8217;m not sure what exactly their strategy was for such a move, but it&#8217;s possible that they are trying to borrow from some of PatenTrim&#8217;s credibility.</p>
<p>Aside from that, the website is quite open about the ingredients (although they do use proprietary blends) and has some basic details about most of them.  We like that.  They do, however, use the overly abused TV logos, trying to make you think that they&#8217;ve been featured on them.  That&#8217;s highly unlikely.</p>
<h3>The Leptorexin Guarantee</h3>
<p>They have a 100% lifetime money back guarantee.  You can only return unopened bottles, but this is still much better than almost all of the other guarantees out there.</p>
<h3>Leptorexin Cost</h3>
<p>For one bottle it&#8217;s $59.99.</p>
<h3>Leptorexin Conclusion</h3>
<p>The ingredient profile in Leptorexin contains a myriad of ingredients.  Some are good, some are mediocre.  We like their great guarantee and if the pill is effective, the price isn&#8217;t too bad.  It&#8217;s always hard to fully recommend something that uses proprietary blends, so <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/goto.php?a=leptorexin" rel="nofollow">Leptorexin </a>gets a pretty average review.  There may be better solutions out there, but it is likely to help you lose weight.</p>

<h3>7-DFBX Ingredients</h3>
<p style="30px;" align="left"><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/caffeine-anhydrous-review/" >Caffeine Anyhdrous </a>is just regular caffeine. It has been shown to contribute to weight loss.<br />
<span class="style24">Potassium Gluconate has healthy benefits but has not been shown to contribute to weight loss.</span><br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/chromium-picolinate-review/" >Chromium Polynicotinate</a> has been shown to contribute to weight loss by some studies, but not by others.<br />

<span class="style42">Apple Pectin </span><br />
<span class="style24">Fennel Seed</span><br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/glucomannan-review/" >Glucomannan</a><span class="style42"> (267 mg) </span>is a dietary fiber which is supposed to make users feel full. Studies have shown glucomannan to be effective when used at a dose of 2-4 g per day. Thus, this 7-DFBX review finds there is not enough glucomannan in 7-DFBX diet pills to be effective.<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/flaxseed-review/" ><span class='style24'>Flax seed powder </span></a><br />
<span class="style42">Dandelion Root </span><br />
<span class="style24">Uva Ursi</span> is used to treat headaches and bladder infections. There is evidence that a drug interaction is possible when Uva Ursi is combined with diuretics (like Buchu, Juniper, parsley, and mint leaf).<br />
<span class="style42">Cranberry </span><br />
<span class="style24">Buchu Leaves 4:1is a diuretic.</span><br />
<span class="style42">Alfalfa </span><br />
<span class="style24">Juniper Berries is a diuretic.</span><br />

<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/ginger-review-is-ginger-effective-in-diet-pills/" >Ginger Root</a><br />
<span class="style24">Parsley is a diuretic.</span><br />
Goldenseal<br />
<span class="style24">Mint leaf is a diuretic.</span><br />

