Editors' Top Pick
Do we ever rate a diet pill positively? Yes. Although it's rare, there are a few diet pills that meet our strict recommendation requirements. Why don't we recommend Biotest Spike? We're looking for clinically proven ingredients, money back guarantees and low prices. Apidexin is our favorite. You can read our review or go to the official site.
Biotest Spike
How about a Spike of Energy?
Biotest, a rather prolific producer of diet products, has cranked out a product that claims to provide the latest in energy and weight-loss technology. In case you don’t believe it, it comes in pretty yellow and black bottle. It retails for $40 per bottle of 50 pills, but what are you getting here? Ripped off or happily energized?
Spike Formula
Ladies and gentleman, the 473 mg Biotest GBX “Proprietary blend” (doesn’t give you the exact concentrations):
- Guarana berry extract
- Thiamine di 2-methylpropionate disulfide
- Natural caffeine
- Yohimbine HCl
Biotest Tested
Essentially this product is a caffeine pill with a few other ingredients. What is thiamine di 2-methlypropionate disulfide? Well, the truth is there isn’t any information about this compound available (strange, huh?) but the company claims it’s amazing. Big surprise.
As for yohimbine, it is not medically proven to help significantly with weight loss but has shown adverse side effects such as nervous breakdowns and other anxiety reactions with long-term use.
Should you Spike your punch?
Yes, I know it’s not a liquid. In any case, this product is less than impressive. For $40 you are essentially getting caffeine with some fairly ambiguous and not necessarily effective ingredients. I say keep looking if you are wanting the best in energy and weight loss.
To see what consumers and experts rated as the best of the best in these categories, take a look at the products below.

This isnt a diet pill. Its a pre workout energy booster and as Someone who regurlarly cycles 100 miles, runs half marathons, fights amateur MMA and lifts weight I can say it works and then some. First time I took it I felt like I was on drugs. I couldnt stop lifting.
