Hello all, i was just wondering if anyone else knows about this supplement made by NXCare. It supposedly helps u lose weight with the inclusion of caffeine and other ingredients u couldnt pronounce if u tried.
http://www.tinysnutrition.com/shop/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=100
it apparently has some sort of patented "6 pack technology" that helps rid of excess fat in the mid-section.
I purchased it, gonna start it tomorrow. I workout 4-5 times a week so i expect plenty in the ways of results.
I have a decent all around body...its just that little belly i have to rid myself of...hopefully this helps me with that...if anyone knows anything about it feel free to share, not only for my benefit, but for others who may have glanced at this product themselves.

Hey, if you want to loose a little weight around the midsection, then you really just gotta pay attention to your diet and the kinds of exercises you do for your stomach. I'm not familiar with all that junk thats in that supplement, but i'm positive that if you drink a couple cups of green/black herbal tea during the day, you'll get that extra boost for your metabolism without all those chemicals in the pills that your taking. Not to mention your gonna save alot of money. And if your a coffee drinker, this can definatly be a replacement that will benefit you in so other ways that coffee couldn't even touch.

I believe the only weight loss proven thermogenic stack is still ECA (ephedra caffein, aspirin) so most of the other stuff, like this Rev XP crap is exactly that... crap. Not to say some of the stuff in it isn't good for you, it is definately overpriced though. And will it help you lose weight? Probably no better than drinking coffee. As for what's in it...
Green Tea Extract: yes Green tea will probably give you some thermogenic effects, mostly because it has caffein in it. It is loaded with antioxidants though.
Cocoa Bean Extract (thebromine): Just more caffein. Theobromine is a compound contained in caffein alkaloids I believe.
Yerba Mate: More caffein! This time from a holly plant.
Dandelion: A weed. Also a diuretic.
Bitter orange (octopomine, synephine): beta 3 adrenergic agonist - supposed to affect beta 3 receptors like ephedra but still unproven.
4-hydroxyisoleucine: sounds like a BCAA to me (think protein)
St. John's Wort (amentoflavone): supposedly an immune system booster
Black pepper (piper nigum): it's pepper... wow.
