This Nuphedra review will detail the ingredients in Nuphedra and help you determine if Nuphedra is the product for you.</p>
<h3>Nuphedra Ingredients</h3>
<p>Serving size 2 capsules<br />
<strong>Vitamin C</strong> 30 mg<br />
<strong>Vitamin E</strong> 15 mg<br />
<strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/chromium-picolinate-review/">Chromium Polynicotinate</a></strong> (300 mcg) has shown varying results in clinical trials.<br />
<strong>Vitamin B12</strong> 100 mcg<br />
<strong>Niacin</strong> 20 mg<br />
<strong>Vitamin B6</strong> 25 mg<br />
<strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/green-tea-review/">Green tea</a></strong> (250 mg) has been proven to contribute to weight loss when taken in doses of 300 mg or more per day. Therefore, if you take the recommended 4-6 capsules per day, you will be getting plenty of green tea to cause weight loss.<br />
<strong>Oolong tea</strong> (150 mg) does contain caffeine, which has been shown to contribute to weight loss.<br />
<strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/phenylethylamine-review/">Phenylethylamine</a></strong> (50 mg) is a feel good ingredient; it has not been proven to contribute to weight loss.<br />
<strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/cayenne-review/">Cayenne</a></strong> 100 mg<br />
<strong>Razberri-K</strong> (75 mg) is also known as <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/raspberry-ketone-review-effectiveness-of-raspberry-ketone-in-weight-loss/">raspberry ketones</a>. It has been shown to contribute to weight loss in mice, but more human research is needed.<br />
<strong>Thermodiamine</strong> (Evodiamine) (10 mg) has been proven to cause weight loss in rodents, but more human research is needed.<br />
<strong>Lipolide-SC</strong> (10 mg) increases fat burning capabilities.<br />
<strong>Yohimbine</strong> (2 mg) has been shown to contribute to weight loss.<br />
<strong>Green Coffee Bean</strong> Extract (50 mg) has been shown to inhibit weight gain, but only in mice. Again, more human research is needed.<br />
<strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/ginger-review-is-ginger-effective-in-diet-pills/">Ginger</a></strong> 100 mg<br />
<strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/synephrine-review/">Synephrine</a></strong> (20 mg) is a great diet pill ingredient. However, the important thing to note is the concentration of synephrine contained&#8211;the higher the better. Unfortunately, Nuphedra fails to list the concentration of synephrine it contains. Therefore, it is impossible for this Nuphedra review to determine if the concentration of synephrine of contained is enough to cause weight loss.<br />
<strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/bioperine-review/">Bioperine</a></strong> (5 mg) helps the body absorb more nutrients. There is no evidence that it directly contributes to weight loss.<br />
<strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/vinpocetine-review/">Vinpocetine</a></strong> (2.5 mg) has not been proven to contribute to weight loss.<br />
<strong>Dandelion</strong> 300 mg<br />
<strong>Uva Ursi </strong>(150 mg) is used to treat bladder infections and arthritis; it does not cause weight loss.</p>
<h3>Nuphedra Cost</h3>
<p>Nuphedra diet pills cost $61.95 for a 30 day supply. This Nuphedra review finds Nuphedra is on the expensive side compared to other diet pills. Nuphedra does contain some great diet pill ingredients, but you can find a diet pill that is just as effective while costing you a lot less.</p>
<h3>Nuphedra Guarantee</h3>
<p>Is there a guarantee on Nuphedra diet pills? Well, the Nuphedra website is currently not working and you can&#8217;t order directly from the manufacturer at this point. Some retailers offer their own guarantee on products they sell. Be sure to check with the individual retailer to know if there is a guarantee.</p>
<h3>Nuphedra Conclusion</h3>
<p>This Nuphedra review finds Nuphedra contains some excellent diet pill ingredients in the necessary amounts. The only downfall to Nuphedra is the price.  Nephedra should be effective in helping with weight loss.  Can you find cheaper alternatives? Probably.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.criticalorie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/phenphedrine.jpg" alt="phenphedrine" title="phenphedrine" width="64" height="150" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1644" />Phenphedrine is another &#8220;High Performance Weight Loss Formula&#8221; that has some good potential for effective weight loss.  It uses many of the same ingredients as the popular Fenphedra diet pill, and looks to have borrowed its website design as well.  This Phenphedrine review will look into the ingredients as well as the marketing to see what Phenphedrine has to offer.</p>
