Hydroxycut has been on the market for well over a decade now. I admit, there was a time in my life where I HAD to try it.
My experience lasted approximately a week.
I was taking the supplement prior to my workouts. By the time I made it to the gym, I was heading straight to the bathroom. It was like an instant colonic for me. For some reason my body and my Gastro-Intestinal system did not like what the pill was offering me. All this supplement did for me in terms of weight loss was dehydrate me due to a severe case of diarrhea.
So as you can imagine, my support for Hydroxycut was non-existent.
(By the way the word colonic is just a nice Politically Correct (PC) term for Enema. Don’t believe me? Just ask anyone who has suffered through an enema to describe the details.)
But I digress.
Fast-forward to the present. It seems that the FDA has announced the recall of this product due to the possibility of it causing severe and permanent damage to one’s liver.
Things that make you go hmm.
I want to thank WhiteCoat over at WhiteCoat’s Call Room for letting us know about this.

@ Scott Thanks for sharing! It makes you wonder about the safety of this and like products. I wonder what else they will discover?

I’ve had similar effects with this and other products like it. Hell, I took it back when it had Ephedra in it. That and ripped fuel used to work pretty well. After they banned Ephedra they upped the caffeine and/or Guarana (not sure if i spelled that correctly) content of these products, boosting the diuretic effects. Raspberry Ketone does the same thing to me.
