Dear Google, We Need To Talk…

Dear Google,
It’s about your search results. We need to talk…

For my visitors who aren’t already aware, our site has seen a significant dip in the google search results starting on Aug. 1, 2018.

Google routinely updates their search results, sometimes as much as several times a day.

This particular update (dubbed the “Medic Update” by some) had a massive effect on the search results, specifically in the health niche.

I can understand their rationale completely.

For a long time, there were plenty of sites that were ranking for heavily searched medical-like terms, that probably should not have been.

I get it…

They have a responsibility to their customers (you, the google searcher) to present the most reliable, informative, and accurate result to your query possible.

With all that said, there’s been some strange results popping up when I run searches for keywords I used to rank for.

In many cases, I’ve been coming across things like:

404 Errors
Blank Pages
Redirects to totally different sites
Extremely thin pages
Redirects to “buy cheap viagra” type sites
Porn images showing up
Etc.

These are not isolated incidents, and they are also not happening on deep pages in the results.

In fact, they’re almost ALL happening on Page 1 of the results, and for literally 100’s of searches I’ve personally conducted.

In many cases, these bad search results have almost completely taken over the page 1 results.

I’ve made a video demonstrating these very searches, check it out below:

There are a ton of search results that I did not include in the video, simply because of time restrictions.

Here are some other examples:

(note:All searches were conducted with a google incognito tab, logged out, and with a VPN. They’ve also been verified by several acquaintances in various locations throughout the US. So no, my computer is not hacked 🙂

Keyword: arthrozene reviews

This is a joint relief supplement I wrote about awhile back.

Our review is rich, and full of content regarding nearly everything there is to know about this supplement.

I’ve personally tested the product myself, and had an older gentleman named Jim test it out as part of our STEPuP program. The purpose of that was to determine if there were major differences between the effects it would have on younger adults (like my 37 year old self), and older adults (Jim is 66 years old).

We have 17 real reviews from users who have taken the product, linked to from the top of the page.

We’ve even had the content on the page medically reviewed for accuracy by Dr. Helen Okoye, our in-house medical reviewer.

When I think ‘user intent” for this particular keyword, I think only one thing…

Searchers are looking for real reviews of this particular product.

If you search the term “arthrozene reviews”, this is what you see in the Top 10 results:

3 of the 10 results have nothing to do with the product at all, as well 2 of the youtube videos in the carousel.

The first unrelated result (Amazon) is for a completely different product called Vital 3 Joint Solution.

The second unrelated result (Consumerreports.org) is an outdated article from 2013 that makes no mention of the product named Arthrozene.

Further down the page, in the 5th, 9th, and 10th spots, we have completely (almost) irrelevant pages showing up.

My review is pinned to the bottom of the page in the #8 spot.

For someone searching for real reviews of Arthrozene, this is not helping their cause.

This is somewhat related to the next search…

Keyword: Wachsen Riesig reviews

So Wachsen Riesig was a supplement I actually received a mailer on last month (October), of which I wrote a complete review on here.

Apart from the mailer (and one lone BBB complaint), there was virtually no information about this supplement available online.

I wrote the best possible review with the limited information I had.

If you look at the review, this particular company uses extremely vulgar marketing materials to push their product.

And I specifically called them out on that, along with many of their claims.

If you run a search for wachsen riesig reviews on google, this is what shows up.

Just like with the Arthrozene review search, the first several results have nothing to do with the search.

The first result is an Amazon listing for a completely different product (which isn’t even available, btw), and unrelated articles on CBSNews.com and WebMD.com.

My review is in the #5 position.

Keyword: shark tank ed pill

For the past year or so, certain unsavory marketers have been pushing a fake ad about some miracle testosterone booster, weight loss pill, even wrinkle creams being seen on the TV show “Shark Tank”.

The ads look like this:

And lead to pages that look like this:

The reality is, these two “sisters” (who aren’t even sisters) did NOTdevelop some miracle testosterone booster / ed pill / weight loss supplement.

I’ve already outed them extensively in this article and this article.

Searchers looking to find out info on this particular product may search several terms.

For example, when I run a search for “shark tank ed pill”, this shows up in the #2 position:

Which, if you click on it, what you’ll see is them pushing the exact same B.S. narrative…

That there was some miracle supplement that landed a huge deal on the show.

This is simply NOT true!

If the searcher clicks on their result before mine, you could almost certainly bet that a good % of the searchers will believe what piop.net says before learning the truth.

Unfortunately, our exposé has been pinned in the #3 spot for a couple of months now.

As a matter of fact, we routinely expose similar types of scams, including:

Keyword: conor mcgregor supplements fox news

I exposed this particular scam back in June of 2017, click here to read up on it.

If you search for the term ‘conor mcgregor supplements fox news’, you’ll see another site ranking right up at the top.

If you click on that result (which most people do), they go into this long story about how Conor McGregor used 2 supplements called Power Testo Blast and Power Muscle Blast.

It’s 100% fake…

In fact, the only supplement McGregor has ever claimed to have used publicly was BSN Syntha-6 Edge, which he briefly mentioned in a Muscle & Fitness interview.

Further down the results, we have this site perpetuating almost the exact same thing.

On this particular url, they claim he is taking a hiatus from the UFC because he was taking some banned supplement named Stamimax.

Again, simply not true…

Where’s our review exposing the scam?

In the #5 spot…

I have literally dozens of other Exposés like this, here’s just a few of them:

Denzel Washington And Dr. Phil Did NOT Develop Some ED Pill

Terry Bradshaw ED Pill

Anna And Samantha Martin Were NOT On Shark Tank

No, Morgan Freeman Did NOT Use That ED Pill

No, Zac Efron Did NOT Use Those Supplements

Keyword: evolution lean keto

This is another supplement that uses deceptive marketing to push their product.

Just like with many of the others, they’ve been pushing the “Shark Tank Weight Loss” narrative.

We outed the whole thing in an exposéwe published on October 15th.

Yet, if you search something like “evolution lean keto shark tank“, you’ll see nothing but sites perpetuating the scam.

Further down the results we have 2 Amazon listings that have nothing to do with the product, a blank page, and another url that perpetuates the scam.

So where is my exposé warning people about this particular scam?

Where else but Page 5 of the results:

Keyword: over the counter viagra

When I think “user intent” for this particular keyword, I think 2 things…

Someone is literally searching for a way to buy viagra over the counter (as in, in a store like CVS, Walgreens, etc.)
Since buying Viagra over the counter is not legal (or recommended, even if you did find someone selling it!), the user is searching for an “herbal equivalent”.

Here are the problem results:

When you click that result, this is what you see:

It’s a very heavily keyword stuffed page, that really doesn’t provide any credible info on the search at all.

What’s worse is, as you scroll a bit down the page, you’ll see a popup show up.

If you try to X it out, the entire page redirects and I get a malware warning from my virus protection software.

Here’s a screencast:

Further down the page, you’ll see another similar result.

While this page doesn’t redirect, it’s clearly a keyword-stuffed page that does not provide any credible information.

See for yourself here.

Below that you have the following:

Well, “hotelmiramare.com” redirects to a totally different site selling fake Viagra.

See for yourself:

Re-purposed URLs Popping Up Everywhere

Another thing I’ve noticed was the resurgence of expired domains popping up.

For example, one product I’ve written about extensively is a supplement called Vigrx Plus.

If you search the term “vigrx plus reviews“, the very first result that shows is a domain name called mbpi.org.

If you look at the history of this particular url on Archive.org, you’ll see that it used to be an environmental assessment website.

In that same search you’ll see a site called “Hawaii-conference.com” showing up in the #5 spot.

This particular url was redirected to a site called uhhconferencecenter.com, and had a ton of legit backlinks going to it.

Those backlinks are what drive this particular url (and mbpi.org) to the top of the search results, not the quality of their content.

Another site I’ve seen popping up all over the place is envisionsolutionsnow.com.

This site used to be a full-service healthcare marketing communications consulting firm.

Now it’s a supplement review site that shows up for terms like “vitapulse reviews”

“andro 400 reviews”

and “zyrexin reviews”

Other sites I’ve been seeing getting away with the exact same thing include:

ahcafr.com, which was originally an “Arkansas Health Protection Guide”.

Interstitialarts.org, which used to be a site about Artists without borders

Brightfuturesforfamilies.org, which was originally a “national initiative for families and communities to promote and improve the health and well-being of children of all ages”.

elasticss.com, which was a blog about elastic CSS framework of all things.

mynvfi.org, which was originally the National Vitiligo Foundations website.

And the list goes on and on…

This technique of buying expired domains and re-purposing them is nothing new. It’s been going on for as long as I can remember, I’m just very surprised to see this particular tactic working in 2018.

Conclusion

I could go on and on and on about this…

I’m not exactly sure why google is ranking these types of sites, especially the ones in the video.

Are they relying too much on links?

My suspicion is yes, they are.

For the longest time, whenever SupplementCritique.com experienced a traffic drop like this in the past, there was always one way around it: Write better content and make a better site.

We’ve always strived to “do our best” and “do it the right way”, and make it a point to write informative, well-researched, and fun articles and reviews.

However, with results like these showing up, I’m really not sure I could write anything better than I already have.

It’s very disheartening to see results like these popping up, especially considering all the near-daily positive feedback in the form of emails and comments we get thanking us for “saving them” from a potentially dangerous or financially draining product.

Here’s just a few of the more recent ones:

We’ve written numerous articles informing those who have been sucked in by a free trial, debunking potentially dangerous myths about ‘permanent enlargement pills‘, and countless others.

Despite the setbacks, I’ll continue to do my very best at helping you find the best supplements possible.

I always try to find a way to turn a black cloud into a silver lining, and this time is no different.

Membrane Integrity Factor Review

Membrane Integrity Factor Overview

Getting old is the pits.

Wrinkles, joint pain, apathy, saggy boobs, a failing sense of direction.

And there’s really no getting around it.

…Or is there?

When a company comes out and says they’ve found “a scientific breakthrough to anti-aging,” well, we can’t help but hear them out. Because what if?

What if they caught lightening in a bottle, so to speak, and somehow stumbled upon the perfect formula to stop aging?

Despite what Membrane Integrity Factor says, here is no such thing as the fountain of youth, so head for the fountain of bacon — Image: memebase.cheezburger.com

(Fountain of youth jokes never get old.

See what I did there? 😉

Alright, so I’m just gonna burst the bubble right here and now.

There is no such thing as a fountain of youth, anti-aging product that truly works to stop the process of growing old.

But you knew that.

Reversing or off-setting the effects that time and aging has on our bodies is of course not possible, and while certain aspects of the process are undesirable, who would really want to turn the clock back if given the chance?

While some creams, lotions, pills and serums may help to tighten the skin, reduce the wrinkles, and even alleviate pain, you will never stop aging.

Sorry.

BUT… can we slow down the aging process?

Recently I came across an ad on Yahoo for a product called Membrane Integrity Factor.

They offer up some pretty crazy claims, like this one…

“Aging used to be thought of as an inevitable process.

Now doctors and scientists alike think of aging as something that can be slowed down and sometimes reversed.”

Hmmm. Seems a little fishy.

So I had to dig in to Membrane Integrity Factor to learn what it’s all about.

Could it really have properties that slow and reverse aging?

If not, is it at least good for us in some way?

In this review I answer all of your burning questions about this supposed scientific breakthrough product.

What is Membrane Integrity Factor?

Well… it’s a pill.

And it has two main ingredients: 2AEP and HGHR.

We’ll cover these in the next section, but right now I want to briefly discuss the so-called brains behind the product, and what Membrane Integrity Factor claims it will do for you.

So it (allegedly) all started with a German doctor named Hans Alfred Nieper.

Who is Dr. Nieper?

The fine folks at Membrane Integrity Factor have a WHOLE page dedicated to the now-deceased doctor.

So you would think that this Dr. Nieper was the guy who created the product…

Nope.

Or at least a leading scientist behind the formula…

Nope!

Or is somehow — in some way — affiliated with Membrane Integrity Factor.

Dr. Nieper is not affiliated with Membrane Integrity Factor in any way — Image: teepublic.com

The makers of the product picked some random doctor from Germany (who died last century) to be their front-man and the product’s inventor.

By now, red flags are probably raised in anyone that cares about the integrity of the things that they decide to put in their body.

They literally wrote on the box: “Formulated by Hans A. Nieper, MD.

You can’t do that.

But jokes on them because I’m gonna systematically dismantle their every bogus claim so we can get to the truth of the matter.

Here are some of the claims that the makers of the product essentially shovel at the reader.

According to the website, “Membrane Integrity Factor® delivers essential nutrients to our outer cell walls using a patented ‘Mineral Carrier’ to seal and protect them (Which Prevents Aging).”

So what is this magic ingredient that prevents aging? And how exactly does it work?

Let’s have a look at the ingredients.

What are the Membrane Integrity Factor ingredients?

To understand the Membrane Integrity Factor, we have to first get acquainted with Calcium 2-aminoethylphosphate (2-AEP), and to a lesser extent, HGHR.

2-AEP– This “vital component in the structure of cell membranes… has beenshown to help maintain cell membrane integrity and improve cellular functions.” (Source)

2-AEP is the main ingredient in Membrane Integrity Factor anti-aging pills — Image: en.wikipedia.org

2-AEP was actually discovered by Erwin Chargaff in the early 1940’s, and it was later patented by Hans Alfred Nieper and Franz Kohler.

It’s essentially a mineral transporter, which functions like so…

“[2-AEP] goes into the outer layer of the outer cell membrane where it releases its associated mineral and is itself metabolized with the structure of the cell membrane.

The effect here is an increase of the electrical condenser function of cell membranes to resist toxins and viruses which may otherwise enter the cell and cause cellular degeneration.” (Source)

Membrane Integrity Factor supposedly works at the cellular level — Image: www.news-medical.net

And according to Nutrition Review, 2-AEP has been shown to support everything from multiple sclerosis to diabetes, to asthma and immune disorders. (Source)

The makers of Membrane Integrity Factor don’t disclose how much of the ingredient is contained in the pills.

On to our next ingredient… HGHR.

The Human Growth Hormone Receptor, or HGH, is what regulates things like muscle and bone growth, metabolism, and possibly heart function (Source).

Unfortunately, this critical hormone naturally declines as we get older.

The Human Growth Hormone, or HGH, is an ingredient in Membrane Integrity Factor — Image: webmd.com

According to WebMD, some use HGH much like anabolic steroids — “in an attempt to build muscle and improve athletic performance.

Yet HGH’s effect on athletic performance is unknown.” (Source)

Dang right it’s unknown.

In fact, Harvard did a study on the efficacy of HGH for building muscle composition and athletic performance, and they claim it isn’t shown to have any effect whatsoever (Source).

So if it can’t really help people in the here and now, how can it slow the effects of aging and make you live longer into the future?

Who are we to believe?

Membrane Integrity Factor, or WebMD and Harvard?

Exactly.

How I know Membrane Integrity Factor is Bogus

Anytime a company boldly claims that they’ve discovered the fountain of youth, you just have to be skeptical.

As for Membrane Integrity Factor, there is no research to back up their promises.

While the ingredients 2-AEP and HGH might help to protect you from toxins and rejuvenate your cells, there is no way they can slow the effects of aging, let alone reverse the effects altogether.

Membrane Integrity Factor reverse aging pills — Image: freebiechest.com

And it’s sad, because there are countless shady companies like this one just taking people’s hard-earned money left and right.

But a little up-front research goes a long way.

In fact…

WebMD came out with a brilliant article on how to spot anti-aging scams.

WebMD wrote a great article on how to spot anti-aging scams like Membrane Integrity Factor — Image: webmd.com

The article details the 15 warning signs to look out for.

I wasn’t surprised to learn that Membrane Integrity Factor checks off just about every box, including…

#3 –Usage of phrases such as “scientific breakthrough,” “exclusive product,” “secret ingredient,” or “active remedy.”

#6 – Attempts to convey credibility, such as wearing white lab coats and stethoscopes, posing with microscopes, claiming to be a medical doctor or referring to “academies” and “institutes.”

#7 – Not mentioning potential side effects and making claims that sound too good to be true.

#8 – Using simplistic rationales; anti-aging quacks claim that that the answer is as simple as manipulating a single hormone.

#12 – Telling misleading interpretations of studies or outright lies about effectiveness.

And the list goes on.

Look, you just can’t turn back the biological clock.

There is no such thing.

Membrane Integrity Factor Reviews

The product gets a pretty decent 3.9 stars on Amazon.com.

However, things aren’t always as they seem.

I ran the Amazon listing through my fake-review-spotter tool and found that “Unnatural reviews are possible.”

Membrane Integrity Factor potentially has fake reviews — Image: reviewmeta.com

And with only 6 reviews total, I don’t believe they can be trusted.

Especially this one…

That just screams F.A.K.E.

But I did come across this next membrane integrity factor review that could be real.

