The Question:My question is about the supplement "Xenedrine". I've been taken it for about 9 weeks now and have seen a change in my appearance. My question is how long should you take this supplement or is it a supplement you can continue to take as long as you want. The Answer:Xenedrine is a fat burner that relies on the stimulatory effects of certain herbs for its efficacy. It’s pretty potent. Very simply, these types of fat burners ramp up your metabolism to burn more calories even when you are sitting at a desk doing nothing! Here is an exact list of what the product contains.
Acetyl L-Carnitine 100mg
Citrus Aurantium (standardized for 4% synephrine) 125mg
Ginger Root 50mg
Guarana Extract (Standardized for 22% caffeine) 910mg
L-Tyrosine 80mg
MaHuang (standardized for 6% ephedrine) 335mg
Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) 40mg
White Willow Bark (standardized for 15% salicin) 105mg
Xenedrine and all the various "fat burners" out there do work but you really need to cycle these supplements to avoid a down-regulation of your body's natural adrenal stimulants. You should cycle your fat burners with a 2 week on 2 week off cycle. Then, once per year, you can stay on for up to 8 weeks without any negative consequences. You should check with your doctor beforehand, however, to see about blood pressure concerns and any contraindications with other medications.
Don’t feel that you have to take these products to be successful in your fat loss endeavors. Remember, hard training and consistent dieting are the true keys to long term success.
