This Hoodialyte review will explore the ingredients contained in Hoodialyte as well as discuss the cost in order to help you decide if this is the right product for you.</p>
<h3>Hoodialyte Ingredients</h3>
<p><strong>Vitamin C</strong> (1 mg) is important to good health, but it does not cause weight loss.<br />
<strong>Sodium</strong> (2mg) does not cause weight loss.<br />
<strong>Energy Blend 1750 mg</strong><em><br />
<em><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/carnitine-review/">L-Carnitine</a></em> has not proven to significantly contribute to weight loss.<br />
<em><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/l-tyrosine-review/">L-Tyrosine</a></em> has been proven to contribute to weight loss when included in doses of 500 to 1500 mg per day. Since Hoodialyte fails to list how much Tyrosine it contains, this Hoodialyte review is unable to determine if the amount of Tyrosine contained in Hoodialyte is enough to contribute to weight loss.<br />
<em>Malic Acid</em> has not been proven an effective diet pill ingredient.<br />
<strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2007/hoodia-gordonii/">Hoodia Pure Extract</a></strong> (400 mg) is merely hype. There is NO scientific evidence to prove that hoodia actually contributes to weight loss.<br />
<strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/green-tea-review/">Green Tea </a></strong>(150 mg) is a proven diet pill ingredient. When taken in doses of 300 mg per day, green tea does cause weight loss.<br />
<strong>Pomegranate Frui</strong>t (80 mg) is an excellent antioxidant; it does not cause weight loss.<br />
<strong>Acai Fruit</strong> (75 mg) is another hyped-up diet pill ingredient. Although acai does contain antioxidants, it does not cause weight loss.<br />
<strong>Oolong Tea</strong> (75 mg) contains <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2007/caffeine/">caffeine</a>, which has been proven to contribute to weight loss.<br />
<strong>Yohimbine Bark</strong> (15 mg) .</p>
<h3>Hoodialyte Cost</h3>
<p>Hoodialyte costs $11.99 for 6 bottles (there is a discount for buying in bulk). If you follow the recommended dosage of 3 bottles per day (one before each meal), Hoodialyte will cost you nearly $200 per month. This Hoodialyte review finds this is far too expensive for this product. While Hoodialyte does contain some effective ingredients, you can get a diet pill with the same ingredients for much less money.</p>
<h3>Hoodialyte Website</h3>
<p>The Hoodialyte website contains some interesting (and amusing) statements. They claim, &#8220;Extreme weight loss may occur. Remember to eat every day&#8221; (website).<br />
<br />
If you are looking for some cash and prizes, enter the Hoodialyte Challenge. Just send your Before and After photos from using Hoodialyte. One male and one female will win a tropical vacation plus $1000 cash. It seems a little strange. How can they verify it is really you in the photos and that you haven&#8217;t just doctored the photos (or that you actually took Hoodialyte in the first place).</p>
<h3>Hoodialyte Conclusion</h3>
<p>The real question is whether or not Hoodialyte will cause weight loss. The answer: it probably will. However, this Hoodialyte review finds Hoodialyte is way too expensive. You can get the same weight loss results from several other diet pills that cost far less.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.criticalorie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/aspire.jpg" alt="aspire" title="aspire" width="121" height="134" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1332" />Aspire is a weight loss product marketed solely towards women that claims to be the &#8220;solution women like you have been waiting for.&#8221;</p>
<p>So how does Aspire stack up against the competition?  This Aspire review will take a look at their ingredients, marketing, guarantee, and pricing to help you decide for yourself.</p>
<h2>Ingredients</h2>
<p>The Aspire weight loss product consists of 3 different formulas: Cleanse, Weight Loss, &#038; Appetite Suppressant.</p>
<p>Cleanse is designed kick start your weight loss by ridding your body of toxins.<br />
Weight Loss is meant to boost your energy and your fat burning capabilities.<br />
Appetite Suppressant is (surprise!) supposed to help you eat less.</p>
<h3>Aspire Cleanse</h3>
<p><strong>Lactobacillus Acidophilus</strong><br />
<strong>Psyllium Seed</strong><br />
<strong>Aloe Vera</strong><br />
<strong>Cascara Sagrada</strong> &#8211; A natural laxative, cascara sagrada is effective but has a number of side effects and safety warnings (such as don&#8217;t take it for longer than 7 days in a row).<br />
<strong>Milk Thistle Seed</strong><br />
<strong>Fennel Seed</strong><br />
<strong>Rhubarb Root</strong><br />
<strong>Raspberry Leaf</strong><br />
<strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/flaxseed-review/">Flaxseed</a></strong><br />
<strong>Goldenseal Herb</strong><br />
<strong>Dandelion Leaf</strong></p>
<p>This is a pretty standard mix of fibers designed to cleanse your system.  </p>
<h3>Aspire Weight Loss</h3>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/raspberry-ketone-review-effectiveness-of-raspberry-ketone-in-weight-loss/">Raspberry</a></strong><br />
<strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/guarana-yeba-mate-and-damiana-gyd-review/">Guarana</a></strong> &#8211; Has shown to be effective when combined with yerba mate and damiana.<br />
<strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/green-tea-review/">Green Tea</a></strong> &#8211; An effective and proven weight loss ingredient, green tea helps to increase the metabolic rate and is known for its fat burning capabilities.<br />
<strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/guggulesterones-review/">Guggulsterones</a></strong>While many claim that it aids in fat burning, research is lacking that supports this theory.<br />
<strong>Rhodiola Rosea</strong><br />
<strong>Cinnamon Bark</strong><br />
<strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/guarana-yeba-mate-and-damiana-gyd-review/">Yerba Mate</a></strong> &#8211; Has shown to be effective when combined with guarana and damiana.<br />
<strong>Banaba</strong><br />
<strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/ginseng-review/">Ginseng</a></strong> &#8211; Many believe that ginseng aids in weight loss, and early studies seem slightly supportive, but more definitive research is needed.<br />
<strong>Dandelion Root</strong><br />
<strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/alpha-lipoic-acid-review/">Alpha-lipoic Acid</a></strong> &#8211; While it&#8217;s true the alpha-lipoic acid helps produce energy, studies suggest that your body already makes enough of it so more isn&#8217;t likely to do much good.<br />
<strong>Evodiamine</strong><br />
<strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/chromium-picolinate-review/">Chromium</a></strong> &#8211; Chromium plays in important role in blood sugar regulation.  More research is needed, however, that shows that chromium supplementation leads directly to weight loss.</p>
<h3>Aspire Appetite Suppressant</h3>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/glucomannan-review/">Glucomannan</a></strong>A dietary fiber that has quite a bit of research backing up its claims to be an effective appetite suppressant.<br />
<strong>Fibersol-2</strong><br />
<strong><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2007/hoodia-gordonii/">Hoodia Gordonii</a></strong>Hoodia is a fad ingredient that has almost zero research backing up its claims to aid in weight loss through appetite suppression.  It became popular by marketing, and not for its efficacy.</p>
<p>Some of the ingredients in Aspire are good and some are hype.  If they disclosed the amounts of each ingredient, it would be much easier to gauge it&#8217;s effectiveness.  </p>
<h2>Aspire&#8217;s Marketing</h2>
<p>First, the positive.  I like that Aspire lists all of the ingredients in the different formulas and even has a little information about each one.  This can be found by going to the FAQ&#8217;s, then clicking the question about the ingredients.  While I wish they told us how much of each ingredient is in the mix, they&#8217;ve done more than some companies that I&#8217;ve seen.</p>
<p>What I don&#8217;t like about Aspire&#8217;s marketing is that the entire website feels like some hyped up sales pitch that almost tries to play off of people&#8217;s insecurities.  You&#8217;ll see comments such as, &#8220;Do You Feel Like Crying When You Look In The Mirror? Use Aspire And Laugh Out Loud When You Get On The Scale&#8221; or &#8220;heads will turn wherever and whenever you walk by.&#8221;</p>
<p>Oh, and this was a favorite: </p>
<blockquote><p>You should not be spending your time worrying or crying about your weight. If you really want to be slim and gorgeous and wear those hot bathing suits you’ve seen on the beaches (and only dreamed of wearing), we have the answer you’ve been waiting for.</p></blockquote>
<p>As if we have to be slim and skinny in order to be happy and beautiful.  I hope you can see through the shallow marketing.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t however, see any big red flags other than the distasteful sales copy.</p>
<h2>Aspire&#8217;s Money Back Guarantee</h2>
<p>I was glad to see that Aspire offers a 90 day money back guarantee.  Anything over 60 days in this industry is pretty good, so 90 days is a pretty solid guarantee.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m somewhat confused at something in their guarantee.  Here&#8217;s what it says (emphasis added):  &#8220;If you’re not happy with Aspire, contact us within 90 days of your purchase date and return <strong>the unused portion</strong> (<strong>even if you’ve used everything</strong>), and you’ll get a full refund (less shipping), no questions asked!&#8221;</p>
