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 SlimQuick? 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.
SlimQuick – Will it help?
Probably not. The formula is neither good nor strong enough to help you lose a significant amount of weight.
What’s in SlimQuick?
Slimquick has a decent ingredient mix, but it’s nothing special. If you go to your local Wal-Mart or Rite-Aid, you’ll see a lot of similar fat burners – most of which are sub par and will only help you lose a few pounds (mostly water weight).
The best ingredients found in Slimquick include caffeine and green tea. Caffeine, at the right dosage, can not only speed up metabolism, but also increasew focus and energy. Green tea is also another popular ingredient that really works. However, it needs to be taken in the right concentration to get the same results found in clinical studies. That amount varies slightly, but most experts agree 1000mg is needed. The amount in Slimquick is not revealed, but we know it’s under 500mg. My best guess is 250mg, which is not nearly enough.
The bottom line is that Slimquick is your standard, sub par fat burner. There’s nothing new or unique about it.
Are There Side Effects with SlimQuick?
There are no serious side effects associated with Slimquick although some users have complained of increased heart rate, insomnia, headaches, and nausea.
Does SlimQuick Offer a Money Back Guarantee?
No. This is another reason we don’t recommend it. Only buy diet pills from companies confident enough to back up their products.
Is SlimQuick Worth Buying?
Until Slimquick adds more fat burners to the mix, we don’t recommend it.

I liked the SlimQuick Female Fat Burner, and Was looseing weight, not eating as much. the old slimquick with the blue design. Well now, they have went and changed it to the “new Improved” why can’t they leave a good thing alone.. now that I, have have tryed the new SlimQuicks, I get sick at my tummy, have dizzy spells,Sleepy and tired, and have pain to go to bathroom.also feel all worn out the next morning! now I can’t find the old slimQuick no where. and that is What I want. Seems like every time someone gets used to something, the companies go and mess it up by tryin to Improove it.

In response to Misty, Perhaps your body just isn’t used to the product yet, takes a while for your body to get used to something new in its system so maybe just give it some time

Thanks to SlimQuick I gained 9 brand new pounds and lost $20.00 bucks. I should have known better since the fat lady from the TV Ads never seems to lose any weight at all.

Let me tell you the results I have had with ‘SlimQuick.’ I started ‘cutting down, and cutting back’ last JAN. 2nd 2008. Eat on a dessert plate, was eating healthy, no fast food, no soda’s, no fried foods. I was about a month or two into my diet, when I remembered I had a bottle of SlimQuick. I started taking one (1) pill each morning, on an empty stomach with an 8 oz. glass of water. Only 2 or 3 times did I take a second one later in the day, and only recently have I been taking two (2) in the morning. I have lost 55 pounds! I had lost that much by September 2008. I am maintaining my weight loss also. I will be happy to ’share’ a ‘before and after’ picture…..Folks ask me if I had ‘by-pass surgery……….I say, “No, I just by-passed food from my mouth…LOL……….I have watched my diet, and did incorporate some exercise. But I had bladder prolasp surgery August 4, 2008, and hadn’t done too much exercise since. I really believe SlimQuick has helped me, and if I had taken it as prescribed, I would probably have lost too much weight……..I just turned 66 years old on DEC 29, 2008, so it is not easy for a person my age to lose weight. I went from a size 18 -20 to a Size 12 and medium instead of XX-large. I will be happy to share a before and after picture. I could do an ‘advertisement’ for ‘SlimQuick’ and get paid….If I can do it, anyone can….SlimQuick, along with my eating regiment has done the trick…………….Thank you, Annie

I am currently using slim quick and like it alot. i have tried other diet pills and they always make me jittery and crash when they wear off. that is my favorite thing about slim quick i never feel like im gonna bounce out of my skin and when is wears off i feel fine. it also boosts my mood. i think it is awesome. oh yea and im not as hungry and have lost 5 lbs this week.

I read your reviews and I laughed because it was funny. I am currently on slimquick because I believe that in order to get the results I want, I have to do something I have never done before. I’ll write back in 2 weeks when I have a testimony. Also, I drink the mix in water once daily. And I’m only trying this for two weeks. I don’t think that I will be on this mix a long time because I am feeling the side effects already. I am 43 years old and still trying to lose the weight from having 3 children. I’m sick of these diet supplements that promise to help us lose weight. Is there really something out there that I can try when dieting and exercising doesn’t work alone?

