Lipo-6 is a weight loss product by Nutrex that is known for being a powerful fat burner. Since it is a liquid capsule for superior absorption, it is different from other weight products available in the market. LIPO-6 consists of highly advanced pharmaceutical-strength ingredients that allow a pronounced fat-loss effect. Furthermore, the product utilizes all natural vegetable capsules which are completely devoid of any animal products.
How it works
Lipo 6 claims to help lose weight by increasing metabolism and suppressing appetite. It claims to burn fat pertaining to “all six fat receptors” (B2, B3, B1, Alpha-1, Alpha-2 and Alpha-3) the human body possesses. This in turn supposedly burns away excess body fat quicker. The capsules boost the user’s energy level and curbs hunger and random cravings. It targets
individual body areas such as the thighs, buttocks, stomach and love handle area.
Black
Lipo 6 Black is an upgraded and more powerful version of Lipo 6. It apparently attacks and cremates fat wherever the two meet. Due to the high intensity of the capsules, they come with extreme cautionary measures by Nutrex. 120 capsules of the product are available for $69.95.
For Women
The original Lipo-6 product was meant for both men and women. However, Nutrex introduced another product specifically engineered for female physique, namely Lipo 6 Hers and later Lipo 6 Black Hers. The ingredient of liquefied Yohimbine HCL targets alpha-receptor sites which are pre-dominantly located in common female problem areas such as things, glutes, stomach and back of arms. The ingredient stimulates the release of stored fat into free fatty acids which helps reduce fat deposits in the above mentioned areas. Moreover, the combination of Methylsynephrine, Synephrine and Hoodia Gordonii is particularly effective in controlling sugar-cravings which many women normally experience during the course of dieting and weight-loss programs. 120 capsules of the product are available for $32.99.
Ultra
Lipo 6 Black Ultra Concentrate is by far the strongest fat burner Nutrex has ever released. It is an ultra concentrated potent one pill only formula that is engineered to rapidly destroy body fat deposits. It is so strong that the company itself advised not to take more than one pill in one day. The pill also exerts a powerful appetite suppressing effect and sends an intense feeling of energy that overcomes the user’s physique and keeps them going for hours. 60 capsules of the product are available for $30.97.
Unlimited
Lipo 6 Unlimited is one of Nutrex’s new products that includes many stimulants that were also found in the previous products. However, there is an additional focus of this product on mood improving compounds such as N-Acetyl-L-Tyrosine and Mucuna Pruriens. 132 capsules of the product are available for $39.99.
Side Effects
One of the many side effects of Lipo 6 is insomnia. The pills contain a combination of stimulants (caffeine, synephrine and yohimbine) that have powerful effect on energy levels (which is beneficial for weight loss) but clashes with our natural sleep cycles. One of the ingredients of the pills, caffeine anhydrous is a potent diuretic which causes increased water loss from our body through sweating and urination. Therefore, dehydration is another side effect that has been observed to come along. Another
side effect that has been observed is the increased blood pressure and heart rate. An ingredient, Stynephrine, has been reported to cause stroke and angina in some individuals. Other ingredients such as Yohimbine and Caffeine also cause jitters, nervousness and anxiety. Caffeine, as well as other stimulants included in the product, act on the adrenal glands to increase production of epinephrine and norepinephrine. This increases the user’s energy but also becomes a cause of excessive adrenal stress. Other side effects of the products include nausea, dizziness, tremors, headache and skin
flushing. These symptoms can be attributed to one or a combination of stimulators included in the pills.
