Hydroxycut
Hydroxycut is a chemical drug
product used by many to lose excess weight. Hydroxycut has been a
successful drug for weight loss. Hydroxycut has many side effects and
health risks that have been linked to the product and especially when
Ephedra was contained in the drug. Ephedra has been prohibited and
banned in the U.S. by the FDA.
Ephedra-Containing Hydroxycut Side Effects
The
Ephedra-containing Hydroxycut product was linked to many serious side
effects including high blood pressure, rapid heart rate, stroke,
seizure, and even death. However, to date, the health risks and side
effects of Hydroxycut have been reduced due to the fact that Hydroxycut
no longer has Ephedra contained in it.
Ephedra-Free Hydroxycut
The
new Hydroxycut is Ephedra free and the product is much safer. However,
even the new Hydroxycut product still has some side effects. Some of
the documented Hydroxycut side effects are increased blood pressure,
nose bleeds, blurred vision, increased heart rate, restlessness and
hyperactivity, acne outbreak, loss of appetite, headaches, dizziness,
insomnia, nausea and upset stomach. These are only some of the
Hydroxycut side effects. Not all Hydroxycut users will experience all
of the Hydroxycut side effects. Some users of Hydroxycut may experience
some side effects, and others may not experience any at all. Some
Hydroxycut users may see the side effects as just a mere inconvenience
to reap the benefits of Hydroxycut.
Hydroxycut Side Effects and Caffeine
Although
Hydroxycut no longer contains Ephedra, Hydroxycut does contain
caffeine. Caffeine within Hydroxycut can cause additional side effects.
Some of the side effects to the caffeine in Hydroxycut include the
development of varicose veins, addiction to caffeine, a bitter
aftertaste, hyperactivity, increased heart beat and the jitters.
Hydroxycut
has been very effective in weight loss; however, it is very important
for Hydroxycut users to contact their doctor if any unfavorable side
effects to using Hydroxycut occur.