<h2>Ingredients</h2>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/dicaffeine-malate-review/">Infinergy DiCaffeine Malate</a></strong> (250mg) &#8211; While DiCaffeine Malate isn&#8217;t any better or more effective than regular caffeine, caffeine has been proven to increase the metabolic rate, thus aiding in weight loss.  You can read our <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2007/caffeine/">caffeine review here</a> or our <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/dicaffeine-malate-review/">DiCaffeine Malate review here</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Humulus Lupulus</strong> (100mg) &#8211; While I wasn&#8217;t able to find much research about this ingredient, the little that I did find suggested that Humulus Lupulus can have a calming effect.  The inclusion of this ingredient is likely to offset the effects (jitters) of the stimulants in Phenphedrine.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/chocamine-review/">Chocamine</a></strong> (50mg) &#8211; A &#8220;patent pending&#8221; cocoa extract that&#8217;s suppose to have the good benefits of chocolate without the sugar.  It contains caffeine and hence, is another stimulant.  </p>
<p><strong>Razberri-K</strong> (50mg) &#8211; Raspberry Ketone is believed by some to help in fat buring, but evidence is lacking.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/ginger-review-is-ginger-effective-in-diet-pills/">Ginger</a></strong> (50mg) &#8211; While there&#8217;s not much research out there on the effects of ginger on weight loss in humans, it&#8217;s believed by some to help with arthritis pain and heart disease.  Don&#8217;t plan on it doing much in terms of weight loss.  </p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/phenylethylamine-review/">Phenylethylamine</a></strong> (20mg) &#8211; Having been shown to increase feelings of well-being, Phenylethylamine has been called by some the &#8220;Love Drug.&#8221;  It&#8217;s likely put into Phenphedrine to counteract some of effects of the stimulants.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/synephrine-review/">Synephrine</a></strong> (20mg) &#8211; Has been proven to be an effective stimulant in weight loss.  The inclusion of synephrine means that the weight loss pill will be more effective, but also that those who don&#8217;t do well with stimulants should look elsewhere.</p>
<p><strong>Evodiamine</strong> (15mg) &#8211; Has been shown to contribute to weight loss.  </p>
<p><strong>Sclareolide</strong> (15mg)</p>
<p><strong>Dimethylamylamine</strong> (15mg) &#8211; Another powerful stimulant.</p>
<p><strong>Yohimbine</strong> (3mg) &#8211; Has been shown to contribute to weight loss by mobilizing fatty acid.</p>
<p>The ingredients in Phenphedrine are, for the most part, pretty effective ingredients.  It is very stimulant heavy, so those that don&#8217;t do well with stimulants should consider something else.  The ingredient profile in Phenphedrine is very similar to that of Fenphedra.  Phenphedrine has added a couple of other ingredients, but not many of them are anything to shout about.  </p>
<h2>Phenphedrine&#8217;s Marketing</h2>
<p>Blatantly put, the Phenphedrine website is almost a direct copy of the Fenphedra website.  They both use the same CART vs NPY sales copy, which makes sense since they contain much of the same ingredients.  </p>
<p>While I can&#8217;t be sure if the testimonials on the website are legitimate or not, I don&#8217;t like that the photos are obviously stock photos (seen all over the internet) and not photos of the actual person giving the testimonial.  </p>
<h2>Phenphedrine&#8217;s Price</h2>
<p>Phenphedrine costs $69.95 per bottle.  This is an average price for an <em>effective</em> diet pill.  If it wouldn&#8217;t work, I&#8217;d say this is too much, but if Phenphedrine can deliver results (like Fenphedra), than the price is reasonable.</p>
<h2>Lifetime Guarantee</h2>
<p>One thing that I really like about Phenphedrine is that they offer a lifetime money back guarantee.  They don&#8217;t let you return any opened bottles, but this is somewhat common in this industry.</p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>The ingredients in Phenphedrine are strong.  As such, this stimulant heavy diet pill is likely to help you with weight loss.  Because of the stimulants, however, the diet pill won&#8217;t be for everyone.  All things considered, Phephedrine gets a green light.</p>

<h3>MeltRX 24 Ultra Ingredients</h3>
<p>Thiamin<br />
Niacin<br />
Vitamin B6<br />
Folate<br />
Vitamin B12<br />
Biotin<br />
Pantothenic Acid<br />
Calcium<br />
Iodine<br />
Magnesium<br />
Zinc<br />
Copper<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/chromium-picolinate-review/">Chromium</a> has shown varying results in clinical trials; some studies have shown it contributes to weight loss while others have shown the opposite.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/green-tea-review/">Green tea</a> is an excellent diet pill. It has to be used in doses of 300 mg or more per day in order to be effective at causing weight loss. Unfortunately, MeltRX 24 Ultra fails to list how much Green tea it contains, making it impossible for this MeltRX 24 Ultra review to determine if there is enough Green tea in MeltRX 24 Ultra diet pills to contribute to weight loss.<br />
Cinnamon<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/ginger-review-is-ginger-effective-in-diet-pills/">Ginger</a> root<br />