He (or she) goes into detail about his sister using the product (which is weird), but then talks about his own experience using it.

He noticed an increase in energy while taking it… but doesn’t mention if he got any younger. 😉

The reason it might be a real review is because he complains about the price and how it took 6+ months to start kicking in.

Finally, the product’s website has a full page of testimonials, but they are all 100% glowing, of course.

Membrane Integrity Factor FAQ’s

Anafuse FAQ's — flippingmath.wordpress.com

Who makes Membrane Integrity Factor?

That’s a great question.

On the official website’s ‘Contact’ page, they list a physical address in Oxnard, CA. But unfortunately, the “makers” of the product would rather remain anonymous.

Hmmm, wonder why.

But after a little investigative work, I was able to find the company behind membrane integrity factor.

Deep in their FAQ page, they say that customers can expect to see a charge from “Healthy Techniques” on their credit card statement.

So I looked ’em up.

Nothing really to report here.

Just a low-budget website with a few products ranging from fat burners, to male sex enhancers, and even some gut health pills.

How do I use Membrane Integrity Factor?

They don’t say how to take the pills.

I imagine you take one pill in the morning with a meal. But I could be wrong.

I’m sure the instructions are on the label.

Are there any side effects with Membrane Integrity Factor?

Adderall comes with it's own side effects, like headache and nervousness — Image: emergency.com.au

There’s really no telling.

The company isn’t completely transparent about how much of which ingredients the pills contain.

But I do know that HGH is known to cause some side effects.

According to one study, “HGH recipients experienced a high rate of side effects, including fluid retention, joint pain, breast enlargement, and carpal tunnel syndrome.” (Source)

Is it safe to take?

Again, the company that makes membrane integrity factor doesn’t share the full ingredient profile.

This means we don’t know exactly what’s in the stuff.

Although it’s probably perfectly safe to take, I can’t say for certain one way or the other.

And that’s just the thing with these types of “scientific breakthrough” offers. They purposefully hide the ingredients. Why?

Because if people like me knew exactly what was in them, we could go point-by-point on just how ineffective the product is.

There’s a simple lesson to be learned… if they don’t list ingredients, you don’t buy.

Is it really anti-aging?

Is Membrane Integrity Factor really anti-aging? — Image: pinterest.com

No, despite the claims that Membrane Integrity Factor can “slow the aging process,” and sometimes “reverse it”… that’s just not reality.

The formula doesn’t contain anything that can achieve this.

Best-case-scenario from taking these so-called “anti-aging” pills is that your energy improves and maybe you begin to feel younger.

But don’t count on it.

Is it a scam?

Is Pharmacy RX One a scam? — Image: beststayhomejobs.com

Yes, I believe it is a scam.

Remember that WebMD article about how to spot an anti-aging scam?

Well, Membrane Integrity Factor didn’t exactly pass the test.

In fact, they failed miserably.

Sure they might look legit from the outside looking in.

I won’t lie, their sales page/website is pretty damn impressive.

But the claims just don’t hold water.

If you have to resort to lying to your potential customers to make a sale, your offer is “a dishonest scheme”… the very definition of a scam.

Where to buy it?

At this point, you probably don’t want to purchase these “anti-aging” pills.

And who could blame you?!

You probably don't want to buy Membrane Integrity Factor — Image: google.com/url

However, if you insist, you can buy Membrane Integrity Factor straight from the company’s website.

You can also get the product on Amazon.com, and other online retailers.

How much is it?

A one-month supply costs $52.49 straight from the manufacturer.If you buy on Amazon, you’re looking at about $70. That’s not cheap.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes… you can “buy with confidence,” as the company offers a 60-day 100% money-back guarantee with every membrane integrity factor purchase.

But notice how they change their tune here.

They market the product as an anti-aging pill, and explicitly claim that their product can essentially turn back the clock.But the guarantee says nothing about this — because they cannot guarantee it!

Recommendation

We’ve seen that Membrane Integrity Factor claims that it can slow the aging process and even reverse it, and help you to think more clearly.

But looking at the ingredients, we’ve highlighted all the ways that this cannot possibly be true.

The company lies in their marketing, saying that Dr. Nieper is the inventor of this anti-aging pill, and they’re far from transparent about their formula.

Anamax is filled with lies — Image: workplacepsychology.net

The price is pretty outrageous for what you get, the user reviews may or may not be authentic, and there is the possibility that the pill isn’t safe to take.

All in all, Membrane Integrity Factor is a text-book scam, so I cannot recommend the product.

It’s just another product that promises the world, but delivers very little.

You’re much better off trying a so-called anti-aging product that under-promises and over-delivers.

No, Terry Bradshaw Did NOT Use Alpha Titan, Alpha TRT, Or Verutum RX!

Did Terry Bradshaw Create Alpha Titan, Alpha TRT, or Verutum RX?

Fat Chance!

I had someone ask me just yesterday if I had ever heard of a supplement called Alpha Titan Testo.

Up until this point I didn’t, but I did take a quick look and determined that it was most likely a scam.

Then, today I get 3 separate emails from 3 individuals asking if I ever heard of a supplement called Alpha TRT.

That one I actually have a review of, and sent the people to it.

I asked them where they heard about it, and they told me there was some ad on some site that said he used it to ‘cure’ his ED.

The final nail in the coffin was when my developer sent me a message telling me he saw a Terry Bradshaw ad on a news site.

Ok, clearly something is going on here.

I started digging a bit further, and that’s when I saw it:

This ad is plastered all over the Yahoo news home page, and when you click on it you’re seemingly led to a page that looks like CNN.

I say “seemingly” because in fact it is NOT the CNN website.

But first, a little bit about Terry.

Does Terry Bradshaw Really Have ED?

Throughout this entire article (link to it here so you can see the whole thing), they specifically mention that he came up with this magic formula that helps to cure ED.

They quote him as saying the following:

I have made my research and spoken to specialists and industry insiders about the topic.” Bradshaw mentioned on the show. “And they helped us create this productVerutum Rx.

And mate can I tell you, this stuff is VERY potent.

I’ve tried Viagra, I’ve tried Tadalafil, I’ve tried Cialis.Verutum Rxblows them all away.

First off, I highly doubt that he used the word ‘mate’. No one in the United States does that, unless they’re quoting a line from Crocodile Dundee.

Second, if you search for that exact quote on Google, an interesting thing happens.

A totally different site shows up.

When you click on that site, the entire article quotes Denzel Washington as saying the following:

“Dr. Phil and I have done our research, spoken to specialists and industry insiders.” Washington spoke when he guest appeared on the Dr. Phil’s Show.

“And they helped us create this product TestoRev.

And boy can I tell you, this stuff is potent!

I’ve triedViagra, I’ve triedRed Ginseng, I’ve triedCialis.TestoRev blows them all away.”

Here’s a screenshot:

So WTF is going on here?

I’m getting a bit ahead of myself, we’ll get back to this one later.

Anyway, on the subject of Terry Bradshaw and his ED-killing miracle cure, apparently the makers of Viagra and Cialis were furious.

I mean, who would want anyone cutting into their multi-billion dollar profits with some cure for ED, right?!

It went so far that the makers of Viagra / Cialis “called for his apology and removed him from Match Of The Day”.

WTF is Match of the Day?

It sounds like some sort of sports show, but I’ve never heard of it here in the US.

Well, it turns out that Match of the Day is a show hosted on BBC.

I did a little digging, and it also turns out that Bradshaw has never even been on Match of the Day, much less hosted it!

In reality, this entire thing is a total sham guys. And I’m about to dissect it piece by piece.

Red Flag #1– This is NOT the CNN website.

To the untrained eye, this looks like a legit news article.

There’s breaking news stories appearing on the left hand side of the page.

The CNN logo is displayed prominently at the top of the page.

The problem is, if you look closely at the url in the address bar, it should say CNN.com, right?

Well, it doesn’t.

Instead, it says tempting traders dot com, a completely different site.

No worries, maybe CNN was just testing out a new url or something, right?

Red Flag #2– The Terry Bradshaw ‘Good Morning America’ Interview

In the first paragraph of this “news article”, the author specifically mentions that Terry Bradshaw was on Good Morning America talking about his new ED product.

What is the name of that product?

Well, that depends on the day you’re looking at it.

One day it’s Verutum RX.

The next day it’s Alpha TRT.

And just this morning it was Alpha Titan Testo.

So which one is it?

Well, I looked for the episode of where Terry Bradshaw was on Good Morning America, and the only one I could find was this one.

I (painfully) watched the entire thing, and there was no mention of Verutum RX, no mention of Alpha TRT, and no mention of Alpha Titan Testo.

I’m gonna go into a ton more detail tomorrow on how this whole thing is a complete scam, but I’m really tired right now.

Check back by the end of the day and I’ll have the full scoop available!

Until then, I hope it is clear that people are the internet can and will go to whatever lengths that they are willing to go to and sell you on their product, even if it means lying about and imposing false endorsements on celebs who were none the wiser.

It is a common practice and this site alone has documented a slew of similar cases of scamming supplement companies.

Recommendation

Let’s face it.

There’s more responsibility and pressure to succeed than ever before.

And it can be hard to juggle everything without the help of a little pick-me-up.

Traditionally, coffee was the go-to for energy and focus.

But for some people, a strong cup of Joe just doesn’t cut it.

For others, they hate the intense caffeine crash that’s inevitable once the buzz wears off.

With most pick me-me-ups that you will find out there, there is some sort of a trade off or dip in quality with continued us, i.e. tolerance, that you can expect over time.

So naturally, folks are on the hunt for something that packs a little more punch in the energy department, but doesn’t leave them wanting to nap in their cubicle.

But does that something even exist?

The folks at MDrive say it does.

I first found out about MDrive Workforce pills while browsing the aisles of my local CVS.

At first I thought they were an erectile dysfunction pill.

I mean, they’re located in the ED section right next to supplements like Libido Max, Zyrexin, and Ageless Male.

It also says right there on the label “Engineered for Power Now and Power Later.”

But it turns out to be a pill made for stamina and energy.

So I had to buy a box and give ’em a whirl.

After all, I’m just like you… always on the lookout for a supplement that’ll optimize my performance — mentally, physically, and even emotionally.

In this review, you’re going to learn exactly what you need to know about Workforce pills.

The ingredients they contain, the side effects, if they work and how they work, and where to get them for the best price.

So let’s dive in.

What are Workforce Pills?

There’s a HUGE demand for energy pills that actually work.

While I don’t know the exact statistics, there’s probably millions of Americans who are looking for a certain edge on their day (and life!) they can only get from a supplement.

I mean, who wants to be chugging Redbull and Monster energy drinks all day anyway?

We know the catastrophic effects these can have on our health. (Source)

So MDrive (which is technically DreamBrands) came out with a pill that is unabashedly marketed toward men, and claims to deliver the energy, stamina, and drive needed for life.

But there’s something that really intrigued me about this energy pill. Can you spot it?

It’s something that definitely sets it apart from many I’ve seen and tested.

Yup… in addition to energy, stamina, and drive, it also claims it’ll improve your sexual health while supporting the maintenance of healthy testosterone levels too!

Even the product video oozes testosterone…

Is it claiming it’s a T-booster? Nope!

And that’s why I like it.

There’s a million products on the market that promise a boost in the ol’ testosterone.

But guess what, 99% of them FAIL at doing so.

Even from the start, Workforce pills weren’t making empty promises.

They simply say their formula can help maintain t-levels.

Alright, moving along.

Here are the claimed benefits of this energy pill:

All day energy booster
Health testosterone levels
Increased energy, stamina, and drive
Reduced stress and cortisol levels
Supports energy and endurance

But how exactly will this product deliver these results?

Does it contain the individual ingredients necessary for energy, stamina, drive, sexual health, and healthy testosterone levels?

Or is it just another well-marketed product that falls flat?

Let’s have a look.

What are the ingredients in MDrive Workforce pills?

Workforce pills come in capsules, and each capsule contains the following vitamins: Vitamin D3, Vitamin B12, and Zinc.

Then you’ve got a good dose of extended-release ZumXR caffeine — 150 mgs of the stuff — which the company says will give you “sustained energy.”

“ZumXR uses a unique technology with specific coating materials that control the release of caffeine over 6 hours allowing for a more sustained energy experience without the crash.” –MDrive Workforce

Workforce capsules are extended release for sustained energy — Image: mdriveformen.com

I believe it.

I’ve taken caffeine in extended-release capsules before, and it’s MUCH better than downing a cup of coffee (approx. 95 mg of caffeine).

It doesn’t give you the jitters, the heart-pounding sensation, or the crash.

Alright, we know the ingredient will give us a kick in the pants when it comes to energy and stamina, but what about those other benefits they claim?

Namely sexual health and testosterone maintenance?

Low testosterone in men — Effects of low testosterone.

For that we have to dig into their proprietary T-Force Blend.

An 800mg blend of the following ingredients:

KSM-66 Ashwagandha Extract
LJ100 Eurycoma Longifolia Extract
PrimaVie Shilajit Extract

Click Here for an image of the label.

Let’s briefly break down these ingredients to see how they work to promote sexual health and healthy t-levels.

Ashwagandha extract

According to WebMD, this plant has many uses, “But so far, there isn’t enough information to judge whether it is effective for any of them.”

Ahwagandha is included in the list of ingredients for Libido Max For Women — Image: rareseeds.com

Not so fast, WebMD.

There are legit studies that have found Ashwagandha to be effective in increasing sperm count, sperm motility, and “significantly” increasing testosterone levels in men. (Sources: 1, 2)

In fact, researchers discoveredthe following (rather impressive) results:

“Ashwagandha [users] had significantly greater increases in muscle strength on the bench-press exercise and the leg-extension exercise, and significantly greater muscle size increase at the arms and chest.”

Bottom line, Ashwagandha works.

Especially for “maintaining healthy testosterone levels” as Workforce claims to do.

Eurycoma Longifolia

Now the fun part… the part where I get to talk about sexual health. And what better ingredient to help lead the way than Eurycoma Longifolia (aka Tongkat Ali, aka Longjack)?!

According to one study, this “promising” flowering plant from Asia has been researched for the way it may manage“various male sexual disorders, which include erectile dysfunction, male infertility, low libido, and down-regulated testosterone levels.” (Source)

And check it out… after several clinical trials,researchers landed on this summary:

“There is convincing evidence for the prominence of EL [Eurycoma Longifolia] in improving the male sexual health.”

Bam!

But for as much as Eurycoma helps in the sexual department, it pretty much fails in boosting testosterone in healthy men (Source).

But that’s alright— and that’s exactly why MDrive included a healthy dose of our good friend Ashwagandha in their Workforce pills.

If you’re tracking, so far we’ve found evidence that Workforce pills are effective for the following:

Energy
Stamina
Healthy Testosterone
Sexual Health.

Which brings us to the last ingredient…

PrimaVie Shilajit Extract

This is a trademarked form of purified Shilajit.

You’re probably scratching your head and asking, “Now what in the tarnation is Shilajit?!” So here’s a quick rundown.

Fulvic acid is the active agent in this substance that can be found in the Himalayas.

According to one study, this natural substance “is in essence a nutraceutical” with potential benefits for improving cognition and preventing Alzheimer’s disease.

However, “more investigations at the basic biological level are necessary [to prove its effectiveness], and certainly well-developed clinical trials…” (Source)

Though Shilajit needs further research to prove its cognitive benefits, it has undergone clinical trials for its testosterone-boosting benefits (not that Workforce needs any more t-booster in its formula).

Researchers have found that “Treatment with Shilajit for consecutive 90 days revealed that it has significantly increased total testosterone, free testosterone and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEAS) compared with placebo.” (Source)

I have to say that (so far) I am pleasantly surprised and impressed by the forethought that went into this energy supplement.

The makers of the product definitely approached this pill with methodic intention and vision.

Kudos MDrive.

My Personal Results

So as I stated earlier, I actually got a chance to try out MDrive WorkForce pills personally, and I have to admit I’m a bit impressed with the results!

The directions on the label state that you should take 2 capsules in the morning with food.

Normally I have about 1 1/2 cups of coffee in the morning.

Since MDrive Workforce already contains a decent amount of caffeine, I decided to skip it completely.

While they do state that it’s preferable to take it with food, I’ve personally noticed that stimulants just don’t work one a full stomach.

If they do, the effect is very little.

I figured I would take 1 capsule, wait about 30 minutes, and then take the second capsule.

This would give me the chance to lessen any potential side effects, if any.

I will say this, and that is the pills are huge!

So big in fact that you might want to considering opening up the capsule and dropping the contents into a glass of water.

What kind of effect did it have on energy?

As I originally suspected (and they claimed), MDrive WorkForce doesn’t come on too strong like a traditional caffeine pill would.

I could feel the initial effects start to kick in after about 15 minutes.

However, one pill was just not enough, so down the hatch went another pill.

After about 45 minutes, I had sort of an energetic calm fall over me.

