 Good June 14, 2010
Karla Reynoso (Santo Domingo, DR)
I liked the product. It worked well on me. Combining the pills with exercise and a good diet i went from a 32% body fat to 15% in 11 weeks. :)

I took only 2 of the recommended (3 pills) per 2x day dose on empty stomach - you are instructed it's ok to eat 30min post-dose. I was a big fan of ephedra when it was available and that product was a better appetite suppressant than this, but ephedra had a hard crash a few hours later. This one is best taken before a workout -- I was able to add to a run/cardio post weight routine and normally I'm wiped out after an hour of weights and abs. However, the appetite suppressant aspect wasn't really there for me.
What I do really like about this product, and unlike ephedra, is that I have no insatiable thirst, no heart palpitations, no headaches, no surges of energy early on that leaves me sloth-like 4-6 hrs later. This product provides a bit more energy than 3 cups of strong coffee and stays with you for hours. I took at 830am and by 130pm when I had to take my second dose, I wasn't crashing but the effects weren't as intense. By the time I started my workout at 2pm, I felt better endurance. By 4pm, I was quite hungry and thirsty. By the time I went to bed at 10pm, I was naturally tired and had no trouble falling asleep.
I'm curious as to how this compares with the Lipo 6 Hers -- I understand 6 Black is supposed to be stronger. I was hoping for more of an appetite suppressant effect tho, so I'll keep looking for that product that fits the bill.
 What these products REALLY do. December 9, 2009

Let's get this all out there about what this product, as well as, all these "types" of products really does. This also relates to its sister product Lipo 6 - standard.
Look, I've been doing competitive bodybuilding and power-lifting for years. Including help train athletes in college. There is no, I repeat, no product on the market that will actually crush, kill, remove, melt, or any other adjective, the fat from your body. There is no magic pill. There is really only one prescription drug that will actually help in reducing fat. For the life of me I can't think of the name, but, the side-effects include the onset of dramatic diarrhea. Why? Because the chemical combination of the drugs block the absorption of fat. What you end up getting is a slurry of fat mixed in with waste product, and there is no way of knowing when that sludge is about to be released. Sounds fun, eh?
What Lipo 6 and these other types of fat burners, primarily do, is heat up the body in the act of trying to "melt" away the fat. Unfortunately, fat reserves don't melt away. They need to be utilized. How is that done? The short answer is; after all the glycogen has been utilized. Fat utilization doesn't take place until LONG after you start to work out, and it doesn't happen as you're just sitting there at your desk or watching TV.
These types of supplements really only started to take off after we in the bodybuilding, powerlifting, and athletic arena were found out to be taking a radical combination of three "drugs/supplements" called "The triple Stack." What that consisted of was 100mg of caffeine, 325mg of aspirin and 25mg of Ephedra, taken 3 times a day. That combination created a "synergistic effect." Meaning, the combination of the drugs created more output then if the drugs were taking individually. It created a "heating" of the body, and the thought was that the "brown fat" (fat that has blood vessels running through it, primarily in the middle of the back) could be burned away. The other positive was that it gave you a great focus and energy during your workouts, plus, because of the caffeine, created a mild diuretic effect and a suppression of appetite. This was great if you were getting ready for a bodybuilding show or a wrestling match.
Several years after this use of the triple stack, supplement companies started creating this combination of drugs, in their "natural" state, ie Guarana extract, mauwong (sp). This was a great alternative to buying the drugs individually. And, yeah! It had to be good for you, it's a legitimate supplement.
Of course, after the death of a professional baseball player, who was taken this triple stack, and taking a lot of ephedra was confirmed that he died because of this use, (may also had to do with a bad ticker) the US banned the use of ephedra in supplements and general sales. (Go figure. We'd been using this stuff for years without any problems but because some idiot over does it, we all pay for it. Yet, how many people every year die because of cigarettes? hmmmm)
Now, all the fat loss supplements out that are Ephedra free. Including all the Lipo-6 line, slimfast, Hydroxycut, you name it, they got it.
What does this all mean? Well, there is still NO supplement that is going to melt away the fat. It takes a LOT of work. Diet and exercise, blah blah. Same as it ever was, same as it ever was. What this product is good for, is the same thing that the original Triple Stack was good for. Caffeine stimulation throughout the day, more focus at the gym, mild diuretic, and appetite suppression. Additionally, there is a reason why they want you to take this product first thing in the morning, 30 mins before your breakfast. It KILLS your morning appetite so you don't gorge yourself from being so hungry while you're trying to diet.
The one thing I've noticed about Lipo Black, compared to Lipo 6, is that the effects of Black tend to last longer. And the morning appetite suppression is even more profound. I think the weight loss that MOST people are getting from these types of products, are really from water loss, which is what the first 10 lbs of ANY diet is going to be, plain and simple. The main reason our bodies fluctuate some much, especially in the morning is due to water, not fat gain or loss.
All in all, I use the product for same reason I used the triple stack; as a supplement to help me get through the day and my workouts. You just need to think about what you're going to do with our own exercise and diet program. Just remember, no supplement is going to reduce you to a shredded monster or beauty. It's all in the physical and diet approach.