Ginko Biloba supports memory function, but it does not contribute to weight loss.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/garcinia-cambogia-review/">Garcinia Cambogia</a> contains HCA, which has been shown to contribute to weight loss. However, recent reports from the FDA show HCA may be linked to serious health concerns for the liver. Therefore, we cannot endorse a product containing HCA.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/l-tyrosine-review/">L-Tyrosine</a> has been shown to help increase focus during stressful periods. It does cause weight loss, but only when taken in doses of 500 mg to 1500 mg per day. Again, MeltRX 24 Ultra does not say how much L-Tyrosine it contains, but it is extremely unlikely that there is enough of it to contribute to weight loss.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/glutamine-review/">L-Glutamine</a> is produced naturally by the body. It is unlikely that you would need to supplement with L-Glutamine because your body produces as much as it needs.<br />
Lecithin</p>
<p>You will note that MeltRX 24 Ultra diet pills do contain a few proven diet pill ingredients. However, it does not reveal how much of each ingredient it contains. Additionally, MeltRX 24 Ultra contains HCA, which can cause liver problems. Therefore, we cannot recommend MeltRX 24 Ultra.</p>
<h3>MeltRX 24 Ultra Price</h3>
<p>MeltRX 24 Ultra diet pills cost $54 for a 13 day supply, with a discount for buying in bulk. This is WAY too much to pay for this product. There is no reason to believe MeltRX 24 Ultra will actually cause weight loss, and considering the possible danger of HCA, you shouldn&#8217;t bother even trying MeltRX 24 Ultra.</p>
<h3>MeltRX 24 Ultra Guarantee</h3>
<p>MeltRX 24 Ultra has a 30 day, 110% money back guarantee. Although we do like to see a guarantee, 30 days is not enough time to know whether or not a diet pill will actually work. We prefer to see a 90 day guarantee.</p>
<h3>MeltRX 24 Ultra Conclusion</h3>
<p>This MeltRX 24 Ultra review finds this product is potentially dangerous, and there is no reason to believe it will really cause weight loss. It is also way too expensive. If you are really interested in losing weight, go with a product that includes ingredients that have been clinically proven, ingredients that will not be dangerous to your health.</p>

<h3>MeltRX 24 Ultra Ingredients</h3>
<p>Thiamin<br />
Niacin<br />
Vitamin B6<br />
Folate<br />
Vitamin B12<br />
Biotin<br />
Pantothenic Acid<br />
Calcium<br />
Iodine<br />
Magnesium<br />
Zinc<br />
Copper<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/chromium-picolinate-review/">Chromium</a> has shown varying results in clinical trials; some studies have shown it contributes to weight loss while others have shown the opposite.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/green-tea-review/">Green tea</a> is an excellent diet pill. It has to be used in doses of 300 mg or more per day in order to be effective at causing weight loss. Unfortunately, MeltRX 24 Ultra fails to list how much Green tea it contains, making it impossible for this MeltRX 24 Ultra review to determine if there is enough Green tea in MeltRX 24 Ultra diet pills to contribute to weight loss.<br />
Cinnamon<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/ginger-review-is-ginger-effective-in-diet-pills/">Ginger</a> root<br />
Ginko Biloba supports memory function, but it does not contribute to weight loss.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/garcinia-cambogia-review/">Garcinia Cambogia</a> contains HCA, which has been shown to contribute to weight loss. However, recent reports from the FDA show HCA may be linked to serious health concerns for the liver. Therefore, we cannot endorse a product containing HCA.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/l-tyrosine-review/">L-Tyrosine</a> has been shown to help increase focus during stressful periods. It does cause weight loss, but only when taken in doses of 500 mg to 1500 mg per day. Again, MeltRX 24 Ultra does not say how much L-Tyrosine it contains, but it is extremely unlikely that there is enough of it to contribute to weight loss.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/glutamine-review/">L-Glutamine</a> is produced naturally by the body. It is unlikely that you would need to supplement with L-Glutamine because your body produces as much as it needs.<br />

This 72 Hour Slimming Pill review will detail the ingredients in 72 Hour Slimming Pill and give you the straight truth on what this product will really do for you.</p>
<h3>72 Hour Slimming Pill Ingredients</h3>
<p>Dandelion root<br />
Uva Ursi is used to treat diarrhea, headaches, and bladder infections. There is concern of a possible drug interaction when Uva Ursi is combined with diuretics like Buchu and Juniper.<br />
Buchu has been proven to cause weight loss in mice, but there is no evidence that it does anything to cause weight loss in humans.<br />
Juniper Berry does cause weight loss in mice, but not in humans.<br />
Cornsilk<br />
Couch grass<br />
Parsley<br />
Stinging nettle<br />
Cranberry<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/cayenne-review/">Cayenne</a> may cause weight loss, but more research is needed.<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/ginger-review-is-ginger-effective-in-diet-pills/">Ginger</a> has been shown to contribute to weight loss in mice but not in humans.<br />
Milk thistle<br />
Vitamin B6 is important to good health, but it does not cause weight loss.<br />
Magnesium does not cause weight loss.<br />
Potassium Citrate does not cause weight loss.<br />
<br />