<span class="style24">Lemon Peel </span><br />

Sage<br />

Mangosteen<br />
<span class="style24">Pomegranate </span><br />
Apple Cider Vinegar<br />
<span class="style24">Grapefruit Seed </span></p>
<p style="30px;" align="left">7-DFBX is a diuretic (it rids your body of water). So, you might see a little weight loss from using 7-DFBX diet pills, but you will probably be on the toilet a lot. Don&#8217;t count on keeping the weight off either.</p>
<h3>7-DFBX Cost</h3>
<p style="30px;" align="left">7-DFBX costs $19.99 per bottle (for a one week supply). This is very expensive, considering there is no evidence to show that 7-DFBX actually works.</p>
<h3>7-DFBX Guarantee</h3>
<p style="30px;" align="left"><span class="style44">The 7-DFBX website says, &#8220;If you are not satisfied with our product, please return the empty bottle to receive full refund less S&amp;H. If you purchased more than 1 bottle, all other bottles MUST be in unopend, unused, and resellable condition.&#8221; This seems like a pretty good guarantee, although they do not specify how much time you have to return the product for a refund.<br />
</span></p>
<h3>7-DFBX Claims</h3>
<p style="30px;" align="left">7-DFBX claims you can lose up to 21 pounds in one week by taking 7-DFBX diet pills. Anything that promises more than about a pound a day should be questioned. If you do happen to lose some weight when taking 7-DFBX, you won&#8217;t keep the weight off. 7-DFBX does warn to take a week off in between bottles.</p>
<h3>7-DFBX Conclusion</h3>
<p style="30px;" align="left">This 7-DFBX review finds this product is not worth your money. You might experience some weight loss from 7-DFBX, but only because you will be stuck on the toilet. There are more comfortable and more lasting ways to lose weight. Check out our recommended products. They contain proven ingredients in correct amounts.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<h3>7-DFB (Seven day fat burner)</h3>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-656" title="7-dfb1" src="http://www.criticalorie.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/7-dfb1.jpg" alt="" width="151" height="151" />According to their website, 7-DFB (seven day fat burner) is &#8220;the ONLY Fat Burner in the World that can help YOU Lose 7, 10, 14, Even Up To 21 POUNDS in Just 7-Days&#8221;. They claim the average loser loses 8.75 pounds in 7 days. This 7-DFB review will determine if there is any validity to these lofty claims.<br />
What are the ingredients in 7-DFB?</p>
<p>The following is the ingredient list found on the 7-DFB website</p>
<p>Serving Size: 6 Capsules<br />
Amount per 6 capsule serving</p>
<p>Total carbohydrate 2000 mg<br />
Dietary Fiber      2000 mg<br />
Potassium Gluconate  200 mg<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/chromium-picolinate-review/" >Chromium Polynicotinat</a>e 2 mg<br />
Dandelion Root  1500 mg<br />
Psyllium Husk   500 mg<br />
Oat Bran Fiber   500 mg<br />
Rice Bran Fiber  500 mg<br />
Uva Ursi   500 mg<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/glucomannan-review/" >Glucomannan</a> 500 mg<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/flaxseed-review/" >Flax seed powder</a> 500 mg<br />
Cranberry   500 mg<br />
Buchu Leaves 4:1  200 mg<br />
Alfalfa   200 mg<br />
Juniper Berries  200 mg<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/garlic-review/" >Garlic</a> 100:1   200 mg<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/ginger-review-is-ginger-effective-in-diet-pills/" >Ginger Root </a> 120 mg<br />
