Is there more to it than caffeine

[Beth]

I was wondering if it's only the caffeine in Phentramin-d that offers weight loss benefits. Is there any other active ingredient that could also help/support my weight loss efforts? If so, what does it do and are there any side effects related to this/these ingredients that I should know about?

It also contains PEA and synephrine which are also stimulants. It looks like it would be a pretty good fat burner and energy booster. So yeah, caffeine isn't the only ingredient in it that's likely to work.

There's always side effects to everything you take, which is why you should really do your research so you know what you're putting in your body. Caffeine can increase your risk of insomnia, anxiety, jitteriness, nervousness, anxiety, headache and a whole bunch of other things. That said, whether or not you experience these symptoms pretty much depends on how much caffeine your taking and your sensitivity to this stimulant.

As for the other ingredients, synephrine, works to boost caffeine - both it's good and bad side effects. Again, while this may not bother you, for some people it can increase the risk of the side effects I've mentioned above or lead to ones that are far more serous like elevated blood pressure and even heart attack. As I said, you need to take care before you put anything in your body. Just because a product might do wonders for one person, it could seriously harm another.

So let me get this straight, synephrine boosts the effects of caffeine? Doesn't that mean that this pill will cause even more fat burning?

Yes, but it will also increase your risk of other bad side effects, which can make it not worth it for some people to take. I'm not saying that this is necessarily a bad product, but you need to think about what you're putting in your body, what it can potentially do and then talk to your doctor about it.

A very good point 1000kw I will keep this in mind. That said, I do want to add that so far I've been taking it and I've been handling it pretty well. That said, I don't eat or drink any other stimulants (ex. caffeine). I just take the pills as directed and I don't take them in the late afternoon. So far so good :)