There is no real scientific evidence that 72 Hour Slimming Pill actually causes weight loss. In all reality, it might keep you  on the toilet for three days and cause short term weight loss. The website does state, &#8220;Some customers experience more frequent bowel movements.&#8221;  Don&#8217;t be fooled, though, 72 Hour Slimming Pill is not the answer to your long term weight loss goals.</p>
<h3>72 Hour Slimming Pill Cost</h3>
<p>72 Hour Slimming Pill costs $12.99 per bottle. There is a discount for bulk purchases. Each bottle contains a 30 day supply; you should wait 30 days between bottles of 72 Hour Slimming Pill.<br />
<br />
The price for 72 Hour Slimming Pill really isn&#8217;t too bad as diet pills go. However, there is no scientific evidence to prove that 72 Hour Slimming Pill actually works, so any amount of money is too much to pay for this product.<br />
<br />
Also, there is NO guarantee on 72 Hour Slimming Pill, so don&#8217;t expect to get your money back. If you do decide to buy 72 Hour Slimming Pill, we would suggest buying just 1 bottle so you aren&#8217;t out so much money if (when) it doesn&#8217;t work.</p>
<h3>72 Hour Slimming Pill Conclusion</h3>
<p>So, the question is: Will 72 Hour Slimming Pill actually cause weight loss? This 72 Hour Slimming Pill review finds 72 Hour Slimming Pill might cause temporary weight loss, but it will keep you on the toilet for at least three days.<br />
<br />
You will mostly be losing water weight, so you will see the scale go back up within a few days or weeks of taking 72 Hour Slimming Pill. For real weight loss, go with a diet pill that contains clinically proven ingredients in the appropriate amounts. Look through our recommended products to find a diet pill that will work for you.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.criticalorie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/col-nx.jpg" alt="col-nx" title="col-nx" width="78" height="139" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1446" />Col-nX is a diet pill that claims it will help you &#8220;Get rid of unnecessary weight and toxin buildup&#8221; (website). This Col-nX review will unravel the truth behind this product so you know what you can really expect from Col-nX.</p>
<h3>Col-nX Ingredients</h3>
<p>The following are the ingredients contained in Col-nX diet pills, according to the product label:<br />
Proprietary Blend 725 mg<br />
Psyllium<br />
Fennell<br />
Cascara Sagrada is a natural laxative, but it does have some side effects. You should not take Cascara Sagrada for longer than 7 days in a row.<br />
Buckthorn<br />
Licorice<br />
Rhubarb<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/ginger-review-is-ginger-effective-in-diet-pills/">Ginger</a> calms the stomach; it does not cause weight loss.<br />
Goldenseal Extract</p>
<p>This list of fibers is pretty usual for diet pills that claim to cleanse your system. None of the ingredients in Col-nX have been proven to contribute to weight loss. The Col-nX label states, &#8220;This product contains a stimulant laxative.&#8221; You will get the same results from taking an over-the-counter laxative; Col-nX is nothing special. It might help you lose weight, but you will likely spend several days on the toilet in order to do so.</p>
<h3>Col-nX Free Trial</h3>
<p>The Col-nX website offers a free 14 day trial. It has a countdown ticker that says &#8220;offer only available for the next 5:00.&#8221; If you refresh the page the countdown starts over. They just want you to think you are getting a good deal so you are more likely to buy Col-nX diet pills.<br />
<br />
There is a lot of fine print about the free trial. You have 14 days (including transit time) to cancel your free trial. If you do not cancel, you will be enrolled in autoship (they automatically ship you more product each month and charge your credit card). You will be charged $80.90 per month plus $8.99 shipping. This is just another deceptive way to take more money from you.</p>
<h3>Col-nX Website</h3>
<p>This is one of the most misleading diet pill websites we have seen, and that is saying a lot. There are several paid testimonials on the site (they even admit they are paid). How can you give any credibility to a paid testimonial? </p>
<p>They also claim Col-nX has been &#8220;Featured by Katie Couric&#8221;(website). There is a video of Katie Couric talking about Colon Cancer and the importance of having a Colonoscopy, but the video says NOTHING about Col-nX, nor does it show the product. </p>
<h3>Col-nX Conclusion</h3>
<p>This Col-nX review finds there is NO reason to believe Col-nX diet pills will make a significant contribution to weight loss. In reality, you can get the same results from any laxative, and at a MUCH lower price. Col-nX employs several unethical and misleading practices to con you into buying their product.<br />
<br />
If you are willing to spend half your day on the toilet in order to lose weight, go ahead and try Col-nX. Otherwise, if you want a more pleasant experience with real weight loss results, take a diet pill that actually contains clinically proven ingredients. Check out our recommended products to find one that will work for you.</p>

		<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 />

<p><strong>Instant Detox Blend (710mg)</strong><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>

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>

