Powerthin Review

What You Should Know

Powerthin Phase II is a weight loss supplement that claims to help the dieter shed extra pounds like no other weight loss product on the market. The official website has testimonials from users who claim to lose as much as 30 pounds on one bottle of the supplement.

The website contains contact information and information on the guarantee provided by Powerthin Phase II. According to the website there is a 30 day money back guarantee on the supplement less shipping and handling.

List of Ingredients

Advantra Z, Caffeine, Green Tea Leaf Extract, Cocoa Seed Extract, Maca, Yerba Mate Leaf, Quercetin, Vinpocetine Herb Extract, Yohimbine HCL, Acetyl L-Carnitine, Ginger Root, Gugulipid Extract, L-Tyrosine and White Willow Bark.

Product Features

Powerthin Phase II claims it is scientifically proven to increase metabolism. There are no references on the website to any journals or medical publications where the consumer can visit to read these scientific references. The testimonials on the website leave a bit to be expected as well. There are no before and after photos and the quotes claims users are losing extraordinary amounts of weight on the product.

Taking a look at the ingredient list, we find Advantra Z. This ingredient is a very strong stimulant and should be approached with caution by anyone who is sensitive to stimulants. Advantra Z is another name for Bitter Orange which is known to cause side effects very similar to ephedra. In the facts section of the website, the manufacturer of the Powerthin Phase II claims there are no known side effects reported with use of the product. This is not true. If the manufacturer would look up the claims against Bitter Orange they would see the side effects of Bitter Orange reported.

Green tea leaf extract, on the other hand, is a proven metabolism booster / fat burner. If the Powerthin Phase II supplement wanted to list scientific proof, links could be added to the huge list of trials proving green tea extract works.

While there is no free trial of the Powerthin Phase II offered, there is a free report the buyer receives with the purchase of one bottle. The single bottle sells for $24.99 and the free report is supposed to be worth $19.95.

Advantages

  • There is an official website with contact information.
  • The Powerthin product can be ordered online.
  • The price of the supplement is very inexpensive.

Disadvantages

  • Advantra Z is bitter orange which has many of the same side effects as ephedra.
  • There is no scientific proof the product increases weight loss even though the website claims it does.
  • The testimonials do not contain before and after photographs.

Conclusion

We love the fact that green tea extract is used in this supplement. However, green tea is a source of caffeine which makes it a stimulant. The Advantra Z is also a stimulant. With two stimulants in one product, the dieter who is sensitive to caffeine may find the side effects a bit too much to handle. We support using proven fat burners and appetite suppressants as a part of a weight loss program and this product does not offer that support.

Top Choice for 2010: Avesil

Avesil is clearly the most promising weight control formula we know of on the market. After looking at hundreds of different purported weight loss supplements, Avesil was the most rigorously researched one that we could find. The foundation behind the Avesil formula was an original scientific research study that incorporated an incredible 284 previously published peer-reviewed clinical studies, many conducted in university research labs. All of the product claims made about Avesil are substantiated by this large volume of research.

Unlike many fad weight loss ingredients (hoodia, acai berry, etc.) which are at best supported by folklore and at worst by pop culture, Avesil is totally rooted in disciplined scientific study. In fact, two research trials conducted on human subjects, later published in highly respected scientific journals, concluded that the primary ingredients in Avesil resulted in an average weight loss of more than 3 times that of a healthy diet and exercise alone.

Customers will notice that the claims made about Avesil are quite reasonable and not the least far-fetched. Simply put, Avesil is a safe, healthy way to promote a significant increase in weight loss when taken in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise. In today's market there is a shamefully high number of consumers who have been deceived by outrageous "no work" promises, manufactured customer testimonials and bogus before/after pictures used by so many marketers of weight loss supplements. Avesil promises to deliver healthy, reasonable, and significant weight loss benefits - all offered through the process of a risk-free trial, leaving customers with very little to lose (other than weight).
