Hydroxycut has played a major role in the supplement world. Their marketing strategies have been so flexible that its managed to target multiple age groups that have spanned decades. Now, they are targeting the Sensa crowd by releasing hydroxycut sprinkles. Due to the huge success of Sensa it’s no wonder they have released this pill-less product. The big question is, will it be as good, better, or the next supplement at the dollar store.
Ingredients in Hydroxycut Sprinkles
Since the ban of ephedra back in 2009, hydroxycut has been trying very hard to keep their products safe. The reformulation of their products was necessary to keep them out of the news and on the shelves. You’ll be glad to know that Hydroxycut Sprinkles are caffeine free. Their claim to fame has always been their mixture lady’s mantle, wild olive, cumin, and wild mint to promote weight loss.
Lady’s Mantle Extract. Lady’s mantle is an antiduretic and anti-inflammatory herb popularly used to stimulate healing, making it an effective solution for injuries and ulcers.
Wild Olive Leaf Extract. Olive contains fatty acids which may decrease cholesterol and reduce inflammation. Animal studies suggests it reverses chronic inflammation and oxidative stress that induces cardiovascular disease.
Komijin Extract. More commonly known as cumin or cuminum, komijin is primarily known as a digestive aid. Many take cumin to treat diarrhea, colic, bowel spasms, and gas. It stimulates the secretion of digestive enzymes in the stomach, which in turn improves overall digestion. Animal studies imply cuminum may enhance memory and combat stress.
Wild Mint Extract. Wild mint is a flavorful and aromatic herb commonly used to relieve coughs, colds, stomach cramps, indigestion, and headaches. Wild mint contains several flavonoids which boost immunity and protect cells against damage (source).
While these ingredients alone have no real affect on metabolism and weight loss, Hydroxycut has used them for years in their formulas. This is due to the fact that mixing these four ingredients has created promising affects.
Even though these ingredients can be found in ALL of the hydroxycut formulas, the amounts vary. The PRO formula has a higher concentration. These packages are 155mg which may or may not be enough to induce results.
