WARNING Update!

I posted about about a week ago the The U.S. Food and Drug Administration recalled some Hydroxycut products which were found to cause a number of serious liver injuries and even death.

“The FDA has received 23 reports of serious health problems ranging from jaundice and elevated liver enzymes, an indicator of potential liver injury, to liver damage requiring liver transplant. One death due to liver failure has been reported to the FDA. Other health problems reported include seizures; cardiovascular disorders; and rhabdomyolysis, a type of muscle damage that can lead to other serious health problems such as kidney failure.”

To make sure you aren’t using any of these products I wanted to list all the particular Hydroxycut supplements the FDA is warning against using.

Here is the current list:

*Hydroxycut Regular Rapid Release Caplets
*Hydroxycut Caffeine-Free Rapid Release Caplets
*Hydroxycut Hardcore Liquid Caplets
*Hydroxycut Max Liquid Caplets
*Hydroxycut Regular Drink Packets
*Hydroxycut Caffeine-Free Drink Packets
*Hydroxycut Hardcore Drink Packets (Ignition Stix)
*Hydroxycut Max Drink Packets
*Hydroxycut Liquid Shots
*Hydroxycut Hardcore RTDs (Ready-to-Drink)
*Hydroxycut Max Aqua Shed
*Hydroxycut 24
*Hydroxycut Carb Control
*Hydroxycut Natural

If you have any of these products the FDA advises bringing them back to the place where you purchased them.

Please be safe and dont take any fat-burning supplements period. There is no "miracle pill" to losing weight and keeping it off. They best way is through hard work and dedication. I am here to help if you need it or just someone to support you through your journey!
