Noxycut ingredients

Noxycut’s ingredients are:

Tribulus terrestris (80% Saponins; 200 mg): This compound is claimed to elevate testosterone levels, thus increasing muscle mass and enhancing libido. Tribulus is frequently used to promote fat loss. However, to date the clinical trials involving Tribulus have shown no effect on body fat or testosterone production (Int J Sport Nutr Exerc Metab. 2000;10(2):208-215; J Ethnopharmacol. 2005; 101(1-3):319-23). Little is known about the long-term use of Tribulus terrestris consumption in man. As with most herbs, it is best to take breaks from use in order to minimize potential long term tribulus side effects. Side effects reported by Tribulus terrestris users include feeling warmer, slight elevation in heart beat and restlessness. These s side effects are dose dependent and are more common at doses above 500 mg.

Eurycoma longifolia (50 mg): Eurycoma is used as an aphrodisiac. Standardized for 40% glyco saponins and 30% polysacharides, the Eurycoma extract in Noxycut has been shown to help increase IGF1 levels and modulate cortisol levels. Studies on this particular extract have shown that it increases average male serum testosterone level and muscle strength (Phytomedicine. 2003;10(6-7):590-593: Exp Anim. 2000:49(1):35-38; Br. J. Sports Med. 2003;37: 464-470). One of the side effects of high dose Eurycoma root is that it can cause insomnia. Additional reported side effects are increased body temperature, restless and irritability.

L-Glutamine (100 mg): L-Glutamine is used by athletes and bodybuilders to help them recover faster from workouts and competition, and to keep muscles hydrated for maximum growth. However, to obtain optimal results from this compound a higher dose than 100 mg is needed. Even at doses of 3-6 grams there are clinical studies that indicate that glutamine has no beneficial effects on muscle performance (J Strength Cond Res. 2002;16(1):157-160; Sports Med. 2003;33(5):323-345). No side effects have been reported for glutamine. This is not surprising considering the abundance of glutamine in the human body.

Creatine Ethyl Ester (100 mg): Creatine is used as an aid for athletic performance and for muscle development in bodybuilding. Numerous studies have demonstrated Creatines’ effectiveness in enhancing athletic performance (e.g. Med Sci Sports Exerc. 1998;30(1):73-82; Med Sci Sports Exerc. 2002;34(2):332-343). Cramping and bloating are the most common side effects reported by Creatine users. However, with the more easily absorbed creatine ethyl ester variant, these side effects may be eliminated or reduced.

Arginine AKG (100 mg): Arginine Alpha Ketoglutarate (AAKG) has been demonstrated to increase nitric oxide (NO) levels. NO is a molecule in the cardiovascular system that transports oxygen, increases blood flow and delivers nutrients to skeletal muscle. AKG enhances workout performance, which can result in increased muscle mass. In a clinical trial, subjects taking four grams of AAKG three times a day reported no significant side effects, experienced no changes in blood pressure or heart rate, and exhibited no abnormalities on standard tests for general health (Vacanti et al. Sports Nutr Rev J. 2004;1:S10-S11). Some doctors believe that individuals with herpes (either cold sores or genital herpes) should not use arginine supplements, due to the possibility that it might stimulate replication of the virus. No clear interactions between AAKG and other nutrients have been established. At the time of writing, there are no obvious drug interactions with AAKG.

Caffeine (150 mg): This compound is found in many weight loss supplements because it is a recognized fatburner with clinically proven benefits for weight loss (e.g. Am J Clin Nutr. 1989;49(1):44-50; Am J Clin Nutr. 1980;33(5):989-97). Caffeine can cause headaches, diarrhea, anxiety, jitters, insomnia and increased heart rate.

Cinnamon Extract (50 mg): Cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum and Cinnamomum cassia) may have some benefit in lowering blood-sugar levels and may help slow the body’s absorption of fat. Research studies have yielded variable results and it has not yet been clearly established whether taking a cinnamon supplement reduces blood sugar levels with long term use. Chronic extensive surface ulcerations and lip swelling induced by cinnamon have been reported (Cohen and Bhattacharyya. J Am Dent Assoc. 2000;131(7):929-934). Fourteen cases of cinnamon-induced stomatitis have also reported (Miller et al. Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol. 1992;73(6):708-716).

Guggulsterones 2.5% (15 mg): This ingredient is an extract of Commiphora mukul. Another common name for this compound is Guggul. In India Guggul is used to help lower blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Studies have shown that Guggal is safe and effective in lowering the various lipid fractions that are known to contribute to coronary heart disease.

Synephrine HCL (15 mg): Synephrine comes from the Citrus aurantium plant. It can help boost fat burning, reduce appetite and increase energy. However, clinical studies have shown that Citrus aurantium promotes a relatively small increase in thermogenesis. Side effects of Synephrine include headache, blurred vision, nervousness, anxiety, insomnia, tremor, dry mouth, increased heart rate and blood pressure. Synephrine may also make urination more difficult. Individuals with a history of high blood pressure, anxiety, urinary problems or cardiac disease are advised to consult a physician before taking Synephrine. In addition, combining Synephrine with other medicines with similar side effects could lead to dangerous complications.

Yohimbe (1.5 mg): This ingredient is a tree bark with a variety of pharmacologically active chemicals. A number of studies support Yohimbe’s positive effect on weight loss (e.g. Isr J Med SCI 1991. 27(10):550-6), but its effects are not dramatic. Serious side effects associated with products containing Yohimbe have been reported to the FDA, including renal failure, seizures and death. The major alkaloid in Yohimbe is Yohimbine, a chemical that induces vasodilation, thus lowering blood pressure. Additional side effects can include anxiety attacks. At high doses, Yohimbine acts as a monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitor. MAO inhibitors can cause serious adverse effects when taken in combination with tyramine-containing foods (e.g. liver, cheese and red wine) or with over-the-counter (OTC) products containing phenylpropanolamine, such as nasal decongestants and diet products. Individuals taking Yohimbe are warned to avoid these foods and OTC products due to the increased risk of adverse effects. Yohimbe should also be avoided bypeople suffering from hypotension (low blood pressure), diabetes, and heart, liver or kidney disease. Symptoms of overdose include weakness and nervous stimulation followed by paralysis, fatigue, stomach disorders and ultimately death.

Noxycut conclusion

Noxycut is not an ordinary diet pill and is not recommended for the average dieter seeking to lose weight. Although Noxycut does not contain ephedra it is a stimulant heavy diet pill. Yohimbe in Noxycut comes with some serious side effects, for example, raised heart rate. Consumers should be cautious of the claims made for Noxycut and be careful to consider the potential health consequences of taking this diet pill.
