Zantrex-3

Get a lean, mean body with the help of this supplement.

BACKGROUND Start the Diet Now Advertisement

Zantrex-3 comes right out of the gate with boastful claims that it's not just another diet supplement in an already crowded market. Zantrex-3 says it belongs in a brand new category of super-charged, super-result supplements. Promising users up to five times the normal weight loss from other pills, and the energy you need, Zantrex-3 says it’s the fat burning, energy boosting pill that is going to win you over once and for all.

Zantrex-3 does come across as a high-intensity product that seems to focus more on the short-term rather than support for the long-term. You'll take Zantrex-3 about half an hour before each main meal - this will limit your appetite and you'll begin to see results in a couple of weeks.

Zantrex-3 contains three herbs that are not common, and there has been little research conducted - liex paraguarensis, turnera diffusa and Paulina cupana P.

PRO
  • Rapid weight loss
  • Lose more weight than with diet and exercise alone
  • Increased energy
  • Increase metabolism
  • Does not use ephedrine
CON
  • No emphasis on diet and exercise
INGREDIENTS
  • Xanthine
  • Guarana
  • Niacin
  • Green Tea
  • Ginseng
ADMINISTRATION

For maximum results, you should take two tablets 15-30 minutes before meals with a full glass of water. You should not exceed six capsules per day.

DIET and EXERCISE

No guidance given.

CONCLUSION

There are, of course, many dietary supplements on the market that make similar claims. The decision to choose one of these over another should be an educated one. So, you should enlist the advice of your doctor. Supplements should not be relied on as a stand-alone weight loss plan, as a healthy diet and routine exercise greatly impact results. Zantrex-3 explains on its site that the product has not been tested alongside any diet or exercise programs.

sooo.. for starters im 5'2 130 pounds. i have gained 10 pounds within last year and am wanting to lose it. i keep hearing people are losing tremendous amounts of weight rapidly.. some people say pounds in just the very first day. well i just started taking it last night. my appeal to food has decreased. i am usually one to eat al day.. i have been working out 1-1.5 hours/day 3-5 times/week and eatting sensable. yet i have yet to lose anyt weight, so im hoping this pill can help me out.. any helpful tips? also does this counter act with birth control any?

Ive used this at two different times in my life. Once when i got a gym membership and once when i did not. When i would take it and do cardio at the gym it would make me feel sick and light headed so i stopped using it. About two years later i decided to give it another try and only used it for the appetite suppressant and b4 long walks. The extra weight came off so fast, within a month and a half i was down 3 sizes. I dont think it suppresses appetite tho because i ate basically the same foods (maybe a little less) but not much less.. Definitly think it helps u loose more than u would with just diet n exercise alone. Worked very well for me!

I used this to get thin fast. I think my results were abnormal (I ended up having pneumonia because of previous health issues--no fault of Zantrex-3), but, I lost about 55 pounds in less than a month with one pill per day and still ate whatever I wanted (which wasn't all that much because of being sick). It almost worked too well! My wedding dress had to be tightened up a little extra and we added straps to make sure it stayed up. Loved being as thin as I was in high school! Triplet pregnancy made me a little "fluffy" now, but, I'm going to do Zantrex again and get back to my skinny pants and look good in a bikini!

I lost 46 lbs over an 8 month period on 1 pill at a time over 5 years ago. I notice that many people are taking these pills with tea, hot chocolate, etc. Caffeine with these pills is a recipe for misery. Also, I was never able to take two at one time. Only one in the a.m. and one in the late afternoon. And I never had trouble sleeping. I've gained about ten lbs. back due to laziness on my part so I started back April 1. I've already lost 3 lbs. Good Luck everyone......and don't forget to exercise!! Even if it's just a walk.

Just to be thin

I have to say that if you have a sit down job, this may not be for you. The energy boost is there, but be ready to work it off, or you may feel weird, well I did anyway. I had an upset stomach for 6hrs straight. Does not suppress my appetite. I know all diet pills work different for different people, and this unfortunately did not work for me:-(

Its' been 4 days and at first it seemed great. Appetite was suppressed and I stayed away from my normal snacking with only 2 pills per day... 1 before breakfast and 1 before lunch. Yesterday on the treadmill, my heart started to hurt like never before and I had to stop after a mile. For context: I ran two marathons within a month of each other, so I've never had problems running. Will admit that I have not stopped drinking my daily tea. I'll give it a few days and try again... without the tea.

