I am one week into my first bottle of HEAT and as it stands is one of my all time favorite supplements. The only thing that could retract is if the effects become transient. That is yet to be seen since I have only been on it one week.
I am on Paxil due to panic disorder, so I had held off on trying HEAT because of this. In the past I have tried Tight, Chizled and Hot Rox but each had its drawback. Tight made me sweat profusely and did little for appetite suppression. Chizled did good for appetite suppression but exacerbated my anxiety. Hot Rox did nothing to my anxiety or my appetite.
I am always apprehensive when it comes to stimulants because I never know how it will effect my anxiety. I nutted up and ordered a bottle of HEAT b/c my appetite was really hindering my ability to cut. I tried Leptigen (posted a review) and at the end of the second canister the thought of another drink made me nauseous. It was a band aid to my appetite when I really needed stitches (I understand some of the benefits of Leptigen are not 'felt').
Enter HEAT. I stack it with both EGCG (200 mg) and take Sesathin twice daily (have been on Sesathin over a month now). I worked my way up to full dosing at 3 pills three times per day and it has severely diminished my appetite and just as importantly did absolutely nothing to increase anxiety.
My body is absolutely content with whatever I feed it and my cravings have been zapped. It feels as if my body is not fighting to get unnecessary nutrients. I am simply content with whatever I put in my piehole.
To sum up: scale of 1-10
Energy: 2 - but this is fine. I can take an hour before bedtime and I have no trouble sleeping at all. This may be unusual as Paxil makes me very tired and HEAT does not counteract that much.
Libido - 4 - this is hard to quantify because I go in cycles and it could be a normal upswing.
Mood - 4 - Again I am not a good subject for this due to me taking 30 mg of Paxil already.
Appetite Suppression - 8 - if 10 is the all out inability to eat, then this is 8. But I think it has the perfect amount of suppression. I want to eat but just not a lot nor be templed to eat the wrong things. HEAT does both of these very well.
I have taken before pics and will post both before and after pics when this bottle is empty.
Conclusion: This product makes dieting too damned easy. I will update in a month to see of effects have diminished or not.
