<ul>
<li>&#8220;Regulate cortisol levels.</li>
<li>Decrease appetite and cravings.</li>
<li>Balance blood sugar levels&#8221; (website)</li>
</ul>
<p>This Corti-Cut review will show that there is no reason to believe any of the claims made about Corti-Cut. It is just another typical diet pill that simply wants your money.</p>
<h3>Corti-Cut Ingredients</h3>
<p>Magnolia Extract (100 mg) does not cause weight loss.</p>
<p><strong>Proprietary Herbal Blend (200 mg)</strong></p>
<p>Rhodiola Rosea supposedly makes you feel good; it does not cause weight loss.</p>
<p>Rosavins</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/green-tea-review/" >Green Tea</a> has been shown to cause weight loss. However, it has to be taken in doses of 300 mg per day or more. Corti-Cut does not say the amount of green tea it contains, but since the proprietary blend is only 200 mg, there is no way Corti-Cut contains enough green tea to be effective.</p>
<p>Camella Sinensis</p>
<p>Polyphenonols</p>
<p>Bitter Orange Peel Extract (Citrus Aurantium) 6% <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/synephrine-review/" >Synephrine </a>has been shown to contribute to weight loss. The important aspect with Synephrine is the concentration&#8211;the higher the concentration the more effective it is. With only a 6% concentration, the Synephrine in Corti-Cut will not be effective.</p>
<p>Vitamin C (60 mg) is healthy, but it does not cause weight loss.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/chromium-picolinate-review/" >Chromium </a>(50 mcg) has shown varying results in clinical studies.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/l-theanine-review/" >L-Theanine </a>(100 mg) does not cause weight loss.</p>
<p>Phospholipids (100 mg)<span style="x-small;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="x-small;"> Phosphatidylserine (soy phospholipid)</span></p>
<p><span style="x-small;"><br />
Phosphatidylcholine (soy phospholipid)</span></p>
<p>Phosphatidylethanolamine (soy phospholipid)</p>
<p>Phosphatidylinositol (soy phospholipid)</p>
<p><span style="x-small;"><strong>Essential fatty Acid Blend (20 mg)</strong><br />
Caprylic Acid</span></p>
<p><span style="x-small;">Linoleic Acid has healthy benefits but does not contribute to weight loss.<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="x-small;">Oleic Acid</span></p>
<p><span style="x-small;">Palmitic                         Acid</span></p>
<p><span style="x-small;">Stearic Acid</span></p>
<p>Don&#8217;t be impressed by this lengthy ingredient list. The only proven ingredients are green tea and synephrine, and they are not included in high enough amounts to contribute to weight loss.</p>
<h3>Corti-Cut Cost</h3>
<p>Corti-Cut diet pills cost $38.63 for 60 capsules. If you take the recommended 2 capsules per day, one bottle will last a month. This is way too expensive for Corti-Cut. It contains a couple proven ingredients, but they are not included in the necessary amounts. Spend your money on a product that actually contains proven ingredients in proven amounts.</p>
<h3>Corti-Cut Guarantee</h3>
<p>Corti-Cut is manufactured by Olympian Labs. The Olympian Labs website says nothing about a guarantee for Corti-Cut diet pills. Some retailers do offer their own guarantees. We are skeptical of any company that does not guarantee their product&#8211;just one more reason not to buy Corti-Cut.</p>
<h3>Corti-Cut Conclusion</h3>
<p>This Corti-Cut review finds Corti-Cut is not the product for you. It contains only two proven ingredients, and they are not included in the necessary amounts. There is no manufacturer&#8217;s guarantee for Corti-Cut diet pills. To get real weight loss results, try one of our recommended products; they contain proven ingredients in proven amounts.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/extreme_acai_berry.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-755" title="extreme_acai_berry" src="http://www.criticalorie.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/extreme_acai_berry.jpg" alt="" width="88" height="153" /></a>Extreme Acai Berry is a diet pill that will do nothing for you. They employ deceptive and unethical practices to trick people into taking Extreme Acai Berry diet pills. This Extreme Acai Berry review divulges the bad and ugly (since there is no good) truth about Extreme Acai Berry in hopes that you will stay away from this product.</p>
<h3>Extreme Acai Berry Ingredients</h3>
<p>Sodium</p>
<p>Magnesium</p>
<p>Silicone dioxide</p>
<p>Calcium sulfate</p>
<p>Stearic acid</p>
<p>Dicalcium phosphate</p>
<p>None of the listed ingredients contribute to weight loss in any way. One thing I found interesting was that the acai berry was not included in the ingredient list. When I asked the customer service representative about this, he told me that was all the information he had. I would hope acai berry would be included in a product called Extreme Acai Berry, but given the rest of the information about this product, I would not be surprised if it is not included.</p>
<p>It doesn&#8217;t matter how many celebrities endorse Extreme Acai Berry diet pills; there is NO scientific evidence that they will do anything to cause weight loss. Stay away from this product. It is a scam.</p>
<h3>Extreme Acai Berry Free Trial</h3>
<p>Extreme Acai Berry has a 14 day free trial. In fact, that is the only way to purchase Extreme Acai Berry. Here is the catch: If you do not cancel the trial by the 14th day, you are enrolled in autoship (they automatically ship more product every month) and your credit card is charged $89.31 each month. Not only is this a ripoff, it is quite deceptive. People do not know what they are getting into (which is probably why Extreme Acai Berry works this way&#8211;they get more money).</p>
<h3>Extreme Acai Berry Customer Service and Privacy Policy</h3>
<p>I had several questions about Extreme Acai Berry that were not answered by their website, so I thought I could simply call their customer service line. What I didn&#8217;t realize was that the customer service number is well hidden on the Extreme Acai Berry website. The only phone number listed on the website is the one for canceling orders, and if you call that phone number they cannot provide any information on the actual product. Not only that, they do not have a toll-free number for customer service; it is a long distance number. When I finally got through to customer service, the representative was confused when I asked for a list of ingredients for Extreme Acai Berry. He spoke very broken English and I had to ask him to repeat himself or spell the ingredients for me. It is hard for me to appreciate customer service if they cannot communicate with me.</p>
<p>While holding for customer service for what seemed like forever (over 12 minutes), I read through the Extreme Acai Berry Privacy Policy on their website. They admittedly sell personal information to other companies. This is very unnerving to me. I do not appreciate my information being given to unauthorized parties, and I doubt that most customers realize they could be essentially giving their personal information to countless companies.</p>
<p>There is no guarantee with Extreme Acai Berry. You cannot get a refund. Don&#8217;t bother with this product.</p>
<h3>Extreme Acai Berry Conclusion</h3>
<p>This Extreme Acai Berry review finds Extreme Acai Berry is nothing more than a scam. There are no proven ingredients, and the company is doing everything they can to deceive customers. If you are really serious about losing weight, look for a diet pill with proven ingredients in proven amounts, one that is backed by an honest company.</p>