This Lipofuze review will explore the ingredients in Lipofuze and try to evaluate how effective it will be so that you know what to expect from this diet pill.</p>
<h3>Lipofuze Ingredients</h3>
<p>ThermoDiamine (Evodiamine) has been shown to cause weight loss.<br />
Razberi-K (<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/raspberry-ketone-review-effectiveness-of-raspberry-ketone-in-weight-loss/">raspberry ketone</a>) is believed to be a fat burner and has been shown to cause weight loss in some studies.<br />
FucoPure (fucoxanthin) is an antioxidant found in seaweed; it is supposed to protect cells from damage.<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/forslean-review/">Forslean</a> is a diet pill ingredient proven to burn fat while retaining muscle mass.<br />
Guggul EZ 100 (<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/guggulesterones-review/">gugglesterones</a>) is supposed to increase thyroid function, leading to weight loss. More researched is needed.<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/bioperine-review/">BioPerine</a> enhances the body&#8217;s ability to absorb nutrients; this is always a welcome thing in supplementation.<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/green-tea-review/">Green tea</a> is a great diet pill ingredient as it has been proven to contribute to weight loss when used in doses of at least 300 mg per day. <br />
Capsaicin helps with digestion and circulation. More research is needed to determine the effect of capsaicin on weight loss.<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/synephrine-review/">Synephrine HCl</a> is an effective, proven weight loss ingredient. <br />
7-OHO Dhea has been shown to contribute to weight loss.<br />
Cinnamon<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/phenylethylamine-review/">Phenylethylamine</a> is a &#8220;feel good&#8221; ingredient; it does not contribute to weight loss.<br />
Ginger<br />
20 Hydroxyecdysone </p>
<p>So you are probably asking &#8220;What does all this mean?&#8221; Basically, Lipofuze diet pills contain some very effective diet pill ingredients.  The ingredients in Lipofuze certainly suggest that it will be an effective weight loss supplement.</p>
<h3>Lipofuze Price</h3>
<p>According to the Lipofuze website, you can get Lipofuze diet pills for &#8220;only&#8221; $49.95 for a one month supply.  This is an average price for a diet pill.  Given the high quality ingredients, I&#8217;d say that&#8217;s a pretty good value for your money.</p>
<h3>Lipofuze Guarantee</h3>
<p>The Lipofuze website says you can get a full refund if you return the empty bottle (they want you to use the entire bottle).  Themoney back guarantee is for life.  This refund policy actually looks legitimate and about the best that I&#8217;ve seen. </p>
<h3>Lipofuze Conclusion</h3>
<p>This Lipofuze review finds Lipofuze contains several great diet pill ingredients. They&#8217;ve used ingredients that are backed by a large amount scientific studies.  The price is reasonable and you don&#8217;t get a better guarantee than theirs (lifetime).  I&#8217;d say give Lipofuze a try and let us know how it goes.</p>

<p>LipoFlush diet pills supposedly &#8220;dramatically decrease body fat, increase energy levels, preserve skeletal muscle, and provide major health benefits&#8221; (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.</p>
<h3>Hydroxycitric Acid Update</h3>
<p>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&#8217;s report</p>
<p>Common symptoms of liver complications include:</p>
<ul>
<li>jaundice (yellowing of the skin)</li>
<li>brown urine</li>
<li>light colored stools</li>
<li>unusual tiredness</li>
<li>stomach pain</li>
<li>itching</li>
<li>loss of appetite</li>
<li>weakness</li>
<li>vomiting</li>
</ul>
<p>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, &#8220;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.&#8221; you can never be too cautious.  </p>
<p>So, while further study and research is needed to confirm the link between HCA and the liver problems, until proven otherwise <strong>any products that contain HCA are no longer recommended on this website.</strong> </p>
<p>
<h3>LipoFlush Ingredients</h3>
</p>
<p>Vitamin D3 (100 IU) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Vitamin B5 (10 mg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Vitamin B6 (25 mg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Vitamin B12 (1000 mcg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Folic Acid (1000 mcg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Biotin (100 mcg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Potassium (99 mg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Calcium (415 mg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Magnesium (200 mg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Zinc (10 mg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Chromium (50 mcg) has shown varying results in clinical studies.</p>
<p>Choline (650 mg) supposedly reduces body fat, but studies do not back up this claim.</p>
<p>L-Carnitine (450 mg) has not been proven to contribute to weight loss.</p>
<p>Bioperine (4 mg) increases the body&#8217;s ability to absorb nutrients. It does not directly contribute to weight loss.</p>