It was more of a mental energy rather than a physical one, which was fine by me.

I didn’t notice any hard crash at the end of the day, another pleasant surprise.

All in all, I would rate the energy-producing effects a 4.5 out of 5 stars.

What kind of effect did it have on stamina and drive?

I’m only 37 years old, and I don’t normally suffer from any sort of erection problems.

With that said, for the first week I have to admit I didn’t notice much.

I might have felt a little bit more stamina, but it wasn’t anything mind-blowing.

It wasn’t until about the end of week 2 that I noticed any sort of effect on stamina.

It’s a hard thing to quantify, but I could sense that my erection quality just felt better overall.

I felt like I could last longer than usual, and I also seemed to notice random mid-day boners popping up out of nowhere.

Was it the result of the MDrive Workforce pills?

In my estimation, most likely.

All in all, I would rate the stamina / sex drive producing effects at 4 out of 5 stars.

User reviews

Overall, the user reviews for MDrive Workforce are very positive.

They get a relatively solid 3.7 stars on Amazon.

And I know the reviews are real.

I ran them through a couple of fake-review-detector tools… and they passed with flying colors.

The MDrive Workforce user reviews are authentic and real — Image: reviewmeta.com

So what are the reviews saying about Workforce?

Well, one guy who runs a lot praises the pill for the slow-release benefits and for not tearing up his gut like coffee or other energy boosters do.

He also likes the fact that it doesn’t give him the jitters.

Another fellow says “no jitters, no crash, just awesomeness.” He was able to kick his energy drink habit when he found out just how well Workforce worked for him.

But just like the reviewer above, this guy wants vegetable-based capsules, not the current gelatin ones. (You listening, MDrive?!)

And finally, the last review I want to touch on really focuses on how the pill gave him energy without the crazy side effects.

He even shared it with a colleague on a long business trip who has since become an “advocate” for Workforce pills.

Those who didn’t like the product mostly complained of it not having any effect on them.

And one reviewer said it flagged in a drug test… which is hard to believe, as the ingredients in this formula are all-natural.

MDrive Workforce pills FAQ’s

Who makes M Drive Workforce?

The makers of MDrive Workforce energy and testosterone pills is actually a company called DreamBrands.

Are they legit?

Yes and no.

I’ve personally used many of their brands, including MDrive Elite.

However, some of the claims on their site are a bit concerning. For example, on the MDrive About Us page, they specifically state that their CEO Gary S.

Kehoe was the inventor of Zicam.

If you’re not already aware, Zicam is a line of OTC cold remedies that claim to shorten the duration of a cold.

With that said, a simple google search reveals that he in fact did not invent Zicam.

Apparently it was invented by Charles B.

Hensely and Robert Davidson in the mid 1990’s. (Source)

So this begs the question, “Why lie about something so trivial like that?”

Anyway, Kehoe and his business partner have advanced degrees from Ivy League schools like Stanford and Harvard.

On the company’s official website, they say…

“Our entire product line is conceptualized and formulated at our headquarters in Arizona.

Each of our premium products are manufactured in the southwestern United States.”

What are these products they speak of?

Well, in addition to Workforce, they currently make and market 4 other supplements.

These supplements are called Weekend Warrior, Refind Your Prime, Fat Burner, and Elite Performance.

They really seem to care about the science behind their products, and even include a full-page dedicated to scientific studies.

Oh, and the folks at DreamBrands sponsor a team of elite athletes, too.

How do I take MDrive Workforce?

According to the label, you take 2 capsules of Workforce in the morning preferably with food.

Use it only when you want a boost in energy and stamina… this isn’t one of those products that has to remain in your system to work.

Are there any side effects with Worforce?

Not really.

I haven’t noticed any negative side effects while taking Workforce.

If you’re a guy, you might notice bigger better erections when taking the pills.

But who’s gonna complain about that?

Is MDrive Workforce safe to take?

Yes, the formula is all-natural, and none of the ingredients raise any red flags as far as safety goes.

You should be just fine taking this energy enhancer.

Where can I buy Workforce?

The makers of the product say it can be purchased “across North America at over 80 retail chains including GNC, The Vitamin Shoppe, Meijer, Whole Foods, Sprouts and Vitamin World.”

And like I mentioned earlier, I found Workforce at my local CVS.

You can also get it online, direct from the manufacturer.

As well as on Amazon.com and other online retailers.

How much is MDrive Workforce?

45 capsules, which is a 22-day supply, costs $27.99. But if you buy straight from MDrive, they offer a buy 2 get 1 free deal… which is a really good deal.Especially if you find the product works for you.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, there is a 60-day money-back guarantee on MDrive Workforce.

In case you need to get in contact with their customer service, here’s their contact info:

Phone number: 888-300-9181

Email: [email protected]

Be sure to have your order number ready when calling.

MDrive Workforce Recommendation

I’m all about this product.

Workforce gave me a noticeable increase in energy throughout the day, and even improved my erections.

It’s a nice blend of a testosterone booster and caffeine pill.

The formula is a pretty solid, with just enough caffeine (extended-release!) and all-natural herbs to help maintain healthy levels of testosterone and even boost sexual health.

If you are not a fan of the strong and pronounced effects that caffeine has in most forms, the extended-release presence of caffeine in Workforce might be more your speed.

The reviews are overwhelmingly positive, the price is right at about $27, its safe to take, and for good measure, the company offers a 60-day money-back guarantee.

DreamBrands is dedicated to putting out quality products without the usual hype that’s so prevalent in this industry.And that’s exactly what I found so appealing about MDrive Workforce.

Needless to say, I recommend it, and I’m gonna continue taking these energy pills into the foreseeable future.

Lean Xplode Review

Lean Xplode Overview

Losing weight can be tough.

Many people struggle throughout their lives with yo-yo diets, losing weight only to gain it back over the following months.

The trouble is, our bodies often naturally want to retain some fat stores as an emergency supply of energy.

Without exercise our metabolism also slows down, which only makes matters worse.

This is why there are so many weight loss supplements on the market that appear to be a magical solution to these problems.

Unfortunately, many of these supplements are not as effective as they claim.

If they were that effective, everyone and their mother would be on them and they would be household names at this point.

Lean Xplode uses Green Tea and Garcinia Cambogia to aid weight loss.

In this review, we examine whether or not it is a good choice for shedding stubborn fat.

1. What Is Lean Xplode and What Does It Do?

Lean Xplode, is a lesser-known fat burning supplement, in comparison to many other products and brands on the market.

But that doesn’t necessarily mean it is any less effective.

Lean Xplode, according to the bottle, claims to:

Support metabolism
Reduce appetite
Help with weight management

On Amazon, it additionally claims to assist in “rapid fat loss,” among other things.

The packaging appears to be quite middle of the road and not aimed at any one demographic of customer.

However with a name like ‘Lean Xplode’ you might be forgiven for thinking the product is a bit more on the masculine side.

2. What Are the Ingredients?

The ingredients in Lean Xplode seem quite encouraging at first glance.

That was until we discovered they were listed in a proprietary blend.

The main issue being that the exact doses of the ingredients are not disclosed anywhere on the label or product website.

That is one immediate mark down for this product.

Now we’ll determine if the ingredients themselves are actually effective for fat burning.

Green Coffee Bean

This is a definite positive for Lean Xplode.

Green coffee bean is one of the best supported thermogenic and fat burning ingredients out there.

This is due to the amount of chlorogenic acid these unroasted coffee beans include.

This active ingredient reduces levels of glucose in your liver, and so your body compensates for this by using up stored fat.

Garcinia Cambogia

Garcinia cambogia is a nutrient which many claim acts as an appetite suppressant.

It is a flavoring agent for food and so can increase satisfaction levels after meals.

Triglyceride levels in the blood can potentially decrease with supplementation of garcinia cambogia.

It’s another solid inclusion.

Horny Goat Weed

This looks like a joke at first glance and certainly is a new one on us.

This ingredient is used in Chinese herbal medicine to enhance sexual performance.

It is thought to work by promoting blood circulation.

Why it has been included here remains a mystery to us.

Unless it is to generally promote all-round functional wellness by improving circulation.

The weight loss links are yet to be seen or proven.

Alfalfa

Alfalfa is a plant that originates in South and Central Asia.

It has been grown around the world for centuries and is celebrated for its high nutrition content.

It has also been used as feed for animals.

Alfalfa is often consumed by humans as a supplement or in sprouted form.

It is high in vitamin K and also contains many other nutrients, including vitamin C, copper, and folate.

There is some evidence from small studies suggesting that it can help lower cholesterol in the blood.

Psyllium Husk

This is an obscure inclusion here, since psyllium is usually used as a bulk-forming laxative.

It soaks up water in your gut and helps you to pass waste more easily.

This may help reduce bloating as well as temporarily make you weigh less by reducing water retention.

Raspberry Ketone

Raspberry ketone has become a popular supplement in weight loss products in recent years.

Manufacturers and dieticians alike sometimes claim that it can aid weight loss and increase fat burning.

Caffeine Anhydrous

Alongside green coffee bean, this is another effective and proven addition to this weight loss supplement.

It is generally a safe, natural stimulant that can help boost energy and alertness.

There have been countless studies that have proven it to increase metabolism and energy.

Thus, it gives you the extra power you need for working out.

Green Tea

This is ancient antioxidant will likely help you feel energetic and healthier.

There have been studies proving that it has high thermogenic properties, which is ideal for weight loss.

Once absorbed, these catechins help to promote your body’s overall level of the fat burning hormone norepinephrine.

If those were not enough plus points for this ingredient, the tea also contains L-theanine.

This is an amino acid found in many supplements, which helps with concentration and focus.

Missing Ingredients

We feel some of the weaker and more obscure ingredients included in this supplement could have been replaced by better choices, like cayenne pepper, piperine and glucomannan.

All of these either help with fat burning, ingredient absorption or act as proven appetite suppressants.

3. How to Use Lean Xplode?

The recommended dose is two capsules a day.

Generally, this is on the low side.

Effective fat burning supplements usually recommend more capsules spread right through the day.

This is in order to keep the active ingredients in your bloodstream and keep the fat burning effect continuous.

In theory the more frequently you take a pill, the more likely you are to see the full benefits.

4. Who Makes It?

Lean Xplode carries the Prime Labs logo.

Prime Labs own and distribute several fat burners and sleep aids.

It is a bit difficult to find the Prime Labs website quickly through Google.

Once we did find it we noted that there were vast number fat burners for sale by this brand.

Lean Xplode was not actually listed at the time of writing.

This makes us wonder whether the product has been discontinued due to a lack of demand.

We did some more digging and found that while people do review Prime Labs products on social media, the company themselves do not appear to have a huge following.

They have just a few hundred likes on Facebook and even less on Instagram.

It appears they may also manufacture a competing product called Luxury Lean.

This is often confused for Lean Xplode, but they are not the same formula.

5. Lean Xplode Side Effects

Since this supplement contains all-natural ingredients, users are fairly unlikely to suffer from side effects.

Taking too much caffeine may have diuretic consequences or affect sleep at night.

However, with just two capsules a day, we don’t think you will need to worry about this.

As with any new supplement you introduce to your diet, it is recommended to consult your general practitioner for advice before use.

6. Where Can You Buy Lean Xplode?

Lean Xplode can be bought easily through commercial sites, such as Amazon, when in stock.

It may also be available on the Prime Labs website from time to time.

7. Does Lean Xplode Work?

This supplement may help you manage your weight by helping you reduce your appetite.

It also contains ingredients that stimulate thermogenic reactions in your body which may help boost your metabolism.

Unfortunately, it is not suitable for pregnant or lactating women. The time after having a baby is when women are most likely to consider a fat burner.

However many of these supplements are not safe for those who are breast feeding.

According to the Lean Xplode Advanced Fat Burner reviews on Amazon customers have given the product a 4 out of 5 star rating, which is pretty impressive.

That said we have seen many poor supplements with a high rating on Amazon, something that has made us rather suspicious about how these reviews have been obtained.

Many brands give away thousands of pounds worth of product in return for 5-star feedback from their customers.

Perhaps unsurprisingly these reviews don’t come with photos to support them.

Negative reviews are also present, although they are in the minority.

Only 5 percent of reviewers gave it 1 star, stating that it did nothing for them.

If you are interested in the Prime Labs sister product Luxury Lean then you can find review on the Luxury Lean website.

8. Recommendation

While taking this supplement will likely not do any harm or damage to your weight loss goals, it isn’t the best fat burner you can buy.

At just two pills a day, it does not promote consistent fat burning.

Moreover, it is missing more clinically-backed ingredients that could replace some of the more ambiguous and confusing ones included.

In our opinion, it is better to see good, effective and healthy doses of a few proven ingredients.

Rather than several ingredients that make the label longer without adding anything particularly beneficial.

All in all, it may work as part of a healthy diet and lifestyle, but we advise you investigate other leading supplements before making a decision.

GNC Total Lean CLA PM

What Is GNC Total Lean CLA PM?

In this fast-paced world, people are working more and more hours each day.

It’s no wonder that many people are struggling to switch off and go to sleep at night.

This stressful and high-tech lifestyle is really taking its toll, with many people not only battling insomnia, but also obesity.

In this climate, PM fat burning supplements have become increasingly popular, since they promise to give you a good night’s sleep, alongside helping you lose weight.

There is a wealth of research to support that a lot of weight and metabolism issues are related to sleeping, so combining the best of both worlds into one magical supplement is not only novel and inventive, but a much welcome surprise.

GNC Total Lean CLA PM is one such night time fat burning supplement.

It is usually taken alongside a daytime supplement.

It claims that it works by keeping fat burning ingredients in your bloodstream while you sleep.

This can seem like an ideal solution, since many physical changes can occur in the body while you’re asleep.

Sound like a dream come true?

Well, we’re going to look closely at this supplement and review the ingredients in it to determine whether or not it’s worth your time and money.

GNC Total Lean CLA PM Ingredients

There are several ingredients in this supplement that we need to assess.

Some will be designed to combat insomnia and others obesity.

Related Article: Six Star Thermogenic Shred Review

At first glance though, it would seem that the supplement focuses on promoting relaxation and sleep, rather than weight loss.

The supplement facts panel includes a vast number of ingredients.

Here’s what we found:

Valerian (100 mg)

This comes from a herb native to Europe and some parts of Asia.

It is primarily used as a sleep aid and muscle relaxant and seems to operate as a sedative.

Valerian has no proven links to weight loss or fat burning, so we suspect it has been included to help you sleep better overnight, allowing your body to regenerate. 100mg is quite a low dose, but it might still have some benefits.

Biotin (30 mcg)

Biotin is a form of vitamin B.

It is naturally found in many foods and can also be supplemented.

foods that contain biotin — Source: Medicalnewstoday.com

It is known by many other names, such as vitamin B7 and vitamin H.

The ingredient works by breaking down food into the sugar that your body utilizes for energy.

This vitamin is important for nail and hair growth.

It also keeps your eyes and liver working healthily.

It cannot, however, be stored by the body, so we don’t see the benefits of supplementing with this ingredient.

CLA (3.4 g)

Conjugated linoleic acid, or CLA, is a fatty acid found in meat and dairy.

It has become a popular dietary and weight loss supplement.

It is marketed as being useful for those seeking to lose weight and retain lean muscle mass.

Ab Cuts claims to be America’s #1 CLA Fat-Loss Brand.

Image: Abcuts.com

In reality, it is arguably the only recognized weight loss ingredient in this product, which is surprising.

It does include a hefty dose, which is just as well.

Furthermore, taking CLA at night shouldn’t make any difference to its overall impact.

There is no evidence to suggest CLA is more effective when taken at night.

In fact, one study conducted by University of Wisconsin noted that CLA may actually be more effective when taken in the morning.

Boron (2 mg)

Boron is an element from the periodic table.

It is found naturally in greens like kale and spinach, and also in grains, raisins, and nuts.

foods that contain boron — Foods that contain boron

It is a mineral that is used to treat certain conditions like arthritis and osteoporosis and to manage menstrual and menopausal symptoms. (Source) It can also help the body to absorb magnesium and calcium.

As far as weight-loss ingredients go, though, we are not sure why it has been included here.

Horsetail Rush (3 mg)

This is used for water retention which may actually cause you to gain weight.

Most daytime supplements contain diuretic ingredients, so it may have been included to help balance that and prevent you from the need to empty your bladder at night.

L-Theanine (50 mg)

This is an amino acid which increases GABA, resulting in lowering stress and improving mood.

It is used in the treatment and management of conditions like ADHD.

While it may help you sleep better, we are unsure of the benefits for fat burning.

L-Methionine (10 mg)

L-Methionine is also an amino acid and constructs the proteins necessary for many of the body’s internal processes.

A beneficial health boosting ingredient, perhaps, but again, we are not convinced of its fat burning benefits.

One study did indicate that Methionine can help with weight loss in obese adults, however.

