SlimQuick Ultra Caffeine Free Overview
SlimQuick Ultra Caffeine Free is a weight loss supplement designed for women. The blend contains no stimulants of any kind and the product can be purchased from a number of leading Canadian pharmacies, and it is also stocked by some retail outlets, including Walmart.
Online purchases can be made via several online retailers, including Drugstore.com, and the product is also available on the Amazon marketplace, but no money back guarantee is offered.
What is SlimQuick Ultra Caffeine Free and How Does it Work?
The product is produced in the form of a caplet and is designed to be used in conjunction with a reduced-calorie diet and a sports/fitness regimen. The recommended dose is three caplets, taken twice a day. The first dose is taken at breakfast and the second dose is taken six hours later. The caplets should be washed down with 8 oz. of water and the manufacturers caution against using the supplement for longer than 16 consecutive weeks.
The blend contains quite a lengthy list of ingredients that have been chosen to provide three main benefits:
- Reduced appetite
- Fat burning
- Increased energy
SlimQuick stress that their chosen ingredients are “backed by real clinical research”, and claim one ingredient was responsible for test subjects losing “an average of 24.6 lbs. vs. 8.1 lbs. with diet alone in 90 days”. It all sound very good, but SlimQuick fail to say who conducted this study and do not provide any evidence to back up the statement. It must also be remembered that powerful ingredients do not necessarily result in a powerful blend.
Key Ingredients
The formulation contains several vitamins and mineral, which may offer general health benefits, but the main ingredient is SlimQuick Caffeine Free 6 Ways Complex (a proprietary blend). Each dose provides 634 mg, but it is impossible to speculate what benefits this will offer because although the ingredients are listed, the inclusion rates are not. Key ingredients used in the blend include:
Green tea extract (decaffeinated) | Uva-ursi |
Green tea phytosome | Acai extract |
Rhodiola extract | Chaste tree extract |
Soy extract | Brown seaweed |
Japanese knotweed extract | Phytosterols |
L-theanine |
If there is any truth to the claims that these ingredients are “backed by real clinical research” it is a pity SlimQuick failed to supply links to the various studies because their list of ingredients fails to impress. Green tea has a better reputation than its blend-buddies, but any benefits it may offer are far from being scientifically proven.
Testimonials and Customer Feedback
The SlimQuick website has a magnificently misleading webpage called “Clinical Study”. The page has a graph that shows a loss of 8.1 lbs. (diet only) compared to a loss of 24.6 lbs. (key components in SlimQuick).
The manufacturer’s name is nice and big, so it effectively dwarfs the words “key components”, but SlimQuick Ultra Caffeine Free has never been tested, so may offer no weight loss benefits at all—despite the claimed virtues of these key components. There is also an equally misleading statement attributed to a doctor, but it is still a page full of promises, with nothing to back them up.
The official website has an impressive number of testimonials that are attributed to users of the product, and the before and after pictures look very good indeed, but testimonials from such a biased source are not to be relied upon and independent reviews paint a very different picture of the product:
SlimQuick Ultra Side Effects
The manufacturers state their product is not suitable for anyone under the age of 18, and warn against using the product while pregnant of breastfeeding. They also list several medical conditions and advise users who suffer from these conditions to seek medical advice prior to using their product. They also admit the product may interact badly with some medications.
The Bottom Line – Is It Recommended
SlimQuick Ultra Caffeine Free has a retail price of $49.99 for 120 caplets (20 days’ supply) so consumers may find it a rather expensive product to use and it is hard to justify such a high price tag for a product that has not been tested. Several other issues about this product offer further reasons for concern:
- Misleading marketing tactics
- Proprietary blend (with unknown inclusion rates for key components)
- Poor independent customer feedback
The most worrying thing of all is the possible side effects this product may cause. With no specific inclusion rates available, any negative effects cannot be speculated, and the manufacturer’s warning that their product may not be suitable for some users is particularly worrying, so this product cannot be recommended. Many better alternatives are available.