<p>The first part makes me believe that you can only get a refund for the unused (or unopened) bottles.  But the second part in parenthesis makes it sound like you get a refund on all bottles, even if they were used (and are now empty).  </p>
<p>I don&#8217;t have any big reason to believe that this ambiguous terminology isn&#8217;t intentionally trying to trick consumers, but If I were you I&#8217;d play it safe and only count on getting refunded for unused bottles.</p>
<h2>Aspire&#8217;s Price</h2>
<p>A one month supply is $49.97.  If it&#8217;s effective, this isn&#8217;t a bad price for a weight loss product.  Of course, they suggest you take it for 3 to 6 months (likely to pad their pockets a little more).</p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>The Aspire weight loss product consist of a pretty good ingredient profile.  Many of the ingredients have been proven, and some have not.  Overall, as long as the ingredients are included in the correct amounts (which we can&#8217;t verify since they don&#8217;t disclose it) than it&#8217;s likely to be fairly effective.  I like their guarantee and the price is decent.  I don&#8217;t, however, like the manner in which they&#8217;ve marketed their product. You be the judge.</p>

This Healthe´ Trim review details the ingredients contained in Healthe´ Trim and exposes the sketchy marketing tactics behind Healthe´ Trim.</p>
<h3>Healthe´ Trim Ingredients</h3>
<p><strong>Green Tea</strong> is an excellent diet pill ingredient. It has been proven to increase metabolism, leading to weight loss. Studies found green tea is effective when used in doses of 300 mg per day or more. Healthe´ Trim diet pills do not list how much green tea they contain.</p>
<p><strong>Hoodia Gordonii</strong> is supposed to be a miracle ingredient. Despite all the hype, there is absolutely NO scientific evidence to show that Hoodia Gordonii does anything for weight loss. Don&#8217;t be taken by the claim that Healthe´ Trim contains &#8220;real Hoodia.&#8221; Real Hoodia is no more effective than the fake stuff, not to mention they can&#8217;t prove that it is real.</p>
<p><strong>Caralluma Fimbriata</strong> is an ancient Indian cactus that is supposed to suppress the appetite. There is no scientific evidence to prove this.<br />
16 other important nutrients</p>
<p>
<p>10 Mg of <strong>Garcinia Cambogia</strong> has been shown to contribute to weight loss, but this amount is not nearly enough to be effective.</p>
<p>5 Mg of <strong>Hydroxycitric Acid</strong> has been proven to cause weight loss. However, in May 9, 2009, the FDA issued a warning about taking Hydroxycut products due to the possibility of liver damage. The FDA has not confirmed which ingredients could be to blame, but it is possible that  Hydroxycitric Acid (HCA) is to blame.</p>
<h3>Healthe´ Trim Marketing</h3>
<p>The Healthe´ Trim website is typical of many diet pill websites. It contains sensationalized testimonials and very little relevant information.</p>
<p>One of the main claims by Healthe´ Trim is that if you take Healthe´ Trim diet pills you don&#8217;t have to exercise or diet in order to lose weight. However, in another part of the website they state, &#8220;When used as part of a calorie controlled diet that includes moderate exercise, Healthe´ Trim will help promote fat oxidation and power your metabolism.&#8221;<br />
You cannot even find out how much Healthe´ Trim diet pills cost until you input your personal information on the website.</p>
<h3>Healthe´ Trim Guarantee</h3>
<p>Healthe´ Trim diet pills have a 30 day guarantee from the date of delivery. While we like that you can return open bottles, 30 days simply isn&#8217;t long enough to know whether or not a product will work. We would prefer a 90 day guarantee.</p>
<h3>Healthe´ Trim Cost</h3>
<p>Healthe´ Trim diet pills cost $54.95 for 60 capsules. If you take the maximum recommended of 4 capsules per day, one bottle will last 15 days. This is way too expensive for Healthe´ Trim considering it does not contain enough of the proven ingredients to be effective in causing weight loss.</p>
<h3>Healthe´ Trim Conclusion</h3>
<p>This Healthe´ Trim review finds Healthe´ Trim diet pills are simply a waste of your time and money. There is no evidence that Healthe´ Trim will actually cause weight loss. Their marketing strategies are sketchy and misleading. If you are really serious about losing weight, look for a diet pill that includes proven ingredients in the necessary amounts. Our recommended products are a great place to start looking.</p>

