Brief Answer:
you'd better avoid oxyelite...

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

the FDA has recalled oxyelite products 3 years ago because they caused various health problems. Please check if your product is one of the those in the following link: http://www.YYYY.gov/newsevents/newsroom/YYYYY/ucm374395.htm
Also please check the following link: http://www.YYYY.gov/Drugs/ResourcesForYou/Consumers/YYYYYY dicineSafely/MedicationHealthFraud/ucm436017.htm

You can find more in the fda.gov website about oxyelite. Surprisingly enough the "hidden" ingredient was fluoxetine. You'd better avoid products which fail to follow the rules, because you can never know which rule they'll choose to disobey and the potential consequences to your health.

Kind Regards!

Brief Answer:
the announced ingredients cannot be commented on...

Detailed Answer:
The ingredients of the new formula are not "drugs", so their effects (and potential interactions) are not documented. Most herbal products do not interact with drugs but some will. The only well-known substance is caffeine. Its quantity is a little more than a cup of coffee.

Brief Answer:
You're welcome...

Detailed Answer:
You're welcome!

From a quick look norcoclaurine contains a common ingredient (higenamine) which is supposed to be a fat burner. The same applies for this formula regarding its scientific documentation but a general advice - if I may - is that you'd better try the more natural methods like consulting a dietitian first and engage in physical activities before trying alternatives like formulas.

Kind Regards!

Sure ,I already do this ;I do exercise and I have a well balanced diet and even though my metabolism is not responding this time ,what is frustrating, I will consider not taking it or taking it for only one month to start with. I will also look for a phisician here in Brasil Thanks

Brief Answer:
contact your doctor to make sure you're healthy...

Detailed Answer:
Some diseases may make the weight loss effort significantly bigger. Hypothyroidism is a very well known condition that does that. It would be good to check with your doctor that you're healthy.

It's great that you exercise and try to improve your diet. This the only regimen that may produce long lasting results. Discipline and continuous effort is required.

I hope you do well with it.

Kind regards!
