Review
Summary |
PatentLEAN™, does not contain an active fat burner, and instead takes a different approach. In response to a market dominated with weight loss products, this company as well as many others, markets a slightly different approach. PatentLEAN™ overall is a very average and incomplete product. There are no major side effects associated with the ingredient, 3-Acetyl-7-Oxo-dehydroepiandrosterone, but without an active fat burning ingredient you will not be guaranteed weight loss.

 | Ingredients At A Glance |
|
PatentLEAN™ contains: 3-Acetyl-7-Oxo-dehydroepiandrosterone and additional binding ingredients.
* 3-Acetyl-7-Oxo-dehydroepiandrosterone - is a naturally occurring metabolite of DHEA. A safety study in humans has shown that it did not raise estrogen or testosterone levels. However, the long-term safety of this ingredient for humans has not yet been demonstrated, and, because it is chemically related to steroid hormones, the potential for adverse effects should be taken into consideration. It may however improve lean body mass by reducing cortisol and increasing testosterone-to-cortisol ratios. People wishing to take it, particularly those with a thyroid disorder, should consult a physician. More studies are still needed to determine if it is truly beneficial for weight loss alone.
• PatentLEAN™ does not contain the patented fat burner Advantra-Z®.

The retailer claims to place great importance on your inquiry.
However we tried calling and were put on hold for over 6 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. It seems email is the preferred method of contact with this retailer. We were unable to confirm how long the product had been on the market.
We appreciate companies who feature dedicated customer service departments.

 | Final Thoughts |
|
PatentLEAN™ is a relatively new approach and the active ingredient is not traditionally used for weight management. The supplement, may overtime, show some results, but we believe that burning existing fat is most important. An approach based mostly on balancing nutrition is fine, but seriously eliminating existing fat is the primary issue. As many products are, PatentLEAN™ is commonly sold at discount stores. It’s easy to believe, that this sort of availability may convey a certain sense of legitimacy, for some readers, but it is what is in the capsule that counts. There are more effective products on the market for less money.

TheFlexBelt®:
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.
