Lipo 6 Review

      With summer fiercely on it’s way, people are reaching for diet pills as a way to give them faster results.  Lipo 6 is one of the most advertised products out there.  So of course, one of my clients purchased this pill and began asking questions. 

     When I looked at the pill I was amazed at the genius marketing strategy of the company.  The capsule had pink fluid; inside the fluid was another tiny pill floating around.  This was to further their claim about their time release formula. 

     After searching online at one of my favorite sites “Diet Blog Talk;” I found the overall rating to be poor.  The general consensus was that the product did increase their overall energy however, due to the caffeine, people struggled with irregular sleeping patterns.  Many also reported that they didn’t lose weight (as the product had claimed). 

For the purpose of this review, we will focus on the original Lipo-6® formula. Though, as mentioned, all formulas are quite similar, and they are all rather high in stimulants as well.According to the company website, Lipo-6® contains some of the following ingredients: Synephrine, Guggulsterones, Yohimbe, Caffeine and Bioperine. There are also several filler ingredients that are clearly listed online for consumer review.

Ingredients in Focus

Overall, we find this formula contains fairly standard ingredients that are found in weight loss supplements on the market. As mentioned, this formula contains a stimulant in the form of Caffeine. It appears that Caffeine derivatives are popular because they are rumored to increase energy levels, enhance fat burning and even suppress the appetite. While Caffeine is known as a temporary energy booster, its effect on weight loss has yet to be proven to be significant.

Website

The company website for this supplement posts a number of testimonials and before and after photos from past users of Lipo-6®. Surprisingly, many of the people displayed in the “after” photos do not closely resemble the people in the “before” pictures upon close inspection.

Positives

• Company website posted • Complete ingredient list is shared online

Negatives

• Quite expensive
• Does not contain Hoodia
• Formula is rather high in stimulants
• Product has received low consumer ratings
• Company pushes several different versions on consumers
• No cited research at time of review (source)

 

      In a lot of cases, diet pills can rob you of the satisfaction of getting the results on your own.  Your motivation, your energy, your persistence is what actually got you to your goal.  Take all the credit and ditch the pills.
