The manufacturer of Xyphedra claims a guaranteed weight loss of 12 pounds in the first 72 hours “or your money back!” Such a claim should be viewed with caution. Normally, such a rapid loss in weight is only accomplished safely with a detoxification product. With the only proven weight loss ingredient in Xyphedra being green tea, it is difficult to see how Xyphedra can achieve the spectacular weight loss claimed.
Ingredients
Xyphedra is a proprietary blend (500 mg per capsule) of Green Tea, Chocamine, Phenylethylamine, Picamilon, L-Tyrosine and L-Theanine.
Green Tea - This proven diet pill ingredient is backed by research supporting its efficacy in boosting metabolic rate and promoting weight loss. Research has demonstrated that it is one essential catechin, EGCG, and caffeine that are the main active ingredients in green tea.
Chocamine – A patent-pending cocoa extract that may help reduce food cravings, and boost of energy. It is included as a stimulant, and contains both alkaloids and amines that may release adrenaline into the body.
Phenylethylamine – This ingredient is also found in chocolate, and can help promote a sense of well being and suppress the appetite. It is commonly used in diet pills to provide a boost in mood.
L-Tyrosine - An amino acid that helps to synthesize proteins. L-tyrosine has been shown to aid in weight loss. This ingredient is commonly used in anti-depressant pills.
L-Theanine – Another amino acid, that has anti-stress properties but that is unlikely to achieve much in terms of weight loss.
Picamilon – This ingredient is used for mood alleviation and not weight loss, as such.
From this ingredient line-up, unfortunately the only proven weight loss ingredient is green tea. With ingredients like this, it is difficult to see how Xyphedra can achieve the spectacular weight loss claimed by the manufacturers.
Xyphedra’s website
The website provides very limited information. Essentially all that is presented on the site is a limited number of sketchy testimonials, an unconvincing image depicting how Xyphedra works and a guarantee statement. There is not much else there. As a marketing ploy the manufacturer is trying to play off the ephedra ban. It is hard to follow the reasoning here, as there are no ephedra-like ingredients in this diet pill.
Xyphedra’s guarantee
There is a 60 day money back guarantee.