Although Phentramine does contain some proven ingredients, the amount of each ingredient included is not disclosed. Phentramine comes in both tablets and capsules; they contain different ingredients. This Phentramine review will focus on Phentramine capsules.</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>Phentramine Ingredients</h3>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2007/hoodia-gordonii/">Hoodia Gordonii</a> (800 mg), despite being endorsed by various celebrities, has not been proven to contribute to weight loss; it is just another fad diet pill ingredient with nothing to back it.<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/carnitine-review/">L-Carnitine</a> (25 mg) has not been proven to contribute to weight loss.<br />
L-Taurine (25 mcg) is supposed to increase energy, but research has yet to prove it.<br />
Folic acid (600 mcg) is important to health, but it does nothing for weight loss.<br />
Phentarmine proprietary blend (828 mg)<br />
<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. Phentramine capsules contain Yerba Mate but not Damiana. Thus, this Phentramine review finds the Guarana in Phentramine capsules will not cause weight loss.<br />
Yerba Mate has been shown to contribute to weight loss but only when combined with Guarana and Damiana. Phentramine capsules contain Guarana but not Damiana.<br />
Citrus Aurantium contains Synephrine, a power player when it comes to diet pill ingredients. Synephrine is a proven ingredient, but only when it is included in a high concentration. Unfortunately, Phentramine does not say the concentration of <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/synephrine-review/">Synephrine</a> it contains, so there is no way of knowing if it will be effective.<br />
 <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 or more per day. Again, Phentramine hides how much green tea is contained in the capsules.<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.<br />
Cayenne does nothing for weight loss.<br />
Korean Ginseng<br />
Gynemma Sylvestre helps control blood sugar levels, which can lead to weight loss.<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/7-keto-review/">7-Keto</a> (DHEA) causes weight loss when used in doses of 100 mg or more per day. </p>
<p>Phentramine capsules contain some of the best diet pill ingredients. However, since Phentramine fails to list how much of each ingredient is included, there is no way of knowing if there is enough to cause weight loss. Usually this means the manufacturer has included only trace amounts of the proven ingredients (because they are expensive) but does not want the customer to know this. Thus, this Phentramine review finds Phentramine capsules might cause weight loss, but it is not worth the gamble.</p>
<h3>Phentramine Cost</h3>
<p>Phentramine capsules cost $69 on the Phentramine website  for a one month supply. They want you to think you are getting a great discount off the regular price of $109. Even the $69 price is too much to pay for Phentramine capsules. There is a possibility that Phentramine capsules will work, but $69 is a lot to pay for a possibility.</p>
<h3>Phentramine Guarantee</h3>
<p>The Phentramine website says Phentramine is &#8220;100% Quality Satisfaction Guaranteed&#8221;. This is very misleading because the fine print says:<br />
&#8220;There are NO Refunds after an order has been shipped. This is non-negotiable and indisputable within the terms and agreement accepted before final purchase&#8221; (website).<br />
Thus, they are misleading people into thinking they can get a refund when the truth is hidden in the fine print.</p>
<h3>Phentramine Conclusion</h3>
<p>This Phentramine review finds that Phentramine capsules contain some proven ingredients. However, the amounts of these ingredients remain hidden, making it impossible to know if Phentramine capsules will actually cause weight loss. This, combined with the misleading guarantee, keeps us from recommending Phentramine capsules.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.criticalorie.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/cacticurve.jpg" alt="cacticurve" title="cacticurve" width="129" height="129" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-980" />
<p>CactiCurve claims to be the &#8220;fastest acting appetite control supplement available&#8221; (website). This CactiCurve review explores the ingredients contained in CactiCurve diet pills and explains the guarantee (or lack of guarantee) offered by CactiCurve. The long and short of it is CactiCurve will do nothing fir weight loss. </p>
<h3>CactiCurve Ingredients</h3>
<p>The following are the ingredients found in CactiCurve (according to their website):</p>
