Review
Summary |
Colvera is described as, “an all natural weight loss system that is designed to help your body process proteins effectively and help you build lean muscle naturally.” “Colvera™ can help you lose weight without strenuous exercise and without giving up your favorite foods. It should be noted that if you exercise a little bit each week and eliminate a few high calorie foods from your diet, you will of course lose even more weight.” The company promises a lot, but does not offer a free trial sample and a bottle sells for $59.95.

Colvera liquid capsules contain – Collagen Protein, Aloe Vera, Vegetable Glycerin and additional ingredients listed at the website.
* Collagen Protein – is another name for common gelatin. In the body it makes up connective tissues such as (skin and ligaments). It is often used in weightlifting products because it is a relatively inexpensive source of protein. No serious adverse side effects are known to exist, but more studies are still needed to determine if it alone is truly beneficial for weight management.

The makers of Colvera claims to place importance on your inquiry.
We were curious if the company had any additional positive testimonials as we found only a few at the website. However, we tried calling the provided number and were put on hold for over 4 minutes. The experience, in our opinion, was more sales oriented than consumer based.
They do however; recommend that if you have any further questions to email. The website offers information on its products, but is mostly, in our opinion a simple advertisement for its product. We were unable to contact a representative as to how long this formulation had been on the market.
We found this posted at the website:
“Will Colvera interfere with any medications I take? No, there are no reported interactions. However, as with any new medication or supplement, you should consult your physician.”

 | Final Thoughts |
|
Colvera on the surface seems to be marketed as a somewhat similar weight loss product. It is a relatively new product. The concept being sold here is that since collagen is “very important” for your body, that it can help you loose weight. Read the ingredients yourself, the product does not contain either an appetite suppressant or an active fat burner. Sure supporting nutritional health is fine, but the product was not designed to aid in weight management.
The principal difference between liquid filled capsules and traditional capsules comes down to marketing hype. Pharmaceutical companies, for generations, have relied on powder filled capsules in delivering the product directly into the bloodstream. We believe you should take the correct amount and this is best accomplished in a pre-measured traditional capsule. Colvera does not offer enough customer testimonials and the lack of supporting research on the active ingredients at this time, leads us not to be overly impressed. Even with that reason aside, if you wanted to try it, they do not offer a free trial.

The abdominal toning Flex Belt® is truly an awesome advance in technology. This device is by far the most effective we have ever seen of its kind. The results are astonishing – The Flex Belt is proven to work for everyone. In fact – in a clinical trial done with The Flex Belt, 100% of the participants received results in flattening, toning, and strengthening their stomach. The Flex Belt is not a gimmick – it is 100% medical science. It is the first EMS (Electric Muscle Stimulation) product of its kind cleared by the FDA as a class II medical device for direct to consumer sales. The Flex Belt literally flexes your stomach muscles for you so they get a very concentrated work out. It makes it so that anyone can exercise their abs anywhere and anytime and it does all the work for you. You can use it at work, around the house, while taking a walk, while exercising, watching TV etc. For consumers who don’t have the time to exercise or for those that may have tried to flatten and tone their stomachs through traditional exercise, this product is precisely what they’ve been looking for. It is also great for people that are in awesome shape and already have a great stomach – it will simply make it more strong and defined.
