SuperCuts 3 Review

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

Supercuts 3

What is Supercuts 3?

According to the manufactures, Supercuts 3 contains a “maximum potency formula engineered to help optimize fat metabolism, fat emulsification, fat burning, and enhance lean mass.” Where have you been all my life Supercuts? Unfortunately it is not uncommon in the weight loss supplement business for a company to make false claims. So let’s investigate Supercuts 3.

Ingredients In Supercuts 3

Most of the ingredients in Supercuts 3 are ordinary weight loss ingredients. There is nothing revolutionary by any mean in Super Cuts. An effective ingredient in Super Cuts 3 is green tea.

Green Tea is a powerful antioxidant, appetite suppressant and stimulant all wrapped up in one.  With green tea, something you always have to look for is the ratio of EGCG  (the active ingredient in green tea) in the tea. If it is low then you are getting some cheap tea. Sadly, Supercuts 3 doesn’t disclose the amount of EGCG’s in their green tea so we are left to wonder.

The rest of the ingredients in Supercuts 3 are nothing to write home about. Just very average ingredients. Something missing from Supercuts 3 is an effective fat burner and an appetite suppressor.

Price of Supercuts 3

Supercuts 3 is fairly cheap and can be found for as low as $12. This still might be overpriced considering that it doesn’t contain a fat burner or an appetite suppressor.

Supercuts 3 Pros

  • Contains Green Tea
  • Cheap

Supercuts 3 Cons

  • No Fat Burners
  • A lot of Hype
  • No Appetite Suppressors
  • No Guarantees

Supecuts 3 Conclusion

Supercuts 3 is a very average weight loss supplement. If you are serious about weight loss this might not be the product for you.

 

 


Sureslim Review

Sureslim

Can Sureslim Help You Lose Weight?

Sureslim is a program similar to Jenny Craig or Weight Watchers. The knock on these programs was that they was not a lot of bang for your buck. Is Surelim any different? Let’s take a closer look.

What is the Cost of Sureslim?

The Sureslim program is by no means cheap. The program starts out with an $800 dollar blood test. That is a whole lot of dough just to get your blood analyzed.  Once they get the results of the blood test, they pass the information on to a Sureslim consultant who provides a meal plan. From what we have gathered from reading reviews from Sureslim customers is that there is not a whole lot of science behind this. The Sureslim consultants are not doctors by any stretch of the imagination.

Not A Weight Loss Supplements

Sureslim doesn’t recommend supplements, just dieting. This approach is hard for most people because most supplements have things to curb appetites and help burn fat. When there are no supplements, it is hard to be disciplined.

Headquartered in the UK

Another potential problem for people interested in Sureslim in the United States is that it is based in the UK and everything takes place there. You won’t be able to get the hands on treatment.

Sureslim Pros

  • You’ll have a Sureslim Consultant

Sureslim Cons

  • Very Expensive
  • No Fat Burners
  • Located Overseas
  • No Appetite Suppressors

Sureslim Conclusion

Because of the high cost and lack of weight loss supplements to help lose weight, we do not recommend Sureslim. The top diet pills ranked below excelled in several categories including: efficacy (does it work!), safety, company reputation, return policies and guarantees, and price.

 

 

Syntrax Fyre Review

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

Syntrax Fyre

Can Syntrax Fyre Help You Lose Weight?

Syntrax Fyre claims to be an fat burner that will help you lose weight without any side effects. That is fine and dandy but we expect that from any fat burner we buy. Let’s take a closer look at the Fyre.

Ingredients in Syntrax Fyre

Syntrax Fyre is comprised of a proprietary blend.  This makes it hard to really evaluate the effectiveness of a weight loss supplement because the amounts of each ingredient are unknown. Looking past that, let’s look at what is in Syntrax Fyre.

There is not a lot that distinguishes the ingredients in Syntrax Fyre from the competition. There are a few ingredients we like such as forslean, green tea, and caffeine, but the other ingredients in Syntrax Fyre are nothing to write home about.

Forslean originates from India and studies have shown that it helps our bodies metabolize fat. Green tea is a win-win ingredient. It is a powerful anti-oxidant without any side effects. While caffeine has been shown to greatly enhance not only our mental alertness but also our physical outputs.