<p>Slimaluma (200 mg), also known as Caralluma fibriata, is a supposed appetite suppressant. Unfortunately, research has yet to prove this.<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/neopuntia-review/">NeOpuntia</a> (200 mg) is a fiber that binds with fat, which causes weight loss. However, you have to take 1.6 grams of NeOpuntia per day for it to be effective. Therefore, this CactiCurve review finds there is not enough NeOpuntia in CactiCurve diet pills to cause weight loss.<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2007/hoodia-gordonii/">Hoodia Gordonii</a> (200 mg) is just another gimmicky diet pill ingredient. Although various celebrities and television shows have endorsed hoodia gordonii, the science does NOT back it up. Research has not proven that hoodia gordonii does anything for weight loss.<br />
<br/></p>
<p>The CactiCurve website claims CactiCurve contains a &#8220;one-of-a-kind blend.&#8221; The truth is that you can find this ingredient combination in several different diet pills.<br />
Don&#8217;t be fooled by the lofty claims made about CactiCurve diet pills; the scientific research just does not justify it. Only ONE of the ingredients in CactiCurve (NeOpuntia) has been proven to cause weight loss, and it has not been included in a high enough amount to contribute to weight loss. Thus, you can be sure CactiCurve will leave you with nothing but frustration.</p>
<h3>CactiCurve Cost</h3>
<p>CactiCurve diet pills cost $19.99 for 90 capsules (a one month supply). There is a discount for buying in bulk. Although this is an average price for a diet pill, considering there is only one proven diet pill ingredient and it is not included in a sufficient amount, any price is too much to pay for CactiCurve diet pills. If you are really serious about losing weight, look through our recommended products; they contain proven ingredients in the necessary amounts.</p>
<h3>CactiCurve Guarantee</h3>
<p>The CactiCurve website says nothing about a guarantee. We emailed the CactiCurve customer service department but did not receive a response.</p>
<h3>CactiCurve Website</h3>
<p>The CactiCurve website is very generic. It also lacks detailed information, including who manufacturers CactiCurve. There is only a customer service email; there is no phone number or mailing address listed. It is concerning when companies don&#8217;t want you to be able to contact them. It usually means their product is nothing more than a gimmick.</p>
<h3>CactiCurve Conclusion</h3>
<p>This CactiCurve review finds CactiCurve is not worth your time or money. It is impossible to contact the manufacturer, and most likely there is no guarantee for CactiCurve. Don&#8217;t try CactiCurve; it will only leave you disappointed.</p>

<p>This CactiCurve review finds CactiCurve is not worth your time or money. It is impossible to contact the manufacturer, and most likely there is no guarantee for CactiCurve. Don&#8217;t try CactiCurve; it will only leave you disappointed.</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>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>

We found there is no reason why SlimQuick Night is just for women. Also, we were unimpressed with the lack of honesty about the amount of each ingredient included in SlimQuick Night diet pills. SlimQuick Night just doesn&#8217;t cut it.</p>
<h3>SlimQuick Night Ingredients</h3>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2007/hoodia-gordonii/" >Hoodia Gordonii</a>, despite what numerous diet pill companies claim, DOES NOT contribute to weight loss.</p>
<p>Caffeine-Free <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/green-tea-review/" >Green Tea</a> will do nothing for weight loss. Caffeine has been shown to be effective in causing weight loss, but only because of the caffeine it contains.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/glucomannan-review/" >Glucomannan </a>is a dietary fiber, leaving the user feeling full and leading to weight loss. Studies have found that for Glucomannan to be effective, you have to take 2-4 grams of it per day. This SlimQuick Night review finds it is extremely unlikely that SlimQuick Night diet pills contain enough Glucomannan to cause weight loss.</p>
<p>Banaba Extract lowers blood sugar levels, often leading to weight loss. Unfortunately, SlimQuick Night hides how much Banaba it contains, making it impossible to determine if there is enough Banaba to cause weight loss.</p>
<p>Oolong Tea increases metabolism, leading to weight loss. Again, SlimQuick Night fails to disclose the amount of Oolong Tea it contains.</p>
<p>White Tea contains antioxidants, but it has NOT been proven to cause weight loss.</p>
<p>There is no reason that SlimQuick Night should be just for women. The ingredients in SlimQuick Night are included in numerous diet pills that are not specifically for women. Also, we don&#8217;t see why this is supposed to be taken at night. The green tea included in SlimQuick Night is caffeine free, but the Oolong tea does contain caffeine.</p>
