Question 1

is hydroxycut safe?

Accepted Answer

No.: In 2009, the fda told consumers to stop taking hydroxycut because of risk of liver damage.  While the company says it "reformulated" its supplement, i tell my patients to stay away from hydroxycut - there's no great evidence it works better than other weight loss interventions out there, and there is some concerning evidence that it does harm.  As with many supplements, buyer beware.

Question 2

how effective is hydroxycut?

Accepted Answer

Hydroxycut: There are no studies pointing out that hydroxycut is an effective weight loss drug.  Hydroxycut contains large amounts of caffeine, that will raise your blood pressure and body temperature causing you to burn more calories. Some of the ingredients of hydroxycut are green tea extract, guarana extract and garcinia gamogia.  Best way to loose weight is by having a healthy diet and daily exercise.

Question 3

does hydroxycut max work for women?

Accepted Answer

Poorly!: It is a money making scam.  Many potential problems can occur with this product as well. Not fda approved for weight loss!

Question 4

whats a better product? hydroxycut or lipzene?

Accepted Answer

I wouldn't spend: My money on either of them.

Question 5

how much time does it take for hydroxycut hardcore to work?

Accepted Answer

It isn't that good: Nothings really been shown to be superior to plain turkey for supplements. Then, there's a 1-2 month lag before muscles actively get bigger. While creatine might make this slightly faster, by a few months there's never been shown to be an improvement / difference over turkey/ protein/whey/etc.

Question 6

can you explain if it's safe to use hydroxycut, and how do i use it?

Accepted Answer

Safety: In 2009, the maker of Hydroxycut recalled it after reports of seizure, rhabdomyolysis, and liver toxicity.  The current formulation contains Alchemilla vulgaris (Lady's Mantle), Olea europaea (Wild Olive), Cuminum cyminum (Komijn), Mentha longifolia (Wild Mint). Although claims to be "Clinically proven" (2 studies sponsored by the co. showing weight loss), no unbiased results are available.

Question 7

what do you advise if i want to lose 25 pounds. does hydroxycut max really work?

Accepted Answer

If you really want: to lose 25 pounds - would avoid taking lots of weight loss products and address it through diet and activity level. To lose weight insure that calories burned &gt; calories consumed. Drink at least 8  - 8 oz glasses of water per day. Try for 8 hours of sleep/night.  Aim for at least 5 servings of vegetables &amp; 4 servings of fruit per day. Use whole grain when possible. Avoid sodas, alcohol &amp; junk &gt;

Question 8

what good can hydroxycut gummies do for me at 58  with the medical problems and medications i am on?

Accepted Answer

Avoid diet pills. : Hydroxycut has been linked with liver damage and muscle injury that can result in kidney damage. We have no way of knowing your medical problems or your medications, so it's best to check with a doctor who does. Generally, though, successful weight loss realistically will not be achieved by a simple pill (or gummy). It involves lifestyle changes in self control, diet, and activity. Best of luck!

Question 9

is it ok to take hydroxycut 2x a day instead of 2caps 3x a day my exercise days are monday wednesday and friday including weekends?

Accepted Answer

Yes : Hydroxycut can be used this way but be sure to discuss this supplement with your doctor to determine its safety for you based on your medical history.

Question 10

is there aspartame in hydroxycut products?

Accepted Answer

Who cares?: Hydrocut products are as worthless as all the other supplements out there. Aspartame (if it's in there) may be the safest ingredient. Why knows what's in there and what harm it could do to you. One thing is certain, it won't help you with any medical problem or weight loss. Don't get your medical information from friends, tv or the internet.
