Shredz fat burner for women?

[Anonymous]

Has anyone ever tried shredz without working out? Do I have to workout for this fat burner to work? Or can I just do calorie restriction and it will still work?

Let's look at the ingredients.

SHREDZ© BURNER Made For Women USA Formula

Choline (Choline Bitartrate) – 100mg
Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid) – 20mg
Vitamin B7 (BIOTIN) – 1000mcg
SHREDZ© Proprietary Fat Burning Complex For Women – 934mg

KEY INGREDIENTS IN SHREDZ PROPRIETARY FAT BURNING COMPLEX
Alpha Lipolic Acid, Theobromine, Acetyl L-Carnitine, Synephrine HCL, Guggulsterones 99% Pure E&Z, Yohimbine HCL, Cayenne Pepper Extract, Green Tea Extract >98%, Caffeine Anhydrous

Breaking it down.
Choline - if you eat eggs you are already getting more than enough Choline , unless you have a liver disease.
Pantothenic Acid - There's no reason to take it and whatever thing the people selling it say it might be effective doesn't have enough evidence behind it.

Biotin : No.

NOW!
Moving onto the "proprietary complex".
ALA UNDERDOSED<--- the effective dose is in the range of 300-600mg , the entire "complex" is in 934mg.

Theobromine (Cocoa extract) - you're buying expensive chocolate.
L-Carnitine UNDOSED - The standard dose for L-carnitine is between 500-2,000mg.

Honestly I can go on forever.
The matter of fact is this.
What little active ingredieint in that pill it is MASSIVELY underdosed and you'll see little to no effect at all.

Do some research on the stuff before you buy it eh?

I'm not saying drugs can't help you lose weight.
IT CAN !!
BUT!!!
BUT!!

Your cycle must be in check and you must understand the mechanics of the drug and what it is doing to your body and what it's side effects are , the effective dosage , etc etc etc.

For example.
Synephrine , that is a medically confirmed fat burner. Effective dose 10-20mg thrice a day.
Caffeine , 200mg and slowly work your way up to 500mg then cruise at 200 ish mg before stepping it up back to 500mg and cruise to keep it's potency and stop the body from adapting to it.
Capsaicin (Cayenne Pepper Extract) - 150mg ish.

Everything else is basically just guff.

Dangerous stuff:
Theobromine ; Green Tea Extract >98%, Caffeine Anhydrous = all caffeine.

Synephrine HCL = similar to ephedrine (banned)

[Illusive_Man]

@jacquesvol
it's not banned where I'm at.
The European Union is a bit weird.

Everything can be dangerous if you don't control your doses.

[jacquesvol]

As far as I know, ephedrine is banned in the US too.

@jacquesvol
where did I suggest her to take ephedrine hmm?

Not sure how this pill works, but diet is more important than exercise when trying to cut fat.

Diet AND exercise though is the best option.

[BellePepper]

Diet pills are unregulated by the FDA since they're basically supplements. The ingredients in the bottle may not even be in the pill. You have no idea what you're really putting in your body or where it came from. That's incredibly dangerous.

There's no way I would take that risk for no guarantee of safety or results.

Those diet products don't actually work. Modern snake oil.

never believed in magic pills. you gotta go the whole yard if you're trying to lose weight the right way