Lemon Balm Leaves Extract (50 mg)

Lemon balm leaves extract is usually taken to soothe stomach and digestive issues and manage anxiety.

It is claimed that it can have a calming effect, and thereby improve sleep.

Like so many ingredients in this supplement, this is another one that seems to focus on sleep quality rather than weight loss.

How to Take GNC Total Lean CLA PM

According to the GNC website, you should take four capsules at bedtime.

Each bottle contains 120 capsules, thus lasting you a month.

At a retail price of $44.99, this CLA night time fat burner is right at the mid-point the price spectrum.

Related Article: Evolution Lean Keto Review

The manufacturer’s website warns against usage for pregnant or breastfeeding women and advises against taking the supplement two weeks prior to surgery.It also suggests consulting a doctor before commencing use.

Who Makes It?

GNC is the manufacturer behind this supplement.

The company is based in Pittsburgh, PA and is a leading global retailer specializing in health, wellness and performance.

It’s probably one of the largest health supplement sellers in the U.S. and is well trusted by loyal customers.

Other Products From the Manufacturer

GNC provides an assortment of health, wellness and performance products.

These include weight management and performance supplements, vitamins, health and beauty products and other related merchandise.

Some of the other popular weight loss supplements from GNC include:

GNC Total Lean® Burn 60™
GNC Performix SST
Various GNC protein shakes which appear to be popular on social media

GNC Total Lean CLA PM Side Effects

In this section, we will look closely at some of the ingredients and their potential side effects.

Since it is a stimulant free nighttime supplement, we would expect the side effects to be minimal.

Let’s take a more in-depth look at the potential GNC CLA side effects per ingredient:

Side Effects from Valerian

Consuming this long term may lead to some side effects, such as stomach upset, headache, dullness, excitability or anxiety.

A few people have also reported feeling sluggish in the morning after taking valerian, but this may be more of a risk factor in higher doses.

Side Effects from Boron

While considered safe for most people, large amounts can be harmful and may cause adverse reactions.

Side Effects from CLA

CLA in supplement form differs from CLA that is naturally occurring in food and so the concentrated supplement form may cause some issues for the user.

In some cases, digestive problems have been reported and there has been some evidence of increased liver fat, which can be highly dangerous in the long term.

Side Effects from Lemon Balm Leaves Extract

While this ingredient has probably been included for its calming effects, lemon balm leaves extract can cause nausea, dizziness and possible breathing issues, like wheezing.

Where Can You Buy GNC Total Lean CLA PM?

The supplement can be bought on various websites online, including the manufacturer’s site.

It is also available on general retail websites, like Amazon, which sells a whole host of GNC products.

It will also undoubtedly be possible to find a store local to you that sells GNC products.

Does GNC Total Lean CLA PM REALLY Work?

GNC Total Lean CLA PM is packaged in cool blue, highlighting the calming effect of the supplement inside.

It also appears to be marketed as a gender-neutral supplement.

The theory and what it is trying to achieve—fat burning while sleeping restfully—is attractive.

However, we are unsure as to how much it can help with boosting metabolism or fat burning.

This is due to the lack of proven ingredients focusing weight management.

That said, there may be indirect benefits.

Sleeping restfully may improve overall health and help you get better results from your workouts.

However:

It is missing key proven fat burning ingredients, like Green Tea and Turmeric, these natural thermogenic extracts would arguably improve the performance of this supplement.

GNC Total Lean CLA PM Reviews

There are varying reviews on customer websites.

At the time of writing this piece, Amazon customer reviews were 3.9 out of 5, which is reasonable.

Users who left 5-star ratings claimed that it helped with belly bloat and made them sleep better.

Others also said it worked for them, in conjunction with a healthy diet and lifestyle.

The negative reviews complained of it either knocking them out into too deep, leaving them still sleepy the next day, or alternatively many said it wasn’t working for them at all.

Should You Try GNC Total Lean CLA PM?

If you’re following a diet and fitness plan and already taking a good and effective daytime supplement, then this product may be worth adding to your stack.

Of course, when it comes to health and wellness, sleeping restfully isn’t a bad thing.

However, as far as fat burning goes, GNC Total Lean CLA PM definitely does not seem to be the best pill out there.

Overall, we think GNC may have missed the weight loss mark with this supplement.

Dangers Of Kratom – A Pharmacist Shares His Thoughts

Note: This article was written by Brian Straub, a licensed pharmacist. The views expressed below are his opinion.

Reviewing Kratom supplements in an unbiased way has been no easy task.

Depending on what you read you will walk away thinking it is a wonder supplement or an illicit drug that kills people.

The truth, as always, lies somewhere in between.

Kratom Overview – Anecdotal Stories

Being trained as a pharmacist, unbiased data and clinical studies trump everything.

But it’s also important to take into account the real life experience of patients, even if it isn’t always fleshed out in the literature.

For any new treatment, as the number of anecdotes and real experiences of people begin to grow, it is hard to deny the potential benefits. Kratom falls into this category.

If you do a few Google searches you’ll begin to find heaps of personal stories about the positive effects of kratom.

This Forbes article does a great job of highlighting some of them.

Is Kratom Safe?

Building on this, what makes kratom even more appealing on its surface is that the proposed mechanism of action found in studies match up with the effects.

But, this is also where it gets a little bit dicey.

Case reports show that kratom improves mood, relieves pain, and can help with opioid addiction.

This would make sense, because many of the active compounds bind to opioid receptors in the brain.

Unfortunately, there is a reason why opioid drugs are highly regulated.

While they are exceptional at inducing euphoria and relieving pain, they also have some pretty serious potential side effects including addiction, withdrawal, respiratory depression, and many drug interactions.

The side effects and potential serious adverse effects sky rocket when this supplement is taken in conjunction with certain other medications, supplements, and illicit drugs.

Potential Adverse Effects Of Kratom

There are many different types of kratom as well as ways to take it.

Generally speaking, lower doses generally provide a stimulating effect and the adverse effects related to this may include anxiety, blushing, contracted pupils, agitation, nausea, itching, loss of appetite and increased urination.

As you begin to increase the dose, you begin to see opioid type of effects.

The side effects of moderate doses are very similar to opioids with:

Constipation
Dry mouth
Nausea
Sweating
Hypotension
Increased heart rate.

At higher doses you may begin to experience tremors, anorexia, weight loss, seizures, and psychosis.

Like opioids, if kratom is taken consistently and stopped, withdrawal symptoms will occur.

Potential Drug Interactions With Kratom

There are few, if any, true studies of kratom in the human body and most of the information gathered is from case reports and sophisticated pharmacologic modeling by the FDA. What is abundantly clear is that the risk of adverse effects with kratom sky rockets when combined with other medications.

The most dangerous drugs to take with kratom include any mind altering, psychoactive, stimulating or narcotic substances.

This includes all medications for depression and anxiety such as SSRI’s, benzodiazepines, atypical antipsychotics and so on.

Any medication that acts on opioid receptors such as oxycodone, codeine, morphine, loperamide and so on.

Stimulating medications such as Adderall, Ritalin, Concerta, and others.

Additionally, due to the potential for liver toxicity, it is important to avoid any medications that are either toxic to the liver or heavily metabolized by the liver.

The one that comes immediately to mind would be Tylenol.

FDA Regulation Of Kratom

For these reasons, the FDA is very clear on where it stands on kratom.

In February of 2018, the FDA stated that that there is no evidence that kratom is safe or effective for treating any condition.

The FDA has cited 44 kratom related deaths between 2011-2017. After reading through these case reports, it was pretty clear that kratom alone did not seem to be the cause of death, unless it was due to adulteration of the product, which in itself is a major concern as shown by the 199 cases of Salmonella caused by tainted kratom in early 2018. The issue was when people chose to use kratom with other prescription drugs; most often psychiatric medications, opioids or benzodiazepines; taking in very large doses and often with concomitant psychiatric disorders.

Is The FDA Being Overly Cautious?

I understand that some people may think that the FDA can be overly cautious, especially if you are a biohacker, but their announcement is truly worth the read.

The ultimate conclusion aligns with what I mentioned earlier about the implications of the supplement binding to opioid receptors and its lack of proper study and regulation.

They also emphasize the point, which I strongly agree, that just because something is a plant does not make it safe.

Conclusion

So what does all of this mean?

I am not saying this supplement may not have its role, but if you decide to take that journey, take it with your eyes wide open. I would suggest that this supplement should be saved for the experienced biohacker, who is well aware of all of the risks involved.

Longbido Review

Longbido Overview

To date, I have written about close to 563 supplements involving a free trial.

99.99999% of them are scams, but every once in awhile, a legit one comes across my desk.

One recent one I had a chance to test out is called Longbido.

Longbido claims that it may help you “last all night” and can work for up to 4 hours.

Pretty bold claim, I would say, and not unlike the bold claims of many similar products.

But does it really work?

Well, I personally tested it. Read more to find out what this premature ejaculation remedy is all about.

What is Longbido?

According to the manufacturer, Longbido is an herbal remedy for premature ejaculation.

This Caribbean-born remedy was developed to “give you peace of mind” that you’ll be able to perform, and continue to perform, when the time is right.

To understand how Longbido works, you must first understand what premature ejaculation is (and isn’t).

What is Premature Ejaculation?

Premature ejaculation is defined by WebMD as “a male sexual dysfunction characterized by ejaculation which always or nearly always occurs prior to or within about one minute of vaginal penetration”.

In a poll conducted by us, nearly 27% of all men surveyed reported suffering from premature ejaculation issues.

premature ejaculation poll conducted by supplement critique — Poll we conducted several years back

There are several treatments for premature ejaculation, including:

Behavioral techniques: These involve masturbation an hour before sex, and even avoiding intercourse for a prolonged period of time.
Exercises: These involve specific exercises called Kegels, which essentially “workout” the PC muscle. We’ll talk more about this below.
Condoms: Since they decrease penile sensetivty, condoms are a great tool to combat PE symptoms.
Topical Anestherics: This is what Longbido is. Several other topical anesthetics we’ve personally used include Vigrx Delay Spray and Promescent.

Premature ejaculation is NOT erectile dysfunction.

The 2 are completely different issues that are treated in completely different ways.

By all accounts, Longbido is not made for those specifically suffering from erectile dysfunction issues.

A Clinical Look At The Longbido Ingredients

Unlike most of the other premature ejaculation oils and gels we’ve reviewed in the past, Longbido does not contain topical anesthetics like lidocaine or benzocaine.

Instead, it contains the following:

Aqua
Alcohol Denat
Laurteh-9
Capryl Glycol
Menthyl PCA
Avena Sativa
Hypericum Perforatum

There’s a bit of a discrepancy between what they say on the label, and what they say on their website.

While they don’t list the full ingredients list on their site, they do specifically mention an ingredient called “Uncaria Tree Extract.”

Yet, if you look at the label, it’s nowhere to be found.

Apart from Avena Sativa, I’ve actually never heard of any of these ingredients.

So I started digging…

Aqua is essentially a solvent that is a chemical word for water.

Alcohol Denat is a term for ethanol, or simply alcohol. What are it’s PE remedying properties?

Well, it doesn’t have any that I’m aware of.

There’s actually a typo on the label…they initially put “Laurteh-9”, but when I entered the name into google it kept bringing back an ingredient called Laureth-9.

I’m guessing this is what Longbido meant, so we’re gonna go with that one.

Traditionally, Laureth-9 has been used as a sclerosing agent.

Sclerosing agents are used in the sclerosing of varicose veins, which is essentially a fancy way of saying that they treat varicose veins.

How does this help with premature ejaculation?

At this point it’s a bit unclear, but a leaflet which outlines the chemical compounds in a competing product called Rhino Long Power Cream lists it as an inactive ingredient.

My Personal Results

As I mentioned earlier in the review, I actually got a free bottle of Longbido to test out myself.

Unlike other products that promise a free trial of their product, only to bill your credit card the full price of the product 2 weeks later, this one was different….

It was a legit free sample.

I paid $10 for it, which was rather expensive for the amount I received.

However, it was actually a sample, and not some scammy trial.

The first thing I want to note is that it was NOT delivered discreetly.

This is a bit unfortunate, because I can guarantee a lot of guys have NOT ordered it simply because this is the case.

Most people ordering such a, let’s say sensitive product, are looking for a certain amount of discretion and that is often one of the appeals of being able to purchase such supplements over the internet instead of a counter at a store.

I don’t typically suffer from premature ejaculation, but I’ve had my moments.

I decided to test this out using the old fashioned, time-tested method…masturbating.

The first thing I did was pump out a couple of drops of Longbido onto the tip of my penis.

Unlike some of the other oils and creams I’ve used in the past, this one actually didn’t smell that bad.

As a matter of fact, it actually smelled kind of good.

I rubbed it in and was a bit surprised at how fast it started to work.

I could literally start feeling the initial effects in about 5 min. and the full effects seemed to kick in after about 20 min.

After putting on one of my favorite porn videos, I got to work.

Normally this particular video can get me going pretty quick. So quick, in fact, that in most cases I’ll have to do the “stop-start” method of rubbing one out.

This basically means stroking it until about 10 seconds before you’re about to bust a nut, and suddenly stopping.

I didn’t have to do this with Longbido.

It seemed to essentially “take care of that for me”.

How To Use Longbido

The instructions on the Longbido box indicate that you should do the following:

Shake the bottle well and then remove the black cap.
Apply to the head of the penis (glans) and rub onto the penis.

You should allow up to 45 min. for the full effects to kick in, although I personally noticed it worked way faster.

Where To Buy

From what I can tell, the only place you can buy Longbido is on their official website, www.bearaddiction.com.

As I mentioned in my review, you can get a sample for as little as $10.

The sample is good for about 3 – 4 sexual encounters, depending completely on how much you need for each specific one.

You can get 2 bottles at a discounted rate of $39.99, which should last you about a month.

If you really like the stuff, you can go all out and order a 4 bottle supply. The listed price for 4 bottles is $79.99, which is a $40 discount.

I couldn’t seem to find their customer service phone number, so if anyone has it I would appreciate it if you left it in the comments section below.

Recommendation

I’ve never been a huge fan of male enhancement oils like this for a couple of reasons:

They usually really messy, and don’t make for an “easy” sexual encounter
They usually stink real bad, like Himcolin Gel
Most of the time they don’t work
When they do work, they usually work “too well”

This was not the case with Longbido.

While it can be a little messy, it does seem to absorb very well as opposed to other creams.

And in my personal experience, it actually works!

If you don’t believe me, just try out the sample. It’s only $10, and will give you the opportunity to try it out relatively “risk-free”.

I still think that Vigrx Delay Spray is the best, but Longbido is definitely worth a shot!

Wachsen Riesig Review

1. Wachen Riesig Overview

Like most of you, I get a lot of junk mail.

Down here in Florida, everyone lives in an HOA. (well, almost everyone)

Most HOA’s have a mail room where you go to pick up your mail, as opposed to it being delivered straight to your house.

Just the other day I was checking my mail when all of a sudden I came across this:

This is not the first time I’ve see something like this.

As a matter of fact, I get mail like this probably once every 2 weeks.

My mailman must think I’m just really into ‘making her scream in bed’. 🙂

In any event, I opened it up and was presented with a pretty graphic display of images.

I won’t post them all here, but if you’re reading this review right now you probably know what I’m talking about.

2. What is Wachseng Riesig?

Manufactured by a company called Borgia Health, they claim that Wachsen Riesig is the product of German engineering.

Penis growth engineering that is.

Developed by a Dr. Ernst Lang, Wachsen Riesig is a clinically studied supplement that provides numerous benefits, including:

Increase in penis length
Increase in penis girth
Improved testosterone levels
Stronger orgasms
Increased sex drive
Increased sexual endurance

That sure is a lot of claims, and of course are not the first time I’ve heard them.

3. Can You Really Gain Penis Size With A Pill?

The chief benefit behind Wachsen Riesig, if it isn’t already apparent from the marketing and brochure literature, is increased penis size.

There are mentions of it on nearly every single page of this mailer.

I’ve already dispelled this myth several times on this site, but it bears repeating…

There is no such thing as a ‘permanent penis enlargement’ supplement.

I know this because I’ve tested about 4 dozen that have made this claim, and none did anything of the sort.

They may provide a temporary boost in size, but they will not allow you to grow any bigger than you are already.

4. Who isDr. Ernst Lang?

Throughout this mailer,Dr. Ernst Lang is mentioned several times.

Enough so that I decided to look into him a bit deeper.

They list him as being president of Lang Laboratories, so I ran a google search for that first.

Now, there are several “Lang laboratories”, so I decided to narrow down my search to Dr. Lang specifically.

Unfortunately, I came up dry.

The more I looked at Dr. Ernst Lang’s picture, the more I realized that this is likely a stock photo of a “doctor”.

My suspicions were confirmed when I ran a search for “male doctor” on Google.

Sure enough, the photo of Dr. Ernst Lang is a stock photo.