<p>Citrus Aurantium (300 mg) contains Synephrine, which is a great, proven diet pill ingredient. The important aspect with Synephrine is the concentration&#8211;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.</p>
<p>Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) (100 mg) does contribute to weight loss, but 100 mg isn&#8217;t going to do much.</p>
<p>Cordyceps Sinesis (100 mg)</p>
<p>Garcinia Cambogia (400 mg) does contribute to weight loss.</p>
<p>Hawthorne Berry (100 mg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Caffeine (99 mg) is a good weight loss ingredient, but there is not enough caffeine in LipoFlush diet pills to be effective.</p>
<p>LipoFlush Proprietary Complex 4000 mg</p>
<p>Acanthopanax Senticosus</p>
<p>Alpha Lipoic Acid(ALA)  helps produce energy. However, the human body makes plenty of ALA, so there is no need to supplement.</p>
<p>Banaba Leaf</p>
<p>Beta Sitosterol</p>
<p>Betaine</p>
<p>Capsicum</p>
<p>Cellulose</p>
<p>Cinnamon</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>Genistein</p>
<p>Ginger</p>
<p>Grape Seed</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>Guggul extract is supposed to increase thyroid function, leading to weight loss. However, research does not support these claims.</p>
<p>Glycine</p>
<p>Hoodia does absolutely nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Inositol transports fat from the liver. Again, LipoFlush hides how much Inositol it contains.</p>
<p>Kelp</p>
<p>Kola Nut</p>
<p>Lecithin</p>
<p>L-Histidine</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>Green Tea is a very effective ingredient, but LipoFlush does not list how much green tea it contains.</p>
<p>Magnesium</p>
<p>Mucuna Puriens</p>
<p>Panax Ginseng</p>
<p>Phosphatidylserine</p>
<p>Quercetine dihydrate</p>
<p>Siler extract</p>
<p>Theobroma Cocoa Complex</p>
<p>White Willow Bark is an anti-inflammatory. It does not cause weight loss.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>
<h3>LipoFlush Cost</h3>
</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>
<h3>LipoFlush Research</h3>
</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>
<h3>LipoFlush Conclusion</h3>
</p>
<p>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&#8217;t bother with this product. Instead, go with one of our recommended products; they contain the necessary amount of proven ingredients and they won&#8217;t break your bank.</p>

<p>LipoFlush diet pills supposedly &#8220;dramatically decrease body fat, increase energy levels, preserve skeletal muscle, and provide major health benefits&#8221; (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.</p>
<h3>Hydroxycitric Acid Update</h3>
<p>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&#8217;s report</p>
<p>Common symptoms of liver complications include:</p>
<ul>
<li>jaundice (yellowing of the skin)</li>
<li>brown urine</li>
<li>light colored stools</li>
<li>unusual tiredness</li>
<li>stomach pain</li>
<li>itching</li>
<li>loss of appetite</li>
<li>weakness</li>
<li>vomiting</li>
</ul>
<p>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, &#8220;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.&#8221; you can never be too cautious.  </p>
<p>So, while further study and research is needed to confirm the link between HCA and the liver problems, until proven otherwise <strong>any products that contain HCA are no longer recommended on this website.</strong> </p>
<p>
<h3>LipoFlush Ingredients</h3>
</p>
<p>Vitamin D3 (100 IU) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Vitamin B5 (10 mg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Vitamin B6 (25 mg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Vitamin B12 (1000 mcg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Folic Acid (1000 mcg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Biotin (100 mcg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Potassium (99 mg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Calcium (415 mg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Magnesium (200 mg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Zinc (10 mg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Chromium (50 mcg) has shown varying results in clinical studies.</p>
<p>Choline (650 mg) supposedly reduces body fat, but studies do not back up this claim.</p>
<p>L-Carnitine (450 mg) has not been proven to contribute to weight loss.</p>
<p>Bioperine (4 mg) increases the body&#8217;s ability to absorb nutrients. It does not directly contribute to weight loss.</p>
<p>Citrus Aurantium (300 mg) contains Synephrine, which is a great, proven diet pill ingredient. The important aspect with Synephrine is the concentration&#8211;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.</p>
<p>Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) (100 mg) does contribute to weight loss, but 100 mg isn&#8217;t going to do much.</p>
<p>Cordyceps Sinesis (100 mg)</p>
<p>Garcinia Cambogia (400 mg) does contribute to weight loss.</p>
<p>Hawthorne Berry (100 mg) does nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Caffeine (99 mg) is a good weight loss ingredient, but there is not enough caffeine in LipoFlush diet pills to be effective.</p>
<p>LipoFlush Proprietary Complex 4000 mg</p>
<p>Acanthopanax Senticosus</p>
<p>Alpha Lipoic Acid(ALA)  helps produce energy. However, the human body makes plenty of ALA, so there is no need to supplement.</p>
