NuPhedrine

A combination of Advantra-Z and real South African hoodia


BACKGROUND

Please note, the product DietsInReview.com has reviewed is available at Nuphedrine.com. There is confusion amongst consumers about the color and packaging of the pills. In 2008, Nuphedrine changed manufacturers, and in the process updated their packaging and the color of the pills. The current Nuphedrine product is sold in a box with individual packets inside.

Nuphedrine is a highly-sought after, but highly controversial diet supplement. It contains two key ingredients which have been implicated in aiding weight loss: Advantra-Z and Hoodia. Advantra-Z is a patented form of synephrine or citrus aurantium, a similar product to the now banned ephedra. Hoodia is a cactus plant that hails from South Africa where it has long been used as an appetite suppressant for tribal men on long treks through the countryside. It has recently gained enormous popularity in the US. Nuphedrine also contains Slimaluma, a patented product that is also supposed to suppress appetite.

Nuphedrine is not supposed to cause any side effects. It does not contain any stimulants like caffeine or taurine.

PRO
  • Nuphedrine may help to jump start a weight loss program
  • Nuphedrine’s auto-shipment program is voluntary, not automatic
CON
  • Nuphedrine is not approved by the FDA
  • No scientific evidence that Nuphedrine results in weight loss
  • Pure hoodia is very difficult to come by
  • May cause many side effects
  • Not a longterm solution to weight loss
  • Hoodia also suppresses thirst
INGREDIENTS

Nuphedrine contains certified, 20X South African Hoodia, Advantra-Z in the 30X potency and Slimaluma.

Here is a breakdown of the three ingredients of Nuphedrine and how they work to help you lose weight:

Advantra-Z alone is supposed to help you burn an extra 500 calories a day with its 30X "Extra Strength" concentration. Advantra-Z claims that it enhances weight loss, increases lean muscle mass, improves athletic performance and suppresses appetite.

Hoodia contains a compound called ‘P57’, which is a molecule that makes you feel full. But only pure hoodia contains this special molecule. Many studies have shown that even though a product may claim it is pure hoodia or certified hoodia, it is not the real thing. The hoodia contained in NuPhedrine is concentrated 20 times and has a standardized guaranteed 20:1 ratio rating.

The third ingredient in Nuphedrine , Slimaluma is sends signals to your brain while you’re eating telling you that you’re full. Given its effects on satiety, a little amount of food can go along way in tricking you into feeling that you’ve eaten enough to quell your appetite even though very little food has been consumed.

ADMINISTRATION

It is recommended that you take three capsules of Nuphedrine per day. Two capsules should be taken in the morning on an empty stomach or 1-2 hours after eating. The third capsule should be taken at mid-day to help get you through the evening.

DIET and EXERCISE

There are no specific dietary or exercise recommendations while taking any Nuphedrine but the company does recommend that you follow a sensible eating and exercise plan.

CONCLUSION

Nuphedrine may be one of the most popular weight-loss supplements on the market with its triple combination of South African Hoodia, Advantra-Z and Slimaluma. But diet experts, health professionals and individuals who have lost weight and successfully kept it off will attest to the proven fact that weight loss cannot come in a bottle. If it were that easy, there would not be the obesity epidemic in this country like there currently is.

If you are curious about Nuphedrine, speak to a medical professional before you take it, particularly if you have any prior health conditions.

I've tried dozens of diet pills, most of which didn't do jack sh*t. Nuphedrine is the only one that actually worked and helped me lose weight. posted Oct 1st, 2009 12:15 pm

i just ordered nuphedrine from the website, hope it gets to me soon. I did see it for cheaper on eBay but they didn't look like the ones on the nuphedrine.com website so i'm assuming those are knockoffs. Hope the website pills really work, sounds like they do from what i've read. posted Sep 25th, 2009 12:38 pm

margaret.............I ordered from the website and it came in a box and looks like the box on the website. Don't order from eBay or third party sites because they are most likely selling knock offs. the ones i got from eBay were fake and they didn't work. I opened one of the pills and it looked unsafe to consume. didn't smell right, you know? I've been ordering nuphedrine from the website and those are the real deal, very potent formulation. posted Sep 24th, 2009 2:18 pm

I used Nuphedrine earlier this year for about two months and it helped me lose the winter fat that i built up from the holiday season. Works great and i'm ordering a couple more boxes to help me keep the pounds off during this holiday season which is just around the corner. posted Sep 16th, 2009 10:16 am

I stopped ordering stuff from eBay along time ago. They sell a lot of crap on there and most sellers are scammers. I didn't order my nuphedrine from there but i just checked it out and looks like most of them are fakes. the nuphedrine i got from the website works great and had fast delivery. I'm aslo able to get someone on the phone during business hours and check on my order delivery. posted Sep 4th, 2009 1:32 pm

DO NOT ORDER NUPHEDRINE FROM EBAY. I ordered it from an eBay seller and got ripped off with some knock off. it doesn't even look like the product on the Nuphedrine.com website. It was made by a company named sunrise or something like that. the pills were bogus. they didn't work and i couldn't return them because they didn't have a refund policy. i can't believe people are still selling the fakes on eBay, thought that stopped a long time ago. eBay is notorious for selling fake counterfeit stuff from shady sellers. I wouldn't buy anything from there unless it wasn't available anywhere else. The real Nuphedrine is where it's at. if anyone tried both you would know. DON"T BUY NUPHEDRINE FROM EBAY, IT"S FAKE! posted Sep 2nd, 2009 11:32 am

I just received my pills yesterday. I got them on eBay and I believe them to be perfectly legitimate. The box was sealed, the pills say Nuphedrine, the expiration date is in 2014 and it does include the "Certificate of Authenticity". Frankly, I don't think the CoA means squat... it's just a marketing ploy but at any rate, I got the real stuff for cheaper than the Nuphedrine site charges.

This is my first day using it so I will have more to say after time has passed. I am not experiencing any side effects. I don't feel at all like I have felt when using a Ephedra-based "stack". I feel no appetite suppressing qualities thus far. However, I am ravenous... moreso than I have been the past few days eating the same amount. I consider this to be a good sign. As someone with a generally sluggish metabolism, constant hunger usually bodes well for me when I am dieting. I eat and still lose weight. I will comment again when I have a more definitive review. posted Sep 1st, 2009 6:33 pm

I really didn't think Nuphedrine was any good but figured i try it out since they stopped making things with ephedra. The nuphedrine is actually just as strong as any ephedra pill that i have taken. Is this ephedrine? posted Aug 26th, 2009 2:52 pm
