Are they safe? Do they actually help? Any side effects?
I would appreciate any advice! Thank-you!

each fat burner is different. i have used many different types and got great benefits with no negative side effects. i have friends who have tried the same ones and couldnt take them. fat burners are all individual situations.

The prime ingredients in the majority of fat burners is the Ephedrine/Caffine/Aspirin stack. They will boost the metabolism some in conjunction with exercise. They are naturally appetite suppressing. They need to be cycled for maximum efficiency. Some people have a hard time with the stack, experiencing nervousness and anxiety, and lack of sleep. I am one of these. I also used them for a contest prep, and felt like I lost muscle size too. I got the feeling they will burn anything in their path! If I time them exact, they can be a good energy boost pre workout. Other than that, I have a hard time with them. My wife now, she can take 2 of them and literally go to bed! So it all depends on your system. It may be the caffine. I don't do any caffine, so that may be what gets me. There are now the Ephedra free ones, these may be an option for you too. Do your research, and start out with the minimum dosage to test them if you decide to try them, and cycle them. This may be a bit long, but this was my experience with them, everyones system is different. Best of luck to you...

I like metacuts by metaform. It gives me a nice jolt for my workout, but does not leave me jittery or on the toilet like Hydroxycut or zenadrine. Diet fuel is cool too, but metacuts is my preferred, and it's cheap, about $13.99 @ gnc! Danya