<p>Banaba Leaf</p>
<p>Beta Sitosterol</p>
<p>Betaine</p>
<p>Capsicum</p>
<p>Cellulose</p>
<p>Cinnamon</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>Genistein</p>
<p>Ginger</p>
<p>Grape Seed</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>Guggul extract is supposed to increase thyroid function, leading to weight loss. However, research does not support these claims.</p>
<p>Glycine</p>
<p>Hoodia does absolutely nothing for weight loss.</p>
<p>Inositol transports fat from the liver. Again, LipoFlush hides how much Inositol it contains.</p>
<p>Kelp</p>
<p>Kola Nut</p>
<p>Lecithin</p>
<p>L-Histidine</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>Green Tea is a very effective ingredient, but LipoFlush does not list how much green tea it contains.</p>
<p>Magnesium</p>
<p>Mucuna Puriens</p>
<p>Panax Ginseng</p>
<p>Phosphatidylserine</p>
<p>Quercetine dihydrate</p>
<p>Siler extract</p>
<p>Theobroma Cocoa Complex</p>
<p>White Willow Bark is an anti-inflammatory. It does not cause weight loss.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>
<h3>LipoFlush Cost</h3>
</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>
<h3>LipoFlush Research</h3>
</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>
<h3>LipoFlush Conclusion</h3>
</p>
<p>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&#8217;t bother with this product. Instead, go with one of our recommended products; they contain the necessary amount of proven ingredients and they won&#8217;t break your bank.</p>

</ul>
<p>Do not be impressed by this excessive list of ingredients. TFuel Hardcore diet pills do contain some effective ingredients, but they fail to mention how much of each ingredient is included. This is usually because there is just a trace amount of each ingredient included. There is no reason to believe TFuel Hardcore will actually cause weight loss.</p>
<p>The TFuel Hardcore package claims it contains &#8220;patented ingredients.&#8221; The truth is that these ingredients are included in dozens of diet pills; TFuel Hardcore is nothing special.</p>
<h3>TFuel Hardcore Price</h3>
<p>TFuel Hardcore diet pills cost $59 for 120 capsules. If you take the recommended dose of 6 capsules per day, one bottle will last 20 days. This is very expensive for a diet pill.</p>
<h3>Who is behind TFuel Hardcore?</h3>
<p>After searching online, the only place we found to buy on TFuel Hardcore diet pills was on Ebay. There is no mention of who manufacturers TFuel Hardcore. It is not even listed on the packaging. This is a huge red flag. There is no guarantee with TFuel Hardcore. Don&#8217;t bother with this product; there are just too many unknowns, including manufacturer and ingredient amounts.</p>
<h3>TFuel Hardcore Conclusion</h3>
<p>This TFuel Hardcore review finds TFuel Hardcore is nothing more than another diet pill out to get your money. Not only does TFuel Hardcore hide how much of each ingredient is included, they do not even disclose the name of the manufacturer. If you really want to lose weight, go with a diet pill that includes proven ingredients in the necessary amounts.</p>

</ul>
<p>Do not be impressed by this excessive list of ingredients. TFuel Hardcore diet pills do contain some effective ingredients, but they fail to mention how much of each ingredient is included. This is usually because there is just a trace amount of each ingredient included. There is no reason to believe TFuel Hardcore will actually cause weight loss.</p>
<p>The TFuel Hardcore package claims it contains &#8220;patented ingredients.&#8221; The truth is that these ingredients are included in dozens of diet pills; TFuel Hardcore is nothing special.</p>
<h3>TFuel Hardcore Price</h3>
<p>TFuel Hardcore diet pills cost $59 for 120 capsules. If you take the recommended dose of 6 capsules per day, one bottle will last 20 days. This is very expensive for a diet pill.</p>
<h3>Who is behind TFuel Hardcore?</h3>
<p>After searching online, the only place we found to buy on TFuel Hardcore diet pills was on Ebay. There is no mention of who manufacturers TFuel Hardcore. It is not even listed on the packaging. This is a huge red flag. There is no guarantee with TFuel Hardcore. Don&#8217;t bother with this product; there are just too many unknowns, including manufacturer and ingredient amounts.</p>
<h3>TFuel Hardcore Conclusion</h3>
<p>This TFuel Hardcore review finds TFuel Hardcore is nothing more than another diet pill out to get your money. Not only does TFuel Hardcore hide how much of each ingredient is included, they do not even disclose the name of the manufacturer. If you really want to lose weight, go with a diet pill that includes proven ingredients in the necessary amounts.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/thyroslim-ampm.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-828" title="thyroslim-ampm" src="http://www.criticalorie.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/thyroslim-ampm.jpg" alt="" width="151" height="151" /></a>Thyro-Slim supposedly, &#8220;Burns fat, boosts metabolism, controls appetite, eliminates excess water, boosts energy, supports thyroid function, regulates blood sugar levels and adrenal function, improves sleep and detoxifies your system&#8221; (website). This Thyro-Slim AM/PM review shows that there is no truth behind the claims made about Thyro-Slim. It simply will not cause weight loss.</p>
