Speed V2 is a diet pill that “gives an amazing thermogenic boost in and out of the gym” (website). This Speed V2 review details the ingredients in Speed V2 and reveals the truth about Speed V2–there is no proof that Speed V2 diet pills work and the manufacturer doesn’t stand behind this product to offer customers a guarantee.

Speed V2 Ingredients

Speed Complex 721 mg
Phenylethylamine is a mood enhancing ingredient. It does not cause weight loss.
Theobromine is used as a diuretic; it does not contribute to weight loss.
Evodia Fruit has been shown to cause weight loss in mice, but no human research has been done.
Quercetin
Cissus Quadrangularis has been shown to contribute to weight loss when combined with other ingredients, but it has not been studied on its own.
Bitter Orange (standardized for Synephrine) Synephrine is a clinically proven diet pill ingredient. However, when looking at Synephrine, the important thing to note is the concentration–the higher the better. Since Speed 2 fails to list the concentration of Synephrine it contains, there is no way for this Speed V2 Review to determine if the Bitter Orange/Synephrine in Speed V2 diet pills is enough to contribute to weight loss.
Geranium Oil Extract
Piperine allows the body to absorb more nutrients. However, there is no research to prove that Piperine actually contributes to weight loss (although there is no research showing the opposite, either.
B12 is important to a healthy lifestyle, but it does not cause weight loss.
You will notice Speed V2 diet pills contain only ONE proven diet pill ingredient (Bitter Orange/Synephrine), and there is no way of knowing the concentration included in Speed V2.

Speed V2 Price

You can find Speed V2 diet pills online for as little as $26.99 for 90 capsules. If you take the recommended 3 capsules per day, one bottle will last about a month. Although this is about average for a diet pill, there is no proof that Speed V2 actually works, so any amount is too much to pay for Speed V2.

Speed V2 Guarantee

There is NO manufacturer’s guarantee for Speed V2. The Speed V2 website says the following:

“This site and the materials and products on this site are provided “as is” and without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied.” Why would anyone want to buy a product that the manufacturer doesn’t have enough faith to back up? Don’t bother with Speed V2; it’s not worth your time or money.

Speed V2 Affiliate Program

Speed V2 has an “Affiliate Program”. That is a fancy way of saying it is multi-level marketing (a pyramid scheme). In other words, if you get other people to sign up to buy Speed V2 you get commission. Any company that has to use these practices should be questioned. There is no reason to believe Speed V2 will cause weight loss, so why would you con people into buying it?

Speed V2 Conclusion

This Speed V2 review finds there is no reason to even think about buying Speed V2. There is no reason to believe it will actually cause weight loss, so don’t waste your money on it.

Power Thin Phase II Ingredients

Advantra Z contains synephrine, a clinically proven diet pill ingredient. The concentration of synephrine determines how effective it will be–the higher the concentration the more effective it is. Unfortunately, Power Thin Phase II fails to list the concentration of synephrine it contains.

Caffeine has been shown to contribute to weight loss. Since Power Thin Phase II diet pills do not say how much caffeine they contain, it is impossible for this Power Thin Phase II review to determine if the caffeine included will be effective.

Green tea is another proven weight loss ingredient. Again, Power Thin Phase II hides the amount of green tea it contains, so there is no way of knowing if it will be effective.

Cocoa seed extract is a feel good ingredient. It does not contribute to weight loss.

Maca

Yerba Mate has been shown to contribute to weight loss when combined with Damiana and Guarana. However, Power Thin Phase II does not contain Damiana or Guarana.

Quercetin

Vinpocetine is used to treat memory problems related to age. It does not cause weight loss.

Yohimbine does contribute to weight loss, but Power Thin Phase II does not list how much Yohimbine it contains.

Acetyl L-Carnitine HCL is supposed to break down fats. More research is needed to substantiate this claim.

Ginger root is used to calm the stomach; it does not cause weight loss.

Gugulipid extract is supposed to increase thyroid function. More research is needed.

L-Tyrosine has been shown to contribute to weight loss when taken in doses of 500 to 1500 mg per day. It is extremely unlikely that Power Thin Phase II diet pills contain enough Tyrosine to be effective.

White willow bark is an anti-inflammatory. It does not contribute to weight loss.

Power Thin Phase II does include several clinically proven ingredients. Unfortunately, the specific amount of each ingredient is not disclosed (usually because they include only trace amounts of these ingredients). If Power Thin Phase II included these ingredients in proven amounts, we would recommend this product, but since they do not, we recommend looking elsewhere.

Power Thin Phase II Guarantee

Power Thin Phase II has an unconditional 30 day money back guarantee. We prefer having 90 days to return a product.

Power Thin Phase II Price

Power Thin Phase II diet pills cost $39.99 for a one month supply. While this is about average for a diet pill, since Power Thin Phase II fails to reveal how much of each ingredient is included, it is too expensive.

Power Thin Phase II Marketing

The Power Thin Phase II website is filled with sensationalized testimonials and photos of models measuring their tiny waistlines. Don’t be impressed by either one–they are probably all fabricated.