Parsley   100 mg<br />
Mint leaf   100 mg<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/raspberry-ketone-review-effectiveness-of-raspberry-ketone-in-weight-loss/" >Red Raspberry</a> Leaf  70 mg<br />
Lemon Peel   70 mg<br />
Hawthorn Berries  70 mg<br />
Red Clover Leaf  70 mg<br />
Burdock Root   70 mg<br />
Irish Moss   70 mg<br />
Aloe Vera   70 mg<br />
Sage    70 mg<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/cayenne-review/" >Cayenne Pepper</a> 70 mg<br />
Noni    50 mg<br />
Mangosteen   50 mg<br />
Pomegranate   50 mg<br />
Apple Cider Vinegar  50 mg<br />
Grapefruit Seed  50 mg</p>
<p>What a long list of ingredients! The 7-DFB website has a description of each ingredient. In addition to those listed on the bottle, they also list <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/caffeine-anhydrous-review/" >Caffeine Anyhdrous</a>, apple pectin, fennel seed, and goldenseal.<br />
This seems strange since these ingredients are not listed on the bottle.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/chromium-picolinate-review/" >Chromium Picolinate </a>(chromium + picolinic acid) is pushed by companies as an aid to losing weight. It is known that small quantities of chromium are “needed for glucose utilization by insulin in normal health, but deficiency is extremely rare in developed nations.” ((<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium_picolinate">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium_picolinate</a>))<br />
Some claim chromium picolinate reduces insulin resistance and leads to weight loss. However, studies show mixed results.</p>
<h3>Do you have a chromium deficiency? Probably not.</h3>
<p>Glucomannan is a dietary fiber which makes you feel full. Studies have shown it is effective in promoting weight loss, but only if you take 2-4 grams per day. The amount of glucomannan in 7-DFB diet pills is not enough to cause weight loss.</p>
<p>The remainder of the ingredients in 7-DFB might be healthy, but they have no effect on weight loss (unless you call a laxative effect a way to promote weight loss). This 7-DFB review finds there is no ingredient in 7-DFB which has been proven to contribute to weight loss (at least not in proven amounts).<br />
How much does 7-DFB cost?</p>
<p>One bottle of 7-DFB diet pills costs $19.99 for a seven day supply. However, if you join the Orovo club (a multi-level marketing company) you can get a bottle of 7-DFB for about $5 (after you pay full price for one product).</p>
<h3>How should 7-DFB be taken?</h3>
<p>The recommended dosage is 6 capsules twice a day for seven days. Allow 7-days without using the product in between cycles.<br />
What are the side effects of 7-DFB?</p>
<p>Side effects of 7-DFB diet pills include frequent bowel movements, increased heart rate, and nausea.<br />
Is there a guarantee for 7-DFB?</p>
<p>The 7-DFB website says they will give a full refund if you return your empty bottle (plus any unopened bottles). You will receive a &#8220;prompt refund&#8221; minus shipping and handling.</p>
<h3>7-DFB conclusion</h3>
<p>This 7-DFB review finds this is not a typical fat burner. It does not contain ingredients typically contained in fat burners. There are no proven ingredients in 7-DFB diet pills. Any claim that you can lose 21 pounds in seven days should be a huge red flag. Maybe you could lose weight on 7-DFB but it would most likely be because you would be stuck on the toilet for a week. If you really want to lose weight, look for a diet pill that includes proven ingredients in proven amounts.</p>

