Review
Summary |
Dietex™ is most likely another “me too” type product, based around a single trendy ingredient. Users should be aware that although their appetite may be suppressed, the key to burning fat is using an active fat burner and getting enough exercise. Products only containing and appetite suppressant are often used by dieters who have other means to address nutrition and exercise or who additionally take a thermo genetic supplement.

| Ingredients At A Glance |
|
* Hoodia - is found in many diet formulas. Hoodia contains a compound called ‘P57’, which is a molecule that makes you feel full. In clinical trials, two test groups were given equal diets and placed in a setting where they were to remain sedentary. One group was given Hoodia and the other, a placebo. The hoodia group consumed on average 1000 calories a day less than the placebo group. Hoodia is a breakthrough in appetite suppressants, and was mentioned on the program 60 Minutes. This product seems somewhat limited in scope.
* Evodiamine - is a bioactive alkaloid extract from a plant called Evodiae Fructus. This Chinese herb has been used for centuries as a weight loss supplement. Unfortunately, no known studies have been published to date. This stimulant also has diuretic characteristics. Like all dietary supplements, it is recommended that you consult a professional health care provider before using any supplements.
Dietex™ contains additional ingredients as listed at the website.

We were curious if the company had any positive press reviews or testimonials as none were posted at the website for this particular product.
We tried contacting the company via phone, 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 retailer's website offers incomplete information on its product and is mostly, in our opinion, an order page.
We also found this posted at the website.
“Because each person's genetics and body chemistry is different, allow five full days for DIETEX™ to take effect. DIETEX™ works to control appetite immediately for some individuals. However, others may take up to five days to experience DIETEX'S™ potent Craving Control effect. Drinking a ZERO CARB® or ZEROTEIN® Protein Shot™ (by VPX) upon rising will also help to curb cravings and aid in the maintenance of lean muscle and reduction of body fat. Nothing is as potent or works faster than DIETEX™.”
We appreciate this type of information.

| Final Thoughts |
|
We believe that burning existing fat is paramount. In our opinion, Dietex™ does not contain a patented active fat burning component. Without an effective fat burner, we do not find Dietex™ to be a complete product. Their formulation uses nontraditional and unproven ingredients. Even with that reason aside, if you wanted to try Dietex™, they do not offer a free trial. The product is a fine, yet incomplete formulation.

TheFlexBelt® -
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.
