Zantrex-3




Summary


Zantrex-3 is a diet pill which contains a cocktail of different ingredients. It promises 546% more weight-loss than the leading ephedrine-based diet pill (confirmed in a clinical trial).


 

Description


YES! It's New Zantrex®-3... 546% more weight loss* than the leading ephedrine-based diet pill... and that's a fact. Here's another fact: Zantrex-3 is way beyond ephedrine, way beyond fat-burners, way beyond everything on the market today... Zantrex-3 is a new category of bifurcated weight loss compounds providing both rapid weight loss and incredible energy combined into a single power-packed Super Pill. New Zantrex-3 is so powerful you won't find it in some supermarket next to some "Flintrock" vitamin for kiddies.

Zantrex-3 contains: Niacin, plus a proprietary blend of Yerba Mate (bark), Caffeine, Guarana (seed), Damiana (leaf, stem), Schizopeta (spice), Green Tea (leaf), Piper Nigum (fruit), Tibetan Ginseng, Panax Ginseng (root), Maca Root, Cola Nut, and Thea Sinensis Complex.

Yerba Mate, Caffeine, Guarana, and Cola Nut are stimulants that increase your metabolism, also know as "fat burners". Caffeine is also known to reduce your appetite.

Damiana is a mild mood enhancer (helps with depression). Schizopeta promotes sweating and reduces inflammation. Green Tea has a number of positive health benefits (antioxidant, cancer-prevention, and weight-loss). Ginseng increases energy and reduces stress. Maca Root improves endurance and strength while lowering stress.


History


Has been on market for a number on years now.

The study that shows Zantrex-3 effectiveness consisted of 47 people over 45 days. 15 minutes before every meal, Zantrex-3 was taken with a large glass of water. The average weight loss was 11.3 pounds.


Criticism


May make you jittery, increase lack of sleep

Stimulant-based weight-loss supplements tend to provide only short-term weight loss.

Stimulants increase your heart rate and blood pressure, which can lead to serious health problems or some annoying side-effects like insomnia, nervousness, and irritability.

I would recommend this pill. Many people that i know who've tried this, including myself, have experienced horrible side effects. The main one is the stomach cramps. You literally feel like someone is stabbing you over and over again in the gut. The other effects were diarrhea or vomiting, dizziness and nervousness. I lose 9 pounds on this in about a week, but it wasn't worth the pain, especially since the weight returned shortly after.

I take zantrex 3. I got pass the side effects which were the dizziness and burning,itchy feeling on body nothing else really effected me but i drink green tea too so i am use to caffine, dont know how it would affect those who dont already have caffine in their system but from reveiws that I've read they tend to get sick and have the heart pulpations. But for those of you that can stick through the side affects zantrex3 does work but ya got to give it more then a month or 2. Its funny how people just give up after a month if they dont notice anything. Dont expect immediate results and give up cuz it dont work that way. If you give zantrex3 time to work say bout 2 months then it's like the fat melts off of you without exercise at least for me thats how its been. Others it could work differently seein as how some say they lose 5 pds in a week, personally i dont think it happened that way but hey who i am. Just wanted to put my two cents in cuz i've been takin zantrex3 for awhile and it does work if ya stick to it. The weight loss sneaks up on ya like weight gain does. Hang in there and best wishes. You can do it.

I just started taking Zantrex 3 a few days ago and while I have already lost a few pounds, the stomach cramps and diarrhea are brutal.

Hopefully, this is a side effect that will subside with time.

I started taking Zantrex 3 about 2 1/2 months ago and I have already lost 18 pounds. Granted I am an avid tea drinker so the side effects did not bother me. If you can stick to it and are somewhat healthy before you begin taking it than I would definately reccommend this product.

I also have experienced stomach cramps & sick to my stomach most of the day. I will try it for a few more days but if that continues then it is not worth it. I have read more negative results than positive.

I WOULD RECOMMEND IT; I LOST 50 POUNDS IN JUST 2 MONTHS ON IT; I COMBINED IT WITH A LOW CARB DIET; NO EXERCISING AT ALL AND LOST WEIGHT; I DID THE NO CARB THING FOR THE FIRST TWO WEEKS; THEN LOW CARB (UNDER 20 CARBS A DAY) FOR A WEEK; THEN I ATE SMALL PORTIONS OF FOOD FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEKS (I ATE SMALL SAUCER ONLY; AFTER THAT I ATE LIKE I WANTED TO AND THE WEIGHT
WAS JUST FALLING OFF EVEN AFTER I STOPPED TAKING THE PILLS; TOOK PILLS FOR ABOUT 1 MONTH

I've ben abusing diet pills since I was 15, and now I'm 17. I took zantrex 3 in oct of 2006 and by december of 2006 I lost 10 pounds which was so cool. after awhile tho, it stopped taking affect, I stopped becomming insanely hyper after taking it and actually started 2 get tired. it made me so cranky and irritable after awhile too, my parents actually thought I had gotten bi-polar disorder . people also told me tht I cud get cancer from diet pills, particularly kidney, thyroid or liver. tht scared the hell out of me, so I researched all the ingredients. turns out the insane amt of niacin leads to loss in vision (which already happened 2 me) caffiene led 2 occasional heart palpatations (which happened to me.. VERY scary) and yerba mate is really bad 4u too I forgot wat it does tho, but now I gained about 7 out of the 10 pounds back and I turned bak 2 zantrex 3 .. I guess ill giv it another shot but I think I'm literally immune 2 caffiene now.