Does this mean that Dr. Ernst Lang doesn’t exist?

Not at all…

But the picture is definitely not him.

5. A Clinical Look At The Wachsen Riesig Ingredients

From the mailer I received, it looks like the full ingredients list in this supplement includes the following:

Cordyceps
L-Arginine
Cayenne Pepper
Epimedium exract
Cnidium Monnieri
Tongkat Ali
Damiana Root extract
Korean ginseng

These are the only ones listed in the Wachsen Riesig mailer, but looking at their website there are several others.

Most of these ingredients have been clinically studied for their use in ED, and you’ll find many of them in a wealth of other sexual enhancers.

The manufacturer specifically notes that their pills will help to ‘maximize your body’s blood flow”.

This is achieved through the L-Arginine, Cayenne Pepper, Epimedium, and Cnidium Monnieri.

And there is some truth to these claims.

For example, the ingredient L-Arginine is an amino acid that changes into nitric oxide (NO).

This chemical process causes the smooth muscle tissue surrounding the cell walls to relax, allowing for increased blood flow.

As I mentioned earlier, L-Arginine can be found in numerous other supplements of this kind.

Those include Libido Max Red, Viril X, and Apexatropin, among hundreds of others.

Cnidium Monnieri, which is another ingredient listed in Wachsen Riesig, has been shown in numerous clinical studies to help men overcome erectile dysfunction. (Source)

With that said, there is no scientific literature that shows any proof it will make you bigger.

Korean Ginseng has also been shown effective at helping with penile rigidity and girth, libido, and increased sexual satisfaction when compared to a placebo. (Source)

It should be noted that when this study talks about “girth”, they are talking about erect girth vs. flaccid girth.

6. Where To Buy

Unlike many of these other mailers that I get where the only way to buy their supplement is via a phone call or mail-in form,Wachsen Riesig actually has a website.

The prices break down like this:

12 Bottles: $22.50 per bottle ($270 total)
7 bottles: $28.56 per bottle ($199.92 total)
4 bottles: $27.49 per bottle ($109.96 total)
1 bottle: $39.95

I’m not seeing any specific info on how long it takes for Wachen Riesig to kick in, so I can’t make a recommendation as to how much you should buy.

There’s a bit of a catch here if you order the one month supply.

Their terms go like this:

Before your current supply runs out, we’ll automatically send you a fresh 1 month supply of Wachsen Riesig for only $34.95 charged to the same MOP used today, then every 30-days thereafter.You are always guaranteed this low price and free shipping on all future orders.

But remember, you’re in complete control.

You can cancel or change your preferred shipments at any time simply by calling customer service at 1-800-303-1698.

So basically what this means is, they will ship you a new bottle of Wachsen Riesig every month, as well as charge your credit card every month.

From what I can tell, there is no way to opt-out of this from their online order form.

With that said, there is a way to opt out for the larger orders. In fact, you actually have to select the box that says “Add auto-delivery to your order” in order to be enrolled in their auto-shipping program.

Without a doubt, some guys will not realize this and will end up being charged continually and sent bottles of Wachsen Riesig that they were not expecting.

If you’re stuck in this scenario, check out this article.

It details ways that you can cancel any future charges, as well as potentially help you get a refund.

Wachsen Riesig Complaints

In my research, I came across numerous complaints about this product.

If you look at the Better Business Bureau website, you’ll see that the company that makesWachsen Riesig (Borgia Health) has an F rating.

You’ll see that the primary complaint is, you guessed it, the graphic mailers that are sent out.

I can see why this particular person would be pissed.

My question is this: How are guys like you and I getting on these mailing lists in the first place?

Clearly someone has sold our information to the highest bidder.

Who is Borgia Health?

After doing a little bit of research, it looks like this particular company has several other products other thanWachsen Riesig.

They include:

YingChen: An energy supplement
Luscious: An “I don’t know what it does” supplement
Detoxin: A colon cleaning supplement
Nitrocillin: Another sexual enhancement supplement
S-Terone: An energy supplement

Borgia Health is located at the following address:

Borgia Health
5660 Strand Court #A-15
Naples, FL

How Do I Cancel My Order of Wachsen Riesig?

According to the Borgia Health website, all orders are subject to a 90-day return policy.

It’s not clear if items are eligible for a refund if they’ve already been opened, but you are directed to their customer service phone number to address all inquiries.

If you’re looking to cancel, here’s the number: 800-303-1698

7. Recommendation

Apart from the information provided in their mailer, there’s not a lot known about Wachsen Riesig.

There are no customer reviews posted online, no listing on Amazon, and their website is severely lacking in detail.

Sure, the ingredients have been clinically studied.

However, has the exact Wachsen Riesig formula been studied? Unlikely.

With all of that said, the product is definitely way cheaper than most other male enhancement supplements of its kind.

Let it be noted that when a supplement promises that you are going to see an increase in the size of your penis they are simply blowing smoke as that is just not possible, it is cheap and boasts other effects.

While I’m not fond of supplements that claim increases in penis size, if you get benefits like increased sexual libido, stamina, and control, it might be worth it.

I advise caution in general when you don’t have enough available information about a product, but if the heightened libido and performance and low price calls to you, I understand.

Until we learn more about this particular supplement, I would steer clear for now.

EliteMax Keto Review

What is EliteMax Keto?

Made by a company of the same name, EliteMax Keto is a once daily dietary supplement that according to them may put your body into ketosis.

The claimed benefits of ketosis include increased fat burn, energy, and mood, and the manufacturer notes that their proprietary formula will do this.

This is not the only product to boast such potential results, but today we are here to discuss EliteMax Keto and see if it really puts its money where its mouth is and ponies up the good results it promises.

The EliteMax Keto website tells us that their product is a ‘revolutionary break-through’, but is it really?

And for that matter, can any supplement really put your body into a state of ketosis?

We examined the claims, and here’s everything you need to know about these pills.

What is Ketosis And Does It Work?

The entire purpose of EliteMax Keto is to allow your body to fall into a state of ketosis.

According to WebMD, Ketosis is a metabolic process that occurs when the body doesn’t have carbohydrates to burn for energy.

In this scenario, it then turns to body fat as it’s primary source of energy.

This is desirable because as you likely already know, when all that is left to burn is fat, in theory it should happen fast and with more pronounced effects.

This is normally achieved through the use of dieting techniques like the Atkins and Paleo diets, two common diets that have been around for years.

So what exactly is a keto diet?

According to Healthline, the ketogenic diet (usually shortened to simply ‘keto’) is a “low-carb, high fat diet that offers many health benefits”.

Those benefits include things like:

Increased weight loss – Numerous studies have proven that a keto diet may help to reduce body fat and overall weight.
Lowered heart disease risk – A keto diet may help to reduce your risk for heart disease, however, long term effects have not been studied. (Source)
Alzheimers disease – A keto diet may provide protective benefits in patients suffering from Alzheimers and Parkinsons disease. (Source)
Cancer – Some preliminary research has suggested that a keto diet may play a role as an effective alternative therapy for malignant brain cancer. (Source)

Where Does EliteMax Keto Come Into Play?

The whole premise of supplements like EliteMax Keto is that it may put your body into ketosis, without actually having to follow the traditional low-carb, high fat diet associated withe keto diet.

Essentially you would eat the things you normally would, and this supplement may put your body into ketosis.

But can a supplement really do that? Let’s take a look at the formula to get a better idea of how it works.

A Look At The EliteMax Keto Ingredients

While the official website doesn’t provide a complete list of the official ingredients, we found a number of independent 3rd party sites that listed the following:

Green Tea Extract
Hydrocitric Infusion
Garcinia Cambogia
Coffee extract

The exact amounts of each ingredient are kept secret, as well as other pertinent info.

The Science Behind These Ingredients

What’s interesting to note is, none of these ingredients have shown any promise at helping put your body in a state of ketosis.

For example, the ingredient Green Tea extract has been shown to possibly achieve minor weight loss in a clinical study. (Source)

However, a search of it’s keto-activating properties yielded no credible results.

The one ingredient that they do mention on the Elite Max Keto website is BHB, which is short for beta-hydroxybutyrate.

BHB is actually made in the body, but several Keto-based supplements have been putting it in to their formula in an effort to maximize the process.

According to Wikipedia, BHB may be “synthesized in the liver via the metabolism of fatty acids”.

It’s concentration is accentuated through the process of ketosis, and is often considered one of the 3 ketone bodies that are produced and burned in our cells. (Source)

According to several sources, BHB may provide benefits like increased natural energy, improved brain function.

It’s even been studied for it’s use in pediatric epilepsy.

Deceptive Marketing Used By EliteMax Keto And Others

I initially found out about EliteMax Keto while coming across one of those Shark Tank related ads you keep seeing pop up.

What’s interesting to note is that the story in the headline is completely different from the page you ultimately end up on.

For example, looking at the ad above it says the following:

“I did Keto for 30 days, my ex-husbands jaw dropped”.

Clicking on an ad like that, you would expect to read a story about how a woman ran a keto based diet for one month and lost a bunch of weight.

However, once you make your way through, the entire page talks about how EliteMax Keto was seen on Shark Tank.

They show some promising images, including apparent “before and after pictures” of several women who have apparently used it.

So was it really featured on Shark Tank?

No, not at all.

I’ve already outed this particular deception in several other articles, but I’ll touch on the facts of the case here.

The first thing you’ll note is that several other supplements have done this exact same deceptive move.

For example, in this particular case we see that EliteMax Keto was seen on Shark Tank.

However, just last week I saw the exact same ad with the same headline, same sisters, promoting a completely different product called Evolution Lean Keto.

The two sisters listed above are actually not named Anna and Samantha Martin, and they’re not even sisters.

Their names are actually Sarah Nuse and Megan Reilly, and they appeared on Shark Tank to pitch their product called Tippi Toes.

Tippi Toes is actually a dance school for young kids, and is not a supplement at all.

You can watch a snippet of the episode here:

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzfwaXgyQq0]

Another thing you’ll notice is that if you click on the get your bottle link, it redirects to a completely different product.

I just took a video of it so you can see what I’m talking about, see below:

This is just the tip of the iceberg, but it goes to show you that the entire story you are reading is completely misleading.

Where To Buy EliteMax Keto

According to the manufacturer, this particular supplement is exclusively sold on their official website.

Unlike several other supplements in this category, it’s available to buy on a one-time basis.

The prices are listed as the following:

1 Bottle: $59.94
Buy 2 Get 1 Free: $33.00 per bottle
Buy 3 Get 2 Free: $29.60 per bottle

It’s unclear whether or not they offer a free trial of their product.

If they do, I would suggest you use caution. Several consumers have reported deceptive billing practices with similar products, citing they were unaware they would be charged the full price for the pills.

Recommendation

There’s scant evidence that keto supplements actually work just as effectively as a keto-based diet.

My wife has been using a supplement called Keto OS for a couple of years now, and she swears by it.

I, on the other hand, didn’t seem to get much of a result from it.

There’s a chance that EliteMax Keto may work, but that chance is very low.

The simple fact that they tried to claim they were seen on Shark Tank is enough to raise some serious red flags.

Additionally, several critical questions are unanswered on their official website:

“What are the ingredients?”

“Who makes it?”

“Where are the reviews?”

“How exactly does EliteMax keto work compared to other supplements?”

Without these questions being answered, I would steer clear of it for now until we can get some feedback coming in from real customers.

DSN Code Black Review

About DSN Code Black

It’s no secret that getting old really sucks. For most men, it’s usually a lack of testosterone that is the culprit.

When Testosterone Replacement Therapy isn’t an option, a fair number of guys turn to over the counter remedies to help “fix” their problem.

I get it, testosterone replacement is expensive and quite frankly, even if it were cheaper, a lot of people would have some hang ups and feel uncomfortable with going ahead and trying it out as it is pretty expensive.

To this extent, DSN Code Black promises to deliver a combination of all natural ingredients that have been shown to be somewhat effective at helping to improve muscle mass, increase sex drive, increase strength, and improve hormone production.

All you have to do is take 2 capsules daily, and within a few weeks your body will be transformed. DSN Code Black claims you may “unleash your inner beast” with their patented blend of all natural ingredients.

But is DSN Code Black really a “safe way to support your body’s natural production of testosterone”?

Here’s what we found out while researching their pills.

What’s The Deal With Testosterone Decline?

They correctly mention numerous times throughout their site that, as a man ages, his testosterone levels start to decline.

I can attest to this fact.

I’m about to turn 37 this Friday, and I could sense a drop in my testosterone levels right around the age of 35 or so.

For some, this drop can occur much sooner.

According to medical research, most men begin to experience a gradual decline in testosterone levels right around the age of 30.

The causes are wide ranging, and include things like:

Ageing
Primary Hypogonadism: This includes things like undescended testicles, klinefelter’s syndrome, and even physical injury to the testicles.
Secondary Hypogonadism: This includes things like pituitary disorders, Kallmann syndrome, obesity, and medications.

You can learn more about the causes of Low Testosterone here.

According to some reports, it’s been cited that as much as 1 in 4 men over the age of 30 suffer from low testosterone.

That makes for a big market.

Ingredients In DSN Code Black

According to the products website, DSN Code Black contains the following ingredients:

Vitamin D3 1000 IU
Zinc 30 mg
T-365 Complex: Which includes epimedium sagittatum, Tongkat Ali, Tribulus Terrestris, Saw Palmetto, and Stinging Nettle 880 mg

What is T-365 Complex?

There’s several mentions of T-365 complex throughout both the products official website, as well as their marketing materials.

It appears that T-365 is the proprietary blend of ingredients that DSN Code Black uses to help boost your testosterone.

Despite the marketing claims, most of these ingredients have not been shown effective at helping to increase testosterone in humans.

For example, time and time again, the ingredient Tribulus Terrestris has been proven ineffective at increasing testosterone levels in men.

The ingredient Horny Goat Weed has been shown to produce phosphodiesterase type 5 effects. (Source)

With that said, there has been no conclusive evidence supporting the claim that it can help with testosterone function.

If it does at all, the effect is minimal.

One study did show that Horny Goat Weed can mimic the effects you would get with increased testosterone, but no actual serum testosterone level increases were noted.

Similarly, the ingredient Saw Palmetto has been shown to help with symptoms of Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH).

However, it also hasn’t been shown to have any noticeable effect on serum testosterone levels in healthy male adults when compared to a placebo.

DSN Code Black Mixed Online Reputation With Consumers

Despite the mixed clinical evidence supporting their claims, there are some consumers that have reported good results.

With that said, positive anecdotal reports are few and far between.

For example, on Amazon the average star rating is 2.3 out of 5 stars.

This is only based on a total of 8 reviews, which is hardly conclusive proof as to whether or not DSN Code Black works.

Some users report that it’s a “decent product“, while others call it a “huge waste of money and time“.

There was one review posted on Youtube, where the user claims that “he feels so much energy” and “is always happy”.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2WfMNum440]

It’s unclear if he’s talking about DSN Code Black specifically, but some of the comments seem to dispute that notion.

To be frank, this “review” seems to be a paid endorsement of the product and nothing more.

The reviewer doesn’t talk about any other benefits he may have received from the product, apart from the increase in energy.

DSN Code Black Reviews On 3rd Party Sites

Unfortunately, there aren’t many other reviews specifically from individuals that have actually tested the product.

A simple search for something like “DSN code black real reviews” turns up a mix of “review sites” who simply posted a research-based review of it.

None of them appear to have actually used the product itself.

DSN Code Black Pricing & Refund Policy

If purchased directly from the manufacturer, a one-time order of DSN Code Black retails at $102 plus $6.95 S&H.

Alternatively, you can enroll in their free trial program, which allows you to try the product for 14 days are a modest cost of $4.95 for shipping.

The official terms and conditions state that the trial period does not begin until 3 days after ordering.

This will allow the product to be shipped to you, and ensure that you have a full 14 days to try it.

Keep in mind that the manufacturer will charge you the full price for the product 18 days after ordering if you do not call to cancel.

This is a common complaint of many users of DSN Code Black.

They incorrectly assume that they are receiving a free sample of the product.

In reality, they will be charged the full price of $89.88 for the pills.

Additional, you will be shipped a fresh bottle of the pills every 30 days until you call to cancel.

Special Note About Free Trials

Based on my personal experience, you should avoid getting involved with free trials.

As mentioned earlier, they usually rely on the consumer thinking that they are just receiving a sample of the product.

Oftentimes, consumers find out the hard way when they go to check their credit card statement and see they’ve been charged the full price for the product.

We talk about this pretty extensively in our guide to free trials here.

If you or someone you know feels they have been cheated by a free trial, click here to see your best course of action.

Note: You can completely avoid dealing with the potential downfalls to free trials by simply ordering the one-time purchase of DSN Code Black on their official site or on Amazon.

At $102 it’s not cheap, but at the very least you won’t have to worry about getting charged down the road.