Power Thin Phase II Conclusion

This Power Thin Phase II review finds Power Thin Phase II does include several clinically proven diet pill ingredients. Unfortunately, Power Thin Phase II fails to list how much of each ingredient it includes. Thus, we recommend finding a diet pill that is honest about its ingredients–one that includes proven ingredients in proven amounts.

Diet Fuel Ingredients

Guarana Seed Extract 800 mg has been proven to contribute to weight loss, but ONLY when combined with Yerba Mate and Damiana. Diet Fuel does not contain either Yerba Mate or Damiana.
Thermogenic Energy Enhancing Complex 685 mg
Citrus Aurantium contains Synephrine, which has been shown to contribute to weight loss. Unfortunately, Diet Fuel includes Citrus Aurantium in a proprietary blend, so it is impossible for this Diet Fuel review to determine if there is enough Citrus Aurantium in Diet Fuel to be effective.
St. John’s Wort has healthy benefits, but it has not been shown to contribute to weight loss.
L-Phenylalanine is a proven appetite suppressant. Diet Fuel does not list the amount of L-Phenylalanine included, so it is impossible to know if it is enough to contribute to weight loss.
Green Tea is a diet pill ingredient which has been proven to contribute to weight loss by increasing metabolic rate.
Once again, Diet Fuel fails to list how much green tea it contains so there is no way to tell if there is enough green tea to contribute to weight loss.
Quercetin has many uses in promoting good health, but it has not been shown to contribute to weight loss.
Citrus Bioflavanoid Complex
Ginger Root eases nausea by reducing stomach acid.
Cayenne Fruit

Diet Fuel does contain several clinically proven ingredients. However, there is no list of how much of each ingredient is included, probably because they include a very small amount of each ingredient.

Diet Fuel Customer Service and Guarantee

Diet Fuel is made by Twinlab. The Twinlab website contains very little information about Diet Fuel diet pills so I emailed the Twinlab customer service and received a response within about an hour. The email actually answered my questions instead of referring me to a FAQ list. The email did give me a different website with more in-depth information about Diet Fuel. It would have been nice if there at least been a link from the main Twinlab website.

The email clarified that Twinlab does not provide a guarantee for their products. They leave that up to those selling Diet Fuel diet pills (Twinlab does not sell Diet Fuel to consumers, only to distributors).

Diet Fuel Cost

You can purchase Diet Fuel diet pills for as low as $12.97 for 60 capsules. If you take the recommended 6 capsules per day, one bottle will last 10 days. In other words, you will be paying $38.91 per month. This is not very expensive for a diet pill, but considering Diet Fuel does not list the amount of any of the clinically proven ingredients, any amount is too much to pay for Diet Fuel.

Diet Fuel Side Effects

Side effects of Diet Fuel diet pills include increased heart rate, chills, jitters, and sleeplessness.

Diet Fuel Conclusion

This Diet Fuel review finds that Diet Fuel is a typical diet pill–not worth your money. Diet Fuel
does include some great, clinically proven ingredients, but they fail to disclose how much of each of these ingredients is included. The lack of guarantee by the manufacturer is concerning. Don’t take the gamble; use a product that is honest about how much of each ingredient they include, one that includes proven ingredients in proven amounts.

Green tea is a clinically proven ingredient which contributes to weight loss.  Unfortunately there is no disclosure as to how much Green Tea is included (it matters).

Caffeine has been shown to increase metabolic rate, leading to weight loss. However, SLIMQUICK extreme does not disclose how much caffeine is included in this product.

Hoodia is an overhyped ingredient that is surging through the diet pill industry. You should know that there is NO scientific evidence to show that Hoodia contributes to weight loss.

Studies show raspberry ketones induced weight loss in mice with a diet containing 2% of the total diet as raspberry ketones. No studies have been done on humans. Note: in order to take in 2% of raspberry ketones as your total diet you would have to take a ton (metaphorically) of these SLIMQUICK extreme diet pills. ((http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15862604))

Octopamine is closely related to noradrenaline, with effects akin to dopamine. It has become very popular on the internet as a slimming aid because octopamine “may mobilize the release of fat from adipocytes (fat cells).” The catch though, is that the fat released is promptly absorbed by other cells. There is no research to suggest that Octopamine is an effective weight loss agent.

Gugglesterones are supposed to increase thyroid function to promote weight loss. However, studies have had varying results.

Yohimbine comes from the bark of an African evergreen tree. It has been shown to increase fatty acid mobilization. It is also used to treat erectile dysfunction.

SlimQuick Video Review

SLIMQUICK extreme Cost

You will pay $36.99 for 120 liquid gels of SLIMQUICK extreme diet pills. If you take the recommended 6 liquid gels per day, you will be paying over $55 per month. This is too expensive for this product
considering they do not tell you how much of each ingredient is included in the formula (and there couldn’t be a lot of the effective ones — green tea and caffeine — if the entire formulation is south of 900 mg and they’ve included so many other “eye-candy” ingredients).

SLIMQUICK extreme Guarantee

SLIMQUICK extreme 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.

SLIMQUICK extreme Conclusion

This SLIMQUICK extreme review finds that this product is lacking. While they do include some proven ingredients, they fail to list amounts for all included ingredients. Look for a diet pill that includes proven ingredients in proven amounts.
