    Pretty much..I have taken many of their products with great results. I took only a 3rd of the recommend daily dosage and still lost 30 pounds of fat... I take LIPO-6 now to keep it off ..

    All those diet pills are just amphetamines. It's just a less potent version of meth.

    Look at me... I lost 60 lbs on new crystal hydroxycut!