As of this review, it’s not sold in stores like GNC, Walmart, Walgreens, or CVS. I will update this review accordingly if that ever changes.

Shady Marketing Behind These Pills

Dyna Storm Nutrition has used deceptive marketing techniques in the past.

In a post we published just a couple of years back, it was asserted that DSN pre workout was used by NBA player Lebron James.

This is not the first time we’ve seen Lebron James’ likeness being used to promote supplements like this.

Throughout our investigation, we noted numerous discrepancies between what DSN was claiming, and what was actually true.

It looks like they are continuing on this trend.

For example, I recently came across an ad that looked like this:

Upon clicking on the ad, we were led to a page which appeared to be posted on the CNN website.

There are numerous claims made on this website, but the most striking one is the claim that DSN Code Black will increase your penis size.

They claim that it does this by making the 2 erectile chambers leading in to the penis (collectively known as the Corpora Cavernosum) longer and wider.

It’s also claimed that this increase in size may be achieved in as little as 4 weeks after starting DSN Code Black usage.

However, the simple truth behind these claims cannot be substantiated.

As we’ve discussed several times in previous articles, penis size cannot be permanently increased through pills alone.

Additionally, the article in question is a fictitious marketing ploy to try to get you to believe that their product was featured on CNN.

This is simply not the case…

Why Is This DSN Code Black Ad Fake?

First off, there is no “Laura Elassar” that works at CNN.

There’s a journalist named Alaa Elassarwho contributes to CNN, but this is not the same person.

Second, this is not the CNN website.

You can verify this by simply looking at the url address.

Additionally, you’ll see that Dr. Oz is quoted as saying “anybody can last 2 hours in bed with this pill”.

Yet, if you search for this exact quote, it’s nowhere to be found.

Does DSN Code Black Really Work?

I actually ordered a bottle and will be testing it out soon.

However, despite the fancy marketing, it’s hard to believe that DSN Code Black will do what the manufacturer claims.

There is some evidence that certain ingredients may help with your overall sex drive.

But the claim that it will grow you any significant size is just downright ludicrous.

Never in a million years could any supplement like this one provide you with actual big size gains because it just does not work that way, so try not to get your hopes up when you see claims like that.

Couple this with the fact that the vast majority of real reviews don’t paint a very good picture, the product is severely over-priced, and they use deceptive marketing to sell their product, we say take a pass.

Red PCT 2.0 Review

What is Red PCT 2.0?

Developed and marketed by a company called Red Supplements, Red PCT 2.0 is the follow up formula to the original Red PCT.

It’s primary use is as an anti-estrogen supplement, and it may help control estrogen levels and boost testosterone levels in healthy males.

For those of you who didn’t see my Red PCT review, click here to check it out.

Basically, I loved the original Red PCT and it delivered on its promises in a way that not all similar supplements for men wind up doing.

It’s legit one of the best all natural testosterone boosters I’ve ever tested, and that means a lot coming from a guy who’s tested dozens of them.

Before we dive in to exactly what Red PCT 2.0 does, let’s first discuss exactly what a PCT is used for.

What Is A PCT?

PCT stands for Post Cycle Therapy, which is a way of restoring hormonal imbalances that occur after steroid use.

PCT’s are generally taken in 2 different forms:

Drugs: While traditionally used to treat infertility in women, medications like Clomid have found their use as a PCT for quite some time.
Supplements: A new breed of supplements has popped up in the last few years, promising to have similar effects to PCT drugs.

Red PCT 2.0 neatly falls into the second category.

We have personally researched several PCT based compounds, including Arimistane, Forma Stanzol, and Novaplex.

Each of them work to varying degrees of effectiveness, but Arimistane is quite possibly the only proven post cycle therapy that truly can work.

PCTs work by inhibiting an enzyme called Aromatase, which is responsible for converting androgen to estrogen.

By suppressing this enzyme, in theory your testosterone levels should increase fairly dramatically.

What’s The Difference Between The Original Red PCT and Red PCT 2.0?

The original Red PCT formula contained a healthy amount of Arimistane, which was divided up into 3-1 capsule doses throughout the day.

It also contained ingredients like N-Acetyl L-Cysteine and Chlorophytum Borivilianum, both of which are claimed to be potent testosterone boosters.

I reached out to Red Supplements to ask them why they removed the original version from the shelves, but have yet to receive a response.

Since Arimistane is in a little bit of legal-limbo at the moment, I’m guessing they did this for legal purposes.

The “new and improved” Red PCT 2.0 formula contains all natural ingredients that are supposed to mimic the testosterone-boosting effects of the original formula.

The full ingredients list includes the following:

Diindolymethane
Luteolin
Acacetin
Grape seed extract
Resveratrol
Agaricus Bisporous
Apigenin
Bioperine

Here’s a snapshot of the Red PCT 2.0 label:

Now that you know what the formula is, let’s talk about each one of these ingredients individually to give you a better sense of what you can expect.

Diindolymethane

Sometimes referred to DIM for short, this compound is a natural substance that is generated by the body after cruciferous vegetable consumption.

Those vegetables include things like:

Broccoli
Kale
Cabbage
Cauliflower
Brussel Sprouts
Radishes

According to Verywellhealth.com, DIM is reported to “produce changes in estrogen metabolism”.

It also has numerous other claimed benefits, and has been researched in it’s therapeutic potential of:

Luteolin

Another one of the key ingredients in Red PCT 2.0 is Luteolin, a naturally occurring flavinoid that has potential anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. (Source)

According to the manufacturer,Luteolin has recently been “studied for its ability to inhibit estrogen biosynthesis by decreasing aromatase expression and destabilizing aromatase protein”.

In that study, which was conducted in 2012, it was recommended that Luteolin undertake additional investigation to prove these claims.

Unfortunately we were unable to identify any more recent studies involving Luteolin.

Resveratrol

This particular ingredient can be found in a wide array of supplements, including anti-aging supplements like Mitoboost, testosterone boosters like Test Freak, and even joint-relieving supplements like Instaflex Advanced.

According to WebMD, Resveratrol is part of a group of compounds call polyphenols.

Polyphenols are essentially micro nutrients that we get from plant-based foods like strawberries, blackberries, apples, and beans.

Some of the claimed benefits include things like:

A lowering of heart disease risk factors
Anticancer effects
Insulin resistance prevention

One study, which was published in 1997, showed that Resveratrol is an agonist for the estrogen receptor.

Acacetin

Acacetin is another flavanoid with anti-inflammatory properties.

Otherwise known as Chrysin, Acacetin has found it’s use in bodybuilding as a effective inhibitor of aromotase.

Again, the theory is that inhibiting aromotase, it can be effectively used to reduce estrogen levels and boost testosterone.

According to WebMD, Chrysin has numerous benefits, including:

Treating anxiety
Gout
Erectile dysfunction
Baldness
Cancer prevention

Grape seed extract

If it wasn’t obvious from the name, grape seed extract is exactly what it sounds like…the extract from grape seeds.

It’s specifically derived from the ground up seeds of red wine grapes, and is used to treat a number of diseases. (Source)

With that said, there hasn’t been a lot of evidence supporting the claim it’s an effective estrogen inhibitor.

For example, one recent study involving 39 postmenopausal women concluded that there was no effect on plasma estrogens or precursors of androgens.

With that said, one study published in 2006 did show some promise in patients undergoing breast cancer treatment.

The end result is that further research is necessary.

Agaricus Bisporus Extract

Sometimes consumed as a food or tea,Agaricus Bisporus Extract is a fungus that originates from Brazil. (Source)

It’s used in Red PCT 2.0 as a possible natural aromatase inhibitor, and several studies have supported this claim. (Study 1, 2)

Apigenin

A potent inhibitor of the enzyme CYP2C9, Apigen is a flavone that has numerous health benefits, including:

A reduction in anxiety
Anti-inflammatory effects
Anti-bacterial and antiviral activities

Bioperine

Bioperine is used in numerous other supplements we’ve personally tested, including MaxGenics and Zyalix.

It’s actually one of the only ingredients in Red PCT 2.0 that has no effect as an aromotase inhibitor, and is simply included in the formula for it’s supposed “bioenhancing” qualities.

It’s a branded extract of black pepper, making up about 95% piperine.

Is Red PCT 2.0 Safe?

While the official website claims that there are no side effects with Red PCT 2.0, some of the research suggests otherwise.

For example, Livestrong.com lists the following potential side effects with Diindolymethane:

Darkening of the urine
Increased bowel frequency
Headaches
Gas
Nausea
Diarrhea

Additionally, supplements containing Resveratrol may interact with blood thinners like Coumadin, as well as otc pain medications like aspirin and ibuprofen.

Click Here for a full list of potential drug interactions with Resveratrol.

Does this mean that Red PCT 2.0 will cause adverse effects?

Not in the least.

But just like with any other supplement, you should always use caution and consult with your physician first.

How To Use Red PCT 2.0

Just like with the original formula, this supplement is designed to be take 3 times a day.

It quite simply breaks down like this:

Morning: One capsule

Afternoon: One capsule

Evening: One capsule

The manufacturer states that you can take with or without food, but I can tell you from experience that supplements like this seem to work better on an empty stomach.

Unlike with the original formula, you can take Red PCT 2.0 longer than 4 weeks.

In fact, the suggested time-frame states that you can take it for 8 – 12 weeks at a time before cycling off.

Red Supplements recommends that you run a full cycle of Red Growth for 4 full weeks first, and then take their PCT 2.0 formula.

What do the Red PCT 2.0 Reviews Say?

So far, there hasn’t been any reliable feedback on this supplement published. I attribute that to the fact that it was literally just released less than 2 weeks ago.

As reviews start to come in, we will update the review to reflect what consumers are saying about it.

My Personal Results

I have a bottle of Red PCT 2.0 on the way, and will begin testing it shortly.

Check back for updates.

Where To Buy Red PCT 2.0

The only place you can find Red PCT 2.0 for sale is on their official website, www.redsupplements.com.

It retails at $49.99, and they routinely offer discounts and special offers.

Interestingly enough, it’s a bit difficult to find Red PCT 2.0 as a stand alone product.

If you search their site, you’ll initially think that you’rerequired to buy both the PCT formula and their Red Growth supplement, at a total price of $99.99.

Red Supplements recommends that you run a full cycle of Red Growth, and then follow up with a cycle of Red PCT 2.

We talked about exactly how to take it above.

Recommendation

I’ve taken several of the Red Supplements line of products, and can state with complete confidence that Red PCT 2.0 is likely a winner.

It has a solid lineup of ingredients, a fair price, and has the potential to be a game changer in the world of testosterone boosters.

Its benefits to several aspects of male health in general as well as boosted athleticism and performance potential, Red PCT 2.0 carries several benefits that make it worth trying out.

Do I think it will work better than the original?

I’m a bit torn on that…

Arimistane is a powerful supplement, and I’m not sure if DIM and some of the other ingredients can essentially “replicate” those kinds of results.

The only way I’ll now for sure is by personally testing it, which I plan on doing shortly.

Evolution Lean Keto Review

What is Evolution Lean Keto?

Developed by a company called Keto diet supplements, Evolution lean keto is a natural supplement that promises to burn fat, and put your body into a state of ketosis.

According to the manufacturer, Evolution Lean Keto is a safe and simple way to achieve ketosis without the negative side effects often associated with a traditional ketogenic diet.

In order to accomplish this, Evolution lean keto claims to use health, all-natural ingredients in their formula to help you achieve this.

On top of this, the manufacturer claims that you only need to take 2 capsules daily with water, and before long you’ll experience increased energy and focus.

Looking at the website, you may think Evolution Lean Keto is your ticket to getting rid of unwanted fat and looking better overall.

But does it really work?

Let’s walk you through it all.

What Is The Keto Diet And Does It Work?

Keto diets are nothing new. They’ve actually been around for several decades, but have begun to make a resurgence thanks to multiple companies selling keto-related products.

A Ketogenic diet (shortened to just Keto Diet), is essentially a low carb, high-fat diet that apprently offers numerous health benefits.

One of those benefits is, as you might have guessed, weight loss.

There’s mixed evidence on whether or not keto diets are truly effective.

For example, there have been numerous studies that have been conducted showing that keto diets can plat a role in helping to improve sleep, cognition, thyroid function, and even cardiovascular health. (Source)

However, other studies have concluded that keto-related diets may only work for obese patients. (Source)

Furthermore, it’s been shown in related studies that a keto diet may provide beneficial effects in the long term. (Source)

The key phrase here, however, is “a keto diet”…

Does that mean that a keto supplement can replicate the same effects?

Not much is known in that regard.

We have personally tested a few supplements in this niche, including Keto OS.

What Are The Ingredients In Evolution Lean Keto?

The manufacturer doesn’t explicitly list or state what the ingredients are, only that it “contains ingredients to keep you in ketosis”.

Well, that’s not very helpful for us, is it?

A quick search for the ingredients list also led us to come up short.

Are the people behind Evolution Lean Keto trying to hide something from us?

Well, it turns out that the answer to that question is likely “yes”.

If you can’t find the ingredients list from a simple Google search or directly from the manufacturer, typically speaking, something is up.

Was Evolution Lean Keto On Shark Tank?

Short answer, no.

The long answer requires a bit of explaining.

You see, I originally learned about Evolution Lean Keto while browsing through my Yahoo news feed.

I came across an advertisement that stated “I tried keto for just one month and this happened.”

When I clicked on the ad, it led me to a page that looked like the “Entertainment Today” website.

Throughout this article, they claim that the product itself landed a multi-million dollar deal from the investors on the hit TV show “Shark Tank”, in exchange for 25% of their company.

Evolution Lean Keto was apparently created by Anna and Samantha Martin, two sisters from the US who developed it as a substitute for their keto diets.

However, this story is completely fake.

If you read this article, you’ll see that Anna and Samantha Martin are fictitious characters that were created to make you believe they were seen on Shark Tank.

There’s been several other supplements that have pulled a similar fast one, including a testosterone booster and another weight loss pill called Slimfit 180.

Where To Buy Evolution Lean Keto

The only place you can buy their pills is on their official website, which I’m not going to link to for various reasons.

The primary reason I refuse to do so is that they are scamming people with their free trial.

Going back to this supposed “Shark Tank” article, you’ll see that they are offering a “free” bottle of Evolution Lean Keto.

However, it’s not actually free.

When you fill out your information on their site, you’re led to a final checkout page where the truth emerges.

At first glance, it looks like you only have to pay a small shipping charge of $4.95 to get your free bottle.

But if you look closely, there’s some fine print that you likely missed.

It says the following:

We take great pride in the quality of our products and are confident that Evolution Lean Keto is the most effective and powerful dietary supplement on the market today.If for any reason you do not find this product is right for you please contact us immediately.

By placing an order you will be enrolled in our refill membership program.

This program will charge $89.95 for your trial of Evolution Lean Keto on the 14th day and ship a full-size bottle every 30 days thereafter until you cancel.You can cancel or modify your membership anytime by calling 855-511-6309.

So essentially you’ll be charged the full price for the product just 14 days after ordering Evolution Lean Keto.

This is a very common tactic to get people to sign up for a free trial.

Recommendation

If I were you, I would run for the hills.

Not only does this Evolution Lean Keto likely not work, but they’re clearly not interested in selling you a halfway decent product.

Even if it did work, the fact that they use deceptive marketing (the Shark Tank article) to sell their product should be enough to keep you from ordering it.

The fact that they would be willing to get involved in such a sketchy marketing technique should be enough to tell you that they are not to be trusted.

Kognizen Review

Note:I was provided 1 free bottle of Kognizen from the manufacturer, but I am not affiliated with them in any way.

All of my thoughts on this product are from my own personal testing and research.

I was recently approached by a company called MX Nutraceuticals about reviewing their supplement.

It’s been awhile since I tested out a nootropic supplement, so I figured it was high-time I gave one a shot.

What is Kognizen?

Created by MX Nutraceuticals, Kognizen is a supplement that promises to boost your energy, focus, mood, and memory.

Unlike several other Nootropic formulas like Mind Lab Pro and Accelleral, their formula is apparently designed to start working on your very first use.

Additionally, the manufacturer claims that with just 3 capsules you’ll realize an increase in alertness, short term memory retention, and reduced stress.

What Are Nootropics And Do They Really Work?

Nootropics are a class of supplements that are taken by individuals to help improve things like learning ability and memory, safeguard the brain against physical and chemical injury, and assist the brain in operating in unsettling conditions.

They include chemical compounds like Bacopa Monnieri, Panax Ginseng, L-Theanine, and Caffeine.

They’re a bit controversial in the sense that they are a bit understudied, and even have the potential to affect brain plasticity.

I’m not going to get into a full discuss of what Nootropics are here, but if you’d like to learn more about what they are, what they’re designed to do, and the science behind them, click here to read our full guide.

