  1. I'm considering using one of the products like Lean System 7. I'm currently
    12 - 14% BF and simply looking to lean out.

    Do they work? If so, any you would recommend? Waste of money? Better done
    through diet and save my money? Opinions please.

  2. garbage. all garbage.

    Yerba mate and guarana: Basically caffeine. You'd be better off
    taking some caffeine tabs.

    Citrus aurantium or bitter orange: Contains synephrine alkaloids
    (SAs). "Overall, studies that examined weight loss reported a loss of
    2.4–3.4 kg among participants using SAs, while placebo groups lost
    0.94–2.05 kg."[1] However, the preparations involved in those studies
    also contained other stuff known to increase metabolism and decrease
    appetite, like ephedrine and caffeine. In my experience, citrus
    aurantium does help to decrease appetite briefly, but the effect is
    marginal and not long-lasting. In addition, most citrus aurantium
    preparations suggest a dosage of 80-120mg of SAs per day; that would
    required about 15 of these pills.

    Dandelion: It's a diruetic. It will make you lose weight by peeing
    more and dehydrating you.

    7-keto DHEA: The increase in thyroid hormone caused by ingestion of
    7-keto DHEA drops back to baseline after a short period of time.[2]
    That's supposed to be the primary action of this stuff, so any fat
    loss benefit from hyperthyroidism won't last long.

    Just keep repeating, Larry: "There is no magic bullet ... there is no
    magic bullet ... there is no magic bullet ..."

    Figured so, but I'm always open to anything that works. I'll just stay with
    what I'm doing. Thanks John.

    Uhh, Larry, I will sell you some magic bullets.

    These are authentic magic bullets which were only slightly used by an old
    Cherokee medicine man. I only have a few available for sale. So I will have
    to get top dollar for them.

    E-mail me if interested.

    Just do the ol' ECA stack. It may be tough to get the E in Portland. I can
    get ephedrine here in Utah. Email me if you want some.

    Ephedrine and caff from CVS or the net.

    Northing "natural" to date has been found to be as effective as EC,
    which is cheap and effective. Things like green tea extracts, yohimbine,
    7 keto DHEA, etc may help also.

    I dunno about 7-keto DHEA. The only study I saw with a positive
    effect (the one cited by all the supplement sellers), is an abstract
    on JEPonline regarding some clinical trials with rather lackluster
    results: with exercise, the 7-keto group lost 1.44kg over four weeks,
    as opposed to 0.49kg in the placebo group. Two pounds more over four
    weeks? Plus they used 200mg per day. At the cheapest price I've seen
    (with shipping), that's a good $25.00 for two extra pounds over four
    weeks. And as I noted before, it appears there may be leveling off of
    the hyperthyroidic effect over time.

    You trying to say I'm NOT hilaryass?

  12. I have tried a lot of "fat burners" from my experience (I lost more
    than 70lbs). I can tell you that most of those products are just
    marketing hype.

    Some of them may be efficient and but when my personal training clients
    asked me about "fat burners" I tell them that before you buy anything
    to take a look at Will Brink's Diet Supplements Revealed .

    Actually right now, They are giving away free extracts from the e-book
    so you can see inside at exactly what products is being reviewed. He'll
    tell you what really works and what is just *marketing hype*

    Just go here
    http://snipurl.com/nwtc

    They will send you the extract's immediately.
