What Is a Hydroxycut Cleanse?

Hydroxycut Cleanse is a seven-day program designed to aid the body in flushing waste and toxins. One of many products in the Hydroxycut line, Hydroxycut Cleanse is not promoted as a weight-loss product, but is intended to rid the body of unwanted elements.

Misconceptions

While the U.S. Food and Drug Administration urged consumers to stop taking Hydroxycut products on May 1, 2009, Hydroxycut Cleanse was not one of them. This is due to the different ingredients found in Hydroxcut Cleanse, as opposed to the traditional Hydroxycut weight-loss products.

Effects

Hydroxycut Cleanse is designed to cleanse the body's liver, colon and digestive system with a blend of more 30 ingredients that promise "Gastrointestinal & Digestive Support, Liver Health Support, Flushing Support and Wellness Support."
Iovate Health Sciences, which manufactures Hydroxycut products, also claims Hydroxycut Cleanse "contains special probiotic compounds to support healthy intestinal microflora."

Taking Hydroxycut Cleanse

The seven-day Hydroxycut Cleanse program involves taking five pills twice a day with a glass of water. Lunch and dinner are the two recommended times when the pills should be taken. For best results, it is advised that the entire seven-day routine should be followed and a cleansing diet and exercise program undertaken simultaneously. Drinking 10 glasses of water per day is also recommended when following the program.

Supplement Facts

The supplements in Hydroxycut Cleanse are as follows: glucomannan powder, senna extract, cascara sagrada extract, psyllium powder, red clover extract, guar gum, slippery elm powder, ginger extract, rhubarb extract, fennel extract, alfalfa powder, xanthan gum, inulin, oligofructose, methylcellulose, milk thistle extract, turmeric extract, picrorhiza kurroa extract, artichoke extract, betaine HCI, hyssopus officinalis extract, parsley powder, dandelion powder, licorice extract, uva ursi extract, cranberry powder, chamomile extract, marshmallow powder, opuntia ficus-indica powder, European ash powder, hibiscus powder, alpha lipoic acid, L-cysteine HCI and blueberry extract.
Because Hydroxycut Cleanse is marketed as a proprietary blend, there is no way of knowing how much of each supplement is contained in a serving of five pills.

Additional Ingredients

There are additional ingredients that go into making each serving of Hydroxycut Cleanse. These are povidone, crospovidone, stearic acid, crscarmellose sodium, coating (hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, glycerin, demineralized water), magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide and microcrystalline cellulose.