A Clinical Look At The Kognizen Ingredients

According to the product label on the Kogizen website, the only ingredients contained in the supplements are:

L- Theanine: 300 mg
Caffeine: 150 mg
Ginkgo Biloba: 180 mg
Ashwaghanda Root Extract: 450 mg
Korean Panax Ginseng: 360 mg
Rhodiola Rosea: 435 mg
Vitamin B1: 9 mg
Vitamin B3 (Niacin): 9 mg
Vitamin B6: 6 mg
Folic Acid: 0.3 mg
Vitamin B12: 0.1 mg

Click Here for a full size picture of the ingredients label.

At first glance, Kognizen looks like a simple L-Theanine and Caffeine combo.

I’ve used this specific combo numerous times in the past, and typically it works great.

In fact, the effects of l-theanine and caffeine have been well documented in numerous clinical studies, and have been show to help:

Improve alertness
Visual information processing
Attention switching
Word recognition
Improve mood

Source: (1, 2)

A typical effective dose of caffeine and l-theanine is around a 160 mg / 200 mg ratio.

Kognizen has a 150 mg / 300 mg caffeine to l-theanine ratio, which is close to the suggested dose.

Ginkgo Biloba is a natural herb that, among other things, may help with memory disorders like Alzheimer’s disease. (Source)

So what makes Ginkgo Biloba so effective, and why is it included in the Kognizen formula?

Researchers believe that it’s health benefits stem from the fact that Ginkgo is an effective antioxidant.

It contains high levels of flavonoids and terpenoids, 2 chemical compounds that have impressive antioxidant effects. (Source)

In a study conducted with 260 men and women over the age of 60, Gingko Biloba was shown to improve certainneuropsychological/memory processes. (Source)

My Personal Results With Kognizen

(Click Here
to read my “This is too long, just give me the summarized version” of this)

As I mentioned at the beginning of this review, I was provided a bottle of Kognizen free of charge to test it out.

As soon as I saw the formula, I knew this was going to work.

The only question in my mind was, “how well and for how long”.

The directions on the Kognizen label state that you should take 3 capsules per day in the morning or early afternoon.

This is good advice, because unless you plan on pulling an all-nighter, it’s not a good idea to take a supplement like this too late in the day.

If you do, you may find yourself staring at the ceiling counting sheep to try and fall asleep.

When I test out a supplement, I normally only take the smallest dosage possible so that I can keep any potential side effects at bay.

However, since the formula looked very familiar, I decided to throw caution to the wind and just went with 3 capsules first thing in the morning on an empty stomach.

That last part of the sentence above is crucial…

Whenever you take a nootropic supplement such as Kognizen, it’s absolutely essential that you take them on am empty stomach.

There’s such a huge difference between taking them on a empty vs. full stomach.

In most cases, it can be as much as a 90% difference in effectiveness.

On the first day I used Kognizen, I had a particularly challenging task ahead of me.

I was updating an article that I had written about 3 years back that needed a bit of a refresh.

The specific type of supplement that I was writing about is not a very familiar subject for me.

In fact, it’s the only review of it’s category that I have on the site, so it took a TON of extra research to make sure I was writing factual information.

Usually when I update articles like this it can take me as much as 2 or 3 days to get all the information down.

This was not the case on this particular day…

I was able to add a good 1,500 words of rich content to the review in under 3 hours, and I can completely attribute this to the Kognizen.

The words were just flowing on to the page with ease, and I was able to disseminate the information I was reading quickly and effectively.

After I was done pumping out the changes in that review, I then decided to hit the gym.

When it comes to my workouts, sometimes I take a pre workout and sometimes I don’t.

It really depends on how I’m feeling that day, and what I’m looking to accomplish.

If I know I’m in for a particularly challenging workout, I’ll take either a couple of pills of a fat burner called Instant Knockout, or a powdered pre-workout called 4 Gauge.

On this particular day, I wanted to see if the Kognizen alone would help me power through my workout.

After all, most of the pre workouts I take do essentially the same thing as the fast-acting nootropics do.

Although I don’t recommend this to the average individual, I took 1 additional capsule of Kognizen about 45 min. prior to my workout.

On the drive to the gym, I could sense it was kicking in.

What followed was one of the most intense workouts I’ve had in a really long time.

By the end of the day, I could tell that it was starting to wear off, but not in a bad way.

For example, when I took a supplement called Addieup, it actually worked about the same as Kognizen.

However, at the end of the day I experienced this really bad come down, which left me basically feeling like shit.

This was not the case with Kognizen.

The effects seemed to just wear off gradually, and I felt totally fine when it was all said and done.

I continued taking Kognizen for the next 10 days, and for the first half of the week it was still working as well as it did on that very first day.

My motivation was kicked in to high gear, I was getting things done very quickly, and even noticed I was sleeping better.

However, it was towards the end of the first week that I began to notice the effects starting to wear off.

I’m not sure if it was because of the supplement itself, but I didn’t seem to be getting that laser-like focus that I’d been getting every morning.

It was then that I realized something…

I looked at the label and saw this:

For optimal results, the manufacturer specifically notes that you should take Kognizen on a 5 days on / 2 days off basis.

I was on day 7 when I realized it stopped working.

It’s for this reason that I would suggest you follow their recommendations, they ARE there for a reason!

In Summary

Kognizen definitely works, there’s no ifs, ands, or buts about it.

It helped me both with writing about boring topics, as well as my gym workouts.

With that said, follow the directions on the label. I went against their recommendations and took it for about 10 days straight.

As a result, I noticed I started to build a tolerance.

They recommend that you take it on a 5 days on / 2 days off schedule.

This will help to reduce any potential tolerance build-up, as well as keep it working the way it’s intended to.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Works fast
I didn’t notice any side effects with Kognizen
They ship worldwide
Relatively inexpensive when comapared to various other nootropic supplements

Cons

Will build a tolerance if you take it everyday for too long
Not available in stores

Where To Buy

You can find Kognizen for sale on their official website, www.Kognizen.co.uk.

One bottle will run you approximately $52.86, and they also offer a monthly subscription that is way cheaper.

For example, if you sign up for the monthly subscription, instead of paying the full price, you’ll only pay $26.50 for the first month, and then $39.65 for each bottle afterwards.

If you’re on the fence about committing to something like that, just go with one bottle to start.

Once you see it’s working for you, you can always switch over to the monthly auto-rebill option.

Of course, you can cancel the monthly option anytime by simply emailing them.

As of this review, Kognizen is not sold in stores like CVS, Walmart, Walgreens, or Amazon.

If this ever changes I’ll be sure to update it here.

Recommendation

If you’re looking for an effective Nootropic supplement, Kognizen would definitely be towards the top of my list.

In fact, if I had a Top 10 it would almost certainly be on there.

Maybe even a Top 5 front-runner.

With that said, be sure to follow their dosing recommendations. I was stupid enough to continue taking it past the 5 day break date, and was scratching my head as to why it stopped working.

It was only then that I realized that you need to cycle nootropics like this to avoid building a tolerance.

Lesson learned, although I’ve already been taught this lesson 🙂

Probiotic Warnings – A Licensed Pharmacist Shares His Thoughts

Probiotics Overview

Over the past decade there has been a very clear trend towards the use of probiotics.

Bacteria live in our gut in a natural balance and directly affect the functioning of the human body.

The theory of probiotic use relates to the idea that a triggering event – antibiotic use, poor diet, infection – can knock this gut flora out of balance and putting the proper healthy bacteria into our bodies can restore that balance.

Probiotics Studies

There is mounting research to back all of this up.

Studies have shown that probiotics are effective in treating the following:

Probiotics may reduce the incidence of antibiotic-related diarrhea.
Probiotics may reduce the duration and severity of all-cause infectious diarrhea.
Probiotics may reduce the severity of pain and bloating in patients with irritable bowel syndrome.
Probiotics may reduce the incidence of atopic dermatitis in at-risk infants.

There is preliminary support for treatment of symptoms.

In addition to these, certain gut bacteria species and levels have been correlated with mental and brain health, body weight, mental clarity, and on and on.

There is no doubt that the use of probiotics can be highly beneficial and we will continue to see abundant research in this area.

Potential Downsides To Probiotics

Now for the current drawbacks with probiotic therapy. The research is still very young.

There are thousands of strains of bacteria living inside of us and the numbers are in the billions and billions.

We have been able to correlate different strains with different disease processes, but we still have a long way to go.

Because we don’t know the specific balance and there is significant difference from person to person, it is unknown whether the same strains and amounts are the best for everyone.

Another challenge is that many of the claims are anecdotal and haven’t been tested in appropriate double blind studies.

Probiotics have the potential to be very beneficial, but they aren’t a panacea or a cure all.

Many people have very health guts, good diets and eat plenty of food with live cultures and have absolutely no need to add probiotics to their regimen.

There are thousands of probiotics that are hitting the market.

If I were to select a probiotic I would stick with a larger brand name and specifically one that has been clinically tested.

Probiotics Precautions and Contraindications:

By and large, probiotics have very few side effects.

The most common would be flatulence or mild abdominal discomfort.

If a quality probiotic, from a reputable manufacture is selected the chance of a pathological infection is extremely rare.

That being said, there are people at higher risks for more serious adverse effects (see below) and probiotics should be avoided.

Do not take this medication if you have:

Weakened Immune System
Short Bowel Syndrome
Ulcerative Colitis
Damaged Heart Valves
Severely Ill
Immunocompromised

Administration:

Taking antibiotics along with probiotic can reduce the effectiveness of the probiotic.

To avoid this interaction, take probiotic products at least 2 hours before or after antibiotics

Can I take Probiotics if I am pregnant, planning to become pregnant or breastfeeding?

Probiotics are listed as POSSIBLY SAFEwhen taken by mouth appropriately while pregnant and breastfeeding.

Probiotics have been used safely in pregnant and breast-feeding women, but not all strains have been tested.

Moderate Interactions

Auto-Immune Medications (immunosuppressants for transplant, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, etc.)
- azathioprine (Imuran)
- cyclosporine (Neoral, Sandimmune)
- mycophenolate (CellCept)
- tacrolimus (Prograf)
- sirolimus (Rapamune)
- prednisone (Deltasone, Orasone)
- corticosteroids (prednisone, etc)
- and others

Denzel Washington & Dr. Phil Did NOT Develop Some ED Pill

Have you seen this ad?

I was scrolling through my Yahoo news feed yesterday, like I do every morning, when I stumbled across it.

After I clicked on it, it led to a page that screamed the following headline:

Denzel Washington’s ED Cure Has Experts In Awe & Big Pharma Is Terrified

It’s not the first time I’ve seen an ad like this on yahoo.

In fact, just last week I posted an article that took down the claim that Morgan Freeman developed some cure for ED as well.

And in an article I published back in early September, I broke down another similar scam with a supplement called Alpha TRT.

This particular page is claiming that Denzel Washington, in conjunction with Dr. Phil, developed some revolutionary new pill called Vigatron that literally cures ED.

Now of course, it should be glaringly obvious that a succesful actor such as Denzel Washington should not need to be involved in erectile dysfunction remedies, but alas, apparently people are believing this and have been falling for it hook line and sinker.

They quote him as saying the following:

Dr. Phil and I have done our research, and spoken to industry insiders. And they helped us create this product Vigatron and boy can I tell you, this stuff is potent. I’ve tried Viagra, I’ve tried Red Ginseng, I’ve tried Cialis.

Vigatron blow them all away.

Pretty amazing, right? I mean, a “cure” for ED!?

That would be one of the biggest scientific breakthroughs of modern times.

The simple fact is, this entire story is completely fictional.

Much like many similar scams that have come before it, the folks behind this one are preying on people’s familiarity with certain celebrities and using bold language to draw them in and ultimately, take their money.

And I’m going to prove it to you here.

Red Flag #1: This is NOT The Daily News Website

Despite looking like it, this is not in fact the Daily News website.

Need proof?

Look at the url in the address bar, and tell me what it says.

That’s right. It doesn’t say “DailyNews.com”, but instead says “e-newsworthy.com/denzel”.

Want more proof?

Here’s a cool trick…

Change the “denzel” at the end of that url to “zuck-o” and watch what happens.

I’ll do it for you to save some time.

It’s amazing, isn’t it.

The website just magically changed from “Daily News” to “Entertainment Today” with the click of a mouse.

That’s because this entire Denzel Washington ED pills article is a complete scam.

Here’s some more proof.

Red Flag #2: The name of the product keeps changing

When I originally clicked on the ad yesterday, the whole article was talking about a pill called Vigatron.

Yet, when I went back to the exact same page this morning, it show a completely different product called Alpha TRT.

Same exact copy, but completely different product.

I can almost 100% guarantee you that, if you go back to this page right now, they’ll be a completely different product being pushed.

But wait, there’s more!!

Try googling something like “Denzel Washington and dr. phil e.d pill“, and this is what you get.

The only legit article you’ll come across here is the first one from Fatherly.com.

They briefly mention the fact that Denzel Washington’s name has been used to push supplements like this before.

We’ve outed nearly all of them, including Alpha ZXT, Brain Plus IQ, and Formula Focus.

If you click on any of the other results of the search, again the name keeps changing.

For example, the 3rd result claims that Denzel developed a product called Testo Rev.

Further down the search results we see that the name of the miracle cure is actually Apexatropin, a scam we outed awhile back.

And on and on it goes.

Red Flag #3: Denzel Washington Hasn’t Ever Been On Dr. Phil

I just tried searching for an episode where Denzel Washington was on the Dr. Phil show, and unsurprisingly, couldn’t find anything.

First I tried searching the Dr. Phil website to find the exact episode.

Then I tried a quick google video search:

Again, no results showing he’d ever even been on the show, much less was pushing some type of “ed cure”.

“But what about that first result in the search, Rob?”

Ok, let’s click on it.

When you do, this is what you see.

When you click on it, this is what you get.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avZAfIswFTU]

So clearly not what you were looking for.

This whole video is basically some guy who took soundbites of Dr. Phils voice and used them to ‘have a conversation’ with some male enhancement company.

It’s not even really that funny, but, that’s what it is.

So What’s The Purpose Of This Whole Thing?

You’re probably wondering why would someone bother doing all of this, right?

I mean, why lie and say that Denzel Washington created some crazy good ED pill.

Well, it all boils down to one thing and one thing only….money. (big surprise there, huh?)

Let me explain…

If you revert back to the article, you’ll see Denzel Washington is quoted as saying that they’re offering samples of their product to the public.

If you click on the link, it takes you to a page telling you that you need to pay just a small shipping fee of only $4.89.

$5 for a free bottle of supplements!?What could go wrong!?

Well, it turns out a lot more than you bargained for.

If you scroll down a bit, you’ll see the real truth behind this supposed “free sample”.

You’re reading it right…

They’re going to bill you the full price of the product 18 days after you order, in this case $97.49.

What’s even worse is that, if you don’t call to cancel, they will continually bill you every 30 days and send you another bottle of the pills.

This is what’s known as an “auto-rebill” program, and believe it or not, it’s perfectly legal.

Is it moral? Not a chance.

But do you think the guys that are getting rich off of you care about that?Fat chance…

Conclusion

These scams never cease to amaze me how many people get sucked into them.

I get SO many emails from people saying stuff like “I can’t believe Denzel Washington put his name behind this product!”.

Or, “I saw this pill being advertised on CNN, they should be ashamed of themselves for promoting such a scam!”.

The simple truth is, Denzel Washington didn’t create some cure for ED.

Neither did Morgan Freeman, Tim Allen, or any other celebrity for that matter.

The entire scam is designed to get you to do one thing and one thing only…

Sign up for a free trial, which ultimately 90% of people signing up won’t realize that they’ll be billed some astronomical price 14 days later.

What can I do if I’ve been scammed by this already?

All hope is not lost. Your best option is to call to cancel your trial of whatever product you signed up for right away. If you’re persistent enough, you might even be able to get your money back.

I wrote an entire article on how to do this, click here to check it out.

The second thing you should do is share this article on Facebook and Twitter.

The more people that know about this scam, the less people that will be able to get scammed by it.

Afinil Express Review

Afinil Express Intro

Ever since the movie Limitless came out back in 2011, people have been intrigued at the possibility of a ‘limitless drug‘.

Drugs like Adderall and Vyvanse have been the go-to study drug for millions of college students in the US.

With that said, many have been turning to alternative drugs that can produce the same results without the side effects.

Enter Modafinil, sometimes called by its original name ‘Provigil’.

Modafinil is a wakefulness-promoting agent that is used to treat excessive sleepiness caused by diseases like narcolepsy, sleep apnea, and shift-work disorder. (Source)

Off label, it’s been used by college students, corporate executives, and biohackers alike to help them perform better in the classroom and boardroom.

A lot of people see it as a safer and more available alternative to some “stim-heavy” prescription drugs and over the counter alternatives that have the potential for some hefty side effects.

One popular Modafinil vendor found online is Afinil Express, which is the focus of this 2018 review.

What is Afinil Express?

For the longest time, the only legit source for Modafinil online was Modafinil Cat.

