Hydroxycut Instant Drink Packets

Just add water for a convenient way to take this popular weight loss supplement.


BACKGROUND

Hydroxycut Recall after FDA Warning to Stop Using the Diet Pill

The very popular Hydroxycut diet supplement is now available in instant drink packets. Containing the same patented weight loss formula as original Hydroxycut, Hydroxycut Instant Drink Packets mix easily, and contain just 5 calories, with no sugar.

Hydroxycut is an ephedra-free product that is supposed to increase your metabolism and curb your appetite. Hydroxycut products have shown in some cases to increase weight loss 4.5 times more than just diet and exercise alone.

Hydroxycut Instant Drink Packets come in two flavors - lemonade and wild berry.

PRO
  • Hydroxycut Instant Drink Packets may help to jump start a weight loss program
  • Contains no sugar
  • Only 5 calories
CON
  • Hydroxycut Recall due to product association with death and liver disease
  • Contains caffeine
  • May induce side effects like irregular heart beats or heart palpitations
INGREDIENTS

Hydroxycut Instant Drink Packets contain the Hydroxycut Proprietary Blend, which consist of Rhodiola rosea Root Extract, Garcinia cambogia extract from the rind, Gymnema sylvestre extract from the leaf, Phosphatidylserine-enriched soy lecithin, calcium, potassium, iron, citric acid, natural flavors, acesulfame potassium, sucralose, silicon dioxide, cane juice crystals, FD&C Yellow #5 and antifoam.

ADMINISTRATION

Empty one packet of Hydroxycut Instant Drink into a 16 oz. bottle of water and shake. Consume it immediately, approximately 30 to 60 minutes before meals, preferably before breakfast, lunch and dinner. Do not exceed 3 packets in a 24-hour period. Do not take within 5 hours of bedtime.

DIET and EXERCISE

For best results, use Hydroxycut for 8 weeks in conjunction with a low-calorie diet and a regular exercise program.

CONCLUSION

Hydroxycut is a very well-recognized name in the world of weight loss supplements. While the Hydroxycut Instant Drink Packets may be a convenient way to consume this product, it is still not approved by the FDA and carries the risk of side effects.

It's okay I guess. I just started today. At first, I felt a little weird after drinking my first bottle but then again my days start at three in the morning. I guess I do enjoy it cause I try not to use it for losing weight, the energy is what I need it for and it has worked so far. Best thing, this product has not given me the jitters or even a little sign of crashing.
I think that anyone who is taking this should follow the instructions and the proper guides to losing weight. No one should ever starve theirself and take any type of diet supplements with no food in their body. That is a #1 no.
Well, anyways, I give this a thumbs up! posted Jun 25th, 2009 9:17 pm

I cant believe they recalled this product, I am so mad!!!!
I only use it once a day or so, about 45 minutes before going running, I do not use it for weight loss, but I love the energy it gives me and helps me deal with cravings. posted May 6th, 2009 4:51 pm

I love it, I just slip it into my water bottle at lunch and one after that. I usually just have two or three of the packets a day, but its a great way to get your water in for the day. posted May 4th, 2009 3:22 pm

I take the drink packet once a day before lunch. I tried the pills and they made me feel weird. It was like my head was in a bubble or something. I haven't had that same problem with the drink mix, but sometimes I don't take it every day because I will have two or three cups of coffee. I do still drink it if I have one cup of coffee though, but again I only take it once a day. I do feel less sluggish, and have more energy. posted Apr 22nd, 2009 1:47 pm

Feel Ok So Far

Comment

I need to lose 20 pounds and saw this product at GNC. I was worried since all I drink is water, milk and fresh juice from my juicer. It's been three days and I haven't had any jitters nor rapid heart rate. I drink one packet mixed w/ 16.9 oz bottled water pretty fast (within 1-1.5 minutes) because it doesn't taste that great (it's not awful, but I'm used to fresh squeezed juice so powder doesn't cut it for me). So far so good - makes me pee a lot so I think that's where some unwanted pounds will be going! :) posted Apr 19th, 2009 9:49 pm

Very happy with product. I had been feeling very sluggish with the need to drink alot of coffee daily. I knew this wasn't healthy and it left me feeling ick... I really wanted more strength in my workout sessions and this improved them immensely. I sip on the drink throughout the day. The pills are too strong for me to take so I can still get the extra energy I need from about 1/2 of the 16 ounce bottle, then before my workout I down the rest. It has increased my runs from 20 mins to almost 35 mins. I feel great, no jitters just clean energy. I would recommend this for anyone that needs that extra boost and doesn't want to deal with the harshness of the pills. ALSO, so far not irritability and I believe it is because you can pace yourself. Taste doesn't bother me, it's pretty good. posted Apr 16th, 2009 2:18 pm

