Ghreleptin diet pills supposedly stops cravings and &#8220;normalizes&#8221; leptin and ghrelin hormone levels. These hormones are &#8220;the single biggest factors of body fat levels&#8221; (Ghreleptin website). Ghreleptin diet pills make very lofty claims including &#8220;Lose 35 pounds, and keep it off for good!&#8221; They also claim the average person loses 12 pounds per month when taking Ghreleptin. This Ghreleptin review will test the validity of these claims and help you decide if it is worth taking.</p>
<h3>What are the ingredients in Ghreleptin diet pills?</h3>
<p>The following is the ingredient list for Ghreleptin, as listed on their website<br />
Supplement Facts<br />
Servings: 60<br />
Serving Size 2 Capsules<br />
Ingredients:<br />
Leptin Activating Blend<br />
Guarana Fruit<br />
Acai<br />
Bitter Orange<br />
Noni<br />
Mangosteen<br />
Wolfberry<br />
Pomegranate<br />
Bitter Melon<br />
Raspberry Ketones<br />
Grapeseed</p>
<p>Ghrelin Deactivating Blend<br />
Spinach Extract<br />
Broccoli Extract<br />
Garlic 100:1<br />
Celery Seed Extract<br />
Carrot extract<br />
Wheat Grass Extract<br />
Asparagus Extract<br />
Tomato Extract<br />
Shiitake Mushroom<br />
Mustard Seed Extract<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/guarana-yeba-mate-and-damiana-gyd-review/" >Guarana </a>contains caffeine, which has been proven to increase metabolism.<br />
<a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/synephrine-review/" >Synephrine </a>can be found in the citrus aurantium fruit, also known as bitter orange.</p>
<p>Is Synephrine effective? One study performed in December of 2007 looked at the lipolysis (fat loss) effects of Satsuma mandarin orange (Citrus unshu Mark) peel on the fat cells of rats (I know, it’s always rats).  A high concentration of Synephrine was present in the peel and lipoloysis effects were present. The overall conclusion:</p>
<p>These results suggest that the segment wall, an edible fraction, from Satsuma mandarin orange might be useful as a functional food, especially as a fat-reducing material.<br />
Punicic acid is derived from pomegranate seed oil. It has been proven to help eliminate fat cells (see the study abstract here). <a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12396127">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12396127</a></p>
<p>Studies show <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/raspberry-ketone-review-effectiveness-of-raspberry-ketone-in-weight-loss/" >raspberry ketones</a> induced weight loss in mice with a diet containing 2% of the total diet as raspberry ketones. No studies have been done on humans. Note: in order to take in 2% of raspberry ketones as your total diet you would have to take a ton of these Ghreleptin diet pills.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/garlic-review/" >Garlic </a>does help regulate blood sugar levels, which can aid in weight loss.</p>
<p>This Ghreleptin review has found the ingredients in Ghreleptin can contribute to weight loss if they are used in the appropriate amounts. However, Ghreleptin fails to disclose how much of each ingredient is included in the diet pills. This makes it virtually impossible to know whether the amounts are sufficient to produce positive results.</p>
<h3>How much does Ghreleptin cost?</h3>
<p>One bottle of Ghreleptin (120 capsules) will cost you $29.95. If you take the recommended maximum dose of 8 per day, one bottle will last 15 days. That makes Ghreleptin $2 per day. This is very expensive, especially for a product that does not provide adequate information about ingredient amounts.</p>
<h3>Does Ghreleptin have a money back guarantee?</h3>
<p>This is a good question. Ghreleptin can be purchased only from their official website. The website is very basic and provides extremely limited information. There are break-off websites with addresses similar to Ghreleptin. These websites have the same look of the official website, but they are run by individuals. The break-off websites claim there is a money back guarantee, but the official website has no such information.</p>
<h3>What are the side effects of Ghreleptin?</h3>
<p>The side effects of Ghreleptin include increased heart rate and increased blood pressure.</p>
<h3>Ghreleptin conclusion</h3>
<p>Ghreleptin diet pills are all hype. They have a lengthy list of ingredients. Some of these ingredients actually can contribute to weight loss. However, this Ghreleptin review finds that due to the undisclosed ingredient amounts, we cannot determine how effective this product is. We recommend using a diet pill that has been proven to be effective.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-413" title="liporexin-rx" src="http://www.criticalorie.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/liporexin-rx.jpg" alt="Liporexin RX" width="101" height="190" />Liporexin RX is a diet pill which supposedly helps fight acne as well (you may want to read our <a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/liporexin-gd-labs-review/" >Liporexin</a> review as well).  This Liporexin RX review will explore how effective this product is and if the claims made about it are legitimate.</p>
<h3>What ingredients are contained in Liporexin RX?</h3>
<p>Liporexin RX contains the following ingredients (in 1 capsule)</p>
<p><strong>Proprietary Blend 690 mg</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2008/green-tea-review/" >Green Tea Extract</a> 50%</li>
<li>Oat Fiber</li>
<li>Flaxseed Oil</li>
<li>Spinach</li>
<li>Broccoli Extract 4:1</li>
<li>Garlic Extract</li>
<li>Tomato Concentrate</li>
<li>Salmon Oil Powder</li>
<li>BlueBerry Extract</li>
<li>Red Wine 30% Extract</li>
<li><a href="http://www.criticalorie.com/2007/hoodia-gordonii/" >Hoodia Gordonii</a></li>
</ul>
<p>Green tea has been proven to contribute to weight loss. However, since it is contained in a &#8220;Proprietary Blend,&#8221; there is no way for this Liporexin RX review to determine if the amount of green tea contained is enough to be effective (with as many ingredients as are listed and a proprietary blend not cracking 700 mg, the likelihood of there being enough green tea is slim to none).</p>
<p>Oats have been shown to help lower cholesterol levels, but at a much higher dosage than what is possible.</p>
<p>Spinach, broccoli, tomatoes, and garlic are all known for their various health benefits. However, they have not been proven to contribute to weight loss &#8211; especially at such low dosages.</p>
<p>Hoodia Gordonii is simply a fad. There’s been one study published about the effects of Hoodia and I found it very interesting. Just a few caveats though: the study was done by rats, and the Hoodia extract, P57, was injected directly into the brains of said rats. MacLean, the researcher conducting the study, asserted that the Liver processed the P57 so easily that an effective (high enough) dosage would probably be impossible. I did quite a bit of digging and could not find any studies that showed Hoodia aided in weight loss — at all.</p>
<h3>How much does Liporexin RX cost?</h3>
<p>Liporexin RX diet pills cost $75.95 per bottle (60 capsules). A bottle will last 10-30 days depending on the dosage. This is extremely expensive, especially considering there is no evidence that it works. Liporexin RX can only be bought on Ebay. Discounts are offered if you buy in bulk. Don&#8217;t be tempted to buy this product; it will only disappoint.</p>
<h3>What are the side effects of Liporexin RX?</h3>
<p>The side effects of Liporexin RX include headaches, jitters, and sleeplessness.</p>
<h3>Liporexin RX Review Conclusion</h3>
<p>This Liporexin RX review finds that Liporexin RX is a diet pill banking on the Hoodia hype. They do not disclose how much of each ingredient is included, probably because they don&#8217;t want you to know. If you want a diet pill that will give you real results, look somewhere else.</p>