<h3>Hydroxycitric Acid Update</h3>
<p>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&#8217;s report</p>
<p>Common symptoms of liver complications include:</p>
<ul>
<li>jaundice (yellowing of the skin)</li>
<li>brown urine</li>
<li>light colored stools</li>
<li>unusual tiredness</li>
<li>stomach pain</li>
<li>itching</li>
<li>loss of appetite</li>
<li>weakness</li>
<li>vomiting</li>
</ul>
<p>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, &#8220;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.&#8221; you can never be too cautious.  </p>
<p>So, while further study and research is needed to confirm the link between HCA and the liver problems, until proven otherwise <strong>any products that contain HCA are no longer recommended on this website.</strong> </p>
<h3>Thyro-Slim AM Ingredients</h3>
<p>Selenium (100 mcg) does not cause weight loss.</p>
<p>Copper (2 mg) does not cause weight loss.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/chromium-picolinate-review/" >Chromium </a>(100 mcg) has shown conflicting results in clinical trials.</p>
<p>Energizing Blend (455 mg)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/guarana-yeba-mate-and-damiana-gyd-review/" >Guarana </a>has been shown to contribute to weight loss, but only when combined with Yerba Mate and Damiana. Thyro-Slim AM does not contain either Yerba Mate or Damiana. Thus, this Thyro-Slim review finds the Guarana in Thyro-Slim will NOT cause weight loss.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/green-tea-review/" >Green tea</a> has been proven to contribute to weight loss when used in doses of 300 mg per day or more. Thyro-Slim AM includes green tea in a proprietary blend, so there is no way of knowing if it contains enough green tea to be effective.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/garcinia-cambogia-review/" >Garcinia Cambogia</a> (500 mg) has been shown to contribute to weight loss.</p>
<p>Green orange fruit extract Citrus Aurantium (200 mg) contains <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/synephrine-review/" >synephrine</a>, which has been proven to contribute to weight loss. However, the most important thing to note with synephrine is the concentration&#8211;the higher the better. Thyro Slim AM fails to list the concentration of synephrine it contains.</p>
<p>Thyrogenic T-3 Complex (250 mg)</p>
<p>Gugglipid supposedly increases thyroid function, but studies have shown varying results.</p>
<p>Bladderwrack kelp</p>
<p>Atlantic kelp</p>
<p>Sargassi seaweed</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/l-tyrosine-review/" >L-Tyrosine</a> (175 mg) contributes to weight loss, but only when used in doses of 500 to 1500 mg per day. Thyro-Slim AM diet pills do not contain nearly enough L-Tyrosine to cause weight loss.</p>
<p>White Willow Bark (100 mg) is an anti-inflammatory. It has not been shown to cause weight loss.</p>
<p>The only proven ingredient included in the necessary amount is garcinia cambogia. Thus, this Thyro-Slim AM/PM review finds Thyro-Slim AM diet pills are not worth taking.</p>
<h3>Thyro-Slim PM Ingredients</h3>
<p>Vitamin B6 (10 mg)</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/chromium-picolinate-review/" >Chromium </a>(100 mcg) has shown varying results in clinical trials.</p>
<p>Soothing Herbal Blend (100 mg)</p>
<p>Wild Jujube Seed</p>
<p>Chamomile Flower</p>
<p>Passion Flower</p>
<p>Cleansing Blend (250 mg)</p>
<p>Senna Leaf</p>
<p>Rhubarb root</p>
<p>Cascara Sagrada Bark</p>
<p>Cassia</p>
<p>St. John&#8217;s Bread</p>
<p>Apple fruit</p>
<p>Tamarind fruit</p>
<p>Date fruit</p>
<p>Fig fruit</p>
<p>Water Balance Blend (250 mg)</p>
<p>Uva Ursi has actually been shown to have dangerous interactions with diuretics like Buchu and Juniper (which are both contained in Thyro-Slim PM diet pills.</p>
<p>Dandelion Root</p>
<p>Cranberry fruit</p>
<p>Buchu leaf</p>
<p>Cornsilk</p>
<p>Couchgrass herb</p>
<p>Hydrangea</p>
<p>Juniper</p>
<p>Artichoke</p>
<p>Restoration &amp; Adrenal Support Blend (200 mg)</p>
<p>Licorice root</p>
<p>Astragalus</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/ginger-review-is-ginger-effective-in-diet-pills/" >Ginger</a></p>
<p>Thyrogenic T-3 Complex (250 mg)</p>
<p>Guggulipid</p>
<p>Atlantic kelp</p>
<p>Bladderwrack kelp</p>
<p>Sergassi Seaweed</p>
<p>Thyro-Slim PM diet pills contain NO proven ingredients. They are not worth your time or money.</p>
<h3>Thyro-Slim AM/PM Cost</h3>
<p>A 21-day supply of Thyro-Slim AM/PM costs $24.99.This is not especially expensive for a diet pill, but considering there is only ONE proven ingredient in Thyro-Slim, any amount is too much to pay.</p>
<h3>Thyro-Slim AM/PM Marketing</h3>
<p>Thyro-Slim is manufactured by Maximum Human Performance (MHP). The MHP website is full of photos of bulging biceps and unbelievable testimonials. Don&#8217;t be fooled by their marketing. Thyro-Slim will do nothing for weight loss. Don&#8217;t waste your money on it.</p>
<h3>Thyro-Slim AM/PM Conclusion</h3>
<p>This Thyro-Slim AM/PM review finds Thyro-Slim is nothing special. Between the two formulas there is only ONE proven ingredient contained in a proven amount. Thyro-Slim will not give you the results you are looking for. Find a diet pill that contains proven ingredients in proven amounts; our recommended products are a great place to start.</p>
