SUPPLEMENT REVIEW: PLATINUM LABS OPTIBURN AMPED! (Thermogenic Fat Burner) INGREDIENT PROFILE: Acetyl L-Carnitine (helps transfer stored body fat into the muscle cells to be burnt for energy, as well as mental focus) CLA (encourages body not to store body fat) Raspberry Ketones (helps the fat within the cells to be broken down aka burn fat) Green tea extract (improves mental alertness and boosts metabolic rate) African Mango Extract (suppresses appetite, lowers cholesterol) Higenamine (a stimulant which increases metabolic rate/amount of calories to burn) Amperall (a strong stimulant) There are a few other ingredients such as taurine and caffeine too, but the above are the main components of OptiBurn Amped. The reason why I like this formula so much is that it has three key aspects: thermogenics to increase caloric output, fat metaboliser (Acetyl L-Carnitine) to transport body fat into muscle cells for energy and a fat ‘energizer’ (CLA) to use fat from the food we eat as energy. TASTE/MIXABILITY: Peach flavour is very nice and refreshing, particularly considering all the ingredients listed. Typically fat burners don’t taste great but OptiBurn Amped is a nice exception. Probably the best tasting fat burner I’ve had. Mixabiltiy is fine, a few grainy bits but that is to be expected and it’s nothing bad. EFFECTIVENESS: Take it on an empty stomach in the morning. Mental focus is really good. It doesn’t take long for it to occur either. I feel simply feel dialled in. In terms of energy, this product is awesome too. I am not a morning person at the best of times, but this has a great boost of energy, it gets me up and going pretty quickly. The mental clarity/euphoria is AMAZING. This is the best aspect of OptiBurn in terms of what you ‘feel’. It is on another level, I haven’t experienced it with any other supplement quite like this. Even if I’ve been in an average mood it instantly elevates me. In regards to fat loss, the universal disclaimer to ANY supplement is that it won’t do the work for you. Nutrition first, training second and then supplementation can help. That being said, I did not eat ‘perfectly’. I did not track my macros like I have previously. I upped cardio to 15 minute sessions 3-4 times per week and as a result I have burnt off a fair bit of body fat. I’ve had numerous comments that I’ve really leaned up, and honestly, it’s been without as much effort as I could or should be putting in. VALUE: 45 serves for anywhere around $62-$70 is right on point when compared to most other products on the market. In short: it is worth it. OVERALL: This would have to be my favourite fat loss supplement. It has a very good ingredient profile, it tastes nice, the effects are awesome and it’s solid value. There are a couple of other fat loss supplements I am interested to try, but I will undoubtedly use OptiBurn Amped again and strongly recommend it to anyone who has their nutrition and training in place and are looking for extra assistance to shred up for summer.