Do not take this product, i was happy with zantrex when i was taking it but i started to need more and more to get that same rush, and now i have chrons disease. It is not worth it. Using zantrex3 can have serious long term effects. Go the old fashion way and hope on a tredmill because where i am now just isnt worth it.

I didn't know the side effects would be so extreme. At first I thought I had the flu. I took only 2 pills 4 days ago and still am off work due to the uncontrollable diahhrea. Even Imodium wouldn't help! Like one of the other comments here, at times I couldn't make it to the bathroom from my bed. I called my Dr today to get some help. The first night I had HORRIBLE chills and have had nausea ever since. Also have stomach cramps & sick to my stomach most of the day. Have lost weight but don't dare touch any more pills. It's been a horrible experience after just 2 pills in one day!

I would not recommend Zantrex because of the side effects. I only took one pill in the morning, before breakfast, and a few hours later I was vomiting. At first I thought I had a virus, but after I stopped taking zantrex the nausea, dizziness and vomiting went away. Does anyone know why or which one of the ingredients would cause these symptoms?

I just started taking Zantrex 3 yesterday, and so far so good! I have alot more energy, my appetite has decreased, and it may sound crazy but I already lost 1.5 pounds...I am sticking to it!
I took Alli for 4 months, and lost 4 pounds in that time frame...and it was $80 a bottle. It was a waste of time for me.
I loved Xenadrine with ephedra, and I feel like I am on the same path with Zantrex 3.
This is great stuff!!

I like Zantrex 3. I have only been taking it four a week but after the first few days the side affects started to fade away.I did not drink any caffiene and ate a very healthy diet consisting of veggies and baked or grilled chicken. Also tuna with mustard. Taking this product gave me a lil bit of the jitters but I got over it. Just take one in the morning and eat a small but healthy breakfast and tuna or grilled chicken and veggies for lunch and dinner. Drink plenty of water. Good product but one pill a day makes it better.

I've been on Zantrex 3 for six days now. The first three days were rough as I was jittery and EXTREMELY irritable. Yesterday and today have been good, although a bit more irritable. No weight loss yet but I'm keeping my hopes high!

just ordered today ...

so, do I understand correctly: take 2 pills 30 minutes before main meals but must be 8 hours between each dose? So, if I take with lunch at 1pm, I shouldn't have dinner until 9pm??! Can anyone who has had success give me a timeline as to when and how much you take?

Thanks!

Trying to lose 30 pounds.

This pill gives you an incredible amount of energy. However I am super jittery from it but hopefully it will pass. Britney Spears took this when she was younger and look at that body, thats why im sticking to it~

I have used zantrex for years (off and on). It has helped me to drop some lbs. But to be honest, I sometimes use it for energy, because I really do not care to drink coffee. I have gotten over some of the side effects. Sometimes, I will not use it for a few days, and just use it right before I work out or play tennis---only.

I started taking Zantrex-3 about a month ago. I have the worst side effects. I stopped taking them a while back but i'am still suffering from the side effects. If anyone else had this problem could you please tell me how long it lasted.

I started with Zantrex-3 today and I think im going to stick to one pill a day, After reading some of the comments, sounds like a lot of them over did the consumption of the product. One pill in the morning and healthy meals throughout the day and I don't think I will be crapping all over and throwing up all over like some others were.

I just started taking Zantrex 3 today and I took one at lunch & was fine but then I took two at dinner and now feel really dizzy. I think those like myself who are new to this pill should stick to 2 or 3 pills a day ( if you eat a big breakfest). I ate a lean cusine with two pills and that's when I got really dizzy. hope this helped, ill see if I loose weight this week!

Im 16 and im taking Zantrex 3. Its pretty good so far except for the side effects,I cant stand the smell of food now.But I think its gonna work because my mom was taking them and she went from a size 18 to a size 14 in just two in a half or three months.Once the side effects wear off your pretty good to go.

I'm bipolar and found that this drug tipped me over to the mania range...it can be addictive since I have experienced more depression than mania over the years. I love that I don't eat my entire portion of food and have the energy to clean my house (usually I just called myself a couch potato). I have been known to have migraines and this drug's caffiene level can sometimes affect how I feel the next day. It is a love/hate thing with this drug. Britney Spears got diagnosed with bipolar so it is funny that it is mentioned that she liked this drug...it definately keeps you feeling "up".

i started talking zantrex 3 on sunday 3 days ago.. i took 2 15mins before breakfast around 10am and still felt up at 11pm the same day.. i didnt dare take any more that day.. on monday i took 2 before breakfast and 2 before lunch.. around dinner time i felt horrible. i didnt take anymore after that. i was coming down i suppose. i got a head ache and stomach ache. these weird emotional feelings came over me without any reason. i started crying and have no idea why. i had trouble falling asleep which i never do. i woke up tired. i didnt take any more pills till about 8pm on tuesday since i felt back to "normal" again. i dont feel bad. i feel full of energy but i do get annoyed by the itching from the niacin i suppose. not bad i do feel much better than the last 2 days. tomorrow i will take 1 before each meal. then work my way up to 2 before each meal. im going to stick to it and see if it actually works.

I am disappointed because nowhere on the package does it say if you have high blood pressure you should not take this pill. I think the company should post more info on their packaging.