<h3>SlimQuick Night Cost</h3>
<p>SlimQuick Night diet pills cost $27.99 for a one month supply. This is not especially expensive for a diet pill, but since SlimQuick Night does not list how much of each ingredient is included, any amount is too much to pay for SlimQuick Night. Spend your money on a diet pill that is honest about what it contains&#8211;one that contains proven ingredients in the necessary amounts.</p>
<h3>SlimQuick Night Refund Policy</h3>
<p>SLIMQUICK Night does have a return policy. However, the product must be ordered directly from SLIMQUICK LABORATORIES to be eligible for a refund. Returns also must be sent in within 45 days of purchase. We would prefer a 90 day window for refunds. Be sure if you use SlimQuick Night you will use the refund policy.</p>
<h3>SlimQuick Conclusion</h3>
<p>This SlimQuick review finds this is a mediocre product at best. It contains a few proven ingredients but fails to disclose how much of each is included. There is no reason that SlimQuick Night should be just for women and we can&#8217;t see why it is supposed to be used at night. This product will only leave you disappointed. Don&#8217;t bother with it.</p>

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>

<ul>
<li><span class="redbold">&#8220;Manage caloric intake to prevent overeating.</span></li>
<li><span class="redbold">Increase energy and stamina.</span></li>
<li><span class="redbold">Ideal for low carb dieting.&#8221; (website)</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span class="bodytext">This Vanquish review will reveal the truth behind the ingredients contained in Vanquish diet pills and help you see that there is no real proof that Vanquish will cause any weight loss at all.<br />
</span></p>
<h3>Vanquish Ingredients</h3>
<p>Pyridoxine HCI (3 mg) is simply Vitamin B6. It is important to a healthy lifestyle, but it does not contribute to weight loss.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2007/hoodia-gordonii/" >Hoodia Gordonii </a>(250 mg) does nothing for weight loss. Don&#8217;t be fooled by the celebrity endorsements and lofty claims made about hoodia. There is no scientific evidence that it contributes to weight loss.</p>
<p>Griffonia Simplicifolia Seed Extract (50 mg) supposedly helps the body produce serotonin, which helps transmit signals to the brain. There is no proof that Griffonia Simplicifolia contributes to weight loss.</p>
<p><span class="bodytext">The Vanquish website claims, &#8220;Vanquish contains revolutionary and novel ingredients that are known to possess appetite controlling properties while being natural and safe at the same time.&#8221; There is no truth behind this claim. The ingredients in Vanquish are backed only by opinion; scientific research has not proven them.<br />
</span></p>
<p>This Vanquish review finds there are NO proven ingredients in Vanquish diet pills. Don&#8217;t waste your time with this product; it will only leave you disappointed. Instead, look for a diet pill that contains clinically proven ingredients in correct amounts.</p>
<h3>Vanquish Price</h3>
<p>Vanquish diet pills cost $32.95 for 60 capsules. If you take the maximum recommended dose of 8 capsules per day, one bottle will last about a week. This is WAY too expensive for this product. There is no reason to believe Vanquish will do anything for weight loss; the science just doesn&#8217;t back it up. Any amount would be too much to pay for Vanquish.</p>
<h3>Vanquish Return Policy</h3>
<p>Vanquish does offer a 30 day money back guarantee. However, to get a refund, the product must have been purchased from the SAN Nutrition (manufacturer of Vanquish diet pills) website or their customer service phone number. If you choose to purchase Vanquish from another source you will have to check into their refund policy to receive a refund.</p>
<h3>Vanquish Marketing (or lack thereof)</h3>
<p>I was quite surprised by the SAN Nutrition website. Unlike nearly every other diet pill company out there, SAN Nutrition does not use testimonials or unbelievable before and after photos to promote their products. Usually testimonials and photos are fabricated and carry little weight with us. It was refreshing not to have to wade through unbelievable marketing. However, SAN Nutrition does not employ any other marketing tactics. Their website leaves much to be desired.</p>
<h3>Vanquish Conclusion</h3>
<p>Vanquish is simply a waste of money. There is not even one clinically proven ingredient included in Vanquish diet pills. This Vanquish review recommends looking elsewhere for a diet pill. Find one that contains proven ingredients in the necessary amounts. Read through the &#8220;Diet Pill Ingredients&#8221; section of our website to find out which ingredients are best for weight loss.</p>