I never posted a review of them, but I did buy many of their products and was surprised at how effective it was.

Fast forward 2 years and, for whatever reason, Modafinil Cat went out of business.

As a result, a bunch of guys were coming to me asking if I heard of a legit alternative to them.

It took about 7 months for me to find one, but luckily I did.

It’s called Afinil Express…

Afinil Express, as the name implies, sells various brands of Modafinil.

These include:

Modalert
Modvigil
Waklert
Artvigil

Let’s talk briefly about each of these so you can get an idea of how they’re supposed to help you.

What is Modalert?

Modalert 200 is basically the generic form of Modafinil. It’s manufactured by a company called Sun Pharmaceuticals, which is located in Mumbai, India.

The company itself has been around for a long time, establishing itself as a low-cost pharmaceutical company in 1983.

One pill of Modalert contains 200 mg, which can be broken in half (or even quarters) if a full pill comes on too strong.

I prefer to take the whole pill, as a half dose just doesn’t seem to cut it.

Modalert is essentially the same exact thing as Modafinil, with a couple of small tweaks in its onset of action.

A typical dose will kick in about 2 hours after taking it, and the effects will peak about 6 hrs in.

modalert 200 effects timeline chart — Source: AfinilExpress.com

The nice thing about Modalert is, unlike with Adderall, there’s no sudden or huge crash at the end of the day.

It’s a very slow comedown, which in many cases you won’t even notice.

This also means that while it is tapering off, you are still somewhat experiencing the positive effects while slowing slipping back into how you are accustomed to feeling.

What is Modvigil?

Modvigil, which is manufactured by a completely different pharmacy called HAB Pharma, is another brand of generic modafinil.

Hab Pharmaceuticals is another Indian pharmaceutical company that has been in business since 1980, and is a leading provider of a wide variety of generic medications.

Again, Modvigil is nearly identical to that of Modalert.

The only noticeable difference is that Modvigil hits its peak in about 5 hrs., vs. 6 hours with Modalert.

That’s at least what the manufacturer has to say.

I’ve noticed in my own personal testing that Modvigil seems to last way longer than that, with the effects tapering off at around the 8 hour mark.

Just like with Modalert, there’s no crash.

What is Artvigil?

Just like Modvigil, Artvigil is also manufactured by HAB Pharmaceuticals.

Artvigil is actually a generic version of modafinil called Armodafinil, which is also a wakefulness promoting agent and cognitive enhancer.

Long story short, it gets you awake and keeps you awake.

On average, Artvigil shares the same effects timeline of Modalert.

The same core mechanism of action exists between both of them.

They work on the brain in a number of ways, by inhibiting the reuptake of dopamine, increasing norepinephrine, elevating histamine, and causing orexin activation.

So what’s the main difference between Armodafinil and Modafinil?

Modafinil exists as two enantiomers, which are basically just different configurations of the molecule.

There’s an R and an S enantiomer, with the former being being more active than the latter.

When you use Modafinil, you’re using a racemic mixture, which means that 50% of the drug is R-modafinil and the other 50% is S-modafinil.

However, with Armodafinil, there is no mixture. (Source)

You’re only getting the R-enantiomer configuration of the molecule.

Translation: It’s a WAY stronger version.

I can concur with this, as you’ll learn in my review below.

What is Waklert?

Wakalert is the same thing as Artvigil, but it’s made by Sun Pharmaceuticals.

It has the same mechanism of action that Armodafinil dose, and the dose is exactly the same (150 mg).

However, unlike the rest of these the onset of action is about an hour longer, it lasts about 2 hours longer, and drops off 1 hour less.

So which one should I use?

The answer to this is, it depends.

In my personal experience, they all work very well.

If you help a gun to my head and told me I could only choose 1, I would say Modalert 200 would be the way to go.

If you asked me to rank them in order of most effective to least effective, I would rank them like this:

#1: Modalert
#2: Wakalert
#3: Modvigil
#4: Artvigil

Again, they are all very effective.

With that said, in my experience there were some subtle differences.

Differences In Effects Timeline

Officially, there isn’t a huge difference in how long each of these work for.

Unofficially, I experience some differences than the chart above would suggest.

For example, Modalert works for about 8 hours for me, and doesn’t come on too strong.

On the other hand, Artvigil comes on a bit too strong, and most times lasts way into the night.

If I take a dose of Artivigil any time past noon, I’ll literally be staring at the ceiling until 2 in the morning.

Modalert allows me to get a solid 5 hours of work in, completely uninterrupted, and doesn’t give me any sort of crash at the end of the day.

In my personal experience, I think it’s best that you go with the trail pack that Afinil Express offers.

It will allow you to try all 4 of them, without having to fork over a ton of cash.

You get 10 pills of each one, and it will only run you about $75.

You can pick it up on their site here – www.AfinilExpress.com

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Modafinil Safe?

Generally speaking, yes.

It’s been determined that the median lethal dose for Modafinil in lab rats is 1250 mg/kg. (Source)

To put that in perspective, in theory a 170 lb human would have to consume 96,250 mg of it to overdose.

That translates to 481 pills to cause a fatal overdose.

One study examined an unsuccessful suicide attempt by a 15 year old kid who tried to OD on Modafinil.

She took 5000 mg (50 pills) of Modafinil, and despite suffering from some headaches, nausea, and abdominal pain, survived the event with no deterioration of kidney or liver functions, and no change in blood count or BP. (Source)

According to this 2018 reddit page, a user got scammed.

With all this said, there are some potential adverse effects.

What are the side effects?

Since they’re all basically the same thing, they share nearly the same adverse effects.

I’m not gonna sugarcoat things and tell you that they’re completely side effect free, because they’re not.

Some of the more common side effects you may experience with Modafinil include:

Headache
Insomnia (especially if taken too late in the day)
Anxiety
Nausea
Upset stomach

Here’s a breakdown by %:

modafinil side effects infographic — Data Source: NIH.gov

Is This Even Legal?

Technically speaking, no.

Legally, you’re supposed to be diagnosed with a disease like Narcolepsy, Shift-work sleep disorder, or sleep apnea, and receive a prescription from a licensed physician.

With that said, there has only been one case involving modafinil possession and possession alone that resulted in an significant punishment.

In that case, the defendant had a fairly lengthy criminal record.

That was nearly the only one we could find.

If you don’t believe me, visit this article and scroll down to the “Legal Risk” section.

The author of this article did extensive research of law journals, Lexis Nexis, Google Scholar, and state-level court case searches and found no evidence of anyone who has ever been busted for possessing Modafinil alone. (other and the Missouri case)

Every instance involved possession of some other substance, and in one case the dude who was possessing Modafinil tried pushing some woman on to the train tracks!

Moral of the story? Don’t try and push someone on to the train tracks when you have a bottle of Modafinil on you.

There are certain countries where ordering Modafinil via Afinil Express is just not gonna happen.

They include the following: Austria,Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, Iceland, Indonesia, Ireland, Italy, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Mexico, Norway, Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, United Arab Emirates.

If you live in one of these countries, or are afraid of breaking any local laws, I would recommend you pick up a substance called Adrafinil.

Specifically, I would recommend you get the Nootropics All-Star Pack from Absorb Your Health.

It contains 4 powerful supplements, including Adrafinil, which is virtually the same thing as Modafinil.

And it’s fully legal in almost every country*.

You can read my full review of it here: Absorb Your Health Nootropics All Star Pack Review

and here’s a link to the All-Star pack:https://www.absorbyourhealth.com/product/brain-booster-power-pack/?ref=4349

Where To Buy

You can buy Modafinil online from Afinil Express on their official website, www.AfinilExpress.com.

Their prices are very competitive, and from all accounts they ship very quickly.

You can pay for it via credit card, Bitcoin, or Alt Coins (Bitcoin cash, Litecoin, Dashcoin, and more).

If you’re still new to Modafinil, I would definitely recommend you pick up the trial pack to start.

It contains 10 pills of each of their product offerings, and will allow you to see which one is right for you without breaking the bank.

How long will it take to get to me?

This varies widely depending on where you live.

Here are the suggested shipping times based on country:

United States: 7 – 10 days
United Kingdom: 7 – 10 days
Australia: 10 – 14 days
France: 7 – 12 days
Italy: 7 – 12 days
Mexico: 10 – 14 days

* Note: These shipping times are a suggestion and are subject to change.

Recommendation

Afinil Express is actually one of the only legit Modafinil providers available on the internet, and I’ve purchased from several of them.

If the potential side effects scare you off, or the legal consequences of buying Modafinil online concern you, then go with the Absorb Your Health Nootropics All Star Pack.

It’s completely legal in nearly every country, and will produce nearly the same result.

Additionally, there are several other potent modafinil alternatives available over the counter.

If you or someone you know has been having a hard time staying awake, staying focused, and staying motivated to get stuff done, this stuff will help you.

RX Max Force Review

One of my visitors asked me if I’ve ever heard of a supplement called RX Max Force.

I can already tell from the minute I ran a google search that this product is going to be a complete flake.

Not only is there hardly any information on it, but the information that is available is next to worthless.

Unfortunately, if I don’t post even the slightest blurb about it now, my RX Max Force review will be banished to the depths of google hell.

Buried by 1000’s of websites with the sole purpose of trying to get you to buy the product.

They’ll also be claiming s#$t like “it’s side effects free”, even though that’s a load of crap.

Every supplement I’ve ever tested, even the ones I personally recommend, are not free of side effects.

They’ll be telling you how great these pills are, without:

Ever having used it
What’s on the label
Ever having even seen what the bottle looks like
Knowing who sells it
Where it’s shipped from
Knowing if it really does work

They’ll be posting some article that was written either by a computer generated machine, or a writer in the Philippines who barely speaks a lick of English.

It happens constantly, and in the end, guys who are looking for a legit supplement review are left scouring through pages and pages of search results trying to find something legit.

My advice?

Don’t buy it (for now).

I’ll have a full review posted within a day or two, I just wanted to get this out there before the tsunami of crap review sites roll through with their “reviews” of RX Max Force.

Updated Review– What is RX Max Force?

So I was feeling a little frisky last night when I posted everything above, mainly because I’ve been very frustrated with the lack of legit supplements hitting the market.

Anyway, I had a chance to dive into what RX Max Force is, and this is what I found out.

When you google the product, there’s virtually nothing showing up.

By nothing I mean there’s basically a bunch of random forums that are showing urls that appear to have a “review” of the pills.

What happens when you go in to these forums?

I just clicked on the first one (mtgsalvation dot com) and this is what showed up:

Like I said, nothing credible.

The only page that had any semblance of information on it was the one I took a screenshot above of.

They provide a bunch of useless information that it’s not even worth repeating.

The only good thing that came out of that site was that they linked to the official website for the supplement (rxmaxforce dot com).

So what the heck is it?

At first glance, I wasn’t actually sure if this was characterized as a male enhancement supplement or a testosterone booster.

I mean, it says “male enhancement complex” right on the label.

But when you start reading their website copy, they specifically mention the following:

RX Max force is a dietary health supplement which may help support testosterone levels in the male body.

Ok, so it’s a testosterone booster then.

So what’s in this testosterone booster that makes it so effective?

What’s In RX Max Force?

The ingredients label lists the following:

Epimedium extract
Eurycoma Longifolia
Saw Palmetto
Bovine Orchic Substance
Wild Yam Extract
Sarsaparilla Root Extract
Nettle Root Extract
Boron Amino Acid Chelate

Here’s a snapshot of the label:

What we do know is that it contains a 1,489 mg blend of all of these ingredients.

What we do not know is, like with so many other supplements, what the exact amounts of each ingredients are.

This is not good for 2 reasons:

It may be significantly under-dosed.
It may cause side effects that you weren’t expecting.

Take Saw Palmetto extract for example.

The effective dose for helping with BPH is around 320 mg, taken over the course of 4-6 weeks. (Source)

But how much saw palmetto is in RX MaxForce?

We just don’t know.

Another interesting thing to note is that none of these ingredients are really suitable as testosterone boosters.

I mean, Horny Goat Weed had literally one rat study that showed a positive effect on testosterone levels. (Here’s that study)

It involved injecting rats with a rather large dose of 10 mg per kg of body weight.

To put that in human terms, a 170 lb guy would have to consume 810 mg of Horny Goat to get the same dosage.

How To Buy RX Max Force

You can only find this supplement on their official site, and there’s only two ways to buy it.

A one-time purchase, which is $89.63
A trial purchase, which is $4.69

If you decide to go with the trial, you need to be crystal clear about what’s going to happen.

That $4.69 price may sound very appealing, but they’re going to end up billing you the full price for the product just 14 days later.

It’s all right here in the terms and conditions, which many unfortunately don’t read very carefully.

If you want to cancel your trial and not get billed, you need to call them before the 14 days are up.

Here’s their customer service phone number: 844-388-6965

Conclusion

Who knows, maybe this supplement will actually be worth it.

My instincts tell me that, like so many others, it’s going to be a dud.

Until we start getting feedback from real users of RX Max Force, we’ll be left to ponder if it actually works as well as they say it does.

Until then, hold on to your credit cards, because the supplement free trial vacuum is about to be turned up to high.

For those that have already been caught up in their free trial and want to cancel, click here.

It will tell you exactly what you need to do to get out of the free trial, and may even help you get your money back if you go about it the right way.

Anna And Samantha Martin Were NOT On Shark Tank

I was skimming through my Facebook feed the other day when I came across the following post:

I clicked it, and couldn’t believe my eyes…

It was the EXACT same thing I saw just a few months back.

The short answer is this: Anna and Samantha Martin are not real people, and were never on Shark Tank. While it may appear legit, the article you were just reading is a complete fabrication. It was designed to trick you into thinking that whatever weight loss supplement, wrinkle cream, or keto pill they were promoting landed “the biggest deal in Shark Tank history”. The simple truth is, there isn’t any.

Here’s the long version…

Shark Tank Weight Loss Episode 2018

Back in late July, I posted an expose on how there was no such thing as some miracle weight loss pill seen on Shark Tank.

The jist of it went like this…

Anna and Samantha Martin, 2 sisters from Skokie, Illinois, appeared on an episode of Shark Tank in 2018 to pitch their product “SlimFit 180”.

The Shark Tank panel of judges was so impressed, that they offered the Martin sisters a $5 Million offer for 42% of their company.

They happily agreed to the offer, and everyone lived happily after ever.

Or Did They…

Back to the ad I just saw.

When I clicked on it, it took me to a page that looked eerily similar to the one I was talking about back in July.

Same picture of the Martin sisters at the top of the page, but this time they were saying they invented some moisturizer.

So which one is it?

Well, the answer to that question is…

Neither!

That’s right folks, this entire blog post is a fake.

I’ve already explained this in pretty good detail in this post, but I’ll touch on a few things here.

Anna And Samantha Martin Part 1

The first thing that may not be so obvious to the casual reader is the url of each of these websites.

At first glance, each page looks like the Entertainment Today website.

However, if you look closely, you’ll see that the urls for all of these just don’t match up.

The other dead giveaway is the side by side pics they show on the right hand side of the page.

They use the exact same name (with different before and after photos), but for completely different products.

How I Know Anna And Samantha Martin Weren’t On Shark Tank

Back to the sisters in question.

If you google their names, the first thing that shows up is this playlist on Youtube.

However, if you actually watch the video, this is not the sisters you were looking for.

This is a completely different pair of women who appeared on Shark Tank pitching a completely different product called Tippi Toes.

They are, in fact, sisters. But their names aren’t Anna and Samantha Martin.

They’re Sarah Nuse and Megan Reilly, and they ultimately landed a deal with Mark Cuban for 30% equity in exchange for $100,000.

Unfortunately for them, like so many others that have been on Shark Tank, the deal ultimately fell through.

Further down the search results we see a Facebook post by someone asking about a face cream called Allegro.

It’s not until we get a bit further down the results until we see the real truth.

This article, which was originally published on the UK Mirror site, shows that con men have been using Sandra Bullocks name to pitch a wide variety of products.

In fact, Sandra Bullocks image has been used in several of these deceptive ads.

The story is always the same, but the names of the products change on a continual basis.

The UK Mirror site specifically calls out the fact that Anna and Samantha Martin are actually two sisters named Shelly Hyde and Kara Haught.

They developed a moms swimwear product line, and consequently landed a deal with Barbara Corcoran.

You can watch the full shark tank episode below.

Conclusion

Clearly this is scam designed to trick you in to thinking that some revolutionary skin care product, weight loss pill, or face cream landed some huge deal on Shark Tank.

It didn’t…

And Anna and Samantha Martin?

They don’t exist…

Well, at least not by those names. Keep in mind that there are literally dozens of products that have been claiming they were seen on Shark Tank.

The moral of the story is that people will go to great lengths to try to dupe you into falling for their product, and if something seems suspicious, it’s probably just too good to be true.

Here’s a list of all of the ones I’ve come across in the past few months:
