If Xenadrine weight loss capsules work for you, then their drinks should as well. They’ve included the same ingredients as their weight loss time released capsules, into powder form and market it as a weight loss drink.   There is impressive data on this one. One study conducted with people using the main ingredients in Xenadrine RFA-1, they averaged a 12-15 lb weight loss, as compared to only a 3 lb weight loss using a placebo. However, weight loss studies can be a complicated because so many factors can affect weight loss and are impossible to be completely controlled.

The Key Ingredients in Xenadrine RFA-1

• Garcinia cambogia:  In studies where this ingredient was used on animals, it appeared there was a connection between this ingredient and weight lost.  It also showed to decrease appetite in the same animal studies.  Whether this can be extrapolated to human studies is being determined.   It is thought that this ingredient can inhibit excess carbohydrates to be stored as fat.  If it truly can, then people who are particularly sensitive to carbohydrates, releasing too much insulin at a meal, can benefit with weight loss from this ingredient.  Not all people have the same reactions to carbohydrates, so this may not be helpful to everyone.
• chromium polynicotinate:  This ingredient has become known for its beneficial response to reducing blood sugar.  Chromium improves the effectiveness of insulin so blood sugars are always low.  This has many benefits.  A study in athletes showed use of chromium polynicotinate reduced their body fat by 21%, and increased muscle mass by 42%.    It’s also been shown to improve the cholesterol ration, which gives more credit to the effect of insulin and blood sugar on cholesterol.  Chromium polynicotinate has been used in many weight loss supplements as well as alone to curb appetite and reduce cravings.
• Gymnema sylvestre: This interesting herb can not only lower blood sugar, but also reduce the cravings for sugar.  The herb can actually change the taste of sugar, blocking the sugar receptors on the tongue, so people aren’t interested in eating the sugar laden food.   They claim this effect can last up to 2 hours.

Pro’s

• If Xenadrine is a product you have used and has worked for weight loss, this drink should too.
• It’s only 5 calories for the drink.
• 0 sugar, and lot’s of minerals.

Con’s

• Contains artificial flavors and sweeteners.
• It is a stimulant with caffeine and willow bark.  If you don’t like stimulants, you won’t like this product.
•  This product encourages weight loss with its ingredients that affect cravings and appetite. 

Conclusion

A weight loss drink should help you reduce your cravings, burn fat, and control your appetite.  Some studies have shown that the key ingredients in this product really work, especially when taken over a period of time to allow the ingredients to build up in the cells. People are losing weight and cravings for carbohydrates and sugars go down. I think this is a product that is worth a try.  You can buy it at most major shopping centers, like Walgreens, or online.  Most likely to see the most benefits however; you would want to give this product a try for a few weeks, and not just have one drink.
