So i had my wife on a UGL product and it was working well....decided to switch it up with TrueProtien BURN, she has been using it for about a week 3 pills morning, and a couple later in the day.

It doesnt have the stimulant effect the UGL product did...but she is UP 5 pounds?? Any ideas? Nothing has really changed with her diet and now she definatley doesnt want to take it...reviews says it works but why would she gain weight with it?

this is whats in it..

Serving Size: 3 Capsules
Servings Per Container: 45

Ingredients Per Serving (3 Capsules):
Synthetic Guggulsterones 99% Pure E&Z 20mg

Yohimbine will cause water retention. It goes away a few days after stopping the product.

Was there any effect on her measurements?

Here's a good FAQ from Lyle McDonald's forums on Yohimbine. Yohimbine FAQ (http://forums.lylemcdonald.com/showthread.php?t=4076)

I really have no idea, unless there was a lot less of it in the other product. Sorry.

which product are you referring to?

it looks like if she took 2 UGL she would get 10mg yohimbine...
the BURN 5 caps should have less 6.6mg

she also thinks she started "breaking out"...and complains of feeling nausea after eating

Sorry, bad math on my part and poor reading. :) I have nothing helpful to add, sorry. I'm surprised nobody from TRUE has piped in....

I havent heard of this happening to anyone....I love the stuff personally, and there are a few others on this board that use it and have had good feedback....None of the ingredients should cause weight gain......
Im not an expert, but i thought i would chime in...
Maybe she is allergic, or not well reacting to some of the ingredients and is holding water because of it....When i have allergic reactions i get swole up with water and put on LBs...

thanks IW...
i recommend that she keep taking 3 with 2 of the UGL caps in the morning...and 3 again later. pretty sure its just water retention so she will lose it after we stop. By the ingredients they should work (although she says she feels nothing), i think the UGL caps have more STIM effect is all.

very odd one boss. Im suprised with that she is holding water but maybe female bodies react differntly to yohmbine but i usually lose water weight with the stuff it seems but everyones differnt eh. But the TP product looks like it should be effecitive so id keep her on it and see what happens.

I have a friend (female) who is on it and she is a sponge. She retains water like no other. She has had to switch birth control pills 3-4 times because of this problem. I have had her taking BURN for about 3-4 months and she loves it, didnt gain a pound and likes the boost in energy. Sorry man, but there must be something else to blame. Think about possible small things: change of medication, food choice, sauces or spices with hidden carbs/cals, binging without you knowing?, decrease consumption of water...etc

so she was retaining water on BURN as well?

i havent really noticed any changes in diet etc...but i tell her to drink more water all the time. then again, i am not with her 24/7 either so who knows what she eats when i am not around.
