Meltdown Review

What You Should Know

VPX Meltdown is a “kitchen sink” type of weight loss aid, meaning that it does not focus on one theory of weight loss but mixes several ingredients with different effects. VPX Meltdown is marketed to men but would work equally as well on women.

According to VPX Meltdown’s marketing, it will increase mental clarity, and burn fat at an unprecedented rate. VPX uses ingredients meant to increase metabolism, burn fat, and suppress cravings all in the same product. We’ll have a closer look at the ingredients in VPX Meltdown below to see if it is likely to be able to deliver on those promises.

We were unable to locate an official website for VPX Meltdown which concerns us. The highest-rated weight loss aids produce dedicated websites that thoroughly explain the product. We will be relying on descriptions drafted by third party online retailers. We did not find any indication of a manufacturer’s money-back guarantee or product samples available before purchase. VPX Meltdown retails for around $37 for 40 pills. At the suggestion ingestion rate of 1-2 pills 2-3 times per day, a bottle would last 6-20 days which makes the monthly cost quite expensive compared with competitive products.

Ingredients

According to several third part retailers, the ingredients in VPX Meltdown are Caffeine Anhydrous, M-TTA (Methyl Tetradecythioaetic Acid), Yerba Mate Extract, 3′-5′-cAMP (3′-5′-Cyclic Adenosine Monophosphate), Methyl-Synephrine HCI, R-beta-Methylphenylethylamine, N-Methyl-beta-Phenylethylamine, 11-Hydroxy Yohimbine, Yohimbine HCI, alpha-Yohimbine, and Methyl-Hordenine HCI.

Product Features

VPX Meltdown claims that it has developed some of the ingredients in its own laboratories and that this is why the product is so effective. However, without clinical testing being written up in a respected and peer-reviewed journal, there is no way to confirm those claims. We do like to see that thermogenesis is one of the weight loss methods targeted by VPX Meltdown. Thermogenesis is a process in the body that generates heat, increases metabolism, and breaks down adipose (fat) tissue. Caffeine is a common thermogenic ingredient in weight loss products and it is in VPX Meltdown along with Yerba Mate, a rainforest plant that contains a gentler form of caffeine.

VPX Meltdown also contains methyl-synephrine, a chemical cousin to the now-banned ingredient, ephedra, a powerful appetite suppressant. None of the other ingredients in VPX Meltdown peak our interest as many are common weight loss aid ingredients.

Advantages

  • Contains proven thermogenic ingredients.
  • Widely available from online retailers.

Disadvantages

  • No official web presence.
  • No money-back guarantee.
  • No links to clinical trials supporting the effectiveness of the product or its ingredients.

Conclusion

We find VPX Meltdown to be a middle-of-the-pack weight loss aid. We would have been more impressed if it had contained green tea extract along with the caffeine as both work together synergistically. Keep in mind that if you do choose to try this product, you may not be able to get your money back if it doesn’t meet your expectations.

**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).