What we feel Syntrax Fyre is missing is a powerful appetite suppressor.

Side Effects of Syntrax Fyre

Users of Syntrax Fyre have complained of elevated heart rate and anxiety.

No Satisfaction or Money Back Guarantees

Unfortunately we were unable to find any satisfaction or money back guarantees for Syntrax Fyre. This raises a red flag because it shows a lack of confidence in their product.

Cost of Syntrax Fyre

The cost of Syntrax Fyre is about 30 dollars. If you follow the directions, a bottle will last you 20 days. For a proprietary blend that doesn’t have a lot to distinguish it from the average fat burner, Syntrax Fyre is expensive.

Syntrax Fyre Pros

  • Contains Green Tea, Forslean, and Caffeine

Syntrax Fyre Cons

  • Is lacking an effective appetite suppression
  • Proprietary Blend
  • No Satisfaction or Money Back Guarantee
  • Expensive

Syntrax Fyre Conclusion

Syntrax Fyre is a medium of the pack weight loss supplement with nothing to distinguish it from the competition that is fairly expensive.

 

 

TestoRipped Review

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

TestoRipped Review

TestoRipped is a men’s diet pill that is designed not only to burn fat but to build muscle.  As it is a pretty potent formula, it is just for men over the age of 18.  As well, it was banned in Australia and New Zealand.  You can buy it on the official website for $50, but I have seen it a little lower in other places.

Does TestoRipped Work?

TestoRipped, in all honesty, is a pretty impressive compound.  Each pill contains the following -

  • Tribulus Terrestris - 200 mg
  • Caffeine Anhydrous - 150 mg
  • Arginine AKG - 100 mg
  • Creatine - 100 mg
  • L-Glutamine - 100 mg
  • Cinnamon extract - 50 mg
  • Eurycoma longifolia - 50 mg
  • Synephrine - 15 mg
  • Guggulsterone 15 mg
  • Yohimbine - 1.5 mg

These ingredients work together to boost testosterone levels (Tribulus Terrestris, Arginine, Eurycoma Longifolia) and stimulate the thyroid (guggulsterones).  The formula also seriously boosts your metabolism with caffeine, synephrine, and cinnamon.  It also aims to help aid muscle growth with glutamine and can improve sexual performance with yohimbine.  This is quite the formula.  I will say that the synephrine and guggulsterone concentration is a little weak, but it is good to see creatine included here to help improve physical performance.

TestoRipped Pros

  • Solid formula
  • Dual Action (muscle growth/fat loss)

TestoRipped Cons

  • Strong enough to be banned in Australia

TestoRipped Conclusion

At first I thought this product might be a little overpriced, but it appears that the ingredients pretty much back up the price.  The evidence on tribulus terrestris is a little weak, but the rest of the ingredients have more research behind them.  Apparently it is a safe and reliable product as it is legal in the U.S.  A pretty good choice for the guy looking to bulk up and get cut at the same time.

Lowest TestoRipped Price

Sometimes a lower price can be found on eBay.com

Tetrazene ES-50 Review

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

Tetrazene ES-50

What is Tetrazene ES-50?

Tetrazene ES-50 is one of three products from the Tetrazene series. The manufactures have claimed that “years of research” have gone into researching Tetrazene ES-50. Let’s take a closer look at what their “years of research” have came up.

Ingredients in Tetrazene ES-50

Like all the products in the Tetrazene series, Tetrazene ES-50 is glucomannan-based. Glucomannan has been touted as being an appetite suppressor. Studies on this claim have been mixed and most glucomannan-based products are full with numerous negative reviews.

There are a few ingredients we like in Tetrazene ES-50 such as green tea and caffeine. Green tea has been proven to be an effective appetite suppressant while caffeine is a great source of energy and helps with our metabolisms. Unfortunately, we aren’t sure how much of each ingredient is contained in Tetrazene ES-50 because it is comprised of a proprietary blend.

What Tetrazene ES-50 is missing is an effective fat burner.

Tetrazene’s Deceptive Past

Tetrazene was recently fined for one of its other products for deceptive advertising.This makes it very hard to trust any of the claims or even the safety of any products made by Tetrazene.

