Patentlean Review

What You Should Know

Patentlean is a dietary supplement that focuses on one single ingredient: 3-Acetyl-7-Oxo-dehydroepiandrosteron. Whew! Referred to by the manufacturers as simply “7-Keto” for short, this ingredient is the basis for all of Patentlean’s dramatic weight-loss claims. Unfortunately, it was difficult to find an official manufacturer website or other source of info about Patentlean, which makes us a little uncomfortable. According to the info we could find, Patentlean’s miraculous 7-Keto is a metabolite associated with the naturally occurring adrenal hormone DHEA. According to claims, the 7-Keto found in Patentlean will help to regulate thyroid hormone levels without inducing any of the “jittery” effects that are the result of taking other metabolic enhancers.

Since there is no official retailer for Patentlean that we could find, the price varies from vendor to vendor. On average, Patentlean seems to sell for around $60 for a one month supply, positioning it as an upper-mid-level diet supplement. Patentlean is a capsule supplement and it is intended to be taken twice daily, making a one-month supply 60 capsules.

List of Ingredients

The only ingredient mentioned in Patentlean is the active ingredient 3-Acetyl-7-Oxo-dehydroepiandrosteron. This appears to be a metabolite that is naturally produced by the body.

Other ingredients are unknown.

Product Features

Unfortunately, since there is no official distributor for Patentlean, it was difficult for us to find a complete ingredient list. Though it looks like only early studies have been done on 7-Keto, the metabolite does not appear to effect testosterone or estrogen levels. User reviews seem to imply that Patentlean is “slow-burning”, and many of the reviews also mention that Patentlean was just one piece of a new diet and exercise program that the user was trying.

Patentlean is a diet supplement pill intended for twice daily use. Take Patentlean once in the morning, then again before bed. Patentlean seems to retail for around $27.00 for 15 pills.

Advantages

  • Patentlean does not affect testosterone or estrogen levels.
  • User reviews indicate that Patentlean does not produce the rapid heart rate associate with many metabolic stimulants.
  • Patentlean contains a promising new active ingredient.

Disadvantages

  • We could not find any official manufacturer or web retailer for Patentlean. This means there is no consumer contact info.
  • A course of Patentlean is relatively expensive compared to similar supplements on the market.
  • No money back guarantee.
  • No free product sample.
  • We would like to see more independent research on Patentlean’s active ingredient 3-Acetyl-7-Oxo-dehydroepiandrosteron.

Conclusion

While the Patentlean approach sounds good in theory, we just couldn’t find enough solid info on the pills or on their active ingredient. With so many weight loss supplements on the market, we would choose one with an easy-to-contact, reliable manufacturer. Also, 7-Keto appears to be a third-party ingredient that has been licensed to several different supplement labs. Since it is the only active ingredient in Patentlean, we would hope for something a bit more revolutionary. We certainly do approve of Patentlean’s commitment to zero side-effects, and it does not look like this product will hurt you. However, our readers are looking for positives, not just a lack of negatives, and Patentlean just doesn’t give us enough to go on.

**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).
