Sci-MX Shred-X Rippedcore Review



Overview
Sci-Mx have this to say:
Shredded, ripped, ultra-lean - call it what you want. There's no arguing that burning off body fat makes you look great, feel great and perform better. SHRED-X™ is a best selling fat burner formulated with the highest quality and highest strength herbal extracts and proven fat loss micronutrients. No strange chemicals that leave you feeling drained or overly buzzy.

 

MAXIMUM STRENGTH COMPLEX: Highest potency bitter orange, guarana, green tea and cayenne pepper.
METABOLIC SUPPORT: Iodine and biotin contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism.
FAT OXIDATION: Green tea increases beta-oxidation of fatty acids leading to a reduction in body fat mass.
Serving Size
Serving Size: 2 capsules twice a day
Servings Per Container: 50 servings (25 days)

The capsules are massive so if you have a problem taking tablets then these might be an issue.
4 capsules a day is pretty standard and shouldn’t be problem.

Its good that the exact breakdown has been given, I like the inclusion of Cayenne Pepper which is a proven fat burner but not one that’s always put in. The caffeine content is fairly low for a fat burner and the rest is fairly standard.

Side Effects
I had a slight headache on day 1 but after that I was fine. Make sure to drink plenty of water though.

Price
£42.98 for a 25 day supply. Not cheap but it constantly is on offer.

Results
It works quite nicely actually. During my 25 day cycle I lost 6.5lbs of fat and (roughly) 2lbs of water weight. I didn’t have any noticeable side effects or a nasty energy crash which is unusual for a strong fat burner. There is a nice clean energy rush you get with Shred-X as well which meant I was able to use it as a preworkout. The ingredients are all proven, effective and you get high doses, maybe that’s why the capsules are so big, there is so much fat burning magic in them.  I’m not sure I’d pay £43 for it but it's nearly always on offer so that shouldn't be a problem.


The bottom line is it is an effective fat burner but it is a pricey one, if you don’t mind the price tag or you can find it on offer then you should be trying it. 7/10