No Satisfaction or Money Back Guarantees

We weren’t able to find any satisfaction or money back guarantees for Tetrazene ES-50. This shows a lack of confidence of Tetrazene in their product.

Side Effects of Tetrazene ES-50

Users of Tetrazene ES-50 have complained of side effects such as sleeplessness and anxiety.

Pricing of Tetrazene ES-50

The average price of Tetrazene ES-50 that we found on the internet was about $40. For a product missing an effective fat burner, this is very expensive.

Tetrazene Pros

  • Contains green tea and caffeine

Tetrazene Cons

  • Doesn’t contain an effective fat burner
  • Expensive
  • No Satisfaction or Money Back Guarantee
  • Company has been involved in deceptive advertising

Tetrazene Conclusion

The bright spots of Tetrazene ES-50 are few and far between. We don’t recommend Tetrazene ES-50.

 

 

Tetrazene Extreme Review

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

Tetrazene Extreme

 Is Tetrazene Extreme an effective weight loss supplement?
Tetrazene Extreme claims to be a “new physique transformational catalyst.” But so does every other weight loss supplement. Does Tetrazene Extreme live up to its claims? Let’s take a closer look.

A Closer Look at Tetrazene Extreme
Tetrazene Extreme is one among many from the Tetrazene family. You can look at reviews for the other Tetrazene products on this website. It is advertised for those who want extreme weight loss.

Fined by the FTC
One of the other members in the Tetrazene family, Xenadrine EFX, was recently fined by the FTC for deceptive advertisting.This makes it very hard to trust any of the claims or even the safety of any products made by Tetrazene.

Ingredients in Tetrazene Extreme
Like all of the other Tetrazene products, Tetrazene Extreme is loaded with Glucomannan. Glucomannan is a purported appetite suppressor. Research on Glucomannan has garnered mixed reviews.

Unfortuantely, Tetrazene Extreme is comprised of a proprietary blend so we don’t how much of each ingredient is contained. We were pleased to find that caffeine and green tea are a part of the ingredient mix for Tetrazene Extreme. Caffeine, when taken in the right dosage has been shown to increase both physical and mental outputs. Green tea is a powerful anti-oxidant.

The rest of the ingredients in Tetrazene Extreme are nothing special. It is definitely full with stimulants, which creates health concerns.

Side Effects of Tetrazene Extreme
Users have complained of numerous side effects with Tetrazene Extreme. They include: anxiety, headaches, frequent urination, and stomachaches.

Tetrazene Extreme Pros

  • Contains Green Tea and Caffeine

Tetrazene Extreme Cons

  • Company has been fined for false advertising
  • Doesn’t contain an effective fat burner
  • Numerous Side Effects
  • No Satisfaction or Money Back Guarantees

Tetrazene Extreme Conclusion
The cons greatly outweigh the pros with Tetrazene Extreme.  Because of this, we don’t recommend Tetrazene Extreme.

 

 

Tetrazene KGM-90

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

Tetrazene KGM-90

What is Tetrazene KGM-90?

Tetrazene KGM-90 is the latest from the Tetrazene series of products. If you want to look at reviews for the other Tetrazne products they are on this website. Tetrazene KGM-90 differs from other Tetrazene products in that it is stimulant free.

Ingredients in Tetrazene KGM-90

Like all of the Tetrazene products, Tetrazene KGM-90 is glucomannan based. Glucomannan is a good appetite suppressor.  Glucomannan is safe, natural and affordable. It is a natural fiber that expands in your stomach to make you feel full. It also promotes good colon health.

No Satisfaction or Money Back Guarantees

With Tetrazene KGM-90 there are no money back or satisfaction guarantees.

Tetrazene KGM-90 Pros

  • Glucomannan may help with appetite suppression

Tetrazene KGM-90 Cons

  • No Satisfaction or Money Back Guarantee
  • Expensive ($45)

Tetrazene KGM-90 Conclusion

There is not a lot we don’t like about Tetrazene KGM-90, it is safe, contains a good appetite suppressant that is safe and effective. Our concerns are about the cost and the lack of a money back guarantee.

