ANSWER:No. Hydroxycut is a water pill. It makes you lose water weight by making you pee more. All you lose is water weight, not fat.

NO, it is not a diuretic ("water pill"). It is a fat burner marketed by Muscle Tech. It is claimed that the combination of caffeine and other herbal extracts will lower appetite and increase energy, thus leading to the ability to increase the rate of fat loss. Some of the ingredients in hydroxycut may have a diuretic effect but there is not sufficient testing on supplements to confirm this.

There are no steroids in Hydroxycut.

Hydroxycut is basically caffeine, and extracts of of fruit and plants that are supposed to be high in antioxidants, vitamin C and caffeine. That is it. The main ingredient is caffeine anhydrous which is simply dehydrated caffeine.

Hydroxycut is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration as a safe and proven weight loss drug. They will not seek approval from the FDA because their "clinical studies" cannot meet the standards of required "clinical trials". In other words they cannot achieve the weight loss they claim in a regulated trial other than their own.

You can get the same effect by having a cup of coffee or a caffeine drink and a bowl of berries.

Most of these diet pills use the "price point" mentality to market to consumers. "Well it's only $20 or $30". But that is only a 7 or 10 day supply depending on which product you buy so it is $90 to $120 a month!

I am sure you get tired of hearing it - we all do. But a healthy diet of whole fresh foods from all the food groups and exercise are the only program that works.

Trust me, with 2/3 of US adults now overweight if someone had a diet pill that actually worked I would be investing every dime I had in the company.

Good luck and good health.