<h3>How should 7-DFB be taken?</h3>
<p>The recommended dosage is 6 capsules twice a day for seven days. Allow 7-days without using the product in between cycles.<br />
What are the side effects of 7-DFB?</p>
<p>Side effects of 7-DFB diet pills include frequent bowel movements, increased heart rate, and nausea.<br />
Is there a guarantee for 7-DFB?</p>
<p>The 7-DFB website says they will give a full refund if you return your empty bottle (plus any unopened bottles). You will receive a &#8220;prompt refund&#8221; minus shipping and handling.</p>
<h3>7-DFB conclusion</h3>
<p>This 7-DFB review finds this is not a typical fat burner. It does not contain ingredients typically contained in fat burners. There are no proven ingredients in 7-DFB diet pills. Any claim that you can lose 21 pounds in seven days should be a huge red flag. Maybe you could lose weight on 7-DFB but it would most likely be because you would be stuck on the toilet for a week. If you really want to lose weight, look for a diet pill that includes proven ingredients in proven amounts.</p>

This Leptodrene review will dissect the claims about Leptodrene&#8217;s research as well as explain the details about the Leptodrene ingredients to reveal what Leptodrene diet pills will actually do.</p>
<h3>Leptodrene Ingredients</h3>
<p>Green Tea (50% caffeine)<br />
Cayenne Pepper Extract<br />
Acai Extract<br />
Garlic Extract<br />
Barley Extract<br />
Buckwheat Extract<br />
Flaxseed Extract<br />
Lactobacillus Acidophillus<br />
Salmon Oil Powder<br />
Alfalfa Extract<br />
Soybean Extract<br />
Wheatgrass Extract<br />
Alpha lipoic Acid<br />
DMAE<br />
Idebenone</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/green-tea-review/" >Green tea</a> is a proven diet pill ingredient; it increases metabolic rate. However, <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/goto.php?a=leptodrene" rel="nofollow">Leptodrene </a>does not say how much green tea it contains, making it impossible for this Leptodrene review to determine if Leptodrene diet pills contain enough green tea to be effective.</p>
<p>Research shows cayenne pepper may contribute to weight loss by lowering food intake and increasing energy. More research is needed to determine how much cayenne pepper is needed for weight loss.</p>
<p>Acai is the new hoodia. It is endorsed by various celebrities and television programs. Despite what some big names claim, there is NO research to prove that Acai actually contributes to weight loss.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/garlic-review/" >Garlic</a> helps regulate blood sugar levels, which can lead to weight loss.</p>
<p>Barley and buckwheat both have healthy benefits, but they have not been proven to contribute to weight loss.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/alpha-lipoic-acid-review/" >Alpha Lipoic Acid </a>(ALA) is needed to produce energy. Many diet pill companies include ALA in their formula, but your body creates enough ALA; you don&#8217;t need to supplement with more.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/dmae-dimethylethanolamine-review/" >DMAE</a> is supposed to have a positive effect on mood. Studies have shown some possible dangerous effects due to DMAE. More research is needed before we can endorse DMAE as a diet pill ingredient.</p>
<p>Idebonone is supposed to slow the aging process of the skin.</p>
<h3>Leptodrene Cost</h3>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/goto.php?a=leptodrene" rel="nofollow">Leptodrene </a>costs $29.99 for a 2 month supply (according to the website, this saves you $59). Many diet pill companies tell you are saving a bunch of money to make you think you are getting a great deal. Leptodrene is relatively inexpensive, but considering they hide how much of the proven ingredients are included, $29.99 is too much.</p>
<h3>Leptodrene Guarantee</h3>
<p>The <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/goto.php?a=leptodrene" rel="nofollow">Leptodrene </a>website says if you are not pleased with their product you can return it for a &#8220;full and hassle free refund.&#8221; They do not give specifics about how to return the product or how long it takes to get the refund.</p>
<h3>Leptodrene Research</h3>
<p>The <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/goto.php?a=leptodrene" rel="nofollow">Leptodrene </a>website claims, &#8220;The research conducted on Leptodrene is the most in-depth and comprehensive to date.&#8221; They fail to mention anything about this supposed research. They do not say who conducted the research or when or where it was done. Diet pill companies often claim there has been research done on their product, but in reality they have done their own research (or sometimes they haven&#8217;t done any at all) and have doctored the results to make their product look better.</p>
<p>The lack of information about the research on Leptodrene makes us question this product.</p>
<h3>Leptodrene Conclusion</h3>
<p>This <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/goto.php?a=leptodrene" rel="nofollow">Leptodrene </a>review finds Leptodrene is just another typical diet pill. They hide how much of each ingredient they include in their formula and they do not explain their bold claims about their supposed research. Look for a diet pill company that can substantiate their claims with real research.</p>