I have been on Slim Quick for 2 weeks and am losing weight after trying everything else. I am 58 and had 4 surgeries in the past 2 yrs. I have tried every thing but my system is so messed up. I eat meats, veggies, fruits and walk. My cravings are next to none and I have sugar pudding to take care of my sweet cravings. No carbs or sugar. It works for me

i just had a baby last year and went from 120lbs to 178lbs. i have been on sq and sq hoodia for 10 days now and have already lost 6lbs. i dont know what the rest of you were or weren’t doing but it’s a beautiful diet supplement that actually works if you work with it

I went on slim quick and it was a joke. I just quit smoking and i gained 20lbs. When i started taking slim quick it made me even more hungier. I craved chocolate and i gained 6lbs. more. I went to the doctors and got on a great diet and in 3 days i lost 4 lbs. Don’t waste your money on slim quick.

Thanks to Annie, I was just about to trash my SlimQuick that I just bought yesterday because of all te negative talk about it.
I am 60 years old and I feel that I can lose weight with this product. I drank my 16.9oz this morning at 8:00am and still feel full at 11:00am, by this time I normally would have had a couple of cookies and eaten 1/2 my lunch..I weigh 200 pounds…have gained 40 pounds in 2 years..shame on me.. wish me luck.
ANNIE CONGRADULATION ON YOUR SUCCEED…THANK YOU

As with all products there are mixed reviews. I have just finished the Slimquick Cleanse and am now into the Slimquick with Hoodia. I began my most recent efforts May 25, 2009 and today, June 2, 2009 I am proud to say I am 16.5 lbs lighter ~ only 60 more to go!
For me, I find the side effects are more from my new eating habbits than from the pills themselves. I was eating 4000 calories each day of junk and am now eating 1500 healthy calories. I have cut out coffee, sugar, salt, chocolate, fried foods, white breads, starches, pop/colas and it is a total shock to my system. The “bathroom breaks” are most likely from the drastic diet change, Headaches are also a symptom of withdrawl. I’m not sure if the pill are indeed responsible for my weightloss thus far, however I find I am more mentally aware of both my intake and my fitness since I started the pills, kind of like a “well, for the $25.oo I might as well be good.”
I do not believe there is a pill that will burn fat without effort. I do believe Slimquick encourages a more healthy lifestyle and helps you form a daily routine. Combined with a excersise plan and pure will power seemingly impossible goals can in fact be obtained.
I don’t see bad reviews ~ I see excuses. I should know, I’ve been dishing them out for 5 years while I packed on 100 pounds.

This is my second week using simquick and i took 2 pills in the morning and 2 around 2pm i couldnt fall asleep till about 3am… does anyone know when i should take the second 2 around.. overall i have been eating healthy and have not had much time for exercise this week but my clothes are feeling not as tight!!!
June 29th, 2009 at 12:50 pm
I started taking Slim Quick today…I took 1 pill @ 6:45 am on an empty stomach. At 7:30 am I ate a Nutrigrain Bar and drank a bottle of water. It is now 11:50 am and I am so ready to eat lunch! I would be hungrier but I have drank 2 bottles of water (3 toatl) this morning. I have peed about 4 times this morning and have to go again so it definetely makes you go! I do feel jittery, shakey and kinda out of it but I think I will adjust. I do recommend not adding any caffeine while taking this product b/c it has plenty! I also think eating before taking the product will help with the jitters. This much caffeine on an empty stomach = disaster. We will see how much weight I lose if any…too soon to tell.

i just bought slimquick drink mix a few days ago im kind of scared to take cause of all the side effects. But i really want to lose weight for my wedding in 3 months, i need some advice!!!!!!
March 24th, 2010 at 8:52 am
I just bought the drink mix and had my first one yesterday. I had a little bit of a headache after I drank it, and it didn’t really help me to feel full. I’m going to use it for the rest of the week and see how it goes.
June 8th, 2010 at 12:34 pm
Just started taking yesterday…I’m doing the 2 pills twice a day and I’m not getting bad side effects so far…my stomach hurts a little but I think it’s because I’m all of a sudden taking 2 pills. No jittery feeling at all wanna lose weight for miami in July will post results soon
