Editors' Top Pick of 2012
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 Phenocal? 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.
What is Phenocal?
According to the Phenocal website, Phenocal is a diet supplement which works by “suppressing your appetite, revving up your metabolism, and maximizing your workout performance increasing your weight loss potential”. By definition, that is 99% of diet pills and fat burners out there. So, is there anything that really makes Phenocal that diet pill that you should buy?
Phenocal’s Clinical Findings
Has Phenocal been clinically tested – nope. Some of the ingredients have. Whether or not Phenocal contains the amounts of ingredients that were clinically tested in each serving of Phenocal is also unclear. What is also unclear is how all of Phenocal’s ingredients will work together. Essentially, if a diet supplement includes a ‘tested’ ingredient, 99.9% it wasn’t the actual product, such as Phenocal, that went through the rigorous testing process.
Phenocal’s Ingredients
The Phenocal website claims, “Phenocal™ is formulated with the highest grade of patented, clinically proven ingredients that will suppress your appetite, increase your energy levels, and get you on the road to a trimmer, toner, and healthier you.” The website also says, “Phenocal™ contains key ingredients Glucomannan and Hoodia that have been clinically proven to reduce hunger and promote a feeling of fullness.”
These claims are very misleading. Where is the clinical test on Glucommanan? How much Glucomannan was used in this ‘test’. How much Glucomannan is in Phenocal? These are questions that you should ask, and Phenocal should answer.
Phenocal does contain several ingredients which have been proven to contribute to weight loss. These ingredients include Green Tea leaf extract, 5 HTP, and 7-Keto.
While Phenocal is correct in their claims that these ingredients can lead to weight loss, they fail to mention that the amount of these ingredients used in the clinical trials is significantly higher than the amount found in Phenocal.
How Much is Phenocal?
The price of Phenocal is $89.99 for 150 capsules. One bottle of Phenocal will last 25 days. I love glucomannan. I have been taking it for years and have lost quite a bit of weight. How much do I pay for it? $10. It makes me feel full, it is good for your GI and colon. It is cheap.
Phenocal Conclusion
Phenocal does contains clinically proven ingredients, but not in the clinically proven amounts. Diet Pill companies should take the initiative to test their products, but nobody does, not even the giant Hydroxycut. Unless you want yet another disappointing weight loss attempt, use your money somewhere else.