Formerly known as Time Caps, Star Caps is supposed to &#8220;metabolize protein, eliminate bloat and detoxify your system&#8221; (website). This StarCaps review will disclose the truth behind StarCaps and their celebrity endorsements to show what you can really expect from StarCaps diet pills.</p>
<h3>StarCaps Ingredients</h3>
<p>Papaya<br />
Garlic<br />
Valerian<br />
Corn Spices<br />
Papain</p>
<p>Papaya is full of vitamins A and C as well as healthy minerals. Despite what some diet pill companies may claim, papaya has NOT been proven to contribute to weight loss.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/garlic-review/" >Garlic </a>is used to treat infections, boost testosterone, and regulate blood sugar levels. However, studies have NOT proven that garlic contributes to weight loss.</p>
<p>StarCaps claims the papaya and garlic contained in their formula comes from &#8220;the higher Andes of Peru&#8221;. Don&#8217;t be impressed; neither papaya nor garlic has been proven to contribute to weight loss, no matter where they come from.</p>
<p>Valerian promotes restful sleep. It has not been shown to directly contribute to weight loss.</p>
<p>Papain comes from the skin of unripe papaya. It is used as a meat tenderizer and supposedly aids in digestion. There is no research to suggest that papain actually contributes to weight loss.</p>
<p>You will notice that NONE of the ingredients in StarCaps diet pills have been proven to contribute to weight loss. There is no thermogenic agent or appetite suppressant.</p>
<h3>StarCaps Cost</h3>
<p>StarCaps costs $80 per bottle (according to the website this is a $20 savings). One bottle lasts 2 weeks. This is EXTREMELY expensive for a diet pill, especially one that contains NO proven ingredients. Don&#8217;t be fooled by the celebrity endorsements; StarCaps will only leave you disappointed.</p>
<h3>StarCaps Marketing</h3>
<p>The StarCaps website is very outdated and unimpressive. It contains several celebrity endorsements and many pictures of Nikki Haskell (creator of StarCaps) with various celebrities, but there is no explanation as to why the pictures are on the website. There are not endorsements from all the celebrities&#8217; pictures. Maybe the pictures are included to impress you about how many celebrities Nikki Haskell knows. It really isn&#8217;t impressive.</p>
<p>Most diet pill companies have a disclaimer that their product is not recommended for children under 18. StarCaps says it is not recommended for children under 12.</p>
<p>There is very little information on the StarCaps website except bogus claims and outrageous celebrity endorsements. They do not list how much of each ingredient is listed in their formula. They also do not list anything about a product guarantee.</p>
<p>One interesting bit of advice from StarCaps is &#8220;avoid sugar, butter, and cheese&#8221; (website). Maybe they are worried you will gain weight when taking StarCaps if you eat these foods.</p>
<h3>StarCaps Conclusion</h3>
<p>This StarCaps review finds StarCaps is an overrated diet pill trying to sell you with celebrity endorsements. Don&#8217;t buy into it. StarCaps will only leave a hole in your wallet. Try a diet pill which includes proven ingredients in proven amounts; you will have much better results!</p>

<h3>What ingredients are contained in Liporexin RX?</h3>
<p>Liporexin RX contains the following ingredients (in 1 capsule)</p>
<p><strong>Proprietary Blend 690 mg</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/green-tea-review/" >Green Tea Extract</a> 50%</li>
<li>Oat Fiber</li>
<li>Flaxseed Oil</li>
<li>Spinach</li>
<li>Broccoli Extract 4:1</li>
<li>Garlic Extract</li>
<li>Tomato Concentrate</li>
<li>Salmon Oil Powder</li>
<li>BlueBerry Extract</li>
<li>Red Wine 30% Extract</li>
<li><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2007/hoodia-gordonii/" >Hoodia Gordonii</a></li>
</ul>
<p>Green tea has been proven to contribute to weight loss. However, since it is contained in a &#8220;Proprietary Blend,&#8221; there is no way for this Liporexin RX review to determine if the amount of green tea contained is enough to be effective (with as many ingredients as are listed and a proprietary blend not cracking 700 mg, the likelihood of there being enough green tea is slim to none).</p>
<p>Oats have been shown to help lower cholesterol levels, but at a much higher dosage than what is possible.</p>
<p>Spinach, broccoli, tomatoes, and garlic are all known for their various health benefits. However, they have not been proven to contribute to weight loss &#8211; especially at such low dosages.</p>
<p>Hoodia Gordonii is simply a fad. There’s been one study published about the effects of Hoodia and I found it very interesting. Just a few caveats though: the study was done by rats, and the Hoodia extract, P57, was injected directly into the brains of said rats. MacLean, the researcher conducting the study, asserted that the Liver processed the P57 so easily that an effective (high enough) dosage would probably be impossible. ((ibid.)) I did quite a bit of digging and could not find any studies that showed Hoodia aided in weight loss — at all.</p>
<h3>How much does Liporexin RX cost?</h3>
<p>Liporexin RX diet pills cost $75.95 per bottle (60 capsules). A bottle will last 10-30 days depending on the dosage. This is extremely expensive, especially considering there is no evidence that it works. Liporexin RX can only be bought on Ebay. Discounts are offered if you buy in bulk. Don&#8217;t be tempted to buy this product; it will only disappoint.</p>
<h3>What are the side effects of Liporexin RX?</h3>
<p>The side effects of Liporexin RX include headaches, jitters, and sleeplessness.</p>
<h3>Liporexin RX Review Conclusion</h3>
<p>This Liporexin RX review finds that Liporexin RX is a diet pill banking on the Hoodia hype. They do not disclose how much of each ingredient is included, probably because they don&#8217;t want you to know. If you want a diet pill that will give you real results, look somewhere else.</p>