I lowered my calories and worked out 5 days a week for 30 min and lost some but then I added the berry drink mix and it not only helped me not feel hungry but I lost more weight! The taste is ok but it is gritty at the bottom so not really and instant drink. And I didn't drink all of it maybe 25% was left in the bottle but I loved it. posted Apr 15th, 2009 6:37 pm

I JUST STARTED DRINKING THE WILD BERRY PACKETS. I REALLY LIKE THE TASTE AND THAT IT GIVES ME ENERGY WITHOUT BEING JITTERY, UNLIKE ALL OF THE OTHER ENERGY DRINKS I"VE DRANK.THEY HAD A VERY NASTY TASTE TO THEM. posted Apr 14th, 2009 10:58 am

Everyone keeps saying that the exercise is the "trick" not the drink mix...well, that is true! However, if you don't put the fork down, you wont lose weight either! This drink mix gives you a little extra energy when your coffee just wont cut it for you workout AND helps with your appetite. As a 30 something mother of three...I need all the energy help I can safely get! posted Apr 10th, 2009 11:55 am

I have the lemonaid flavor and it taste a lot more natural to me. I was just looking for a little energy boost and an edge off my cravings..this drink mix does it! I add it to a .9 oz bottle and sip on it over the course of an hour. Energy feels natural (not hyper) and appetite stays surpressed, pretty much all day. Can't take the pill form, causes too much anxiety and heart palps. Two thumbs up for the drink mix! Combine it with some exercise and lots of water! posted Apr 10th, 2009 11:52 am

I was walking past GNC two days ago and find out there are drink packets. I usually buy drink packets just to give my water some taste. Now I can drink this and jump start some weight loss?! Before wasting my money I thought I read some comments first. Which taste better lemon or berry and does it really work? I need to lose about 25 pounds. posted Apr 8th, 2009 5:29 pm

I tried the pills and my body couldn't handle them at all, so I was skiddish about trying the packets but did anyway, and they are much better for me I think with the pills you take it all at once and for some people it is just to much, but with the drink packets you don't take it all at once well I guess you could but for me I just take a drink here and there I never down it all at once, I am not jittery and my heart rate has not incresed, it also gives me more energy which my kids love I take walks with them more and to the park and things like that. As for the people who have given a bad review and the whole death thing it really sounds like some people have no common sense at all, you have to hydrate and if you feel weird or anything unusual use your head STOP taking it there are always WARNING signs if something is messing with your body in a negative way, DUHHHHH stop taking the stuff and consult a Doctor ASAP, no one should be dumb enough to lose there life because they are trying to lose weight, and everyone needs to remember there is no one product or weight loss plan that is going to work for everyone, if something doesn't work for you, you should leave your personal comment, but I think it is 100% unecessary to leave these, ANNOYING negative comments, and again COMMON SENSE there is a reason this stuff is #1 someone did not just come along and make this up, it works if your not stupid about taking it!!!! posted Apr 6th, 2009 12:36 pm

I started using the drink packets at the beginning of this week. I've already noticed I don't crave the unhealthy food too often anymore. The taste from the wild berry packets seem to leave a sweet after taste in your mouth, so i dont crave anything sweet. And it made me thirsty so i've been drinking a good 6 -9 glasses of water a day, which leaves less room for food and more water to detox your body from previous junk food.

now the caffine in it. I've had no problem with the amount of caffine in it. some people are saying it makes them jittery or have heart palpatations. Caffine is a drug & you can OD on it, depending on your bodys size and tolerance to caffine this product may or may not bother you. Its not going to treat everyones body the same.


and the only possible way to die from this product was if you didnt drink the recommended amount of water because all the caffine will dain your body of water which can effect your kidneys. so if you notice your urine is getting darker start loading up on the water, cause thats a sign of dehydration.

OR if you were to ignore the dosage instructions or ingredients in the product. taking any other products with caffine in them probly wont be your smartest decision. like i said caffine is a drug & you can OD on it.



But i have had no problems with this product thus far. & its not too expensive, deffinately a good choice for me =] posted Apr 4th, 2009 12:06 pm