2nd day on Zantrex 3 and i LOVE. it. Gives me energy have lost about 3 pounds already (with diet and exercise and plenty of water) no side effects except hot flashes every now and then but not bad at all. I have two boys so the energy is great. I take 2 in the morning before my breakfast egg with no butter, and one in evening at dinner workout 20-30 mins a day walking or running on treadmill. Bottom line I would recommend this to people who are use to caffeine and people who need to lose weight. Oh by the way my starting weight was 195 down to 191 height is 5'3 hoping to go Down to my weight before I had kids which was 130.. good luck to everyone out there :-)

I used this 3 years ago to lose 40 pounds in 5 months. AWESOME! I did however eat right, drink TONS of water, and exercise 3-4 times a week. I have since gained all the weight back (my fault) and gotten back on it. Its great and really kick starts the weight lose so you want to continue.

hopeful girl

will i lose weight with these pills without excersizing, but dieting?so i just took my first two pills today and im really hopeful for this. most of the results i read are positive! i was a little jittery today with a heartbeat a little faster than normal. what im wondering is if these pills will work if i change my diet, but not excersize much. im injured and cannot do the physical work, but with these pills and dieting right, will i lose the weight? i really hope so. i only want to lose 10 pounds, 15 at the MAX... wish me luck!! ill write later on with how its going!

I have taken an entire bottle over the last month and I have not lost a single pound. I weigh 302 and drank 6-8 bottles of water per day, quit eating any sugar, and exercised. I am very dissappointed.

This is the only pill that has worked for me-EVER! I took it 4 yrs ago when I had a hysterectomy, I had ballooned up to 240 pounds, but within 5 months was back down to 165 with 1-2 days of exercising/wk. There are 2 things for people to be aware of for this to work for you though. 1 is it contains Niacin (vitamin b3) which some people are very sensitive to, my friend experienced alot of redness on her skin and a warming sensation when she tried these- however, it does say that on the label. 2 is the amount of caffeine. It has an extremely high amount! When I diet, I cut out all soda and drink water, lemonade, and caffeine free green tea. So essentially these pills prevent me from having any caffeine withdrawals! But if you are sensitive, definitely start with 1 pill before your meals, that way you don't get anxious or a stomach ache! I have tried multiple pills such as SlimQuick, Hydroxycut, HealtheTrim, and QuickTrim. This is the only one that has worked and did everything it said it would! Remember water and exercise :)

I have been taking it for roughly 3 weeks. I started off taking 4 a day 2 per meal 2 meals a day. Quite honestly I havent noticed really any bad side effects. Sure my stomach will rumble a little bit, but that was wheni first started taking it. but even then it wasnt painful. Personally when it comes to drinking water I noticed people saying things about it. So I decided to heed there warning so I drank about 3 glasses per meal. So far thats proved to be sufficent. On a weird side note, since ive started taking this diet pill, ive noticed I am not drinking as much pop/soda as i normally used to. I used to easily drink a 12 pack a day. Since ive started taking this diet pill Its like my body doesnt need it. Whats strange is I am not feeling any side effects from not drinking any pop/soda. As far as energy is concerned i am not going to attempt to answer that. The reason being I have sleeping disorder and tend to be nocturnal. As far as supressing appetite Id aggree that it does. As far as actual weight loss I wouldnt know I havent weighed myself yet. I will say this I weigh roughly 210 right now i am not expecting quick results like others in here. I would be satisfied if i lost 5-10lbs per month. I am unable to excerise due to multiple injures so we shall see what happens. I will be posting a weight update here in a few days.

I've been taking the pill on and off. It definitly suppresses my appetite. But the side effects are horrible if u take 2 or more pills at one time. Start with 1 pill. That was even to much for me. So now I open up the blue capsel and pour the brown powder into a cup. Then I mix with hot tea or hot coco. I sip on it for about 2 hours here and there while at work. It helps suppress my appetite with out the side effects! The first time I tried the pill I took 2 of them at once and I felt like a meth head. I felt like I was not myself. My heart and mind was racing. It was a horrible experience. TRY MIXING IT WITH A FLUID. And drink water on the side of that. I use one pill a day to help skip early morning appetite at work. Drinking it gives me a lot more control and if I start feeling bad side effects then I won't drink the rest. I will not be buying another bottle of this I don't think. Still trying to finish the bottle I got.
