Lipo 6X contains potent fat burning substances that are time-released so that they begin working immediately, but also last for hours. Individuals who cannot tolerate stimulants like caffeine or who are at risk for heart disease should not take Lipo 6X. This 2009 BodyBuilding.com Fat Loss Supplement of the Year contains ingredients like caffeine, synephrine, yohimbine and beta-phenylethylamine, which can speed up metabolism to accelerate weight loss according to "Supplements 101" by Jim Stoppani.
Taking the Product
In order to gauge your tolerance for Lipo 6X, you should begin with one capsule in the morning and one in the afternoon. After two days, you increase to two capsules in the morning and one in the afternoon. Allow two more days to assess your body's reaction before taking the full dose of two capsules in the morning and two capsules in the afternoon.
Drink More Water
Nutrex, the manufacturer of Lipo 6X, recommends that you take this product 30 minutes before a meal for best results. Drink more water to avoid dehydration, which can be caused by the natural diuretic or water-loss effects of the stimulant ingredients. In fact, "Combat the Fat" author Jeff Anderson says that drinking eight 16-oz. glasses of water per day helps to further accelerate your metabolism.
Eat More Often
Frequent meals and healthy snacks allow your metabolism to melt away unwanted body fat. Eating five or six smaller meals throughout the day also keeps energy high and prevents cravings for junk food, according to "5 Ways to Keep Your Get-Lean Diet On Track" by Eric Velazquez.
Time Your Carbs
Timing your carbohydrates can further increase your weight loss results with Lipo 6X, according to "Xtreme Lean" by Jonathan Lawson and Steve Holman. For example, take in most of your carbohydrates during the day when you are more active and your body is likely to burn them as energy. Late night carbs readily store as body fat and prevent fat burning because of inactivity.
Increase Protein
Increasing your protein intake helps you to burn more fat and retain metabolically active lean muscle tissue. "Your 10 Pound Diet Plan" by Joe Wuebben and Jim Stoppani recommends taking in 1.5 g of protein per pound of your body weight.
Working Out
Fitness author Jeff Anderson recommends doing both resistance and cardio training three to five days per week. By timing your cardio after your weights workout you can encourage your body to directly target fatty acid stores. Add extra cardio in the morning if needed and take your Lipo 6X half an hour before your workouts.
Cycle the Product
For best results, Nutrex recommends cycling Lipo 6X. This means taking the product for a cycle of eight weeks, followed by a one to two week break. Long-term use of stimulants can lead to adrenal downshift and subsequent decreases in fat burning, due to higher cortisol levels. Cortisol slows metabolism and enables fat storage, according to "The Cortisol Connection" by Shawn Talbot.
