Supplement Confusion

[que_66]

I've been researching supps, reading thread after thread and then re-reading questions I've previously asked as well as medical reviews of supps for fat burning. Like this one: Top 30 Weight Loss Supplements

With everything that's happened recently I don't have a lot of money for supps so when I do get to invest in some I need it to be the right one(s). (I know that I'm not the only one with this situation but I'm getting really frustrated.)

I'm sensitive to stimulants, they make my heart race and make me short of breath. (I tried Metabolfe regular and thought I was gonna die!)

Has anyone heard of some of the supps listed on that report? (like the top 5. I've personally taken Hot Rox and noticed a difference.)

How do the AF supps compare to the ingredients in the top 5? (I can read the ingredients but I can't tell you which ones are the same as something else with the different name.)

Here's what I'm taking atm: laugh if you want to, newbies have to start somewhere.

*Flintstone Complete multi vitamin. (Go ahead & laugh it's all I have atm.)
*Calcium w/D - 600mg/125IU
*Vitamin C – 1000 mg
*Gentle Iron – 28 mg (Iron glycinate)
*ON Whey – chocolate w/2% milk. Between 8-16oz per day, usually in the evening.
*Alpha Lipoic Acid - 200 mg (trying to use this one up b4 changing to the combo pill of ALA/ALC)

I want a thermogenic or fat burner to boost my metabolism but not send me to the er! I'm so cornfused !!!!!!!!!

IMO none of those products can TOUCH the AF store quality ...

Levorex is (basically) a non stim Fat Burner. Won't feel jittery etc.

Cardio Breeze is a better choice than T-Rex for you.

If you are going to spend money on supps, I wouldn't blow it on ANY of those on that list, period.

I highly recommend getting a tight diet & training schedule in place first .. THEN add supps... just MHO ...

I've tried most thermos from past yrs, found some I like, some that give me evil headaches. The ones I liked the best have since been removed from the market due to lack of access to the primary components. I've since generally only looked to thermos for a little extra kick in the pants for training & cardio. I personaly don't think any of them are going to have any significant impact on fat loss so I don't really waste my time looking for the "best" one. Its not somethign that is going to make or break my results.

WRT you being sensitive to thermos - all thermos? How did HotRox affect you? If all ephedra-type stimulants affect you badly , then I'd only suggest AF Store Cardio Breeze because it doesn't have that type of stim component.

Generally I've tried the other stuff but prefer the AF Store stuff and haven't bothered to run around and try all the new products again.

If it has ephedra in it I avoid it. Those give me the jitters and/or make me short of breath and make my heart race. Some things have a "natural type of ephedra" and that sends my heart racing too. When I took the Hot Rox I wasn't dieting or exercising but it didn't make me jittery. I don't think I was taking the right dosage though. Too much caffeine does the same thing.

I'm getting the diet ironed out & I'm starting Shadow's plan but I want something that can help kickstart the fat burning without the jitters and hopefully provide a bit on an energy boost.

Found Levorex on AF though a link (I think you supplied, Bunny) in another thread, but can't find it through the store front.

Will there be a time when the Cardio Breeze will be offered in a "mini" pak so that people can sample it?

Other non-stimulant fat burners or supps to add with fat loss: sesapure, ClA,glucorell,green tea based thermogenics(mild stimulation)

Good luck--it is confusing. Look for high caffeine content or synephrine based products as ones to avoid since you have issues with too much stimulation.