<p>This Liporexin RX review finds that Liporexin RX is a diet pill banking on the Hoodia hype. They do not disclose how much of each ingredient is included, probably because they don&#8217;t want you to know. If you want a diet pill that will give you real results, look somewhere else.</p>

<p>As you can see, <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/goto.php?a=orovo detox" rel="nofollow">Orovo Detox</a> has thrown in everything but the kitchen sink. Realize that just because a product has a long list of ingredients doesn&#8217;t mean it is an effective product. In fact, the opposite is often true. They want you to believe that the number of ingredients makes it more effective.</p>
<p>In this very long list of ingredients, only one, <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/green-tea-review/" >green tea</a>, has been proven to contribute to weight loss.</p>
<p>Green tea is an excellent diet pill ingredient. It has been proven to significantly contribute to weight loss IF it is used in the correct amount. However, <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/goto.php?a=orovo detox" rel="nofollow">Orovo Detox</a> includes green tea only in a &#8220;blend&#8221;, so the actual amount of green tea is not disclosed. Therefore, this Orovo Detox review cannot determine whether the amount of green tea included in Orovo Detox diet pills is enough to cause weight loss.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/dmae-dimethylethanolamine-review/" >DMAE</a> is supposed to have a positive influence on mood, but more human research is needed before it can be considered a good ingredient in a diet pill.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/wheatgrass-review/" >Wheatgrass</a> is supposed to detoxify heavy metals from the blood stream and improve the digestive system, among many other things.While wheatgrass is healthy, there is no proof it contributes to weight loss.</p>
<p>The remainder of these ingredients, while they may be healthy, do not directly contribute to weight loss.</p>
<h3>How much does Orovo Detox cost?</h3>
<p>This is a tricky question. The official website says the retail price is $89.95 for one bottle, but you can buy it on the website for $39.99. You can save even more if you buy in bulk. This is a classic retail marketing tactic used to make people feel like they are getting a good deal so they will buy more.</p>
<p>Orovo has an income-opportunity side to it as well.  If you sign up for their autoship program then you&#8217;ll be able to refer friends and earn money when friends by Orovo products.  If you&#8217;re a great salesman then i suppose you could earn some extra money doing this.</p>

<h3>How should Orovo Detox diet pills be taken?</h3>
<p>The <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/goto.php?a=orovo detox" rel="nofollow">Orovo Detox</a> website instructs that the product should be taken for seven days (4 capsules twice a day) followed by a seven day rest period. Why is this? According to the website, &#8220;Because you will lose weight faster with Orovo DETOX than any other weight loss product ever made. The combination of the original 10 SuperFoods plus 31 Detox Agents promote results so FAST that taking for more than 7 consecutive days will cause you to lose weight TOO QUICKLY!&#8221;</p>
<p>We doubt the product will help you lose weight too quickly, based on our review as stated above.  Throwing out cautions like this are usually meant to simply legitimize the product in a prospect&#8217;s eyes.</p>
<h3>What are the side effects of Orovo Detox?</h3>
<p>The side effects of <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/goto.php?a=orovo detox" rel="nofollow">Orovo Detox</a> diet pills may include frequent bowel movements (though not <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/alli-review/" >explosive and without warning, a la Alli</a>), anxiety, and possibly jitters.</p>
<h3>Orovo Detox Conclusion</h3>
<p>This <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/goto.php?a=orovo detox" rel="nofollow">Orovo Detox</a> review finds that Orovo Detox diet pills are a nice contender for a detox option.  We like it overall.</p>