The Burn Review

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

The Burn

What is The Burn?

The Burn is a weight loss supplement that is designed for women.  These gender specific weight loss supplements have been all the rage on the market lately but few have proven to be effective. Can The Burn help you lose weight? Let’s take a closer look.

Ingredients in The Burn

The ingredient mix for The Burn is pretty standard for the market. There is nothing new or revolutionary by any means in the Burn. Looking at the ingredients in The Burn, we weren’t able to tell that The Burn is made especially for women, there are no ingredients that are gender specific. The Burn contains a few good ingredients such as synephrine and caffeine.

Synephrine acts in virtually the same way as the now banned Ephedra but without the side effects. It is a proven fat burner.

Caffeine has long been a staple in weight loss supplements as it should be. It has been shown to raise mental and physical outputs.

What is missing in The Burn is an effective appetite suppressor. 

Side Effects of The Burn

Users of The Burn have complained of side effects such as insomnia, anxiety, and nausea.

Price of The Burn

The retail price of The Burn is $50. This is very expensive for a weight loss supplement that is the caliber of The Burn.

The Burn Pros

  • Contains Caffeine and Synephrine

The Burn Cons

  • No Appetite Suppressors
  • Expensive
  • Possible Side Effects

The Burn Conclusion

Although The Burn contains some quality ingredients, it doesn’t contain enough of them. We do not recommend The Burn.

 

Thermoloid Review

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

Thermoloid Review

What is Thermoloid?

According to the makers, “Thermoloid is the all in one solution for fat loss.” While I can’t say that I haven’t heard similar claims from other weight loss supplement companies, let’s take a closer look at Thermoloid.
Ingredients in Thermoloid

Looking over the ingredients in Thermoloid, there is nothing new or revolutionary by any means. There are a few ingredients we like such as synephrine and green tea.

Synephrine is like Ephedra without the side effects. It is a great fat burner. Green tea is a great anti-oxidant as well as an excellent appetite suppressor. Unfortunately, Thermoloid is comprised of a proprietary blend so we are unable to find out if they have enough of these two ingredients to help you lose weight.

The rest of the ingredients in Thermoloid are found in most cheap fat burners and are nothing to write home about.

Price of Thermoloid

The retail price of Thermoloid is $40. This is fairly expensive for a proprietary blend of Thermoloids caliber.

No Satisfaction or Money Back Guarantees

With Thermoloid there are no money back or satisfaction guarantees. This shows a lack of confidence in their product.

Thermoloid Pros

  • Contains Green Tea and Synephrine

Thermoloid Cons

  • Many Cheap Ingredients
  • Expensive
  • No Satisfaction or Money Back Guarantees

Thermoloid Conclusion

Thermoloid is lacking in high quality ingredients and is overpriced. We don’t recommend Thermoloid.

 

 

Thincinerator Review

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

thincinerator-bottle.jpg


Thincinerator Review

Thincinerator is a diet pill designed specifically for women. In fact, it claims to be the “Strongest Female Fat Burner” and “Clinically proven to cut body fat in women”. These are bold claims, but with every diet pill shouting as loud, who are we to take seriously?

Does Thincinerator Work?

To back up its claims and to help you burn fat, this product first includes a heft combination of caffeine and green tea, totaling about 300 mg of caffeine in varying forms. This combination is well known to be a powerful metabolic booster that helps you lose extra fat. Be careful if you are sensitive to caffeine.

The less concentrated ingredients include xanthinol nicotinate, cayenne, ginger, kelp, raspberry ketones, synephrine, guggul, and bioperine. This combination provides qualities of everything from increased metabolism to improved chemical absorption and improved mental performance. The truth is I don’t really see anything to say that this is only for women, but in any case it is a pretty well-rounded formula and should provide some results.

Thincinerator Pros

  • Potent formula
  • Money-back guarantee

Thincinerator Cons

  • Not necessarily “just for women”
  • A lot of caffeine for a sensitive person

Thincinerator Conclusion

It took a bit of research to understand where this product was coming from. Ultimately it looks like it may not live up to its claims completely, but it is nonetheless a surprisingly solid diet pill. I don’t see any reason why you shouldn’t see some results with Thincinerator.
