Burn60 Review

What You Should Know

Burn 60 (otherwise known as GNC Burn 60) is a thermogenic dietary supplement produced exclusively by GNC International, one of the world’s top supplement providers. Burn 60 mostly stands out because of its approach. They claim Burn 60 activates through the power of exercise, boosting metabolic burning activity up to 60% after a workout. Although these claims have not been proven, it is very enticing to dieters. Burn 60 also claims its formula is completely thermogenic, which essentially means it claims to increase weight loss by increasing metabolism, energy levels, and concentration.

Burn 60’s main emphasis is on Guarana Seed Extract, a popular weight loss ingredient. It also uses a proprietary blend called MegaNatural. It draws most of its ingredients from leaf extracts, however. Currently Burn 60 is sold in 60ct bottles for $29.99, which is remarkably inexpensive for a weight loss supplement. There are no samples or money-back guarantees available, but the price could make up for this for some.

Ingredients

Guarana Seed Extract, Black Tea Leaves Extract, MegaNatural Grape Skin and Seed Extract, Ginger Root Extract, MegaNatural, Dill Weed Extract, Cellulose, Natural Vanilla Flavor, Cinnamon Bark Extract, FD&C Yellow 6 Lake, Dextrose, Titanium Dioxide, FD&C Red #40 Lake.

Product Features

Burn 60 places heavy emphasis on Guarana Seed Extract, a popular weight loss ingredient. Guarana is often compared to coffee because of its energizing, caffeinated effect. Guarana is popular with athletes, who use it heavily before a strenuous workout. The same concept is applied here. Although there is no evidence backing up Guarana in the weight loss arena, it is well documented as an energy supplement.

Burn 60 places heavy emphasis on its clinical research, which they highlight extensively. Burn 60 claims it conducted a study on its product, which showed a 60% increase in metabolism after a workout. Unfortunately these claims are not verified and they do not offer any public records of this study.

Advantages

  • It uses Guarana Seed Extract, a popular ingredient heavily used by athletes.
  • It is one of the cheapest weight loss supplements available today.
  • Burn 60 does not use caffeine.

Disadvantages

  • This must be used in conjunction with exercise.
  • The manufacturers do not specify how much weight loss (if any) should be expected along with your boosted energy.
  • The manufacturer does not list the ingredients contained in MegaNatural, possibly making this unsafe to take.
  • Although some of Burn 60’s ingredients work as a proven energy supplement, there is little evidence backing it up as a weight loss supplement.

Conclusion

Although Burn 60 takes an innovative approach, there is little setting it apart from other supplements. With very little information to draw from, it is impossible to know how effective Burn 60 is at promoting natural weight loss in the body. However, it does contain Guarana, a proven energy supplemental ingredient. Take caution when taking this product - the lack of information poses many safety concerns, and some users who have tried guarana in its energy drink capacity report feeling an unpleasant “jittery” sensation comparable to caffeine.

**Our Top Weight Loss Choice**

Top Choice for 2009: Avesil

Avesil is clearly the most promising weight control formula we know of on the market. After looking at hundreds of different purported weight loss supplements, Avesil was the most rigorously researched one that we could find. The foundation behind the Avesil formula was an original scientific research study that incorporated an incredible 284 previously published peer-reviewed clinical studies, many conducted in university research labs. All of the product claims made about Avesil are substantiated by this large volume of research.

Unlike many fad weight loss ingredients (hoodia, acai berry, etc.) which are at best supported by folklore and at worst by pop culture, Avesil is totally rooted in disciplined scientific study. In fact, two research trials conducted on human subjects, later published in highly respected scientific journals, concluded that the primary ingredients in Avesil resulted in an average weight loss of more than 3 times that of a healthy diet and exercise alone.

Customers will notice that the claims made about Avesil are quite reasonable and not the least far-fetched. Simply put, Avesil is a safe, healthy way to promote a significant increase in weight loss when taken in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise. In today's market there is a shamefully high number of consumers who have been deceived by outrageous "no work" promises, manufactured customer testimonials and bogus before/after pictures used by so many marketers of weight loss supplements. Avesil promises to deliver healthy, reasonable, and significant weight loss benefits - all offered through the process of a risk-free trial, leaving customers with very little to lose (other than weight).
